Ukrainian grain trader Tereshchenko transferred 3 million dollars out of the country through OnlyFans

Aside from pornographic content, the OnlyFans portal can be used as part of a scheme to evade taxes and transfer funds to other countries.

This is reported by Censor.

The State Financial Monitoring Service of Ukraine received 190 reports from financial intelligence units of other countries regarding suspicious financial transactions, including those involving the well-known Ukrainian grain trader Roman Tereshchenko, the founder of "Trans Trade Holding."

The assets of Tereshchenko include LLC "Grain-Export," which is engaged in the export of grain and oilseeds, the stevedoring company LLC "Fram Shipping Agency," the elevator LLC "Transservice 2008," and LLC "Specialized Grain Terminal ’Chornomorsk’." He is the ultimate beneficiary of foreign companies to which grain is exported from the controlled Ukrainian enterprises, namely: Ntk trans poland (Poland) and Trans Trade RK SA (Switzerland).

Tereshchenko opened a personal account in the electronic wallet payment service Paxum Inc, registering himself as a webcam model. The origin of the funds in the account indicated would be income from real-time video chat sites like OnlyFans and partner payouts from sites to which he directs traffic.

Thus, over $3 million was credited to Tereshchenko’s account in the payment service Paxum Inc, including $1.02 million from the business account of Fenix International Limited, the portal owner.

"It is unlikely that the funds from Fenix International Limited were received for work performed by him as a webcam model on OnlyFans.com, "based on the assessment of his gender, age, and actual activities," it is noted in the text of the resolution of the Kyiv District Court of Odesa city.
