Nana Appiah Mensah (NAM 1), founder of the defunct Menzgold Company Ltd., has asked customers whose particulars couldn’t be validated recently to pay GHC 650 to be verified.
According to Menzgold, 60% of customers failed the validation test, per a statement issued on August 8.
In the statement, the company said that the customers’ claims were characterised by several irregularities and hence couldn’t qualify for payment.
However, in a new statement dated August 18, the company is now asking the holders of the unvalidated claims to pay GhC650 each for a card to activate verification processes.
“We urge all Customers who believe they have genuine indebted transactions to check their transactions status by acquiring the Menzgold Digital Verification Access Card at GHC 650 each from any authorized Payboy agent to verify their transactions validation status from the 10th August 2023 to 14th September 2023, and to upload original coloured copies of their transactions supporting documents,” yesterday’s statement read.
Following the announcement, social media users have expressed doubt in the ability of NAM 1 to honour its customers obligations, alleging potential fraud.
Menzgold had fixed October 20, 2023, for the commencement of payment of validated claims, according to an earlier statement.
