Chile-based Ghanaian Mohammed Ali shared why he was banned from travelling to the US for life in a chat on Daily Hustle Worldwide.
Mohammed Ali disclosed that he was deported from America three times for fraudulent activities and spent two years in jail each time he was arrested. Speaking with DJ Nyaami, Mohammed mentioned that he stayed in Lebanon for years, where he sold fake UN documents to migrants travelling to the US.
“I became wanted in Lebanon after the UN officials found so I had to flee from Lebanon to Costa Rica. I boarded a bus from Costa Rica to Mexico and crossed the border to the US. I stayed in New York for 15 years and had some issues with the police.
I was involved in this online shopping fraud while working on the side. They released me the first time but arrested me again for using someone’s social security. I was deported.”
Mohammed passed through Mexico again after six months in Ghana. He spent eight months in America and was deported the second time. Eventually, he accepted a friend’s invitation to Chile but could not stay.
“There were very few Blacks in Chile, so I left for Peru after two weeks. I started ‘pushing’ Somalians and Ethiopians to the US, but they mentioned my name after they arrived. I became wanted by the FBI, and the Peru police tipped me off.
I fled again to Ecuador and then the US for the third time. US police arrested and slapped me with a reentry charge, but I didn’t fight it. They deported me back to Ghana and got a visa back to Chile,” Mr Ali recounted.
After his third arrest, Mohammed was banned for life. He settled in Chile 16 years ago and started a business there because he “had no other option.” Mohammed expressed regrets for the fraudulent activities he engaged in.
