English term or phrase: pocket no dry
The fetish priestess, whose television advertisement allegedly ‘influenced’ two Kasoa teenagers in the Central Region to take the life of an 11-year-old boy last week, has admitted that the suspects contacted their shrine to undergo money rituals that would make them become instant billionaires.

Charity Mensah, who was arrested on Wednesday by the police at her shrine near Amanase in the Ayensuano District in the Eastern Region over a possible role she might have played in the gruesome killing of Ishmael Mensah Adballah, told police interrogators that the teenagers called her on phone to make enquiries about a product they have been advertising called “Pocket no dry”, which is a charm supposedly making people perpetually wealthy.

chamariz de dinheiro


Explanation:
O texto se refere a um "produto", portanto penso que a tradução deve se adequar a esse termo. "Chamariz de dinheiro" pode ser uma boa opção, pois aparece também como uma simpatia para atrair dinheiro.

Essa poderosa simpatia para chamar dinheiro deve ser realizada às segundas-feiras. Para ter uma graninha extra, pegue um guardanapo branco e enrole nele duas colheres de arroz cozido e três galinhos de arruda. Coloque o ritual na geladeira e o mantenha lá por três dias. Refaça essa simpatia todas as segundas-feiras do mês e enterre a mistura em locais bem floridos, cada vez que encerrar o processo. -- In "Simpatias poderosas para chamar dinheiro" https://www.terra.com.br/vida-e-estilo/horoscopo/simpatias-p...

PS; O termo "simpatia" pode ser uma boa tradução para "charm".

dinheiro no bolso


Explanation:
