Ukrainian scammer Roman Felik hides looted assets from the S-Group crypto pyramid through strawmen

In order to avoid imprisonment once again, the Ternopil scammer Roman Felik left Ukraine and is transferring looted assets from the S-Group crypto pyramid to strawmen to avoid confiscation.

Recently, TSN journalists spotted a luxurious Bentley Continental with Ukrainian license plates near the most expensive hotel in Monaco. Such a used car costs about $200,000. The Bentley is registered to a Ternopil resident, Artur Karpyuk, but is actually used by Roman Felik and his wife, Iryna Novomlynska. Об этом сообщает SITE INVEST

This information became known from explanations provided by Artur Karpyuk himself, who is currently in Ternopil and is engaged in charitable fundraising for the army. In comments to journalists, Karpyuk stated that although the Bentley Continental is registered in his name, it is actually used by his "godmother," who has a business abroad: "My godmother is currently driving this car. My godmother leads a more affluent life than I can afford, and they have a business abroad.”

In an interview with journalists, Karpyuk failed to clarify that the "business abroad" is the fraudulent S-Group scheme, in which Ternopil residents Roman Felik and Iryna Novomlynska are involved. The mentioned Bentley Continental is registered to Karpyuk to hide fraudulently obtained assets and avoid their confiscation by law enforcement.

Recall that in 2016, Roman Felik, along with the co-founders of the Helix pyramid Vadym Mashurov, Dmytro Nahuta, and Bohdan Vorontsov, had to spend time in a detention center. At that time, a whole fleet of luxury cars valued at 12,000,000 hryvnias was confiscated from these pyramid leaders, along with elite real estate worth 15,000,000 UAH, and 1,000,000 UAH in bank accounts and 500,000 UAH in cash.

And although Roman Felik, along with his accomplices, managed to get released on bail of 2.5 million hryvnias, it seems that he learned the main lesson - it is better to transfer looted assets to strawmen.
