Dozy Mmobuosi, the founder and CEO of Tingo Mobile has been accused by US Regulators of running a "staggering fraud."
Tingo Mobile claimed to provide mobile phones to rural farmers in Nigeria and build a fintech super app. It quickly grew into a multibillion-dollar empire with a listing on New York’s Nasdaq stock exchange.
Dr Dozy, the London-based tycoon attempted to buy the Premier League football team Sheffield United but struggled to prove his financial resources.
It turns out that Mmobuosi’s businesses, as they were commonly understood, may never have existed.
The SEC has accused the Nigerian businessman Mmobuosi Odogwu Banye - of perpetrating an ongoing fraud of “staggering” proportions.

The way your left hand moves reminds me of the tip of a cat's tail.
Bossy the bozo, just another crook that learned financial and tech lingo to believe their own bs.
Take a look at William storey - the bloke that sponsored haas f1 with his non existent energy drink
There seems to be a suprascammeer from Africa..
It's called elon musk. ( capital destructor by a thousand noses )
Have a happily droll new year, cheers from bustling Canberra Patrick.

Wait, was he a Forbes person of the year? If so then he must be guilty. allegedly.
Lmao it's true
@@muhdiversity7409 Either guilty of fraud or a junior banker. As Patrick put it in an older video, if you're on Forbes 30 under 30 and you're not coming back from picking up your boss's coffee, you need to start booking your travel to a non-extradition country.

The Nigerian CEO scam. A new twist on a old classic.
This is what we live for 😂
Nigerian prince scam eat your heart out.
LOL
So, the old Nigerian prince scam is a 419. What number would you assign to this scam? I'd say 421, for obvious reasons.
Please keep your prejudice. Nigeria has a lot of legitimate businesses making the most impact across Africa. Blame your western media who do not cover real African companies doing real stuff but featuring fraudulent quick cash out schemes. That is your problem not ours. Tell your western faux journalists to learn how to do their jobs. Also no one refers to SBF scam as the ‘American CEO scam’ 🙄🙄 Cheers.
Watching Itchy Boots (Noraly from the Netherlands) riding her motorcycle from Morocco down the Atlantic coast of Africa to Nigeria, Cameroon, and beyond. It turns out that Cameroon just southeast of Nigeria actually has a sitting king descended from a long line of kings. And he hasn't tried to scam anyone. In fact he just opened a new museum based in part of his palace.
The most surprising part of this story is that Softbank was not investing into Tingo.
They weren't crazy enough for Softbank
actually, that is because they are already on the deal since a while, they even already paid the shipping fee for the 400 millions in gold bars.
Rip Credit Suisse, they would have been elbow deep in this
hahaha agree
@@lo2740😂
Tingo definitely has the $400 million in assets, but it is being held in gold bars by a Nigerian prince who emailed me asking for help getting it out of the country. We're on it.
Or $400 million in Zimbabwe currency.
Yooo 😂
Brilliant! Too good... you are indeed a scallywag sir...
😂😂😂
But first you mist send $4,000 to confirm your routing number. Then meet the container ship in the port next month.
At this point, I’m starting to believe Forbes is part of the “fake it ‘til you make it” train
House of cards / without the cards 🤪🙉
It's not doing the crime which is wrong -- it's getting caught which is wrong.
I stopped watching Forbes' CZcams channel when it became apparent that they had a decidedly rightwing slant. This just puts an exclamation mark on my conclusion.
@@stefanfrankel8157Realistically they're in the business of selling capitalism and it's accoutrements, it would be strange if they didn't lean right.
@@stefanfrankel8157 LOL! Integrated Whale Media Investments a chinese company owns Forbes.
As a Nigerian, I get so pissed at this con men that weaponize racism as a defense for their fraudulent behavior. “Perhaps if you were not Nigerian…”, how about perhaps if you had a legitimate business that could lead you to success, you would not meet roadblocks. Instead you chose to exhibit behaviors that keep us in suspicion in perpetuity. Not that I blame him alone, I wonder how hard it can be for wealthy investors to do their due diligence. You can go to Safari in Africa but you can’t pop down to Lagos for a quick meeting? ridiculous
Many international companies have tried doing business in Nigeria.
Most eventually face aggressive government regulation.
Business leaders learn from the mistakes others make.
Its a shame because Nigeria has massive potential.
It's philosophy.
Their entire worldview is skewed to nonsense.
Wealth comes from productivity. But "success" can cone from fraud up to a point.
I love you brother, I also know many people from nigeria at work who are honest and they always get mad when see media talking about Nigerian schemes.
I was going to point out you are victim blaming - but on a second thought I agree completely.
Anyone who lost money on their nigerian investments, is clearly too stupid to have a disposable income.
Well said!
Nigerian media houses have been calling out this scam for years! Former employees even made twitter threads about it, it was a running joke on Nigerian twitter
Anybody that fell for this simply did not do their due diligence
Thank you o
I think the question is:
How did they ever get let onto the NASDAQ in the first place?
@kogiman
They didn't. They could not list directly, which is why they used a reverse merger.
@@sblijheid
Still.
How could they have been allowed to.
Reverse or not.
They got a ticker; didn't they?
I actually thought he was going to quote @DavidHundeyin, who had done this story some time back.
@@kogiman those reverse merger/spac things are definitely a loophole in what the SEC is specifically trying to prevent with normal stock listings. hopefully these types of shady listing tricks get shut down at some point.
I about crapped myself when he was talking about the claimed balance of $461 million vs the actual balance of $50: "...that would usually be considered a substantial discrepancy." AHAHAHAHHAH
He mentioned some regulatory disclosure documents were missing a zero off some figures... thats where seven of them went 😂
Lol me too
😂😂😂😂😂
Only "usually" considered but obviously not considered at all if an Israeli accounting company!
You're not looking at the bigger picture😂
How do I pull this off?
I've got the basics I've got £50 quid in the bank 😂
A Nigerian scam? No way.
Nigerian scammers sold an airport that never existed… 😂
Explaining events with silly stereotypes is a sign of a lack of intelligence.

Only off of a sales pitch with no due diligence. These investors are brain dead I swear.

If Hindenburg Research drops a paper on your Business, you know you’re in trouble. Shout out to Hindenburg for always bringing Scammy business to light.
Another scalp for their trophy wall.
And Finacial Times right a article on your business know you are in trouble
It was a pretty easy job. It was too obvious.
I've seen their big office in Accra Ghana and it's always empty or closed.
Short sellers do incredible research because their win depends on the truthfulness of the research.
Sure, it can be said that Hindenburg Research only does it because they have a financial incentive to as a shortselling firm, but as long as it does good, then they can target whatever scummy business they want.
You could say this whole scenario has been quite a doozy
Lmao
I audibly cackled. 😂
As basil brush used to say boom boom 💥💥
You got me good I laughed several times throughout the video but this comment right here made me guffaw
😂
Why isn't anyone asking the real question: how did DeLoitte sign off on the financials? I didn't hear mention of any legitimate business whatsoever. So what did they audit?
I doubt Deloitte had any business dealings with Tingo. It is probably just another forgery.
The money going into their pockets was real enough
@@robsomethin4415 How do you know they performed an audit or were paid?
No one on this thread will shut up about that. But in any case, that's a matter for the PCAOB
Hardly surprising. These accounting firms have zero morals and are quick to write up favourable reports for the right fee.
This man will look us in the eye and give 10 minutes of well put together financial news/info and then just drop a huge sarcasm bomb and carry on like it didn't happen😂😂😂
"And you're NOT meant to do that" re: long-term deliberate fraud--man, I misread that whole situation so, so badly before he clarified it for me :D
It’s the greatest

And that is Art
@@joelrasdall7662
Dozy ; You are NOT meant to do that? I didn't know 😂

Never underestimate the son of a deceased Nigerian King.
honestly it is impressive to the degree in which the man was able to sell the lie
Nigeria... no thanks.
The "business idea" is interesting but he got greedy. The way he went about his listing is "impressive". Israel, Thailand, China, US. Damn!!!
Tells you a lot about society

The nerve of him to play the race card 🤦🏾♀️
when you're put into a corner, you swing with anything 😅
His nerve is the most impressive thing about him! 😂
The worst part is there are probably thousands of people in his country with good ideas and entrepreneurial spirit who will never get a chance to have their business come to fruition. This man squandered what few will ever have.
Playing the race card on this is so horrendous and deceitful.
Yes, there's at least 100 more Nigerian princes who never got the opportunity to hit the big time
Yeah, not so much. There’s a reason it’s a dumpster fire despite lots of oil.
@JohnSmith-op7ls go invest in the nigeria index etf then if you're so "sure". Just ignore the past returns.
eh Nigeria doesn't have a great rep
Imagine being outsmarted by a football team, props to their finances manager, he does deserve it's title of finances expert unlike the rest.
They probably asked the hard questions: Like "can you show us proof of your financial resources?". One has to wonder what exactly Deloitte has done during their audit.

Dr Dozy's scam proves once again that greed supersedes caution at all levels.
Greed is the root of all evil, not money _per se._

Surprised they didn't announce Tingo AI yet.
Exactly 💯😂
AI is the new scam slogan.
When you hear Dubai and Nigeria in one sentence, that’s a red flag.
Is that an app to have Nigerian scams directly on your smartphone? This was a great idea.
None of this would have happened if Deloitte did their job. Shame.
Unbelievable!!!
Incompetence at the HIGHEST level. He knew his crap wouldn’t fly with the Nigerian branch of Deloitte, hence him using the Israeli branch.
@@devJOE-Manthis does raise the question why he intuitively knew that the Israeli office would be much more amenable to fraud...
The auditor prolly got a fat paycheck that time
Everyone knows that if you want a real in depth financial audit of a company you hire the British Football League, not Deloitte.
What an age of rampant fraud and idiocy we live in.
tRump 2024 and forever
This is a perfect example of why, although disliked by most, short sellers are needed. Just like periodic recessions are necessary to weed out uncomperive businesses and keep the economy heallthy, short sellers are needed to off the fraudlent and zombie companies.
The only problem I have with short selling is when proof of fraud is kept private while short positions are established, only to drop the bomb. I agree with research and speculation based upon publicly available data.
@@PsRohrbaugh informational symetry ... Aah, that would be a dream.
And of course he's got a Forbes cover!
😂🤣😂
Looks like the Nigerian prince has really moved up in the world of digital money transfers.
😂😂😂
So crazy! Playing the race card!
Any CEO from Nigeria that described a company to me the way he did would instantly raise a massive red flag with me. If you cannot explain your business in 60 seconds or less then there is a problem.
I don't need the description. The financials don't make sense. Not even US agricultural companies make that kind of money. $400 mln for a startup in a low income country? No way!
Whoever bought their shares deserves what they got.
@@sblijheid The biggest us agriculture company makes 32 billion a year in revenue vs the 400 million he claimed in revenue. 400 million isn't that much money, I don't know what is realistic for Nigeria though.
Nigeria is not US, agricultural products are very cheap. Most farmers don't have account or access to financial services. The real farmers are not even aware of this discussion because they don't exist online. I have first hand experience on it
I remember my father always telling me "son, if you ever have an opportunity to invest in an company that can make a quarterly commission that is 5x the total revenue of their entire customer base, you should jump right in, especially if it's run by a Nigerian prince *cough* sorry I meant doctor." Long story short I am now living under a bridge.
Well my father told me same except a certain Elizabeth Holmes etc
😂😂😂
The fact that someone could fail a fit and proper person test for English football is pretty impressive. The level of problems must have been ridiculous. They've let people buy clubs for £1 when they don't even have that £1. If investors couldn't spot that level of issue then that's incredibly worrying.
You won't believe the shit investor's buy, literally people bought a link for a picture with weird apes and it was all the rage.
@@HypermarketCommodity Amen to your comment ... enough said. 👍👍 What's that age-old saying? .... A fool and his money are soon parted.
This sounds like serious problems Dozy is dealing with but I do have a question: Did he ever dress as a sultry Wood Nymph?
Sultry Wood Nymphs as all of us know take security REALLY seriously!
😭😭😭😭 Yes. We need answers to questions that really matter
And they dont really need to know any math to do it too!
This is just a great example of how financial regulators regularly just sign off on anything reported and shuffle it down the line. It seems like more often than not it's whistleblowers or activist short sellers exposing these companies.
Or the companies collapse, and _then_ the regulators leap into action.
It's not the financial regulators that are at fault here, if anyone's to blame, it's the auditors.
its all about ESG, financial inclusion for rural africans is just to good to not invest in right....
@@BobfromSydney they both share in the blame as the regulators are the ones who allow very vague BS laws to facilitate this but you are correct it's the auditors who let the most stuff slip by unchecked. At the end of the day it's on the company committing the fraud but it's crazy we have regulators and auditors who don't actually live up to the job title.
It's called 'regulatory capture', ie, they're in on the scam and get rewarded for the part they played in deceiving the public. Sophisticated corruption.
not gonna lie, when i see stories like these, it reminds me not to feel too badly about myself for being in my mid 20s and still working out how to bring in good, legit, consistent money off my skills and talents. like if people are doing all of this to SCAM, that lets me know that building a good life for yourself is no cake walk when you're coming from a working class background, and that it takes consistency, commitment, dedication and TIME. jeez this is nuts
Keep going 💪 honesty pays
Don't stop pursuing your goals👍✨✨👍✨
The Hindenberg report was absolutely hilarious to read when it came out last year, I can’t believe it took as long as it has to finally end this!!
Playing the racist card to argue why his company is more worth, love it!
The race card is only effective because racism exists.
He's shameless so of course he plays every card.
Is your specific problem that he played it or the card exists?
That's what you get for pandering
BLM proved that woke branded scams are very effective and get little scrutiny once you start calling anyone criticising you rayciss
Kudos for the Nigerian tax investigators and others who were first to out this scammer!
Pretty ironic considering he added fuel to the fire for why people shouldn't do business wit Africans 🤦
The gold medal for scam goes to Nigeria .
I am surprised that I can still be surprised at how poorly investors research companies before putting them money.
I agree but I’m guilty. Also to a fake agro company in Nigeria 😮😢 I still can’t believe it too! The company vanished off the face of the earth and took my money with them!
My dream would be Dozys audiobook with Patrick’s narration
Geez I'm having cold sweats and can't sleep at night if I think I didn't pay a minor bill on time... how the hell are these scammers able to live with themselves?? 🙃
Scrupulosity, honesty, and high social trust, especially on a consistent basis, is in fact not a feature of the vast majority of people on earth, and as a group tendency only exists in very specific nations and peoples.
Very few scammers are women, so if you are a man, this would be hypocritical. If you don't think men are the most unscrupulous group of people alive, then you are lying@@Laotzu.Goldbug
The real story here for me is the failure of Deloitte. " You had one job, man. ONE job". 🤦
Most audits are being performed remotely. This scam wouldn’t have been possible if auditors properly performed their job. Speaking as a former auditor here
Is it likely than that that's why he chose the Israeli office, since the Nigerian one would have had a much stronger likelihood of actually coming down in person?
That's not likely - it's definite, but not the slightest excuse for the auditors.
I just looked it up: Deloitte Nigeria states it has 600 employees and was originally founded in 1952.

Let's overlook the rhyming name Dozy "Mbozy" and instead talk about the fact that tingo is an Easter Island word for someone who takes everything from someone's house by borrowing them and never returning them. You can read about this in the book The Meaning of Tingo: And Other Extraordinary Words from Around the World by Adam Jacot de Boinod. A fun read.
Fun fact about Easter Island...nobody there celebrates Easter. Same for the Virgin Islands...nobody there celebrates Easter, either.
Hang on, Cleverly's cousin is a lawyer specialising in White Collar Crime.......and became Dr Dozy's Company President? Disbar him!
Oh the irony of Dozy whining that he's not trusted because he's black/African while adding another huge brick to that wall!

Rio Ferdinand on the telly in the background, waiting for an interview. Absolutely no problem there, every genuine tech genius needs a thick centre back.
I think there is a large body of work in looking at companies that fail as frauds and then investigating the auditing firm that had just previously given the company books the gold stamp of approval. Some of the auditors really need to have their ears pinned back.
The level of fraud doesn’t concern me quite as much as how easy it was to perpetrate. How many other fraudsters, of varying degrees, are there on any given exchange?
Do investors not do any due diligence at all? How hard is it to look up a patent or make a phone call or pay some Nigerian local to take a video?

I'm a Black USian and often chat with African immigrants to the States in the course of my job. The ones from Nigeria always tell me to stay away because of scams 😂. I will definitely go to Ghana but I hope the coalitions over there can figure out how to reign in stuff like this from getting so big.
It's probably impossibly obvious to people from the UK and Ireland but I was so delighted when I saw the Mitchell and Webb reference
Exceptional analysis as always, Patrick. Nobody asked why they hadn’t met any farmers? Why a Nigerian startup was being audited by an Israeli firm when every major global auditor has offices in Nigeria and broadly in Africa? Why the UK Home Secretary’s cousin (a barrister who focuses in white collar crime, conveniently) was somehow the chairman of a company whose operations he could never explain? More people were in on this fraud than will be prosecuted.
Wow, it’s amazing that he got away with it for so long. Just a story teller that BS his way riches, just wow. Bad but impressive, I wonder how many more similar to him are out there.
Hundreds that are smart enough to keep their mouths shut and not attract scrutiny, I'd wager.
More than anyone would be comfortable admitting, and today's financial/economic sectors encourage grifters to try their hand.
A lot. But the smarter ones keep quiet.
The social pressures of international liberalism, especially in places like the US and the UK, strongly discouraged criticism of people like him with the risk of strong censure or worse. Add in the corrupt governmental connections, and the obvious complicity of Deloitte israel, it's clear that this is not someone who "got away with it" so much as the exact type of person that the System™ actively promotes.
A Nigerian running a complicated scam operation? The shock nearly killed me!
