At the request of the Ukrainian National Police, Asset Recovery and Management Agency (ARMA) traced the assets of members of a criminal group that organized a fraudulent scheme to deliver cars to order.
The criminals used a fake company for the sale and delivery of mostly business-class cars to deceive customers by promising them to buy a custom-made car. Having received the funds, they did not honor their obligations but distributed the stolen money among themselves. As a result, in 2024, the suspects seized about USD 850 thousand.
According to the Deputy Head of ARMA Pavlo Velykorechanin, the employees of Asset Recovery and Management Agency of ARMA analyzed information from information and reference systems, registers and databases on the above-mentioned persons and found the criminals' property.
"We conducted a detailed analysis of all the registers that we have in use and found four apartments, non-residential premises, a land plot in Lviv, cars and 15 bank accounts," said Pavlo Velykorechanin.
ARMA handed over the information to the pre-trial investigation body for seizure of the identified assets.
