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.

Before Lily, there was irritation, coldness, and arguments out of the blue in our home. We were both tired, but didn't know how to get out of it. At first, we didn't believe that someone from the outside could really help. But after the first meeting, we felt relief. It was like turning on the light in a dark room. Lily removed what was dragging us down - old grievances, misunderstandings, scraps of other people's attitudes. Now it's as if we are building a relationship anew - on a clean slate. And this is her great merit. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433 - regular communication)
I wrote to Lilya in tears, not eating or sleeping for three days… My husband left me for another woman, saying he didn't love me anymore and that he was tired. We had been together for 17 years and had two children. I was absolutely devastated. Lilya didn't just listen – she immediately saw that there was a disconnect between us. She worked with me for several days, cleansing me and performing rituals to restore my connection. And a week later, he came to me himself. In tears. He said he couldn't live without me and asked for forgiveness. I still can't believe it happened. Thank you, Lilya. You saved my family. Contacts +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
Feedback on fortune telling - everything came true down to the last detail
I had a Tarot reading done by this clairvoyant. I was shocked - she described my life and inner experiences so accurately. She predicted events for the coming months, and some of them have already come true. She was especially helpful in matters of relationships, now I understand where to go and with whom I should continue communicating, and with whom I shouldn't. A very competent and sensitive woman, you can feel that she works with her soul. Contact number: +1 (646) 377-9379. I recommend her with all my heart!
When a loved one leaves, it seems like the world is collapsing. My husband simply left, saying that he "fell out of love." I turned to Lilia, she ran a diagnostic and said that there was discord between us, caused by the intervention of another woman. Everything matched. Lilia helped to remove this negativity, performed a ritual to restore the relationship. A month later, my husband returned. We are now going to a family psychologist, but without Lilia, nothing would have worked out. Thank you! Her contacts (+380638055486 - this is her WhatsApp or Viber and there is a regular number where you can call her +19297133433)
Now our family is stronger than ever. Thank you, Lilia!
My husband and I were on the brink of divorce and no longer believed anything could be fixed. But fate brought Lilia and I together, and it was a true miracle! I found her in New York, and she helped us find our way back to each other. She showed us the importance of understanding our partners, working on ourselves, and not being afraid to seek a solution, even when it seems all is lost. Now our family is stronger than ever. Thank you, Lilia! (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for regular calls)
