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.

Today we are a family. A real one. And this is her great merit.
We turned to Lilya when we had almost decided to break up. We lived close, but were like strangers - each in their own world of pain and grievances. From the very first conversation with Lilya, it became clear: she sees deeper than just words. She felt our pain, our fear, our fatigue. It became easier to breathe with her. It became possible to talk without shouting. She literally lifted the burden from us that we had been dragging for years. Lilya helped bring respect, understanding and warmth back to our home. Today we are a family. A real one. And this is her great merit. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433 - regular communication)

Thank you, Lilia, for your sensitive heart and professionalism!
When I first contacted Lilia, I was at the brink of despair—my husband had left, and I didn't know how to restore our relationship. Lilia listened carefully, performed a ritual, and gave specific recommendations. Within just a few weeks, we began to rebuild trust and communication. Now we're back together, and our marriage is stronger than ever. Thank you, Lilia, for your compassionate heart and professionalism! I'm contacting her on Viber and WhatsApp (+380638055486) and her regular number (+19297133433).
When the family was falling apart, no one could help... Only Lilia.
When my family was falling apart, no one could help... Only Lilya. She heard my pain, felt my heart. She didn't just bring my husband back—she brought me back herself. After her rituals, everything began to change. Now I look at my husband—and there's love in his eyes again. It's as if time had turned back. Lilya, you are my star in the dark night.

When I thought that my husband and I could no longer fix anything, I found Lilia in New York.
When I thought my husband and I couldn't fix things, I found Lilya in New York on Telegram. I didn't even know such incredible support and attention to every word existed! She helped not only bring my husband back, but also restore our love. Every piece of advice was thought out to the last detail. Lilya made our family whole and happy again. We are happy we found her! If you don't see the point now, if you cry at night and don't know how to live on—just read this. Just recently, I had a family, children, a loved one... And then everything fell apart. I became ill... in body and soul. I didn't sleep, I didn't eat, I just slowly faded away. And then he left. Quietly. Without explanation. All that remained was emptiness and silence. And the children, who looked at me and didn't understand why Mom was no longer smiling. I thought I wouldn't survive. But one day, I was given Lilya's contact information, and it helped. I called, almost in disbelief, simply out of hopelessness... And that was the beginning of my comeback. She didn't judge. She didn't promise miracles. She just helped. Slowly, piece by piece, I began to put myself back together. Strength returned. I began to sleep. The fear went away. Then something happened that I no longer believed in. He came back. He said it was as if he "saw the light." But even if he hadn't come back... I was already living again. I'm writing this for you, if you are now heartbroken and empty-eyed. Please - don't give up. Help is there. You are not alone. And you will definitely get up. I don't know how, but it works for Lily too. She truly has a gift, and I advise you from the bottom of my heart. This is a person from God. Contacts (+380638055486 WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for a regular call)
