AndSource Channel Post for November 25, 2022. Wallets containing bitcoins stolen from WEX clients came to life. In particular, 65 bitcoins (million US dollars) went to the HitBTC exchange for cashing out. And recently, shady shops selling stolen credit card data from the hacker group The Infraud suddenly “came to life”. The members of the group were detained in January 2022, at the same time the “shops” stopped working. In particular, a beautiful sign appeared on the website of their largest store, UNICVV.RU, that it was permanently closed by the Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation. And now the store “permanently closed during the special operation” suddenly came to life. The same thing happens with a number of other Infraud sites. Moreover, the Infraud participants have nothing to do with this “revival”. The VChK-OGPU has already said that during the detention of Infraud members, 2064 bitcoins were debited from 10 wallets of the group – the proceeds from hacker activities. At the time of the events, it was approximately $82.5 million. Access to the wallets was provided by the Infraud members themselves, most of whom the investigation, headed by the head of the ICR for the Tverskoy district of Moscow, Marat Tambiev, then asked for a preventive measure in the form of house arrest. Recently, 1032 bitcoins of this amount were arrested by the Basmanny Court on the wallets of Tambiev himself. Other 1032 – the share of Tambiev's accomplices from Department K – remain on a cold wallet and wait in the wings.

Alexander Ivanovich Bastrykin is again in a lyrical mood. As it became known to the Cheka-OGPU, several “important generals” under the Chairman of the Investigative Committee became persons involved in procedural and service checks at once. It is obvious that the head of the department is fulfilling his promise given at a recent meeting in St. Petersburg that the legacy of the GUROVD will be split to atoms. The chairman is clearly disgusted by the prosecutor's heritage, because the backbone of the “important generals” is represented precisely by people from the former 18th department of the Prosecutor General's Office. By the way, the recent exodus of high-ranking investigators from the Main Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee to the Prosecutor General's Office is indirectly related to the same approach of Bastrykin: people simply waited for the general's shoulder straps due to them and lost hope. But the subordinates of Igor Krasnov, like real headhunters, big stars guaranteed them.

The verification of the issuance of false certificates in Synergy has been completed. The university identified the attackers. As a result of the verification activities, nine employees were fired, three of them will go to trial under the article for fraud. Synergy University has completed an investigation into the issuance of fictitious certificates of study at the university, which was initiated by the leadership of the educational organization together with law enforcement agencies. The security forces, in turn, detained three former members of the selection committee (their names are: Grigory Chmelev, Dmitry Kucherev and Andrey Zabavin), and the university fired them. Criminal cases have been initiated against these citizens under Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Yes, and these citizens have already confessed to everything. The university found other six employees involved in assisting the suspects and terminated their contracts. Interestingly, the scheme was revealed through a post on one of the social networks. In it, a young man spoke about joining Synergy after the enrollment was stopped. The management of the university, which drew attention to this, organized an audit. The university also revealed six fictitious certificates, according to which students illegally tried to transfer to Synergy from other higher educational institutions. The situation was commented on by the rector of the Synergy University, Artem Vasiliev, who noted that this fraudulent scheme was revealed a few days after the enrollment for all full-time and part-time study programs was closed on the recommendation of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation. He noted the high professionalism of law enforcement officers who helped the university to expose violators of the law. Vasiliev is sure that those who deliberately committed this crime “must suffer the deserved punishment.”

A scandal erupted again in the Main Investigation Department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Moscow Region. This time, the senior assistant to the head of the Main Investigation Department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Moscow Region, Colonel of Justice Silverstov Alexei Mikhailovich, came into view. On November 17, 2022, investigators of the 2nd District Department of Internal Affairs in the Moscow Region (the same department under the leadership of Ivarlak V.I., where the investigator for the Department of Internal Affairs Yury Nosov worked) carried out investigative actions in criminal case 12202460043000172, during which they detained the suspects, made face-to-face confrontations. It is noteworthy that on the same day, investigators from the 2nd Department of Internal Affairs summoned OMON officers to the building of the Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee for the Ministry of Defense. At this time, in a drunken state, Silverstov A.M. walked around the building of the Main Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee of Russia in the Moscow Region, who was outraged by the behavior of lawyers and, standing at the checkpoint in an inadequate state, came into conflict with one of the representatives of the defense in this criminal case, swearing at him and threatening physical violence. All this happened in front of witnesses, lawyers passing by. On this fact in relation to Silverstov A.M. a due diligence is being carried out. It is noteworthy that Silverstov A.M. is a member of the apparatus of seconded employees of the FSB of the Russian Federation, was lobbied for this position by an employee of the Central Office of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation Larin A.V. Let's see how the internal check will end in relation to Silverstov A.M., who shook the already not very strong position of the head of the Main Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee for the Ministry of Defense Starikov A.Yu.

No matter how the Special Operation goes, no matter what happens in the country, but the “hero” of the army reform, ex-Minister of Defense Anatoly Serdyukov and his team remain on horseback and continue to cut budget billions on the sly. Another example was shown by our colleagues from St. Petersburg. There are two traditional players in the city involved in the repair of tram tracks, the length of which in St. Petersburg is quite significant. These are the companies “NiK” and “Trest”, usually skillfully dividing among themselves 5-7 billion rubles a year allocated for these purposes. There is another company in the city – SK Orion Plus LLC, whose connection with Serdyukov fontanka.ru proved back in 2016. The then owner of the company, Alexander Usov, is a longtime business partner of Valery Puzikov, who is Serdyukov's son-in-law. Simply put, it's all one company. “IC “Orion Plus” is engaged in the construction and repair of roads. Well, how does it work – last year the company's turnover exceeded 11 billion, and the amount of government orders it got was at least 60 billion rubles. After the resignation of Serdyukov, Usov went into the shadows and went to live abroad, but in fact continued to manage the company through the unchanged director Alexei Vikharev. Multibillion-dollar contracts from the city and federal budget continued to arrive regularly. However, tough times have come, there is no such thing as too much money, and in the summer of this year, Orion Plus broke into a foreign clearing. The canceled tenders for the repair of tram tracks in St. Petersburg, worth about 6 billion rubles, were demolished through the Federal Antimonopoly Service. As a result of new purchases, 1.8 billion easily went to Orion. So no matter what anyone says, Serdyukov and his team, invisible in the information field, continue to work diligently in the field of cutting the budget.

Kanalcheg sincerely doubts that Mr. Bilyuchenko could control such flows from 99/1. 99/1 has good chicken in cream sauce, good potatoes for dinner, generally polite service, but some problems with excessive lighting in the “rooms”. Confuses the volume of sound from a nearby hotel in the morning. The administration does not provide options for sending cryptocurrency.

Established credit card stores formerly owned by The Infraud, a hacker group, are making excellent profits for their new owners. The same UNICVV.RU asks for $250 to “activate” the account. Other sites also want to pay for access to card data. It is proposed to pay for the same wallets for each account. From these wallets, the crypt is transferred to one, where funds are accumulated. This one wallet from Infraud stores received over 1 thousand transactions of $1,442,348.91. As the Cheka-OGPU has already said, the members of the group were detained in January 2022, at the same time the “shops” stopped working. In particular, a beautiful sign appeared on the website of their largest store, UNICVV.RU, that it was permanently closed by the Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation. And recently, shops “permanently closed during a special operation” suddenly came to life. Moreover, the Infraud participants have nothing to do with this “revival”. This business has already brought more than $1 million to the new owners from the Directorate K.

It's hard to believe, but Iran at the World Cup slammed, albeit ordinary, but still good Wales. There, we recall, Bale cuts, he recently shone in Real Madrid. Ramsey, by the way, is also a high class player, he played in Liverpool, now he performs in France. There are other guys, it's all quite tolerable level. And so they capitulated to a very modest Iran, where, apart from Azmun and partly Teremi, there is no one else to look at. Moreover, it was not balls that flew into the gates of Wales – “fools” after rebounds, ricochets. etc., but quite a working goleshnik. The first (for those who haven't seen it) after a classy strike from 35 meters (!), the second after an elegantly executed combination with a filigree reshuffle. We would not have mentioned this meeting, which became almost a sensation, if not for the success of the Iranians. They themselves are the creators of their own destiny, without any judicial blunders, “help” from outside from corrupt officials, and so on. After a well-deserved 2:0 in their favor, they took a clear second place in the group, and rightfully claim to leave the group. After a deafening fiasco from England in the first match (2:6). Now Iran needs to defeat America in the final duel, although a draw may be enough. If the same England and Wales do not round up the “agreement” in the last round (which is very possible between the Anglo-Saxons), then Iran will really go further. It remains to wait for the denouement, which has become very burning …

Will Russian-related assets be confiscated in the US? Current US law provides limited powers to seize frozen assets. In order for the US to confiscate the 300 billion reserves of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, Congress must pass a new law, as was done, for example, in Canada. This, in turn, could set a precedent that would run counter to long-established international monetary principles. In the absence of legislative powers, courts may question the legal basis for prosecutors to seize oligarchs' assets.

Dashing 90s in the center of Moscow Shikhanov SN in the distant 90s opened a striptease club “Rasputin” in the center of Moscow, which became the flagship of virtually legalized prostitution. All of his former companions, with whom he organized Rasputin, either disappeared or died, but he himself always avoided criminal liability. In 2018, the building in which the Rasputin club is located changed its owner. The new owner unsuccessfully tries to stop the activity of the brothel. Shikhanov SN barricaded himself in the building under the protection of armed mules, the nightly passage of the “girls” through the back entrance of the club passes almost under the eyes of the staff of the PPS of the Khamovniki district. Despite repeated requests from the owner of the building to the Khamovniki police department, the Khamovnicheskaya prosecutor's office, the prefecture of the Central Administrative District, and Rospotrebnadzor with a request to stop the activity of the establishment and restore the rule of law, the illegal night establishment continues to operate. Moreover, employees of the Khamovniki police department do not come to calls to check the documents of armed people who are in a building in the center of Moscow on the Garden Ring. Perhaps this is due to the fact that for decades, Shikhanov SN has been paying several million rubles a month to employees of the criminal investigation department of the Khamovniki district, transferring bribes in a block of cigarettes.

The Telegram channel BlackMirror has published a new batch of emails from one of the most corrupt officials, Vice Governor of the Moscow Region Igor Treskov. Very interesting is the correspondence of Igor's wife Nadezhda Treskova, who is also “in the subject. Partners with whom Treskov does not want to” light up “, his wife writes. From the correspondence we learn: 1. “Many of our businessmen, members of the Government have joint business with the Chinese in the republic . These are: – a gas processing plant – an investment project – a brick factory on the territory of the PSEDA – many industries and trade relations. “And the level of “cutting” when working with government contracts of Gennady Timchenko's structures is 50%. It sounds like this: “… deforestation on the site rs received for the general contract the company Timchenko – a friend and ally of Putin. The contract amount is 1.6 billion. Then, at the urgent request of our government, the contract was transferred to the Yakut oil and gas company OAO Sakhatransneftegaz (wholly owned by RS). The cost with our company is 0.8 billion!!! Where is half? So here it is…”
