Psychic Reading Scams

 Psychic Readings Scams:

We all feel emotionally vulnerable sometimes, and I was scammed myself at one time. True psychics can read everyone except themselves, and we are regular people with everyday good or bad lives too... And I fell for it. It's not your fault, don't feel stupid I am not hiding the fact that I had been scammed but rather educating others before they get ripped off! just like I did!

Before delving into different kinds of psychic reading scams, it is important to remember that there are legitimate and ethical mediums and psychics out there. These are individuals who have spent years practicing and developing their gifts in order to help other people. Today, I will not be talking about these people, but instead, of unethical psychic readers who exploit their clients and fraudulent individuals who possess no gifts but claim to do so. Let’s take a look at some of the most common psychic reading scams you would typically come across.

Who doesn’t like to hear good news? The most common type of fake “psychics” are the ones who get paid by the minute to keep their victims on the phone or in a session as long as possible. In reality these “psychics” have no special abilities whatsoever other than being masters of psychological manipulation. They are skilled at identifying a person’s vulnerabilities or desires and then manipulating them to stay in a session as long as possible. They do this by telling them exactly what they want to hear the most in long drawn out detail.

Not all psychic readers are genuine or true. There are some who are pretending to be a psychic in order to make something for a living. If you do not know how to spot a psychic reading scam free psychic reading, the reading that you received can either make or break your life. It is then best to know some techniques in spotting a fake psychic reader.

Down below here is the top 5 most common psychic reading scams.

1. Spells and Bad Luck Curses:

Spells and bad luck curses are the oldest psychic reading scams in the book, and have been done by “psychics” for centuries. This psychic reading scam usually starts with the psychic telling you that they feel a dark presence or curse surrounding you. They may even do a vague psychic reading and even fish out information, like people whom you think you may be at odds with. Then, they would usually proceed to telling you that this curse is the main reason why you have been having plenty of bad luck recently.

2. Cures for  Illnesses:

Energy work is great, and it is legitimate: we all love our share of reflexology, acupuncture and Reiki. These types of energy work are all legitimate, especially when they are done by  legitimate practitioners.

However, some fake psychics take advantage of people when they are at their most vulnerable, promising to heal them and make them 100% sickness-free by charging a hefty fee. Remember, it is unethical to guarantee a 100% cure and legitimate energy workers do not even do that. The second part of this psychic reading scam is that they charge very outrageous fees for the promise of healing. Energy workers put a price on each treatment for their time and expertise, but the rates are always reasonable.

3. Email Psychic Readings Scams:

Email scams work two ways.

The first happens when you pay for an online psychic reading, and you end up getting an email that’s contains vague content. Most of the time, you’ll end up getting basic information that works for everyone. An example of a vague reading would be something like:

You have a friend who secretly does not like you, but things will eventually become better soon. Today, it’s good to let go of your past because it is holding you back, and take time to embrace your future, because good things will surely come.

Have you noticed how general and vague the information is? Because it is so general, most of the contents can apply to just about anyone. This means that you’ve actually paid this psychic to just send you a copy-paste of an email that he or she has probably sent to hundreds of other clients before you.

The second type of email psychic reading scam is known as the scary email message, where a psychic or medium reaches out to you with a message or an email, telling you that they have a very important message that you should know, oftentimes from a spirit of a beloved departed. This short message will often spark your attention and will leave you wanting more, but then you have to pay them to get the whole message.

4. Good Fortune or True Love Spell

This is in connection to the first psychic reading scam, which is when a psychic tells you that you have been cursed by someone. This psychic reading scam, however, is the opposite of the first. This is when a fake psychic tells you that he can cast a spell to bring you good fortune or true love. He or she may claim to do things like helping you find your soul mate, making your ex love you back, getting you out of debt or helping you land a new job.

A lot of people fall into this psychic reading trap because con-artists are so good at letting people what they want to hear, and they seem to provide solutions to problems that are longstanding. To keep you at ease, they may also tell you that they are working with “white magic” which is safe and will hurt nobody.

Don’t believe this. While the spells will definitely not work on anyone (and will not hurt anyone, too), this psychic reading scam will definitely end up hurting one person: you. Not only will you be throwing your money away, it will also lead you to have your hopes up only to have it broken when the psychic tells you that they need to perform a stronger and more powerful spell.

5. Not An Accurate Psychic Reading:

The Psychic may tell you about yourself, your future, or your life but if it doesn't sound correct or does not make sense to you, then make use of your common sense while listening to the suggestions of the psychic reader.
