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 thank Lilia from the bottom of my heart - her strength is real.
At first glance, Lilia understood what had happened between my husband and me. Without further ado, she saw the root of the problem—an energy gap, the influence of a stranger, and my inner pain. She conducted profound work, after which the situation began to change rapidly. My husband, who had been like a stranger, began to return in spirit, and then in body. Now we are together, and I feel a harmony between us that I never even knew before. I thank Lilia from the bottom of my heart—her strength is real.

I turned to the clairvoyant Emelie for diagnostics, and she immediately saw the cause of my problems - it turned out that I had been cursed by my man's mistress. I didn't even expect that it would manifest itself so accurately, but a lot coincided with what was happening in my life. Emelie helped to remove this curse, performed a ritual and explained what and how to do next. After her work, it became noticeably easier - both mentally and in relationships. She works calmly, without intimidation and unnecessary words, you can feel that she is a professional in her field. I am very grateful and can safely recommend her to those who are looking for real help. Her number: +380500147707 (Viber)
