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?
• Check if the company is legit. Check if the company has a license to operate

• 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.

FORTUNE TELLER MARFA +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram

If you're currently stuck and don't know where to go next... just read this. I myself didn't believe that anyone could really help... until I encountered Marfa. Friends recommended her to me, and, frankly, I was skeptical. But what happened next... is hard to describe in words. From the very first minutes, she began to say things that simply took my breath away. So accurately, so deeply, as if she sees not only the events, but the very essence of what is happening. The past, the present... and even where it is all leading. It wasn't just fortune-telling; it felt like you were being completely read. She doesn't just talk, she helps. She gives understanding, pulls you out of the most difficult situations, restores faith when it is already gone. After talking with her, real changes began to happen in my life. I still can't explain it logically, but the fact remains... it became easier, answers appeared, I found support. She literally saved me and my family. And for this, I will always be grateful. There are almost no people like her left... strong, precise, with vast experience. I'm not the only one who's proven this. If you're looking for help... this might be the chance you can't miss. Here's her number: +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram
 

Thanks to Lilia for saving the family.

I don't know how to explain it... I'm just crying with happiness. Six months ago, my husband filed for divorce, saying he didn't love me. After the ceremony, everything seemed to turn upside down—he started seeking out meetings himself, asking for forgiveness, saying he missed me. Now we're back together, and every day I thank fate for meeting you. Her contact information is +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
 

Ilya Kolmanovsky on the brain, stress, and intuition

Ilya Kolmanovsky on the brain, stress, and intuition
In October, an interesting meeting with Ilya Kolmanovsky took place in Manhattan. He was born into a family of psychologists, holds a PhD in biology, graduated from Moscow State University, and is a popularizer of science, now living in London. Some listeners have listened to his podcast, "The Naked Mole Rat." His lectures and podcasts are listened to by thousands of people worldwide, and now New Yorkers had the chance to hear him in person.

Clairvoyant New York

I recently contacted Emelie for advice via Viber. I hesitated for a long time, but from the very first minute of our conversation, I knew I'd made the right choice. Emelie was a very warm, attentive, and understanding person. She immediately grasped the essence of my problem and helped me see the situation from a different perspective. During our conversation, I felt calm and confident—everything she said resonated deeply within me. She explained in detail what I should pay attention to and suggested the best course of action to change my life for the better. After our conversation, I felt a sense of lightness, as if a weight of doubt had been lifted from my shoulders. I especially liked that Emelie speaks sincerely, without judgment, without intimidating or imposing anything—on the contrary, she gives me inner support and confidence that everything can be changed if I act correctly. I am very grateful to her for her participation, support, and kind words. After our conversation, I felt a lot of things fall into place, and most importantly, I began to believe in myself and my abilities. If you need a hint right now, or just someone to listen and help you find answers, I sincerely recommend contacting Emelie. If you need a consultation, a fortune-telling, or a ritual, message her on Viber or WhatsApp: +380500147707
 

I turned to Lily at a time when I had already stopped believing in miracles.

I turned to Lilya at a time when I'd already stopped believing in miracles. The house felt empty, and my heart felt heavy. Lilya listened to me so attentively that I felt she knew my feelings better than I did. She said, "You'll still hear him call your name, and there will be real warmth in his voice." A few days later, my husband called. His voice was shaking, he apologized, and said he felt a strong need to come back. As he stood at the door, I realized: sometimes miracles come through people. Lilya is one of them. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
