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?

"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.

"We are a family again"

My husband left after 7 years of marriage. Without explanation. Said: "I'm tired." I went through hell. Didn't eat, didn't sleep, didn't want to live... I saw Lily's video on TikTok. She spoke simply, but it was as if she looked into my eyes... I wrote. She responded immediately. A week later, my husband came back. He asked to start from scratch. Now we are together. We laugh. We hug. He says: "I realized how much I need you." If it weren't for Lily, I would have been alone. Thank you, Lily, for giving us - women - hope.

Review of fortune teller Marfa: +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram

Review of fortune teller Marfa. I want to express my deepest gratitude to Marfa! I turned to her in despair... my husband had left, our relationship was ruined, and resentment and coldness reigned in the house. Marfa listened attentively, conducted a diagnosis, and said that everything could still be restored with the right approach. After the ritual she performed, I literally felt everything begin to change: my husband began to contact me, mutual understanding developed, and most importantly, the heavy feeling that all was lost disappeared. Now we are back together, and our relationship has become much calmer and more harmonious. Marfa is an amazing person, with strong energy and a kind heart. She is not just a "fortune teller," but a true guide who helps you understand yourself and your relationships. I recommend her to anyone in a similar situation and looking not just for help, but for a real solution. Marfa +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram
 

She brought warmth back into our home.

We lived together for 11 years, but at some point, everything started to fall apart. The house was cold. Words were like glass. The children felt the tension. I didn't know how to fix it. I turned to Lilya on a tip. And it was the best solution. She saw the situation without words. She said there was negativity, arguments, resentment, and energy fatigue. She cleansed me out and gave me advice—not only spiritual but also practical. It's like my husband and I got to know each other all over again. He laughs again. I want to go home again. Lilya, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. You bring me back to life. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (regular call)

Help of the magician New York

Sometimes there comes a time when the usual methods no longer work. A loved one becomes a stranger, relationships crumble or die out, luck fades, and anxiety and fatigue accumulate within. Talking, waiting, and trying to change things yield no results. In such situations, it is important to understand why exactly this is happening. Often, the cause is hidden deeper than it seems: accumulated negativity, energetic influence, or internal imbalance can subtly affect life and hinder progress. People seek help when: - A loved one has left or has cooled towards the relationship. - The same problems constantly recur in their personal life. - A feeling of loneliness, anxiety, and uncertainty appears. - Financial and life opportunities seem to pass them by. - They want to understand what lies ahead and what the right decision will be. What kind of help is provided: - Work with the love sphere - restoring relationships, returning a loved one, harmonizing feelings. - Energy cleansing - removing the evil eye, damage, and other people's negative influence, restoring balance. Fortune telling and situational analysis – Tarot card readings, analysis of the past and possible future events. Support during difficult times – when you lack strength and confidence. Attracting good luck – working with money and life flows. Each situation is considered individually, without cookie-cutter solutions or empty promises. The main goal is to find the cause of what is happening and help change the situation for the better. Help is available in person and remotely. Complete confidentiality. If life has entered a difficult period and it seems like everything is going in circles, sometimes it is a timely request for support that helps put everything in its place.
