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 am incredibly grateful to clairvoyant Lilia! When my husband left our family, I was in despair. Lilia immediately felt my pain and explained everything as if she had known us our whole lives. After her help, my husband returned home, our relationship improved, and love and understanding reigned in our home once again. Thank you for saving my family and giving me hope! Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp and Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
Lily helped me see that love had not disappeared, I just needed to open the way to it.
There was a deep longing in my heart; I cried almost every day. Lilia helped me see that love wasn't gone, I just needed to open the way to it. My beloved and I are together again. But I also thank her for giving me back to myself. She's a very warm, kind, and sensitive person. It's like there's more light around her.

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).
The family was on the verge of divorce, but Lilia helped
My husband and I were together for 12 years, we had two children. Everything was heading towards divorce - he became cold, was constantly at work, then admitted that he fell in love with another woman. I was desperate. I read about Lilia on one of the forums. I didn’t decide right away, but everything matched: the symptoms, the distance, the strange behavior of my husband... Lilia said that she saw interference, that he was “taken” for a reason. I started working - I did an energy cleansing, then a ritual to restore feelings. A week later, my husband began to return - at first neutrally, then he began to say that all this was some kind of nonsense. A month later, he returned home. We started all over again. I would not have coped without her. Lilia really saved my family. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433 - regular communication)
When it seems that everything is falling apart, and there is only pain and resentment ahead, a person appears who instills hope. For our family, this person was Lilia. Her support, wisdom and subtle understanding of the situation helped us not only stop on the edge, but also turn to face each other. Thanks to her, we learned to hear again, forgive, speak without reproaches. Lilia removed the heavy negativity that had been accumulating between us for years. Thank her from the bottom of my heart - for our saved family and for the warm light that she brought to our home.
