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?

• Do not make a cryptocurrency investment based on the advice of someone you have never met in person.

"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.

A review of a clairvoyant who really helps – sharing my experience

I want to tell you how a clairvoyant and tarot reader helped me. I turned to her after breaking up with my boyfriend. My soul was aching, nothing worked, and I felt like something negative was affecting me. This woman immediately determined that there had indeed been energetic interference. She shared precise facts about my life, even though I hadn't told her anything. She performed a cleansing ritual and told me when to expect contact from him. Everything came true literally day by day! Now we're back together. She truly sees the future, reads very accurately, and helps with love, removes negativity, brings loved ones back, and heals the soul and body. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for real results, not fairy tales. Here's her number: +1 (646) 377-9379
 

Marfa is more than just a fortune teller. She is a conductor of light.

Martha saved me. I don’t know how to find the right words, because everything I went through is impossible to describe simply. It wasn’t pain... it was devastation. As if everything alive had been burned out inside me. My husband left. He just got up and left, as if he had never loved me. He said he stopped loving me. He said he was tired. And I stood rooted to the spot, with a mug in my hand and couldn’t breathe. After that, the days merged into a black shroud. I didn’t eat, I didn’t sleep. I woke up and didn’t want to wake up. The children asked where dad was, but I just remained silent and died even more. Everything we had was gone. He was with another woman. He lived with her. He laughed with her. And it was as if I had died for him. I didn’t believe in anything. Until I accidentally saw a review about Martha. At first, I brushed it off. But then, in some kind of desperate hysteria, I simply wrote to her. And she answered. From the first words, warmth. Calm. She didn't ask stupid questions. She just said... You haven't lost everything yet. But you're on the edge. And she started working. I don't know how, I don't know what exactly she did, but it got easier with each passing day. I started having dreams where he came back. I started feeling like there was something between us again. Three weeks later, he came back. Himself. Without threats, without shouting. He just came. He fell on his knees and begged for forgiveness. He said that something had happened to him, that it was as if he had woken up. He looked into my eyes as if for the first time. I sobbed like a child. Now he is with us again. With the children. With me. We are learning to live again. And if it weren't for Marfa, I wouldn't be writing this letter. I might not have written anything at all... Marfa is not just a fortune teller. She is a conductor of light. She is the last hope. Her phone number is +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram

He left for another...

He left for another. Younger. I am 6 years older than him, and he always noticed it... I was silent when he said he didn't love me. Silently I packed his things. And then I just stayed in an empty apartment, with a ring on my finger and tears on my cheeks. My friend said: "Write to Lilya. She knows how to get me back." I didn't believe it... but I wrote. He came back 5 days later. He said he thought about me every day. He cried. He asked for forgiveness. I don't know what Lilya did, but it was a real miracle... Lilya, you are not just a woman - you are an angel. Her contacts: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433 (regular call).
