“The Comptroller-General does not own or operate a Facebook account neither has he contracted any person or persons to operate one on his behalf.”

An official statement signed by Chief Superintendent Michael Amoako-Atta, the Head of Public Affairs advised the public not to deal with “the faceless people behind that account on Facebook or any other social media account.”

The statement said: “Anyone who transacts business with these persons does so at his or her own risk.”
