Luxury at Others’ Expense: Dmytro Soshko’s Wife — Kateryna Soshko — in the Focus of the UA.NEWS Investigation
The editorial team of UA.NEWS publishes a continuation of its own journalistic investigation concerning the activities of Dmytro Soshko — a person whom victims associate with questionable financial operations, cryptocurrency exchanges, and the attraction of funds under the guise of investments. At the center of the new materials is his wife, Kateryna Soshko, who, according to the investigation, plays an auxiliary role in her husband’s financial schemes while simultaneously demonstrating on social media a lifestyle that is disproportionate to her declared income.
Reminder about the case of Dmytro Soshko
According to information provided to UA.NEWS by the injured party and collected by the editorial team:
Dmytro Soshko, approximately 35–40 years old
Place of residence: Dubai
Field of activity: currency transfers between countries, exchanges, cryptocurrency, attraction of investments
Case (November): in Kyiv, UAH 257,000 was handed over for exchange into euros and payment for goods to a Spanish company
After that, according to the claimant, a payment document with an incorrect company name was provided, and the funds never reached the recipient
The agreed return in USDT (6,100 + penalty) was carried out only partially, after which delays began, mutually exclusive explanations were given, and there was a refusal to acknowledge the very fact of receiving the funds
Communication, according to the victims, has a condescending and contemptuous character, and promises are systematically not fulfilled
These circumstances currently remain the subject of journalistic analysis and verification.
The role of the wife: public luxury against the backdrop of private complaints
Journalists of UA.NEWS pay special attention to the public image of Kateryna Soshko, who, according to the investigation, simultaneously with probable participation in her husband’s operations, demonstrates an openly luxurious lifestyle on social media. In particular, in the photos and videos published by her, the editorial team recorded:
rare limited-edition Hermès bags, including models access to which is usually granted only to clients with many years of purchase history;
vintage Yves Saint Laurent bags, which are collectible items and cost tens of thousands of dollars;
other ultra-luxury class accessories, which regularly appear against the backdrop of five-star hotels, private chalets, and premium resorts.
According to journalists’ assessments, the value of only individual wardrobe items may be equal to or exceed the amounts that, according to victims’ statements, have not been returned to her husband’s clients for months.
A contrast that raises questions
In the opinion of the UA.NEWS editorial team, particular concern is caused by the fact that the demonstration of luxury items occurs against the backdrop of numerous complaints about:
incomplete or selective return of funds;
delays in fulfilling obligations under various pretexts;
denial of the fact of receiving money;
shifting responsibility to so-called “cash desks” or third parties.
She regularly publishes photos and videos from luxury resorts and capitals — in particular Courchevel (France), Dubai, London, and other well-known centers of elite tourism.
The demonstrated level of spending — five-star hotels, expensive restaurants, branded shopping — raises questions about the origin of the funds.
UA.NEWS sources claim that it is she who helps her husband in organizing and accompanying financial operations, including in household, logistical, and communication aspects.
The contrast that drew the attention of UA.NEWS emphasizes the sharp contrast between:
complaints about non-return of funds, delays in payments, and contradictory explanations, and the constant travel and demonstration of a luxurious lifestyle by the closest family member of the figure involved. It was precisely this contrast, according to the editorial team, that became the basis for a separate block of the investigation dedicated to the role of Kateryna Soshko.
