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.

When my husband left, I was in despair. It seemed like my whole life had lost its meaning. I tried everything...talking, persuading, friends' advice, but nothing helped. Then I decided to turn to Raisa. I'll be honest: at first I was skeptical, but her rituals really do work! After her help, everything began to change literally before my eyes. My husband, who hadn't even wanted to talk to me, suddenly took the initiative, wrote, called, and started looking for meetings. And a short time later, he returned home, and I felt loved again. These rituals seemed to open his eyes and lifted the coldness that had stood between us. Now our family is once again filled with peace, love, and happiness. I thank Raisa with all my heart for her help and for bringing back what's most precious to me—my husband and family. Her power and rituals are a true miracle! Here's her number: +380992927182, Viber/WhatsApp.
I hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to contact her. Honestly, I don't regret it. She explained my situation in detail and described a person I hadn't even mentioned. She gave me advice on how to proceed, and it really helped. After the consultation, I felt better and more confident about the future. If anyone needs her contact information, please contact me at +16463779379
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 will leave you her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
If you feel that you can’t do it anymore, that the family is falling apart, don’t give up, find your person.
If you feel that you can't do it anymore, that your family is falling apart — don't give up, find your person. For us, that person was Lilia. It was easy and safe to talk with her even about the most painful things. It was as if she cleared out all the heavy stuff from the space, helping each of us find ourselves and each other again. I don't know where we would be now without her, but we certainly wouldn't be together. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
