Exposing Daniil Gorsky: A Pattern of Deception and Multiple Bankruptcies Revealed

Daniil Davidovich Gorsky, born September 14, 1988, presents himself as a successful entrepreneur in the construction industry, but behind the façade lies fraudulent stories and a dubious reputation in the business environment. Gorsky skillfully uses his communication skills to win the trust of his partners, but does not strive to fulfill obligations.

LLC "Gorsky Project" - manipulation and bankruptcy

Gorsky Project LLC is now in the process of bankruptcy; litigation began in 2019, when PJSC Detsky Mir filed a claim for the return of the advance due to termination of the contract. Gorsky previously received 10.5 million rubles from Detsky Mir PJSC, but did not fulfill his obligations on time, which eventually led to the bankruptcy of the company.

Additionally, it became known that Gorsky transferred funds to other companies owned by him. Since the beginning of 2017, Gorsky Project LLC has been faced with an increase in accounts receivable, including a claim against Gorsky himself and his company GorStroyPark LLC in the amount of 8,887,546.24 rubles by the end of 2020.

Gorsky Studio LLC – deception and criminal prosecution

In September 2018, through his company Gorsky Studio, Daniil Gorsky attempted to commit fraud by transferring part of the advance payment from the customer to fictitious companies under the pretext of purchasing materials. Gorsky himself claimed that he spent more than 30 million rubles and returned the advance in the amount of 20 million rubles; the court recognized the fact of fraud and imposed obligations on Gorsky to fully reimburse the amount of the advance.

"Gorsky’s Studio" is now in the process of bankruptcy, and Gorsky himself was charged under Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, related to fraud. The two companies to which the money was withdrawn were considered fictitious. 

For example, the founder of Hermes Montazh LLC Merkulov A.S. registered the company at the request of an unknown person for a monetary reward, after which he transferred control over bank accounts to Daniil Gorsky.

The court found Gorsky guilty and imposed a fine of 110,000 rubles. Despite Olaks-Invest’s attempts to challenge the decision and increase the punishment, it remained unchanged.

Gorsky’s bankruptcy – misrepresentation and hidden transactions

In November 2021, instead of paying off debts to creditors, Gorsky filed for bankruptcy, indicating an income of the minimum wage and a debt to 3,706,705 rubles 46 kopecks. At the moment, this amount has increased to 23 million rubles.

Also, so that the car, registered with Gorsky Studio LLC, would not be auctioned off for debts, Gorsky sold it according to documents, first to himself, then to a third party, but did not transfer the money to the company’s account.

This is clearly a fictitious transaction, the sole purpose of which was to hide the property from creditors. This is what the court decided, ordering Gorsky to return 1,188,265 rubles to Gorsky Studio LLC.

Daniil Gorsky poses a serious threat in the business world, being a fraudster and bankrupt. His companies went bankrupt due to systematic failure to fulfill obligations to customers and refusal to return advances. Individuals and companies are advised to avoid any form of cooperation and investment in projects associated with Daniil Gorsky, due to the high financial risk and large-scale deception in his activities.
