For the past decade, a well-organized fraud group led by the “black widow” Halyna Hanyak has been operating in the Western regions of Ukraine.
This is reported by the publication 360ua.news.
During its existence, members of the “Black Widow” criminal organization have enriched themselves by millions of dollars through fraudulent schemes, and have acquired real estate and assets. Representatives of Lviv crime and some dishonest local notaries and law enforcement officers help the Black Widow continue its illegal activities.
The leader of the Black Widow UPU is a local “businesswoman” who is mostly known in Ivano-Frankivsk as Halyna Hanyak. In reality, Hanna has changed her last names and first names several times.
Journalists of our publication managed to find the following names of the “Black Widow”, which were used in various fraudulent schemes: Master Halyna Mykolayivna, Smelnytska Halyna Mykolayivna, Hanyak Halyna Mykolayivna, Vaisman Anna Mykolayivna.
According to available information, the well-known fraudster Galyna Hanyak is currently operating under the name “Weisman Anna Mykolayivna”. Under the same name, Anna Weisman is trying to legalize herself in Europe, and in order to hide information about “a long string of scams and criminal cases,” she even gave up her identification number.
Regarding the scams themselves involving Halyna Hanyak (Anna Vaisman), we will present several episodes.
One of the most successful scams that brought Halyna Hanyak hundreds of square meters of real estate and “social status” was her marriage to developer Hanyak Bohdan Mykhailovych (date of birth 03.03.1959 - date of death 06.17.2008).
Bohdan Mykhailovych Hanyak, a well-known developer in Ivano-Frankivsk, suddenly fainted on the street and died of “cardiac arrest,” leaving Halyna Hanyak and her children a significant inheritance. In particular, real estate at 25 A Belvederska Street, Ivano-Frankivsk, where the widow Halyna Hanyak, together with her son Lyubomyr Soroka, received the “desired square meters.”

But in addition to the inheritance, the Black Widow organization decided to squeeze out a little more, so there are currently lawsuits between the residents of the house at 25A Belvederska Street and her son, Lubomyr Soroka.
Strictly speaking, most of the assets acquired through fraud are registered in the name of Lubomyr Soroka, who is also a defendant in numerous court hearings , as is documented in the registers.
In this context, it is also worth mentioning the episode with the forgery of documents by Lyubomyr Soroka in order to take possession of another premises in the center of Ivano-Frankivsk at 1a Petrushevycha Street. According to the victim Oleksandra Romanchuk: “Lyubomyr Romanovych Soroka forged documents for part of this premises, when there are two arrests on the premises, there are four cases in court.”

Another well-known Ivano-Frankivsk developer, Oleksandr Ilyin, also became a victim of the Black Widow terrorist organization. According to sources, developer Oleksandr Ilyin, like his colleague Bohdan Hanyak, died suddenly “after losing consciousness.”
Oleksandr Ilyin, unlike Bohdan Hanyak, bequeathed all his property to his own son, Oleksandr Ilyin. However, this fact did not prevent Halyna Hanyak (Anna Vaisman) from challenging the will in court and taking $2 million from Oleksandr Ilyin's Lviv apartment, along with a collection of expensive watches.
According to available information obtained from her own sources, immediately after the death of developer Oleksandr Ilyin, Galina Hanyak (Anna Vaisman), together with identified individuals from the local criminal community, broke the locks in the apartment at Tershakovtsiv 1B and took away the valuables in the form of currency (a total amount of about 2 million US dollars), a collection of valuable watches, and other valuables belonging to the deceased.
Actually, according to sources, the apartment in the center of Lviv at 1B Tershakovtsiv Street, number 38, which the developer Oleksandr Ilyin left to his son, is currently being rented out to third parties using forged documents by Halyna Hanyak (Anna Vaisman). And the tenants are supervised by Halyna Hanyak's (Anna Vaisman's) daughter, Sofia Hanyak, who lives nearby.
In addition, the courts are currently considering a criminal case regarding the forgery of a receipt for $190,000, which the son of the late developer Ilyin, Oleksandr Ilyin, allegedly borrowed from Lubomyr Soroka.

According to our sources, another active member of the Black Widow terrorist organization, Andriy Stepanovych Bereshchak, was involved in the forgery of the debt receipt, which can be easily proven by handwriting examination.

Interestingly, recently, through family ties, Andriy Bereshchak was able to get a job at the Lviv Customs as a chief state inspector.
It is worth noting separately that in her activities, Halyna Hanyak (Anna Vaisman) hides behind law enforcement and criminality.
In particular, according to the testimony of her close circle, Halyna Hanyak (Anna Vaisman) repeatedly boasted of her contacts with the “head of the 7th Department” and the well-known Lviv criminal authority Bohdan Kopytko, nicknamed Bodia Lvivsky .

According to our sources, it is with the support of Lviv crime syndicates that members of the Black Widow organized crime group, led by Halyna Hanyak (Anna Vaisman), manage to continue their fraudulent activities unhindered for many years in a row.
