I'm looking for someone who can build a website. Dm me if interested
r/ghana • u/SpecialistOk4225 • 5h ago
A friend sent me this site. He's been hacked. My girlfriend and I decided to search online about it before doing anything major on there after creating said accounts, because this shit looks mighty suspicious š.
The crazy part is this site is REALLY well made. 𤣠It looks ridiculously legitimate at first glance, which is probably why people are falling for it.
My friend is also a really smart guy who's good with tech, so this isn't necessarily a case of someone being careless or āstupid.ā His discord is gone now. Scammers have plenty of ways of getting people onto these sites ā sketchy downloads, malicious links, ads, compromised accounts, etc. And since this one is presented as a betting site, people who already gamble online could be particularly easy targets.
So don't assume you're safe just because a website looks professional or because the link came from someone you trust.
If you've already visited it or entered any login details, secure your accounts immediately and enable 2-factor authentication (2FA). Check your account security/third-party access as well and remove anything you don't recognize.
Seriously, double-check before giving these sites your information. This one looks way more legitimate than it has any right to, damn.
EDIT: If your Discord was hacked, don't panic and don't trust anyone DMing you claiming they can recover it. Those are often scammers too.
If you're still logged in anywhere: immediately change your Discord password and enable 2FA. Also log out of other sessions/devices if Discord gives you that option.
Secure the email connected to Discord: change your email password and enable 2FA there too. If the hacker got access to your email, they may be able to take the Discord account back even after you recover it.
Check your email for messages from Discord about the email address or password being changed. If Discord sent you a message saying your email was changed, use the recovery/revert option in that email if it's still available.
Contact Discord Support: go through Discord's official support site and submit an account-compromise request. Explain that your account was taken over and that you believe your login credentials were compromised.
If you clicked the Fabowin link or entered your Google/Discord credentials there( Emphasis on entered/ typed the password): change the affected password immediately and review your Google/Discord account's connected apps and security activity.
Warn your friends. The hacker may be using your account to send the same scam link to your contacts. Tell people not to click anything sent from your account.
ā ļø Don't pay anyone who DMs you promising to āhack your account back.ā And don't give anyone your password, 2FA code, backup codes, or recovery codesānot even someone claiming to be Discord support.

I was talking to my white friend and she was telling me about all the fun things she did this summer parasailing bungee jumping those things and I told her that it looks nice but my house witches will not allow me.
When I explained what it meant to her she told me I was just being superstitious. I'm not religious but I've always believed in the concept of house witches and I know some people have very aggressive house witches. Am I the only non religious person who believes in this?

Iāve recently discovered that my grandfather (Fante) was part of the Twidan Clan and was āroyalty.ā
Initially, I felt shafted I was never told this but then I realized clans always get passed down through the mother. My grandfather married an American woman, they had a daughter and she had me so effectively Iām not a part of that clan.
I was considering going back to that clan to continue my grandfathers legacy and essentially ask to be adopted but the more I read about the clans in general I get a little nervous. Iām starting to think maybe my grandfather didnāt tell me 1. Because Iām not part of the clan. But 2. Maybe because of the royalty politics.
Here are some questions I have based on my discoveries:
Because Iām American, if I joined this clan to continue and help my people will I likely be extorted?
Is it typical that the abusuapanyin has land to give to her royal family?
I understand that village/town projects need funding to complete them etc. is there a way to negotiate how much I have to contribute to? I donāt want to hear my brothers and sisters should contribute 500 cedis and then I should donate 2000 cedis. I want to be treated the same.
Is it true that as royalty your door should be open to everyone? That makes me nervous. I have children and Iād be in a foreign country. I need to assess danger levels before letting random people in my home.
Ideally, if I did something like this, Iād donate thousands to my clan, assuming theyāre not corrupt.
Iād love to reconnect with long lost family, build clean water systems for my people, obtain land from the abusuapanyin, and create businesses/jobs. Primarily as an investor though. I want to look low-key/broke. I really donāt want people sniffing what I have and start relentlessly looking for handouts.
My thing is I donāt want to be TOLD , you must donate x amount of money. Thatāll make me shut down and feel used.
So my question is- are the requirements once you get in a clan, Iām thinking Takoaradi (donāt know if I spelled that right) so voluminous that itās not even worth being in?
Iām looking for guidance on what Iād like to do. Thanks. š

The practice of carrying items on our heads is very common in Ghana. I've witnessed a lot of women carry huge and heavy items on their heads with ease. But that makes me wonder, as time goes on, doesn't that affect their necks, backs, or heads in any way?

I was chatting with my cousin who lives in the disapora and she's super nice and understanding to talk to.When my dad saw her photos and noticed her piercings he ordered me not to talk to her again and my mom said I shouldn't talk about her but I still want to talk to her.
So what's the issue ?
Do other familes share the same sentiment?

I saw a video where a lady was giving a cost breakdown of a male friends call to the bar and it cost 200,000 cedis. Someone in the comments said "200,000 just to earn 4k afterwards is not a good investment" and the lady was like " what makes you think we earn 4K"
My issue here is that if the person spent 200k on their graduation who cares it's nobody's business. But why are you lying about the reality of the salaries a lot of baby lawyers earn, if you don't create awareness about the wage gap between seasoned lawyers and the younger lawyers how will things change.
Honestly I've thought about it a lot and most lawyers hide and lie about their salaries and I just can't think far, you are holding yourself and others back because if you will be honest with yourself most of you don't earn what you deserve. The wage is not equivalent to the workload. So why can't you be honest so that necessary discourse about the issue is created and a way can be paved for your earnings to increase.
Ghanaians used to love courtyard houses but for purposes of privacy, we now mostly live in single family homes. But courtyard architecture has a lot of merits, especially modern ones which consist of apartment buildings arranged around a central courtyard. It's dense meaning more housing for people (including both rich and poor since courtyard blocks have a wide diversity of housing units). There's lots of greenery in the courtyard and more community.

Iām currently a 300-level university student, and Iāve been thinking seriously about what Iām going to do with my life after graduation.
I donāt want to finish university and then become unemployed while waiting for a job. I want to start doing something now, while Iām still in school, so that by the time I graduate, I already have something going for me.
Iām studying Petroleum Engineering, and honestly, Iām not confident that Iāll immediately find a job after graduation. At the same time, I donāt want to quit because I know that having a degree could be important for me in the future, especially because one of my dreams is to study abroad.
Outside school, Iām interested in business. Iāve been thinking about importing and reselling products such as phones, laptops, modern beds, gadgets, and other products that have demand.
The problem is simple: I donāt have the money to start.
So Iām asking people who have experience in business, entrepreneurship, importing, e-commerce, or building a career from scratch:
What would you do if you were in my position?
Iām from a small village, so I donāt have access to the same opportunities and networks that people in bigger cities might have. But Iām willing to learn and put in the work.
Iām open to everyoneā¦whether youāre an entrepreneur, mentor, student who figured things out early, or simply someone who has been in a similar situation.
Iām looking for direction. I want to know what I can start doing today that could put me in a much better position 2ā5 years from now.
Any honest advice, personal experience, or guidance would mean a lot.

As a black American following his lineage and researching his family tree. I found that my great grandfather had three wives. I hear that today this is not so much a thing but then other times I hear that it is still widely practived. As native Ghanians in this group, is polygamy still common ? if so, in what area of the country? and are the people involved in this type of marriage typically Muslim or can it be anyone?
If it's not common around what time frame did this change?

I honestly want to ask something because this is something I've been noticing for some years now.
When I was a kid, I rarely saw people with this condition. But now, especially in different communities around Ghana, I see people with severely swollen legs quite often. Men, women, young women and even people in their early 30s or late 30s.
From what I know, people call it elephantiasis, but I honestly don't really understand what causes it. Is it something people catch? Is it caused by mosquitoes, infections, lifestyle, or something else?
What worries me is how serious it can become. Some of the people affected can barely move around normally. Their legs become so swollen that it looks extremely difficult and painful to live with.
Is this actually becoming more common, or maybe I'm just noticing it more now?
And why don't we hear more about prevention or treatment? If anyone here has medical knowledge or knows someone working in healthcare, please explain. I genuinely think this is something we should be talking about more.

Hello!! I'm not too sure if this is an appropriate post, but recently I've been researching fire god/goddesses from all around the world! I've been trying to find information of Okraman online, but all I've got is an empty Wikipedia page and a translation of his name!! I'd like to know more about him and his history ā who is he? What does he do? How did he become a deity? What are his powers? Why is he represented as a dog? Ect ect. I'd love to know all I can about him because I'm curious! I'm so sorry if this is irrelevant to this sub, but I wasn't sure where else to go.
If anyone could provide links or resources to learn more about the Akan religion, and more specifically Okraman, I'd love if you could share them! Thank you š«¶

Please I must understand. A relative of my partner is living with us. She has these packets of this Grace powder stuff from some church thing back in Ghana. I will make no judgements on peoples beliefs but please, I have found packets alongside an enema bottle in the bathroom she uses. Do women put this inside of their anus? What in Godās name does it mean? What is happening? I am frightened.

So I was on a KLM flight to Ghana and ended up sitting next to a man Iād say is in his late 30s.
At some point I asked him what had brought him to Ghana. He was pretty vague and didnāt give me much detail.
Before he told me what he actually does, we had already been talking about immigration rules, and eventually the conversation moved on to visas.
I mentioned that my parents had tried to get visa appointments for a Schengen visa in certain countries (I even listed them š)but couldnāt find any. I also told him that I knew people who had apparently managed to get appointments through certain people other than the embassy .
Then later in the conversation, he casually tells me that heās investigating corruption within the EU visa application/appointment system and that heās a journalist .
I was like⦠ei šļøššļø
Apparently, heās been investigating this across African countries for over two years, and hes now looking specifically into Ghana.
Iām not entirely convinced about the āfirst time in Ghanaā part though, because he already knew various places around Accra, so Iām pretty sure he had been here before.
And from what he told me, he actually has conversations with some of the agents involved in arranging these appointments. I wasnāt completely clear on whether some of them work with him directly or whether he was communicating with them as part of the investigation, so I donāt want to misrepresent that part.

I keep seeing people online talk about keeping your Ghanaian-ness. I never looked much into the posts but I thought it was like 'we gotta keep our culture alive' or something similar. Then yesterday I finally decided to look into the trend and it feels iffy to me.
Don't get me wrong, I'm aware of the major beef between Ghana and Nigeria. Sometimes they're just jokes but their are time it becomes severe. But I think the trend is hypocritical that it's only targeted towards Nigeria.
As humans, we tend to adopt lingo and integrate them into our everyday life. I don't know much examples but panoo is from the word pao, a Portuguese word for bread. And we keep talking about Ghanaian-ness when hair was once part of our culture but due to colonialism we think of our natural hair as dirty, a waste of time, ghetto and ugly.
(Pervious statement before editing: 'And we keep talking about Ghanaian-ness when majority of our youth can't speak their mother tongue (that isn't twi). Most of us don't know much about cultural traditions or rites of passage'. I contradicted myself with this statement so I changed it. Thanks to the Reddit user who pointed it out)
Maybe I don't know much on the topic that's why it feels that way for me. Please educate me properly in the comments.
Note: The reason I call it iffy and hypocritical is because I've been on the Nigerian side of being isolated and bullied despite being fully Ghanaian myself, I was just born and raised their for a quarter of my life. I just happened to adopt mannerisms for there and the accent.
