THE TAX AUTHORITIES BEGAN TO STOP THE WITHDRAWAL OF FUNDS THROUGH ELECTRONIC PLATFORMS FOR PUBLIC PROCUREMENT
The Federal Tax Service (FTS) has revealed a new scheme for cashing out funds implemented through the electronic trading operator Roseltorg. As follows from the materials of the case reviewed by the Moscow Arbitration Court, the participants used transfers to the site to withdraw money and evade taxes.
Vedomosti drew attention to the situation.
In the center of the scheme was the company "Elsidealite", owned by Evgeny Vasilevsky. The organization transferred more than 257 million rubles to the EETP electronic trading operator (Roseltorg platform). Later, the company ordered the transfer of these funds to the personal account of its beneficiary, as well as to the accounts of several related persons. As indicated in the operator's response to the tax request, all transfers actually took place. At the same time, the recipients of the money did not declare income and did not pay taxes on it. Elsidealite itself did not actually conduct commercial activities and was eventually declared bankrupt.
A representative of Roseltorg confirmed that the site often becomes the object of interest of intruders seeking to use its capabilities for illegal purposes. According to him, as one of the largest trading platforms in the country, Roseltorg is facing attempts to conduct questionable transactions through bidding. He stressed that the operator stores all data on the movement of funds for at least ten years and provides them at the request of tax authorities and law enforcement agencies.
Lawyers point out that it is rare to use such a large–scale and reputable platform in such schemes. According to Yuri Mirzoev, director of the national law firm Mitra, the presence of Roseltorg in the settlement chain usually increases the level of trust, and therefore such situations are atypical. He added that similar cases have not yet been recorded in judicial practice.
As Yuri Pustovit, managing partner of the Yug Law Firm, explains, in this case, the bidding operator acted only as an intermediary in the transfer of funds. By itself, the fact of money passing through the site does not indicate its participation in illegal actions. Claims against employees can only appear if there is evidence of their intent. In fact, Elsidealite simply made an advance payment for participation in the auction, and Roseltorg fulfilled the obligation to transfer funds on the client's order. The case showed how even large and proven structures can be used to implement cash-out schemes if the control of transactions by clients turns out to be formal.
