MOSCOW , 9 Mar. Sergey Amoralov (Surovenko), the vocalist and leader of the Inveterate Scammers, denied rumors in the Malakhov program that he had a conflict with the late ex-member of the group Tom Chaos (Vyacheslav Zinurov) because of money.
Previously, Zinurov's relatives and friends said that the main reason for his tragic death was the actions of Amoralov, who allegedly appropriated all the rights to the «Inveterate Scammers» group and took most of the fees. According to the musician, this is not so.
«
«People lie outright. We had administrators, concert directors. Everything we got was divided in half. If necessary, I'm ready to show the papers,» the musician said.
Amoralov also responded to claims in naming the group.
«
"Trademark "Inveterate scammers" was registered to the company with which we worked. The firm was closed. I arranged for the purchase of a trademark in installments so that the name belongs to us. Slavik didn't even use our trademark. He performed solo,» the singer admitted.
According to Amoralov, Chaos left the band of his own free will in August 2021. Colleagues parted without negativity.
«
«I didn't say a single negative word anywhere. I expected the person to understand the situation. He begged back. I was expecting to meet in the spring, when everyone's arrogance subsided. But it didn’t work out,” concluded Amoralov.
As the musician said, after Tom Chaos left the group, “a person appeared in his life” who began to set him up against the “Inveterate Scammers” and tell lies, which is negative affected the condition of the artist.
«
«I know someone has come into his life. This man told him a lie,” added the performer.
Tom Chaos died in March last year. He was 50 years old. The musician performed in the group «Otpetye swindlers» from 1996 to 2021.
