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 would like to express my deepest gratitude to Lilia Pavlovna, a person with a big heart and amazing understanding.
I want to express my deepest gratitude to Lilia Pavlovna, a person with a big heart and amazing understanding. When my husband left me for another woman, it was a real blow. I didn't know what to do or how to move on. At that moment, I was advised to contact Lilia, and I haven't regretted it. She helped me understand the reasons behind what was happening and gave me wise advice that literally opened my eyes. After talking with her, I felt relief, calm, and the strength to fight for my happiness. Over time, the situation changed—my husband returned, our relationship improved, and our home became warm and peaceful again. Thank you, Lilia Pavlovna, for helping people not give up and find a way out when it seems all is lost. I'll leave my contact information for anyone who really needs help (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for regular calls).
Feedback on fortune telling – everything came true!
I never believed in cards before, but after talking to one woman, my opinion changed. She described my current situation very accurately, even though I barely told her anything. I said there would be problems at work, and... three days later, I was told I was being laid off. But she helped me react correctly and even suggested what to do next. I highly recommend her – here's her number: +1 (646) 377-9379.
I hereby express my sincere gratitude to Lilia for her professional assistance in restoring my personal relationship. Thanks to her sensitive approach, tact, and deep understanding of human psychology, I was able to bring back my loved one and restore harmony in my family. I deeply appreciate your participation, support, and ability to inspire inner change. I wish you continued success and grateful clients!

Lily has a special energy. From the first minute of conversation, you feel calm. She speaks simply, but to the point. She doesn't judge. Thanks to her work, I realized that our crisis isn't the end. She helped me remove negativity, cleared our relationship of everything that had stuck over the years, and gave us the opportunity to start a new dialogue. My husband himself noticed how everything changed. He became softer, closer. We started talking like before. I didn't believe it was possible to save a family when it was so painful. But now I do. And it's all thanks to her. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (regular call)
