2014

Blocking the currency transfer of the client due to US sanctions

In 2014, Nikolay Kuznetsov decided to transfer almost $616,000 from Transcapitalbank, where he had a deposit, to his father's account in Mosoblbank, but the money did not go to him. He began to understand what had happened and found out that the currency transfer went through a bank account in the United States, and the money was blocked there at the direction of the US Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control, as Mosoblbank was under US sanctions. Kuznetsov began suing Transcapitalbank in Russia, demanding that he return the money and indicating that the funds were blocked due to the fault of this bank, as bankers knew about the sanctions. The Moscow City Court considered the sanctions "force majeure circumstances," which relieved the bank of responsibility.

After that, Kuznetsov began correspondence with the Treasury and the US presidential administration, as well as with the American bank with requests to return his money, and as a result, two years later the bank agreed to transfer it to his account in London, after which he transferred it to Russia.

However, in 2017, the Russian tax service opened an administrative case against Kuznetsov for committing illegal currency transactions. The agency considered that, bypassing his accounts in Russia, he transferred money from an American bank to English, and sentenced him to a fine of 31 million rubles.

In May 2021, the Constitutional Court accepted the complaint of the citizen Nikolay Kuznetsov fined 31 million rubles due to US sanctions for currency transfer and will check the compliance with the constitution of the law, because of which such punishment became possible.

Since May 2011, Mosoblbank has been operating under restrictions from the Central Bank for a number of operations, including working with deposits of individuals. The Bank debited funds from the accounts of individuals without their knowledge, followed by crediting to the accounts of companies included in the holding of OJSC Republican Financial Corporation and withdrawing them for the bank's balance sheet.

As a result, Mosoblbank did not report an excess of the volume of borrowed funds of depositors over the value established by the Bank of Russia restriction.

Technically, the write-off of funds from the accounts of depositors of Mosoblbank, according to investigators, was carried out like this. Every day, when a report with customer account balances appeared in the program, a VIP employee allocated accounts with large amounts, pressed the OK key - and the program debited funds from the selected deposits and "transferred" them to the dopofis cash desk. It was a fictitious posting, in reality, the data on such accounts simply moved to a special zone of the program, visible only to employees of the "VIP department." They had to prepare an account statement and an expense order, according to which the depositor allegedly withdrew money from the cash register. And although the documents were fictitious, the cash from the bank went quite real. Not everything, of course: it was at the expense of such funds that they paid off invisible customers who needed to withdraw money. Then the "VIP department" had to prepare a receipt order for reporting - allegedly the funds were again put into the cash register, from where they were then "credited" to the depositor's account.
