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.

Political Mathematics, Youth Protest, and Our Lessons
Political Mathematics, Youth Protest, and Our Lessons No one expected it, but it happened, and starting January 1st, we'll have Zohran Mamdani as our mayor. Just a year ago, even the residents of Queens couldn't have imagined that Zohran Mamdani would soon become mayor of New York City. Marina Lagunova
Thank you, Matrona, for giving me back my love, life, and soul.
Matrona is the one who brought back my love and faith in miracles. I write these lines through tears of gratitude... I still can't believe it happened to me. My heart was broken, my soul in tatters, and every day seemed like an eternity without him. We parted so painfully, so unexpectedly. It was as if a part of me had been torn out by the roots. He simply left. Without explanation. Without the right to ask questions. I was silent, but inside I was screaming in pain... I tried everything... talking, trying to let go, advice from friends, psychologists... But nothing could extinguish the fire in my chest. I felt: he was my destiny, and we cannot simply disappear from each other's lives. By the will of fate, or perhaps through prayer, I came across information about the clairvoyant Matrona. At first, I didn't believe it. But that same night, I had a strange, warm dream where a woman in a headscarf told me: Trust. Everything will be as you ask. The next day, I contacted Matrona. When she spoke, I got goosebumps... She knew EVERYTHING. My feelings, our history, even his words that he once told me word for word. I cried throughout the entire consultation. But her voice was so soft, as if it were her own. She said that our union was not over, that he was also suffering, but did not know how to return... And that she would help. She carried out her work with her soul, with prayers, with bright energy. And after just 11 days, he wrote. Simply: I dreamed of you every night. I realized that I can’t live without you. Forgive me. I want to go home... Now he is near. He looks into my eyes, holds my hand, hugs me at night, and every time I remember that very Matrona. Matrona is not just a clairvoyant. She is a woman with a Gift from God. Compassionate, genuine. She helps not out of self-interest, but from the heart. If you are suffering now, if you think all is lost, please do not lose hope. Turn to her. I sincerely believe: if not for her, we would no longer exist. Thank you, Matrona. For returning my love, life, and soul. I pray for your health and happiness every day.

I'm grateful to Lilia not only for bringing my husband back, but also for helping me find confidence, strength, and inner peace. She's more than just a clairvoyant.
I contacted Lilia during a very difficult time in my life. My husband left our family—one day, he simply said he "stopped feeling" and packed his things. I couldn't believe that everything we'd built over the years was falling apart so easily. We didn't speak for almost a month, he ignored my messages, and then I found out he had someone else. On the advice of a close friend, I decided to contact Lilia. At first, I didn't know what to expect, but already during the first consultation, she told me things no one else knew—details of our relationship, my state, my inner fears. It was astounding. Lilia performed an energy cleansing, removing the negativity that, according to her, surrounded us, and performed a ritual to restore connection. She also gave me recommendations on how to behave, how to work on myself, and which words are important. Ten days later, my husband contacted me himself. At first, just a message. Then a meeting. And three weeks later, he came home. Now we are together, and I feel that he has truly rethought a lot. I'm grateful to Lilia not only for bringing my husband back, but also for helping me find confidence, strength, and inner peace. She's more than just a clairvoyant. She's a guide who works with the soul. I'll leave you her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
