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.

My name is Evgeniy, and I never thought I'd be writing a letter like this. Just a few days ago, our life seemed normal. My beloved wife, Lara, our little daughter, Sophie, and I were cozying up in our apartment one evening, reading a bedtime story and making plans for the weekend. Everything changed in an instant. I was awakened by the sharp, acrid smell of burning. I peered out of the bedroom and went cold: the entire hallway was filled with black, choking smoke, billowing from the apartment next door. My heart started pounding. "Lara, there's a fire! Run!" I screamed. We grabbed our frightened, crying Sophie in our arms and practically ran out of the apartment in our pajamas. We didn't have a second to grab documents, phones, Sophie's favorite teddy bear, or wedding photos. We ran, saving only what was most precious—our lives. We stood in the cold street, and I hugged my shivering girls, watching the fire consume our living room. That was the moment we realized: everything was gone. Absolutely everything. Sophie's toys, my laptop with my work, Lara's books, all our clothes—our entire life, piece by piece, turned to ashes. Now we have nothing. We live in temporary housing, wearing other people's clothes. Our little Sophie still can't sleep at night; she has nightmares. Lara and I are trying to be strong, but it's really hard for us. That's why I, Evgeniy, am turning to you. We desperately need your help just to survive and, little by little, start over. Any support from you is more than just money; it's a breath of fresh air and hope for my family that we can overcome this nightmare. Please, don't stand by. Your help is the only support we have right now. I will indicate an electronic wallet for transferring funds Usdt-TRC20: TMrQqrbsahWzGg93knk42cVcVSKTL7kNcu With endless gratitude, Evgeny, Larisa and Sophie.
