When the head of the State Tax Service Serhiy Verlanov and the head of the State Fiscal Service Maksym Nefyodov pulled off a gigantic car scam
Journalist Yevhen Plinsky more thoroughly investigated the story of clothing smuggling in cars from the United States belonging to Maksym Nefyodov's relative, Andriy Dulik. And he did it not for nothing.
This was reported on the Telegram channel Dubinsky.pro.
Bad news for all customers of the company "Lyube Auto". The cars you bought this year are to be confiscated from you because you are not their owners, even though you honestly bought them.
It turns out that the entire business of the largest U.S.-car seller in Western Ukraine, the company "Lyube Auto", is a cover for a VAT laundering scheme by Vasyl Kostyuk through the company "Motolayk".
The essence of the scheme is that all cars you order in Lyube Auto salons are documented as being imported into Ukraine by the company "Motolayk", which does not sell these cars to anyone. It physically transfers them to Lyube Auto's clients, after which, under fake purchase agreements, Lyube Auto hands them over to you, and you register them. Without having the right to.
Because on paper all cars remain the property of the company "Motolayk", there are 1098 units.
This allows "Motolayk" to obtain the right to reclaim VAT from the customs clearance of these cars. And to this day, the amount of the tax credit for these cars claimed by "Motolayk" is more than 51 million hryvnias.
And neither the tax service nor the customs service are interested in how these companies operate. They are uninterested for a clear reason: at the heart of this scheme stand Maksym Nefyodov, the head of the customs, and, as it turned out, Serhiy Verlanov, the head of the tax service. So why do ordinary euro-plate car owners face inflated car values at the customs, while for Maksym’s relative they are undervalued?
