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.

There was a period in my life when absolutely everything was falling apart: I started feeling constantly unwell, doctors couldn't find the cause, and my loved one suddenly distanced himself and left. On the advice of a friend, I turned to this clairvoyant and tarot reader. She performed an accurate Tarot reading and identified a heavy negative influence. After she lifted this burden and established protection, my condition immediately improved, and I felt stronger and more energetic. And most importantly, a couple of weeks later, my loved one contacted me, asked for forgiveness, and we were back together!

When I turned to Lilia Pavlovna, I was in complete chaos, both mentally and at home. My husband had left, there were fights at home, and everything was falling apart at work. I no longer knew where to go or who to turn to. But Lilia saw everything herself, without my words, and told me about my life, my past, and the people around me. Everything matched up down to the last detail! She performed her rituals, cleansed me and everything around me. Since then, a lot has changed: my husband has returned, our relationship has improved, and there is peace and warmth at home again. Even my work has improved: I have gained confidence, new opportunities, as if everything had just fallen into place! Lilia Pavlovna is a truly gifted person. She helps sincerely, from the heart, and most importantly, there really is a result. I am writing this review with gratitude and from the bottom of my heart. May she continue to help those who have lost hope. Here are her contacts: +380 93 266 5520 (WhatsApp) +19297133433 (USA)
A proven fortune-telling tool for a husband's infidelity! Natalya Valerievna on WhatsApp (+380667493555) simply saved my life.
Hi, girls! I'd like to share Natalia Valerievna's contact information. When I suspected my husband was cheating on me, I couldn't sleep. I ran to the local fortune tellers—no one could help at all, they just talked generalities and raked in the money. A friend gave me her WhatsApp number (+380667493555). We called each other by voice; I didn't turn on the camera because I was crying. She looked at our photos, did a Tarot reading, and even went over our horoscopes with digital psychology. Girls, she told me everything about that woman! And I performed a ritual to ward her off. And you know, it worked! Two weeks later, my husband came crawling on his knees to apologize, having blocked her everywhere. Write to her, she really sees!
