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 New York State Department of Finance. Financial hotline Department: 800-342-3736 or visit their website at:www.dfs.ny.gov/who_we_supervise • 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.

I don't know how to explain it... I'm just crying with happiness. Six months ago, my husband filed for divorce, saying he didn't love me. After the ceremony, everything seemed to turn upside down—he started seeking out meetings himself, asking for forgiveness, saying he missed me. Now we're back together, and every day I thank fate for meeting you. Her contact information is +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
Hey guys, I want to tell you my story and thank the person who helped me and my family! Seven months ago, my husband suddenly started changing, beyond recognition. Friends and family were surprised at what was happening to him. I started withdrawing from me, and the children began to irritate him! As a result, he left us and blocked me. I was in tears and started calling every magician and fortune teller I could get help. But everything was to no avail... Until I found Bella, a very nice girl and a very good magician. I had a diagnosis from her and was amazed by her words, everything she said was so spot on, describing people's names and situations. What I realized was that she would definitely help me. I did everything she told me, strictly according to her instructions. And within the time frame she said, she brought my husband back to the family, the same man he used to be. I am very amazed at her strength and professionalism, she is a real Person!!! +380634300493 Bella Telegram. Thank you, dear, for everything you have done for me and my loved ones.
Fortune telling with Nelya - everything came true, I couldn’t believe it!
Girls, if anyone is looking for an accurate tarot reader and clairvoyant, I can recommend Nelya! At first, I contacted her just out of curiosity, but I didn’t expect that she would predict so accurately. I had several questions: what would happen in my relationship with a man and with my career. She described absolutely everything - she said that there were “unresolved issues” in the relationship, and that I would have an important change at work. A month later, everything came true! My husband began to take the initiative, and they offered me a promotion at work. If you want accurate predictions and real changes, write down her number: +7 962 973 89 67 (WhatsApp/calls).
Liliya is my guardian angel. Thanks to her help, my husband returned to the family, and with him - joy, warmth and confidence in the future. She is not just a clairvoyant, she is a person with a big heart. Thank you! Her contacts (+380638055486 - this is her WhatsApp or Viber and there is a regular number where to call her +19297133433)
