SOS Limited (SOS) Investigation:
The investigation concerns SOS’s claims regarding its cryptocurrency mining assets.
Earlier this year, SOS released a wave of press releases touting its purported entry into the bitcoin mining business. For example, on Jan. 21, 2021, SOS claimed to have purchased over 15,000 mining rigs from HY International Group New York (“HY”) for $20 M, and a month later, claimed that 5,000 mining rigs had already gone live. SOS’s cryptocurrency promotion was well-received, as its shares skyrocketed 600%.
But on Feb. 26, 2021, Hindenburg Research and Culper Research released scathing commentary on SOS, claiming that SOS was an intricate “pump and dump” scheme that used fake addresses and doctored photos of crypto miners to create an illusion of success. The analysts pointed out that the company’s SEC filings, for instance, listed a hotel room as the firm’s headquarters. The analysts also questioned whether SOS had actually purchased the claimed mining rigs, as the firm SOS purportedly bought the mining rigs from was a fake shell company. Most damaging, the analysts alleged that the photos SOS had published of their “mining rigs” were phony. Culper noted that the photographed SOS “miners” weren’t the A10 Pros the company claimed to own. Instead, they were pictures of Avalon’s A1066 miners. Hindenburg further found the original images from SOS’s site belonged to a legitimate rival RHY.
In response, on Mar. 9, 2021 SOS admitted that rig seller HY was formed to preserve the “confidentiality” of a Chinese seller of used mining rigs.
Then, on Mar. 12, 2021 Culper published a follow-up report entitled “SOS Ltd (SOS): Further Evidence of Fraud via Undisclosed Related Party Transactions,” claiming that SOS board member Wenbin Wu is directly linked to HY and arguing that SOS’s supposed desire for “‘confidentiality'” is in fact a thinly-veiled excuse for fraud via an undisclosed related party transaction.”
“We’re focused on investors’ losses and whether SOS’ purported entry into crypto mining is simply a false promotion scheme,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
