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 want to write because Oksana really helped me. I messaged her on Viber: +380937555708. First, I had a fortune-telling, and everything matched—the past, the present, the thoughts of the person I love. Then she performed a love ritual to cleanse me of negativity. I really felt the changes: I could breathe easier, my constant fears went away, and my relationship started to improve. She helped me get my loved one back and restore trust in my family. I recommend her to anyone looking for real help.
A good fortune teller clairvoyant predicts the future
I also want to leave my feedback about fortune telling. I was at a crossroads, unsure what to do with my work and confused in my personal life. I contacted a tarot reader and clairvoyant on the recommendation of this number: +16462427319. She's simply amazing! She sees the past and future like a book, and her readings are very clear and understandable. She lifted my block on my personal life and suggested ways to overcome illnesses and problems. Now, all her predictions are coming true, one after another. I'm very grateful for her help!
I would like to leave a review about Matrona and express my sincere gratitude to her.
I want to leave a review about Matrona and express my sincere gratitude to her. When I turned to her, my personal life was completely destroyed. The man I loved had left me for another woman and stopped being interested in me and our family. I felt betrayed and completely alone. Matrona listened carefully to me and immediately saw many details that I hadn't even had time to share. Her words instilled the hope I sorely needed. I decided to trust her and have never regretted it. Over time, the situation began to change. My loved one began to take the initiative, seek reconciliation, and remember our best moments. Everything happened gradually, but very noticeably. Eventually, he returned home and admitted that he didn't want to lose our family. For me, this was a true miracle. I smile again, make plans, and feel like a happy woman. Thank you, Matrona, for your help and support during one of the most difficult periods of my life. Her number is +380630228999 Viber/WhatsApp

If you're looking for someone truly gifted, not just someone trying to rip you off, I highly recommend clairvoyant Maria. Her number is +18473130212 (Viber). She accurately reads the past and predicts the future down to the smallest detail. She helped me a lot: she removed a long-standing curse and a strong evil eye that were holding me back in my life. Maria works very gently and safely, using only white magic and prayers. It's very convenient that you can contact her remotely (via photo), and the results are simply amazing. She helps bring loved ones back and improve the atmosphere in your family and business. A person with a huge heart and true strength!
