Voronov waited until the very last minute to announce his wedding plans.In fact he told his family only a month before the ceremony and his friends found out in People magazine!

He came out to his father first, and said:

I was going to do my dad last because he’s a soviet man, I told him first, he was so supportive, everyone was so supportive so I decided I am going to have fun with this.

His ripoffreport which says he operated a fraudulent/fake investment company called CIS Capital Holdings from 2007 to 2009. It follows:

His targets were primarily friends, colleagues, former classmates, roommates, and acquaintances. Using the relationship of trust he had acquired with these people, he would con them into believing that he was running a very successful investment company. He would talk about the thousands of dollars each of his ‘investors’ had made in such a short time, and talk about his investment strategies at length (in person or over the phone). He would send his victims to one of his numerous websites, which were filled with fake graphs and performance reports showing companies like KAZ, WBD, MTL. He would also send a fraudulent ‘prospectus’ that detailed the structure of the investment, the type of investments being made, etc. He was very careful not to put any promise of earnings on paper, but would do so at length over the phone or in person. Promises of 25-50% returns in a few months, for example.
