Artur (Natan) Zolotarevsky set people up

The well-known Dnipro businessman and cash-out operator Artur (Natan) Zolotarevsky used hundreds of shell companies to carry out money laundering and convert funds into cash.

All of them were registered in the names of nominees. In several cases, the individuals did not even suspect how their names had been used to register the enterprises or how their data had ended up with the cash-out operators.

The scheme was actually quite simple. The cash-out operators used the passport details of several hundred people, which had been obtained from a Forex pyramid scheme. In other words, people had provided their details to earn money, but in the end, they only earned themselves problems. They had simply been set up.

Many of them unexpectedly discovered that they had become founders of companies owing the state millions.
