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 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.

The fortune telling was very accurate - everything came true!

Girls, I'm sharing my experience. I ordered a Tarot card reading from clairvoyant Natalia. At first I thought it was just for fun, but when she started telling me, I was really scared. She described my situation with a man without a single leading question: his character, problems in relationships, she even said that there was another woman who influences him - and it was true! A couple of weeks later, everything she predicted began to come true. I'm still in shock. She has very strong energy. I recommend her to anyone who wants fortune telling not "for fun", but for real. Here is her number: +1 929 740 4563
 

If you've lost everything, don't give up. Turn to Matrona.

I never thought I would write something like this. Men aren't supposed to cry, to talk about their feelings... But I sobbed. Like a child. Because I lost the most precious thing: my family. My wife, my children, my home, my warmth, my meaning in life. I destroyed it all with my own hands. I fell in love with another woman. I thought it was love. But it turned out to be emptiness. A lie, an illusion. My wife didn't forgive me. She left. She took the children. I was left alone, in silence, full of guilt. I gave up. I tried to get her back, but she didn't even want to talk to me. I ruined everything. And then I decided to take a desperate step... I wrote to Matrona. I found her on the internet and at first I was even ashamed to admit why I was writing. And she listened. Without reproaches, without ridicule. She simply said: If you are ready to fight... I will help. She worked with me, with my energies, with my soul. It was as if she opened my eyes. I began to truly change. Not in words, but in thoughts, in actions. I began to pray. I waited, I believed. And a miracle happened. My wife responded to my message for the first time. Then we met. She said she felt that I had become different. It was as if an invisible force had pushed aside the wall between us. Two months later, she returned home. With children. With tears. With love. Matrona, you saved my family. You saved me. I don’t know how to thank you. I just pray for you every night and tell others, if you have lost everything, don’t give up. Turn to her. As long as your heart beats, it’s not too late. Her number is +380630228999 Viber/WhatsApp

Clairvoyant Lily became a real miracle in my life!

I didn't believe it was possible... But clairvoyant Lilia became a true miracle in my life! After a difficult breakup with my husband, I was in despair. We hadn't spoken for months, and the house felt empty. After turning to Lilia, I received not just hope, but real help. Within a week, he started contacting me, and a month later, he returned home. Now everything is different for us – more understanding, love, and respect. Huge thanks to Lilia for her gift and care! I'll leave my contact information for anyone who really needs help (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for regular calls).
