American business magazine, Forbes, says it did not include suspected fraudster, Ramon Abbas, better known as Hushpuppi, in its list of world’s billionaires.
Hushpuppi, who was arrested in June in Dubai, boasts of many luxury cars including two Rolls Royce, a Maybach, a Bentley, a Ferarri, Mercedes G Wagon among others.
His luxury vehicles have, however, been confiscated by the Dubai police.
In an article on Thursday, Forbes said Hushpuppi was not on its list of the world’s billionaires.
“Forbes does not currently include Abbas on our list of the World’s Billionaires,” it said.
The magazine, which said richest people on earth are not immune to the coronavirus, said there were over 2,095 billionaires in the world worth over $8 trillion, but Mr Abbas, who is accused of committing over N168 billion scam, was not one of them.
Before his arrest, Hushpuppi frequently posed in private jets and flaunted his wealth on social media where he has over 2.4 million followers.
He also posed in some of his photos looking into copies of Forbes magazine.
The Nigerian risks spending 20 years in jail if convicted.
