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 have always been skeptical about clairvoyants, but after contacting Daria, my doubts disappeared. She predicted that I would have a difficult period in my life, and how to act correctly to improve the situation. All her predictions came true! She removed an energy block from me and gave recommendations that helped me improve my personal life. If anyone has doubts, contact her, Daria is a professional. Her contact number is: +16463779379.
When Lilia performed the ritual, tears flowed from my eyes, but not from pain, but from hope that, for the first time in a long time, ignited inside me.
As Lilia performed the ritual, tears flowed from my eyes, but not from pain—from the hope that ignited within me for the first time in a long time. A few days later, my husband admitted that he felt me as if he could hear my heart from a distance. He said he realized that we were still one. I don't know how to describe it other than as a miracle that Lilia helped create. Her phone number is +380638055486, she has Viber and WhatsApp, and another US number is +19297133433.
I had previously contacted various fortune tellers, but to no avail. Only Daria really helped. She tells fortunes very well — without unnecessary questions, everything is clear and to the point. She said that my energy was blocked in my personal life, and explained why everything was falling apart. I was worried about my ex, I couldn’t forget and didn’t understand why he left. Daria said that he was “taken away” and performed a ritual to return. After some time, he wrote to me himself, started looking for meetings, admitted that he missed me. I honestly didn’t expect it. Daria also removed the negativity from me — it became easier to breathe, my sleep improved, the heaviness in my head went away. Before her, I always felt bad, as if I had no strength. She is simple, without show-offs, explains everything in understandable language. No intimidation or divorce. She works on WhatsApp — +1 (646) 377-9379. She responds quickly, is supportive, even just talking to her is nice. Thank you very much, Daria! You really helped me. I recommend you to everyone who is at a dead end and does not know where to go.

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.
