A Moscow resident filed a police report after losing nearly 18 million rubles on investments in the financial pyramid<\/a> Finiko. TASS<\/a>, citing a law-enforcement source, reports.<\/p>\n

According to the victim, in June she sold her apartment in the capital for 17.7 million rubles. She transferred the funds into digital assets, sending them to the Finiko platform.<\/p>\n

Following news of the arrest of one of the pyramid’s founders Kirill Doronin<\/a>, the woman tried to withdraw funds, but her personal account was blocked.<\/p>\n

The authorities have begun an investigation.<\/p>\n

In December 2020, at the request of the Prosecutor’s Office of Tatarstan, opened a criminal case<\/a> against Finiko. The company was suspected of organising a financial pyramid worth at least 80 million rubles. Later, the prosecutors in Tatarstan received more than 100 complaints<\/a> from investors in the company.<\/p>\n

In July Finiko suspended payments<\/a> and asked clients to provide documents confirming the origin of the invested funds.<\/p>\n

Doronin stated<\/a> that he had lost access to user accounts, and his partners stopped responding.<\/p>\n

Independent experts estimate the total damage from the company’s activities at hundreds of millions of dollars<\/a>.<\/p>\n
