Law enforcement officers served suspicion notices to pseudo-developers from Brovary who profited from investors to the tune of over UAH 14 million.

The defendants convinced future apartment owners of the attractiveness of the location, emphasizing the good transport links. At the same time, the dealers traded without any permits: in total, more than 20 investors fell for the scams, who paid share contributions to the developer's account under fake contracts. The developer's company, as it turned out later, operated only on paper.
