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 very surprised by her strength and professionalism, she is a person with a capital letter!!!
Hey guys, I want to tell you my story and thank the person who helped me and my family! Seven months ago, my husband suddenly started changing, beyond recognition. Friends and family were surprised what was happening to him. I started withdrawing from me, and the children began to irritate him! As a result, he left us and blocked me. I was in tears and started calling every magician and fortune teller I could get help. But everything was to no avail... Until I found Bella, a very nice girl and a very good magician. I had a diagnosis from her and was amazed by her words, everything she said was so spot on, describing people's names and situations. What I realized was that she would definitely help me. I did everything she told me, strictly according to her instructions. And within the time frame she said, she brought my husband back to the family, the same man he used to be. I am very amazed by her strength and professionalism, she is a real Person!!! +380634300493 Bella Telegram. Thank you, dear, for everything you have done for me and my loved ones.
Lilia is an amazing person! I felt like there was a "wall" between my husband and me, even though everything had been wonderful before. After the consultation and the harmonization ritual, everything changed: we started talking again, laughing, and planning for the future. Even the children noticed how warm and calm it was at home. Thank you so much! I'm writing her number (380638055486, Viber, WhatsApp). +19297133433

After months of coldness and arguments with my husband, I saw no way out. Friends recommended that I contact Lilia. Her clairvoyance was amazingly accurate—she immediately saw the root of the problem, which I hadn't even suspected. Lilia gave me advice that helped me reconnect with my husband and regain his love. Now we are happy together, and I am eternally grateful to Lilia for her help! I'm writing to her on Viber and WhatsApp (+380638055486) and her regular number (+19297133433).
