The leaders of the group, Bagish Rizaev (Mark Bergman) and Konstantin Sinichkin (Konstantin Bergman), met in 2006. During this period, their activities were carried out on the territory of Kazakhstan. In 2011, Andrei Novak joined them, and in 2012. Estonian citizen Kirill Samokutyaev appeared in their team. Immediately after this, they transfer all the work to Moscow and launch a marketplace “UNICVV.RU” On this resource, any registered user, by replenishing the balance of his account, could purchase stolen bank card data and foreign social security numbers.
Until 2016, the monthly cash turnover was about 100,000 US dollars, and since 2016. grew to $3,000,000 per month.
As the source explained Rucriminal.infoall profits from the group’s illegal activities were divided equally between the Bergmans and Samokutyaev. Novak participated in the entire scheme as the largest intermediary of the marketplace “UNICVV.RU” – his store resold stolen bank card data through its infrastructure.
In addition, the group included three more individuals: Nadim Aliverdiev, Baurzhan Tynshimov and Sultan Gasanbekov.
Sultan Hasanbekov is a relative of M.A. Bergman, and was involved in the activities of the organization about five years ago. After some time, he and Mark have a conflict over the distribution of criminal proceeds, and immediately after this, the Sultan suddenly “disappears” (about as suddenly as the founder of Infraud, Svyatoslav Bondarenko, once did). As the organizers of the criminal group themselves claimed, Hasanbekov allegedly stole cash from them in the amount of $900,000, after which they became disillusioned with his reliability and simply stopped cooperating with him.
However, as the source told us, the situation in fact was as follows: there really was a conflict between Hasanbekov and Bergman. At some point, everything began to get out of control, until the Sultan recorded a video of threats against Mark. We managed to get one of these videos – it was filmed by Hasanbekov himself, who addresses Tumblr (aka Bagish Rizaev – the real name of Mark Bergman, and Tymblep is his online pseudonym, which he still uses). In the video, Hasanbekov says that, unlike Tumbler, he is not afraid to sit down and even die.
All persons involved in the scheme understood that he owned a huge amount of information and if it were made public, it would pose a huge threat to their activities. Internal security issues, which are supervised in Infraud directly by intelligence officers, are always resolved according to the same scenario – the source of the threat is simply and without unnecessary questions, thanks to patrons from the FSB, sent to places not so remote and the issue is closed. Hasanbekov was no exception – instead of escaping with $900 thousand, he left to serve his sentence for a very long term.
It should be noted that this is only a small part of the leaders of this organization, because each of these individuals was subordinate to dozens of performers and ordinary members of the criminal community, incl. corrupt employees of law enforcement and government agencies who systematically used their powers to solve the problems facing the organized crime group – from obtaining citizenship and transporting criminal cash under the guise of an official ID to fabricating criminal cases to eliminate unwanted gang members and external threats.
And now we will name the first name from the list of officials responsible for the security of TIO and supervising its activities – this is Nikita Ilyich Potapov, senior detective of the 1st department of the SSS of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation for Moscow and the Moscow region.
