Born Joseph Kwadwo Badu Boateng on 28th August, 1988, widely known as Dada Joe Remix, is a Ghanaian businessman and social media personality. He gained notoriety in Accra for his lavish and extravagant lifestyle, which he frequently flaunted on social media.

Originally from northern Ghana Dada Joe’s main investment is real estate development. His ostentatious displays of wealth often went viral, featuring luxury cars such as a Bentley, G‑Wagon, Rolls-Royce and a Lamborghini Urus.

Dada Joe is also known for sponsoring social media sensation Shatta Bandle, bankrolling his flashy display of wealth.

Net Worth:

Dada Joe Remix has an estimated net worth of $20 million.

From vibrant beginnings in Northern Ghana and building a glamorous reputation through real estate and lavish gift-aways, Dada Joe Remix emerged as one of Ghana’s top social media influencers supporting internet stars including singer Shatta Wale. Yet, recent legal issues—marked by his arrest, extradition, and fraud charges in the U.S.—unveil a surprising turn in his public image.

In May 2025, Dada Joe Remix was arrested by the FBI alongside Ghana’s EOCO, in connection with alleged dating fraud targeting elderly victims in the U.S.

Dada Joe and his accomplices were formally charged on June 18, 2025 in Arizona with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering, accused of orchestrating a decade-long transnational fraud scheme. Extradited to the U.S. and currently facing prosecution as part of a broader initiative to target elderly.

They reportedly deceived vulnerable elderly individuals into thinking they had received valuable inheritances, including gold and jewelry.

To enable the release of these supposed inheritances, victims were persuaded to pay imaginary taxes and fees, a strategy that took advantage of their trust.

The accusations against Boateng and his alleged accomplices are part of a larger federal effort aimed at dismantling international fraud schemes that specifically target senior citizens.

This crackdown was announced alongside World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, highlighting the U.S. Department of Justice’s dedication to protecting the rights and welfare of elderly Americans.

Court images: Photos of him in a prison jumpsuit were widely circulated in Ghanaian and international media.

Current status: As of late 2025, Boateng is in the United States, awaiting trial and facing legal consequences for the fraud allegations.

Criminal penalty: The potential penalty for each of these charges is a maximum of 20 years in prison.
