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 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)
Lilya is a person who entered our lives at the most difficult moment.
Lilya is a person who entered our lives at the most difficult moment. We did not talk for weeks, quarrels became the norm. It felt like everything was lost. But Lilya helped us see each other not as enemies, but as people who once loved. She subtly and carefully helped to untangle the tangle of grievances, taught us to let go of the old and fill the house with light. Now I look at my husband with gratitude, not with reproach. Thank you, Lilya, for being there. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433 - regular communication)
I want to share my story and thank the fortune teller Martha for helping me save my family.
I want to share my story and thank the fortune teller Marfa for helping me save my family. I found her by chance, reading reviews on a Google forum where people said she really helps people. I was desperate at the time: my husband had left me for another woman, the house was empty, my heart was heavy, and I didn't know what to do. When I first turned to Marfa, I was amazed that I didn't even have to tell her anything. She explained everything herself: about the situation, our personalities, and what had happened between us. Every word she said was true. I felt that I was truly dealing with a person with a powerful gift and a big heart. Marfa performed rituals to bring my husband back and cleanse our relationship of negativity. She told me to wait a little and have faith. And so it happened: a few weeks later, my husband returned home himself, asked for forgiveness, and said he realized who he truly loves. Now there is warmth, mutual understanding, and love in our house again. I'm grateful to fate that I found Marfa just then. If you've lost hope, don't be afraid to reach out to her. She doesn't just see your situation; she feels your soul and truly helps. Her number is +380931150260, Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram.
Lilia is an amazing person with powerful energy. She's not just a clairvoyant, she's like a family member who feels your heart. After her help, I became calmer, stopped crying, and soon our relationship began to improve. My husband came back, and now we live in peace and harmony. It's a miracle, and all thanks to Lilia!
