For starters, he appears to have fabricated his biographical claim to have developed the first mobile payment app in Nigeria. We contacted the app\u2019s actual creator, who called Dozy\u2019s claims \u201ca pure lie\u201d, the report reads in part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDozy claimed to have received a PhD in rural advancement from a Malaysian university in 2007. We contacted the school to verify the degree. They wrote back saying no one by his name was found in their verification system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn 2017, Dozy was arrested and faced an 8-count indictment over issuance of bad checks, according to the Nigerian Economic and Financial Crimes Commission. He later settled the case in arbitration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn 2019, Dozy claimed to have launched \u201cTingo Airlines\u201d and posted social media messages encouraging customers to \u201cfly with Tingo Airlines today\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMedia outlets later uncovered that Tingo had photoshopped its logo onto pictures of airplanes. Dozy later admitted to never owning any actual aircraft.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn April 2023, Tingo\u2019s Co-Chairman wrote a public letter to Dozy, filed with the SEC, saying he could not approve the company\u2019s annual report and felt it \u201cnecessary to recuse myself by resigning\u201d due to \u201cmany critical questions, comments and recommendations\u201d that went \u201cunanswered and unheeded\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research firm also said it observed several errors and typos in Tingo\u2019s financial statements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe strongly suspect Tingo\u2019s cash balance, which it conveniently claims is held in Nigeria, is fake. The company collected only ~12% of the interest income one would expect from its claimed cash balances,\u201d the report reads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOverall, we think Tingo is a worthless and brazen fraud that should serve as a humiliating embarrassment for all involved. We do not expect the company will be long for this world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: Thecable.ng<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hindenburg Research, a U.S. investment research firm focused on activist short-selling, has accused&nbsp;Tingo Group, a fintech company, of being an \u201cexceptionally obvious scam with completely fabricated financials\u201d.
