INVESTMENT FRAUD

Cryptocurrency investment scams are on the rise. These scammers seek victims on social media, dating apps, and text messaging apps. Under the leadership of Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez, the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office combats internet scams with preventive measures and public education. A virtual currency unit has been established that deals with such crimes and advocates for increased protection measures.
 
SIGNS THAT SOMEONE IS TRYING TO INVOLVE YOU INTO A CRYPTOCURRENCY SCAM
• You are added to a WhatsApp or Telegram group chat that offers advice on how to invest in cryptocurrency and promises to get rich quick.
• You receive the “wrong message” from a stranger who is trying to make friends and talking about how much money he has made investing in cryptocurrency.
• Someone on Facebook posts and brags about how much money they've made in cryptocurrency and says they can help you get rich.
• Someone you have never met in person begins to give you advice and promises about investing in cryptocurrency; investment returns seem too good to be true.
• A financial advisor or cryptocurrency customer service communicates with you via Telegram or WhatsApp.
• You can receive small amounts of money at the beginning, but you cannot withdraw money without having to pay tax or an additional fee.
• You will be asked to download an app to track your investments from a cryptocurrency website from a company you have never heard of before.
• You are asked to hand over large sums of cash to the company courier in person.
HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF?
• Check if the company is legit. Check if the company has a license to operate
in New York State. Call

• Do not trust cryptocurrency investments. Opportunities that seem too good may not always be true.
• Do not download investment apps from websites that are not verified for cryptocurrency investing.
• Don't install apps that force you to override your phone's security features.
• Do not make a cryptocurrency investment based on the advice of someone you have never met in person.
• Never download programs like AnyDesk that allow remote access to your computer.
• Don't pay extra money to try to get your investment back from a cryptocurrency website.
"By increasing awareness and knowledge in our communities to protect ourselves, we can combat online scammers. Let's work together to keep Brooklyn safe," District Attorney Eric Gonzalez.

Real review: Help from a tarot reader in love

I'm writing because I know how difficult relationships can be. I was having serious problems in my love life, constant arguments, and a feeling of hopelessness. Daria immediately identified the root cause, explained what was holding me back, and helped me resolve the negativity. She also gave me advice on how to avoid making the situation worse. Over time, our relationship began to improve, and there was more warmth and understanding. I am very grateful to her for her help and support. Daria, WhatsApp: +1 646 377 9379.
 

Echo of Babi Yar

Echo of Babi Yar
Thousands of kilometers from Kyiv, in Brooklyn, in a square in Brighton, people gathered not for a formal ceremony; those who are not indifferent to the tragedies of the past and present came, who understand that memory is not only grief, but also responsibility, and perhaps even advice for action.

Clairvoyant New York

If you're looking for help in a difficult life situation and don't know who to turn to, I'm ready to help. My name is Victoria, and I'm a practicing clairvoyant, tarot reader, and rune reader. I've been working with people for many years, helping them find a way out when it seems there's none. I conduct precise situational assessments, sense a person's energy, and identify the root causes of problems—in relationships, money, health, and destiny in general. My work isn't aimed at intimidation, but at providing genuine help and restoring harmony in life. My most frequently asked questions: - Love and Relationships: I help bring back loved ones, restore relationships, eliminate quarrels and coldness, perform love spells, harmonize couples, and attract a serious relationship or marriage. - Fortune Telling and Predictions: I use Tarot cards and runes to read, examine the past, present, and future, and help you understand the right course of action in your situation and what to expect next. - Removing Damage and Negativity: I remove damage, the evil eye, curses, strong negativity, celibacy, envy, and other people's interference. I cleanse the energy of a person and their family, and provide protection. - Money and Work: Rituals to attract money, luck, and clients, help in business and career, removing financial blockages, rituals for successful deals and sales. - Health and Energy: Energy cleansing, relieving fatigue, apathy, anxiety, restoring vitality, and helping with low energy. - Getting rid of addictions: Help in working with the energetic causes of addictions and obsessive-compulsive disorders. I select all rites and rituals strictly individually, without templates. I work carefully, confidentially, and based on the individual's situation. If you feel stagnation in your life, recurring problems, or nothing is working out, then it's time to change something. Phone / Viber: +380 67 990 02 01
