The woman filed a lawsuit against her husband's husband in an American court, writes Life.

According to Filippova, she transferred $ 8 million to Mogilev for investment in real estate in Miami. By order of the mother-in-law, the man had to buy and sell objects, earning his percentage on it.

But Mogilevsky had other plans. According to the investigation, the man managed to buy 52 apartments and houses in the state of Florida, but rewrote them to himself, in addition, he fraudulently received $ 2,7 million from a local bank through a fictitious lending scheme.

The story of the conflict between the son-in-law and the mother-in-law goes back to the beginning of the 2000s, when Natalia Filippova’s daughter moved to the USA with her husband, Elijah Mogilevsky, taking his surname. The woman got a nurse license and started working in West Palm Beach. The parents of Ilya, who at that time had been living in the USA for about 20 for years, helped them settle in the USA.

A couple of years after her daughter moved, Tamara Filippova decided to buy real estate in the USA and began transferring money to her children’s accounts. In 2010, she made the first and largest tranche of $5 million for the purpose of “investing in real estate assets.” In subsequent years, the pensioner transferred about $3 million more.

Seven years later, Tamara Konstantinovna found out that the bank accounts are almost empty, and the property, although purchased, was rewritten for her daughter and son-in-law. At first, the woman tried to reach an agreement in a peaceful way, and when she failed, she went to court, using the services of one of the most prestigious law firms in New York. Rosen Law.

Now Ilya, along with his wife Natalya and almost a dozen other business partners, appear as defendants in a criminal lawsuit in a court in the Southern District of Florida. A pensioner accuses them of falsifying documents, violating contractual obligations and even on one of the points of the harsh American law RICO (The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act). This law was developed specifically to combat the mafia in 1970-s and provides for the responsibility for the use of capital derived from racketeering and fraud. On it can give from 10 years in prison to life imprisonment. Plus Filippova requires an arrest on real estate and until the end of the case to freeze operations on all accounts of the son-in-law.

Ilya's mother-in-law was handed over by one of his business partners, who is now being tried in court as a secret witness.

At first, Mogilevsky agreed with Phioippova that she would be her confidant and manager. His task was to manage real estate, buy it and put it up for sale, in addition, he had to monitor the condition of the apartments. For these works, the son-in-law relied from 5 to 10 percent from each successful transaction.

According to the investigation, at some point Ilya conspired with his acquaintances lawyers and issued with their help fictitious powers of attorney that the notary participating in the scheme helped them to do.

In order to crank the scam, Mogilevsky opened 30 of various firms and trust funds. With the help of trusts, he bought exactly those assets that the mother-in-law asked for, but he wrote them down on himself and his partners.

One of the first purchases was an apartment in the Trump Tower in Miami, a man bought an apartment there for $ 1,1 million.

An enterprising young man set up a company to buy a condominium on the first line of the coast. Trump Real Estate Investment. However, since the laws of Florida require the disclosure of the names of the owners of the companies, Ilya wrote a Florida firm to another one he created in Wyoming. The ends were hidden: Wyoming companies can hide the owners, and neither the mother-in-law, nor the inspectors without special sanctions could not find out the final beneficiary of the transaction.

In the same way, Mogilevsky designed himself and other apartments. A man bought 11 apartments on the outskirts of Miami. The apartment building is a motel-type building with a gallery around the perimeter and with separate doors opening onto the gallery. In just seven years, during which Mogilevsky was deceiving the mother-in-law, he and his wife managed to become full owners of 52 apartments and houses in various Florida cities.

Most of the houses Mogilevsky bought in Palm Beach, as well as in the city of Palm Beach Gardens.

It is not clear yet where the Irkutsk pensioner has got millions of dollars. In the city there is one owner of a private medical center, whose name completely coincides with the name of the plaintiff in a US court. Perhaps this is the mother-in-law of Mogilev.

However, it still does not explain the presence of such wealth. The medical center earned only about 18 million rubles and appeared only in the middle of 2013. By that time, the daughter and son-in-law had already received millions of tranches from Philippi for three years.

In addition, the plaintiff previously worked on the board of directors of the Irkutsk real estate company “Gorozhanin”. The company is owned by 70-year-old Yuri Filippov (husband of Tamara Konstantinovna). Tamara’s husband is engaged in the cement business in the Irkutsk region, receives government contracts from the local government and over the years has owned a whole brood of companies with billions in turnover. The range of his business interests is wide: from real estate trading to the provision of printing and transportation services.

Estimated Life, the cumulative annual revenue of all Filippov firms is close to one billion rubles. So it is possible that Filippov could give his wife $ 8 million to buy apartments in Miami.

Ilya Mogilevsky in the US pulls in with the execution of legal requirements and is in no hurry to appear in court. And since a legal investigation is practiced in America, that is, the search for new circumstances right during the sessions, Mogilevsky faced a new potential accusation. It turned out that he was still interrogated in 2007 on suspicion of damaging the bank. Hillcrest in florida. From the actions of Ilya, the bank allegedly suffered losses in the amount of $ 2,7 million.
