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

• 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.

Fortune Telling New York

I tried many people, but only Galina Vishnevskaya helped. I want to write this for those who live far away and are unsure whether remote help works. When my husband left me for another woman, I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. I couldn't afford to go to Moscow—I had small children to raise and was completely broke. I searched for help online, turning to various "healers," but they simply lied to me. In desperation and tears, I decided to contact Galina Vishnevskaya on WhatsApp. Galina scans people from photos online as if you were sitting right in front of her! She's incredibly accurate at fortune-telling and predicting the future—she named all the hidden causes of discord that no one knew about. It turned out that my husband had been under a powerful love spell, and I was under a theft and a curse. Galina Vishnevskaya remotely performed effective rituals to remove negativity and bring back my loved one. Three weeks later, my husband called me himself, cried into the phone, apologized, and came home that same day! Distance is no obstacle to her strength. Many thanks to Galina!

Review of clairvoyant Daria – honest help and accurate fortune telling

I was looking for a trusted clairvoyant for a personal consultation. I found Daria and was very pleased. Pros: Accurate Tarot readings. Helped me bring back my loved one (the situation was almost hopeless). I felt better after the negativity was removed. No fluff, everything was clear and to the point. Daria is a true professional. She works remotely, which is very convenient. I'm leaving her numbers for contact: +380996826298 and +1 646 377 93 79 (Viber/WhatsApp).
 

Thank you, Matrona, for saving our family and giving us a new happy life!

I still can't hold back my tears when I recall the despair I felt before meeting the clairvoyant Matrona. My family was crumbling before my eyes: my husband had left, and there were constant arguments, pain, resentment, and a feeling of utter hopelessness at home. It seemed as if happiness had left our home forever. When I was advised to turn to Matrona, I had almost lost hope. But she became the last ray of light in a dark tunnel. From the very first words, Matrona saw the entire situation as if she had lived it with me. She told me about what was happening in our family, the reasons for the discord, and the negativity that had surrounded us for many years. After her help, true miracles began to happen in our lives. My husband took a step forward, returned to the family, and gradually love, trust, and mutual understanding returned between us. The constant conflicts disappeared, and the heaviness that seemed to weigh on us every day disappeared. The house was filled with warmth, peace, and happiness. Today we live harmoniously, make plans for the future, and thank fate every day for meeting Matrona. She didn't just help me get my husband back; she gave me back my family, my faith in happiness, and my desire to live on. My deepest respects and endless gratitude to this amazing person with a big heart. If you're currently on the brink of despair, as I once was, know that there is hope. Thank you, Matrona, for saving my family and giving me a new, happy life! I'll share her number: +380630228999 (Viber/WhatsApp).
 

MOLFARKA VARVARA +380632574828

I still can't hold back my tears when I recall the day I turned to Varya, a molfarka. My family was crumbling before my eyes: my husband had left me for another woman, there were constant arguments at home, and despair and emptiness filled my soul. It seemed there was no hope left. But Varya saw everything for herself, and without asking any questions, she explained my situation as if she'd known us all her life. She pointed out the causes of our problems, spoke about the negativity that surrounded our family, and offered to help. After her work, I felt an incredible relief. It was as if a heavy burden had lifted from my shoulders. Peace, warmth, and harmony returned to the house. The most amazing thing happened later: just seven days later, my husband returned home on his own, having finally ended his relationship with his mistress. He became a different person—attentive, caring, and sincere. I am infinitely grateful to Varya for her help, support, and wisdom. She gave me back not only my husband, but also my faith in happiness, love, and a family future. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who finds themselves in a difficult life situation and has lost hope. Thank you, Varya, for a true miracle! Tel. +380632574828 Viber/WhatsApp
 

Huge thanks to the fortune teller and healer Lilia!!!!

A huge thank you to the fortune teller and healer Lilia!!!! She has the gift of clairvoyance and helps with love affairs. My mother went to her and she saved her from a curse, so I decided to turn to her too, and it was a good decision. Firstly, she sees the past, the present, and your problem (my mother and I didn't say anything to her; she told us all the details herself). Secondly, she cleanses people and removes negativity. And she helped me overcome loneliness and brought my husband back to the family. I recommend her a hundred times over and will continue to recommend her to everyone. I will leave her contact information: +380 93 266 5520 (WhatsApp) +1 (929) 713-3433 - Lilia (USA)
