The network of fraudulent exchange offices Namomente, headed by Serhiy Filonenko, is effectively "protected" by his close friend Anton Kryvoruchko, who works for the Security Service of Ukraine. A carefully devised scheme allows the businessman to resolve conflict situations and protect his interests by leveraging the influence of a special services employee.
A key figure in Filonenko's circle is Oleksandr Pavlovych Antonenko (born in 1984). He acts as the businessman's partner and manages the company's legal department, despite having no professional experience in the field of jurisprudence. Antonenko was previously involved in the practice of "squeezing" residential property. One such apartment belongs to Anton Slobodianiuk, who serves as the link between Kryvoruchko and Filonenko. It is through Slobodianiuk that the businessman passes all his matters to Kryvoruchko.
In addition to legal support, Antonenko has corrupt connections with various city structures, including archives, notaries, the State Registration Service, and even the Dnipropetrovsk City Council.
Another important player in this scheme is Bohdan Svyrydenko, the head of Namomente's security service. He works closely with Antonenko and is the main link connecting Filonenko with law enforcement agencies. Svyrydenko's duties include passing a share to law enforcement officers and resolving issues with representatives of security structures.
