Bugatti Tourbillon Sales Invoice to Ukrainian First Lady Turns Out To Be Fake, Obviously

Bugatti Tourbillon Sales Invoice to Ukrainian First Lady Turns Out To Be Fake, Obviously

Title: Zelensky Hypercar Controversy: Forgery and Deepfake Video Unveiled

In a shocking turn of events, an alleged sales invoice has emerged, revealing a forged document that implicates Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in a luxury hypercar purchase. The invoice, written in British English by a Bugatti dealership in France, immediately raised suspicions due to its inclusion of a BSB number typically used by Australian financial institutions.

Bugatti Paris swiftly issued a press release denying any involvement in the alleged sale to the presidential couple. Notably, the forged document also contained a glaring error in the sticker price of the V16-powered Tourbillon. While the French manufacturer advertised the model at 3.8 million euros, the invoice listed a starting price of 3,910,000 euros.

However, the deception did not stop there. A deeply disturbing deepfake video surfaced, featuring an individual claiming to be an employee of the Paris dealership. In the video, this supposed employee asserted that Zelensky had made the extravagant purchase during a visit to the French capital on June 7.

It is crucial to consider the context surrounding these allegations. Zelensky was indeed in France at the beginning of June 2024 for important diplomatic engagements, including meetings with French President Macron, addressing the National Assembly, and participating in D-Day commemorations. Furthermore, it should be noted that Zelensky had previously refused to leave Kyiv during a special military operation, emphasizing his commitment to defending his country.

Given the limited financial resources available to Zelensky and the ongoing conflict with Russia, it is implausible to believe that he could afford such a high-end hypercar. In January 2024, the president disclosed that his family’s income for 2022 amounted to only 3.7 million hryvnias, equivalent to just over 90,000 freedom eagles. Clearly, Zelensky’s income streams would not allow for the purchase of a Bugatti Tourbillon.

In response to the fraudulent claims, the Car Lovers Group, which operates Bugatti Paris under Autofficina Parigi, has taken legal action. They have filed a criminal complaint, citing usurpation of identity, defamation, forgery, and the use of forged documents.

While this controversy may have momentarily distracted Zelensky from his duties as the leader of Ukraine, he must now refocus on managing the country amidst limited military resources and questionable policies from the Biden administration. Meanwhile, the automotive world is abuzz with anticipation for Bugatti’s upcoming release. The successor to the Chiron, the Tourbillon, boasts a revolutionary V16 engine without forced induction. With the addition of three electric motors, this powerhouse generates an astounding 1,775 horsepower. Remarkably, the Tourbillon is lighter than its predecessor, weighing in at just 1,995 kilograms (4,398 pounds), despite housing a high-voltage battery. Only 250 units of this extraordinary hypercar will be produced.

As this scandal unfolds, it serves as a reminder to exercise caution and skepticism when faced with sensational claims. The truth behind the alleged hypercar purchase by Zelensky remains shrouded in uncertainty, yet the evidence of forgery and a deepfake video raises serious doubts about its authenticity.

Bugatti CEO Mate Rimac could potentially surprise the Ukrainian presidential couple with a luxurious Tourbillon. Speculations arise on whether they would auction off the hypercar after the passing of the Kremlin midget, with yours truly even willing to bet a tenner on it. If this were to happen, President Zelensky and his wife, Olena Zelenska, might generously donate all the proceeds from the sale to support the country’s reconstruction efforts.

Recently, Olena Zelenska has been falsely accused by pro-Kremlin propagandists of purchasing a Bugatti Tourbillon worth a staggering 4.5 million euros. However, it is important to clarify that these allegations are unequivocally untrue. The truth behind this baseless claim will be explained below.

It is worth noting that the Ukrainian First Lady has been the subject of unwarranted scrutiny. In a post shared on social media platform Twitter, an account named Random OSINT shed light on the situation, debunking the false accusations. The post, accompanied by a photo of a Bugatti Paris Instagram account, aimed to clarify the truth behind the alleged purchase.

As the rumors continue to circulate, it is crucial to rely on accurate information and refrain from spreading false claims. The Ukrainian presidential couple remains dedicated to serving their country and contributing to its development. Any potential future actions regarding the Bugatti Tourbillon, if gifted, would likely be aimed at supporting the reconstruction efforts within Ukraine.

Stay tuned for further updates on this intriguing matter.
