As a result of a successful operation by detectives of the territorial department of the Bureau of Economic Security (BEB) in the Odessa region, the operation of a cash transfer center, which turned out to be a center for tax minimization, was terminated.
The pre-trial investigation established that a group of individuals registered a number of enterprises in Odessa and the region, which were subsequently used to provide services to minimize taxes and cash funds, in particular those received as budget VAT refunds.
As a result of the searches of the office premises, detectives seized 107 seals of enterprises with signs of fictitiousness, including offshore companies, cash in national currency, bank cards, flash drives, hardware for cryptographic information protection, hard and optical disks, and documents confirming the engagement in illegal activities. In total, the estimated value of the seized items is almost UAH 1 million.
