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.

Review of a clairvoyant – she helped me get my loved one back
I want to leave a review about a wonderful clairvoyant and tarot reader whom I turned to during a very difficult time. My relationship with my loved one was crumbling, and there was a lot of pain, hurt, and misunderstanding. I found this woman by chance, through a recommendation. She is very kind and attentive, and immediately understood my situation, as if she knew everything in advance. She did a tarot reading and then removed the negativity that, as it turned out, was interfering with our relationship. Two weeks later, my loved one contacted me, and we made up. Things are much better now! Here's her number: +1 (646) 377-9379 – I highly recommend her to anyone looking for real help, not just a "chat."
Recommend a good fortune teller and tarot reader. My experience.
I searched for a long time for someone who could lift my negativity and actually help, not just make promises. I found clairvoyant Daria. She's a very powerful tarot reader and a bright person. She ended my streak of bad luck and helped me improve my personal life. I recommend her to everyone; she's always available and tells it like it is. You can contact her here: +1 646 377 93 79 (WhatsApp, Viber)
I want to tell you about my life... about how I got to know Martha.
Good afternoon. I want to tell you about my life... about how I met Martha. My life has never been easy. Everywhere you look, there’s a lot of experimentation: either there’s no money coming out of everything I need, then people are happy, they’re checking how much more I can get. My heart sank at the selfishness and feeling that no one needed me. It seemed that the darkness would never come, but would end with each day. And one time, when it seemed that I could see nothing else, my mother introduced me to the woman who had changed my life. Vaughn stretched out her hand to me when I fell into the middle, supported me in everything, in my life, in everyday difficulties and in my inner doubts. For the first time in a long time, I experienced warmth and a turbo that I had never expected in the world. With her help, I learned to trust people again and believe in goodness. My heart gradually filled with light, and I realized: in the dark days there is hope, after the greatest disappointments you can rise. Now I am strong, confident in myself and ready to hear new shouts from this year. This woman gave me not just help - she gave me faith in herself. And I know for sure: no matter how many difficulties lie ahead, I can overcome them, because now I’m not on my own. I’ll leave her number +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram
