INVESTMENT FRAUD

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?

• 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.

He left, but Lilia helped bring back not just a person, but love.

When my husband left, I felt like I was just dying inside. 7 years together, and he says: "I don't feel anything anymore." I begged, cried, called - it was all useless. I heard about Lilya from a colleague. At first I didn't believe it. But after the first conversation with Lilya, I realized - she sees. She said things that no one could know. We started working. Lilya did a cleansing, removed the negativity, did a ritual to restore the relationship. After 2 weeks, he came himself, as if he woke up. He said that he was in some kind of numbness all the time, which pulled him away. Now we are together, we have turned a new page. And I know - if it were not for Lilya, I would not have written this review with a smile on my face. Her contacts (+380638055486 - WhatsApp Viaiber; +19297133433 - regular communication)

RTVI US: 25 years of trust, truth, and TV pleasure
Russian-language television in America celebrated a quarter-century alongside its viewers. Of course, that's enough time to raise children, transform cities, and change lives. But some values remain unchanged.

Thanks to her support, we reconnected with someone dear to me.

I came to Lilia on a friend's recommendation. I didn't expect the conversation to have such an impact. It was as if she looked right into my soul and saw the feelings I'd been hiding. Thanks to her support, we reconnected with someone dear to me. I feel calm and confident. Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
 

Lily truly sees, feels and speaks only to the point.

I found Lilia almost by accident, but now I understand – there are no accidents. She listened carefully, laid out my cards, and described my situation so accurately that I was simply speechless. The most incredible thing is that she helped me get my husband back, even though I had almost lost hope. Lilia truly sees, feels, and speaks only to the point. I am so grateful to her! Her phone number is +380638055486, she has Viber and WhatsApp, and she also has another US number: +19297133433.
