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.

I am a skeptic. But when all the methods to get my wife back didn't work, I decided to try. Lilya didn't promise magic - she worked. After her sessions, my wife first started getting in touch, then agreed to meet, and a month later she came home. Now we are on our second honeymoon. If it weren't for Lilya, I would have lost everything. (+380638055486 WhatsApp Viber) +19297133433(USA)

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.

Sometimes fate presents us with trials when it seems all is lost... That's how it was for me. My husband left, and there was coldness, resentment, and unspoken feelings between us. I was beside myself, crying at night and praying to somehow bring back what was so dear to my heart. On the advice of a friend, I turned to Raisa, and now I understand it was a decision sent from above. Raisa greeted me like family: with warmth, attention, and a special light in her eyes. She felt my pain without words. She performed a ritual, telling me everything as if she had known us for years. Within a few days, I noticed changes: my husband began asking how I was doing, then he called and asked to meet... And then everything seemed to fall into place. Now we are together again, and I thank fate every day for bringing me to Raisa. Thanks to her, love, understanding, and tenderness have returned to our home. Raisa isn't just a fortune teller; she's like an angel who helps hearts find each other again. Dear Raisa, thank you for your gift, for your kind heart, and for bringing back my happiness. May your life be as full of light as you give to others! +380992927182 Viber
