Avoiding Fake Psychics and Psychic Scams
By Denise Alvarado of The Mystic Voodoo
If you are looking for a psychic on the internet today, you have approximately 3,580,000 to choose from. Obviously, psychic readings are a popular commodity, and whether you want a reading for fun, for curiosity’s sake, or for spiritual guidance, you want to get the real thing. The price of a reading can range anywhere from free for automated software readings or for brief sample readings from live psychics, to $150.00 or more. It’s no secret that there are a lot of fakes and scammers out there, and here are a few guidelines to help you decide whether or not you are getting what you paid for, or if you are getting ripped off. First, a real psychic will have a conversation with you. Many will give what are referred to as “cold readings” which is actually a tactic for getting information from you. This is not being psychic. A real psychic will not ask too many questions other than what it is you want to know about. Second, a real psychic will not immediately tell you that there is a generational curse on your family. While sometimes this may be true, more often than not it is a scare tactic used to squeeze more money from you. Third, a real psychic will show integrity by maintaining the same phone number and website. Scam artists will often change their numbers and websites or even their names in an effort to avoid providing the service they have been paid for. Fourth, a real psychic will actually be able to tell you things about yourself and your situation that are accurate and that could not be gleaned from information you have already provided. Fifth, ask for references. A real psychic will be able to provide testimonials to their abilities. In addition to these basic guidelines, there are over 750 so-called “gypsy fortune tellers” in the police database. Check to see if the one you want to work with is in the database. These psychics prey on those who are in real need by giving them cold readings, telling them they have a curse on them, and that only they can help them. Once the client is broke, the psychic or fortune teller will no longer “help” them, telling their unfortunate victim that their situation is beyond repair. The victim is left broke and feeling hopeless and in despair. Not all psychics are scams and not all gypsies are con artists. However, it is important to follow some of these basic guidelines so that you can make an informed decision about how you are spending your hard-earned money. |
