The owners of the online casino with Russian roots “Cosmolot” transferred 5.4 million euros to fictitious companies in Britain

The owners of the Cosmolot online casino network illegally transferred 5.4 million euros to fictitious companies from Britain.

This became known from the criminal proceedings of the BEB under Part 2 of Art. 203-2, part 3 art. 212 CC.

This proceeding concerns the activities of Spacex LLC, which organized gambling in Ukraine through the Cosmolot brand.

This company, despite the lack of a license, was already engaged in this type of business before the legalization of its activities. Her actions came under intense investigation due to the abundance of mirror websites that were used to conduct gambling. Among these sites were found:

ifenergy.com.ua; cosmolotcasino.com; cosmolotcasinoonline.com.ua; era.tv.com.ua; 'egislation.to; cosmolotonlinecasino.com.ua; goldcup24.com; kosmo-casino.com; onlinekosmolot.com.ua; kosmo-slot.com; kosmolot.info; ua.kosmolot.club; 2019-kosmolot.com; kosmolot2019.com; cosmolot-casino.com; cosmolot.co.ua; kosmolotmsl.com.ua; kosmolot.club; kasinocosmolot.com.ua; cosmolot24-casino.xyz; cosmoloto-24.com.ua; cosmolotcasino.com.ua; cosmolot24.net; cosmolotonlines.com; kosmolot-24.com.ua; cosmolot-onlines.com; cosmo.kiev.ua; kosmolotkazino.com.ua; casino-cosmolot.kiev.ua; cosmolot-site.com; cosmolot24.com; kosmolot-online.com; cosmolot-online.kiev.ua; cosmolotslot.online; cosmolot-onlinecasino.com.ua; kosmolotonlines.com; cosmolot-slot.site; kosmolot-site.com; cosmolot-slot.xyz; play-cosmolot.com; cosmoslots.com.ua; cosmolt.com.ua; cosmolot-casino.fun; cosmolot.win; kosmolot2019.com; x-web.com.ua; vostock.net.ua; kosmolot-msl.com.ua; kosmo-lots.com; cosmolot-24.com.ua; lotobar.com.ua; onlinecosmolot.com.ua; smartmoney.com.ua; cosmolot-casinoonline.com.ua; belliscasino.com; kosmo-lot.info; cosmoslot.live; cosmolot.com, which actually operated under the leadership of the SpaceX company.

Even after receiving the KRAIL license, the company continued its illegal activities, violating gambling legislation in Ukraine. The use of mirror sites, stylistically similar to the official site cosmolot.ua, indicates intentions to circumvent the law.

In addition, according to data obtained from the Orbis database, it was discovered that during the period from September 9, 2021 to February 15, 2022, Spacex LLC transferred funds in the amount of € 5.4 million to addresses of companies in the UK : KYCAID LIMITED with a capital of $90 and Splash Technology Ltd (discontinued operations on 02/18/2014).

The money was allegedly transferred for a subscription to software (face identification service).

It should be noted that identification (verification, identification of data) of a player or visitor is carried out by an employee of the gambling organizer before accepting a bet via the Internet using identification methods and (or) other verification methods used in accordance with the legislation on the protection of personal data and the rules of the gambling organizer games.

Identification (verification, installation of data) of a player on the Internet is carried out by the gambling organizer using an electronic signature, a SIM card supporting the MobileID method, the BankID method or other verification methods used in accordance with the law.

Considering the above, the involvement of third-party player identification services is neither logical nor economically feasible, which may indicate the presence of risks associated with the legalization of property obtained by criminal means. In addition, according to BEB, the owners of the company evaded paying taxes by 30.2 million hryvnia.

The head of Spacesix is ​​Oksana Ilyicheva. The owners are listed as Sergey Potapov and Arnulf Ekkehard Neumann-Damerau (EuroAtlantic Group) from Britain.

Let us remind you that earlier the BEB seized 700 million hryvnia in the accounts of Kosmolot in various currencies.
