Hungarian accused of stealing USD millions from Ukraine aid, spying to Russia
A Hungarian woman has been accused of stealing Ukrainian medical supplies. The disappearance of the shipment caused damage worth millions of dollars. Donations to the soldiers were also confiscated by the name ‘Mockingjay’, Fajd’s callsign in the Ukrainian Foreign Legion.
Earlier, Emese Fajk, the perpetrator was exposed in Australia after allegedly using fake ANZ. The purpose of this was to win The Block, a reality show auction in 2020, and to pay for the property. According to TransTelex.ro, she had transferred the bid she promised according to screenshots sent to the producer, but it had not actually arrived. Fajk blamed her alleged lawyer and promised to solve the problem within days.
In a blog post, she said that she was trying to reach the channel on the problem in vain, so she had to give up buying the property. She fled the country, but in 2022, she got in trouble again when allegedly stole from her landlord and also her partner in Portugal, where she had previously changed her name to Abigél Fuchs.
In July, she appeared in the Ukrainian Foreign Legion as communications director. Some of her supervisors found her behaviour suspicious, so they started to investigate her life voluntarily. Daily Mail Australia outlined the allegations.
“It is a nearly unanimously held belief within the legion that she is cancer on the organization that must be excised lest she destroys the entire body of the organization itself,” concluded the report the legion issued. “In every aspect of her job, she has been proven to be an abject failure.”
Accused of stealing medical supplies and funding
The disappearance of the shipment caused damage worth USD 2.5 million (AUD 3.67 million). The products were mostly painkillers such as fentanyl, ketamine, and lidocaine among other drugs, but she is also accused of stealing donations intended for the war effort. The supplies the military was expecting were never delivered, so they made efforts to locate them. After confronting Fajk, she said she had nothing to do with the missing shipment, but the delivery man claimed that she was present when it arrived. The director who organised the shipment confirmed that the shipment never made it to the soldiers.
“A good friend of mine was in agony for three hours, it’s a miracle he didn’t die of shock, because he didn’t have the supplies he was supposed to.”
Another one of the kind.
Australian scammer / @Int_Legion_UA ‘volunteer’, Emese Fajk, (a.k.a. ‘Mockingjay’ 😅) stole US$2.5 million shipment of medical supplies designated for Ukrainian Army and syphoning off donations intended for Ukraine’s war.

After that, when Fajd was getting herself repeatedly in trouble, some of the medical supplies were found, such as the full shipment of Propofol and about half of the other medicines.

Huge amounts of the donation intended for the army disappeared and were “confiscated Mockingjay and sent to places unknown,” wrote the report. She was caught on record admitting she “routinely utilised the funds in this account for personal profit.”
Compulsive liar: two lies and a truth?
Earlier, the community in Transylvania heard about her in one of the TEDx motivational speeches held in Tirgu Mures, Romania. “I own my own company, Anakin, a consultancy firm, clients including the United Nations and Apple, specialising in counterterrorism, peacekeeping and cyber security,” visitors can read on the site of the TED event.
TransTelex contacted Péter W. Szabó, the curator of TEDx, who met her in London. She told him very convincingly about her life, and he never doubted the truth of what she said. Péter W. Szabó suggested her to give a TEDx talk.
“The only reason she could do it was to further her credibility. TEDx speakers don’t get paid to perform, so there was no financial gain for her.”
After her scandal in Australia in 2020, the video was deleted from the channel, so she cannot use it anymore as a reference. She really did own Anakin Consultancy. The name existed in the registry of the British company registration office, which was indeed owned by Fajk. However, she probably did not have any relationship with United Nations and Apple. Emese Fajk was its only employee and director, and it was shut down in 2019. The Instagram profile of the company has 13 followers.
Some people she got to know in Cluj-Napoca, Romania confirmed that she was often caught on lying. When they confronted her, she further compounded the lies. She had to leave her rental apartments and move to another because of variable reasons, such as “crazy landlords”. There were also people from whom she borrowed and then did never pay back. Sometimes he would leave the apartment unexpectedly, without paying, and without any of her belongings.
Even Pablito’s Way, a popular YouTube channel dealing with mainstream news made a video of her.
A smear campaign?
“Anyone can write so-called reports, but these reports would need to be backed up with evidence. I will be more than happy to work with any authorities conducting any official investigations. Otherwise, this is hearsay and nothing but a smear campaign,” she reacted to the accusations, according to Daily Mail.
“While evidence to substantiate these claims has been promised by several people repeatedly, to this day the evidence was never forthcoming,” she wrote in a Facebook post addressing journalists. According to her, both Ground Forces and SBU representatives assured Fajk that there are no ongoing investigations against or about her.

The report wrote that this scandal planted the image in people’s minds that the Ukrainian Legion was corrupt, untrustworthy, unprepared, and incompetent. Initially, the volunteers were not well-filtered by the Ukrainian authorities. That is the reason why an international ‘conwoman’ like Fajk could have ended up in the legion.

Another corrupt Hungarian, what’s new?
Zelensky’s government will try almost anything to get even with Hungary. Zelensky should realize the Hungarian people are already helping by looking after the Ukrainian refugees, that crossed into Hungary to escape the games being played. If Zelensky cares so much for Ukraine, he should start immediate cease fire, not only for the Russian Arm Forces but also the Ukrainian Army. Zelensky’s actions hurt everyone in the EU. It also seems the whole of the EU is paying for Zelensky’s wish to be compared a saint.
We must always keep in mind that Zelensky is a dictator. Zelensky does not tolerate any opposition. Zelensky’s secret service broke into Convents, Monasteries and outlawed the 1000-year-old Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
Typical product of Orbânistan. Nothing new, just not lucky enough to belong to the dictator’s long list of family&friends.
@mariavontheresa:
Re the first two sentences of your comment in the last paragraph, I feel you must have the names Zelenskiy and Orban mixed up.
@mario:
You mean that’s why Fajk got caught and exposed (ie, not belonging to one of the said groups).
I simply want to state – for all reading these comments – that the commenter Mariavontheresa is obviously a Russian asset fighting in the information war. He/she is reiterating all Kremlin-talking points, which are designed to break down western support for Ukraine.
– “Getting even”. Hungary has delayed several EU-packages of aid to Ukraine since the invasion in February. They have taken refugees, but nothing compared to the millions in Poland and elsewhere. Criticism of Hungary happens on this basis, as the country is fully dependent on Russian gas. They have leverage on Orban and they are using it.
– “Zelensky doesn’t care / wants to be a ‘giant’.” Here he/she is blaming the government of Zelensky for fighting against the Russian invasion as this is somehow morally wrong / related to some wish of the government to gain prestige. It has already been seen in several cases during the war in the Donbas that Russia doesn’t respect any cease-fires, and it seems very likely that Putins suggestion for such a break in the hostilities is meant to reinforce the Russian situation before resuming the conflict.
– He/she is blaming Ukraine instead of Russia for the conflict. As if all fallout from the conflict is to be blamed on the side resisting as opposed to the side invading. This seems illogical, but is an tried and tested Russian argument. If only they surrendered the war would be over…
– Calling Zelensky a dictator. There has been a ban on pro-Russian organisations, which would happen in any country fighting against an invading enemy. There was no “pro-German society” in Britain during WW2 either.
– Referring to the “outlawing” of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. This is false, as what actually happened is the discovery of weapons/equipment/propaganda-materials on the premises of the church in Ukraine. It shows how Russia has corrupted the church and uses its organisation within Ukraine to support the goals of the Putin-regime. The church hasn’t been “banned” either, but the Ukrainian church has instead broken their connection to the Russian Orthodox Church and the control that the Patriarch of Moscow has had on their operations. This man has already been shown to be directly linked to the Putin-regime as a part of the Russian propaganda-system.
This needed to be said. If people aren’t aware of how the information-space is being shaped during this war, it is easy to fall prey to Russian manipulation.
@mariavontheresa:
What The Fuck Are You Talking About?
@mariavontheresa:
Zelenskyy and his army are legally obliged to kill each and every single Russian soldier on Ukrainian territory, until they either decide to pack up and go home, or there are none left to kill. This goes the same for any leader of any country, anywhere in the world, when their country is illegally invaded by a foreign army.
Born in Romania, studied in London, lived in New York, Australia, Portugal and now Ukraine. Ms Emese Abigail Fayk is as Hungarian as Fish & Chips, nothing but a con artist who belongs in a dark Ukranian cell.
