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.

Hi everyone! I want to share my story because I still can't believe it happened. Almost two years ago, I was at rock bottom. My beloved, the one I'd planned my whole life with, just left. Without explanation, without a chance to fix anything. I was devastated. I tried everything I could, but nothing helped. My friends no longer knew how to support me, and I was simply fading away. And then, having lost all hope, I came across reviews about the magician Zakhar. I contacted him. Zakhar, without asking anything, told me such things about our relationship, about her, about me, that I was shocked. He knew something no one else could. A spark of hope appeared in me, and I asked for help. And you know what? It happened! Just a few days later, my girlfriend started contacting me. At first hesitantly, then more and more. She herself didn't understand what was happening, but she said that all this time she felt like something was pulling her back to me. We met, talked, and everything returned to normal, only stronger. And then, six months later, we got married! Now we've been together for more than a year and a half, and I've never been happier. Zakhar didn't just give me back the woman I loved; he gave me back my life, my faith. I'm immensely grateful to this man for his incredible strength and help. If you find yourself in a similar situation, if your heart is broken, don't lose hope and contact Zakhar. His number is +380954248510.
I don’t know what Lilya did, but I know one thing - she brought back to me the person I love more than anything in the world.
I came to Lilya just to talk—I needed someone to listen. But she heard much more than words. She saw my pain and told me that my husband was still there spiritually, that the connection between us was not broken. A week later, he showed up at my work. He simply came up, hugged me, and said, "I want to go home." I don't know what Lilya did, but I know one thing—she brought back to me the person I love most in the world. She can be reached on Viber and WhatsApp: +380638055486
I express my deep gratitude to the magician Alexander for his professionalism and effective assistance. His number is +380971792179.
I express my deep gratitude to the magician Alexander for his professionalism and effective assistance. His number is +380971792179. When I contacted him, I was living in Germany and couldn't come to an in-person meeting. I messaged him on WhatsApp. Alexander understood my situation – he consulted with me and performed the work remotely. This was no problem for him. He is a compassionate and kind person. A true clairvoyant and a powerful practitioner with a gift from a Higher Power. Even talking to him makes you feel better. The work he does is very effective. I literally felt it even from a distance. But most importantly, his abilities helped me solve a number of problems and bring my husband back. I recommend the magician Alexander to anyone seeking qualified and effective help.
