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 want to express my deep gratitude to Lilia for her help and compassion. At a time when my strength was waning and I had almost come to terms with the fact that my loved one was gone forever, it was Lilia who helped me believe that things could still change. With her support and guidance, I was able not only to bring my loved one back, but also to rethink my attitude toward myself and our relationship. Thanks to her, we are back together—and now we have a different, more conscious and mature relationship. Lilia, thank you for the sincerity, warmth, and strength you give to people. You don't just help "get people back," you restore their hearts. This is priceless. When life is hard and you don't know how to find a way out, you turn to people with supernatural powers for help! I FOUND SUCH A WITCH!!!! She's VERY POWERFUL AND KNOWS HER WORK!!! I honestly doubted it before calling, but then she started talking to me about my first husband, about my accident too. In general, she said powerful things. But most importantly, she WAS ABLE TO GET MY HUSBAND BACK AND DRIVE AWAY A RIVAL!!!!! EXPRESS MY GRATITUDE HERE and I recommend it to anyone who really needs help!!! Write her number (380638055486, Viber, WhatsApp). +19297133433
When my husband left, I was devastated. He said he didn't love me, that he had another woman. I turned to Lilya with almost no faith... but she instilled strength in me and gave me concrete steps. Not magic, but wisdom! After a month and a half, he started calling himself, and then came for a serious conversation. Now we're back together, and most importantly, we're learning to trust each other again. Thank you, Lilya! Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (regular call)
So many tears, so many sleepless nights... But Lilia never gave up. She's like our family's guardian angel, able to melt the ice in my husband's heart and bring him home. Her love is the light that penetrated the darkness and made us happy again. Her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433
I thought our marriage was ruined forever. My husband left, leaving a void and pain in our home. When I turned to clairvoyant Lilia, she immediately saw the root of our problems and helped fix everything. After her work, my husband returned of his own accord, as if he realized he was losing what was most precious to him. Now we have love and understanding again. Thank you, Lilia, for saving my family! Here are her contacts: +380638055486 (her WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433 (USA)
