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 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.

Clairvoyant New York Review

Ladies, this might be helpful to someone. I debated for a long time whether to write or not, but I finally decided to share. I contacted her because of love—my boyfriend had left me, and I was desperate. She looked into the situation and said there was still room for improvement. She worked on restoring our relationship and removing negativity. After a while, we started communicating normally again. She also helped me with my health—after her work, I really felt better. Contact: +1 (929) 740-4563

Clairvoyants in New York reviews

I want to leave my review because I once searched for information on forums and was hesitant about whether to seek her out. I turned to Daria when I was going through a difficult time in my life—problems in love, constant worry, and a loss of energy. We communicated via WhatsApp, and she gave me a reading, detailing my past and present very accurately, and a lot of it matched. Then she told me there was something negative that was preventing me from living a normal life and building relationships. She worked with me and gave me recommendations. Afterward, I really felt better—both mentally and physically. My relationship also improved. I am very grateful to her for her help and support. She is a good, honest person.

Review of a clairvoyant. She really helps.

I want to write because Oksana really helped me. I messaged her on Viber: +380937555708. First, I had a fortune-telling, and everything matched—the past, the present, the thoughts of the person I love. Then she performed a love ritual to cleanse me of negativity. I really felt the changes: I could breathe easier, my constant fears went away, and my relationship started to improve. She helped me get my loved one back and restore trust in my family. I recommend her to anyone looking for real help.
