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.

If you don't see the point right now, if you cry at night and don't know how to live on - just read this.
If you don't see the point now, if you cry at night and don't know how to live on - just read this. Until recently, I had a family, children, a loved one... And then everything fell apart. I fell ill... in body and soul. I didn't sleep, I didn't eat, I was just slowly fading 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 wasn't smiling anymore. I thought I wouldn't survive. But one day, I was given Lily's contact information, which 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 simply 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 had "seen the light." But even if I hadn't come back, I was already living again. I'm writing this for you, if you're feeling broken-hearted and empty-eyed right now. Please, don't give up. Help is out there. You're not alone. And you will definitely rise again. I don't know how, but it works for Lily, too. She truly has a gift, and I recommend it to you from the bottom of my heart. She's a God-given person. I'll leave my contact information for anyone who really needs help (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for a regular call).
One day, a casual acquaintance mentioned knowing a powerful clairvoyant magician named Alexander, who could see the root of problems and possessed many other extraordinary abilities, helping where others couldn't. He claimed this magician had removed a curse from him, and his life had improved in a very short time. I didn't pay it much attention, but I wrote down his contact information just in case. Luckily. Just a couple of years later, I turned to Alexander with my own problem. My wife had left me and filed for divorce. I didn't understand why or what to do. It was incredibly painful. For several months, I searched for different ways to make peace with her, but nothing worked. So, I decided to message Alexander on WhatsApp at +380971792179 and asked for a consultation. I was very impressed that I didn't even have to tell him anything – Alexander saw my problem himself and explained in detail what had happened and why. And most importantly, he explained what could be done about it. I immediately asked him to help me get my wife back. Alexander agreed. Even more surprisingly, it took him no more than three weeks – the results were delivered ahead of schedule. So if you have any problems, don't hesitate to contact Alexander. I'm confident he can help even in the most challenging situations.
A word about food stamps I am not an elected servant of the people. But people know me as a journalist for the American newspaper "R.Reklama", where my articles are published in Russian. Marina Lagunova
Thank you, Matrona, for giving me back my love, life, and soul.
Matrona is the one who brought back my love and faith in miracles. I write these lines through tears of gratitude... I still can't believe it happened to me. My heart was broken, my soul in tatters, and every day seemed like an eternity without him. We parted so painfully, so unexpectedly. It was as if a part of me had been torn out by the roots. He simply left. Without explanation. Without the right to ask questions. I was silent, but inside I was screaming in pain... I tried everything... talking, trying to let go, advice from friends, psychologists... But nothing could extinguish the fire in my chest. I felt: he was my destiny, and we cannot simply disappear from each other's lives. By the will of fate, or perhaps through prayer, I came across information about the clairvoyant Matrona. At first, I didn't believe it. But that same night, I had a strange, warm dream where a woman in a headscarf told me: Trust. Everything will be as you ask. The next day, I contacted Matrona. When she spoke, I got goosebumps... She knew EVERYTHING. My feelings, our history, even his words that he once told me word for word. I cried throughout the entire consultation. But her voice was so soft, as if it were her own. She said that our union was not over, that he was also suffering, but did not know how to return... And that she would help. She carried out her work with her soul, with prayers, with bright energy. And after just 11 days, he wrote. Simply: I dreamed of you every night. I realized that I can’t live without you. Forgive me. I want to go home... Now he is near. He looks into my eyes, holds my hand, hugs me at night, and every time I remember that very Matrona. Matrona is not just a clairvoyant. She is a woman with a Gift from God. Compassionate, genuine. She helps not out of self-interest, but from the heart. If you are suffering now, if you think all is lost, please do not lose hope. Turn to her. I sincerely believe: if not for her, we would no longer exist. Thank you, Matrona. For returning my love, life, and soul. I pray for your health and happiness every day.
