Are You Being Scammed?
This was written by me and originally published in the TCBA’s monthly newsletter. It is a very important topic because it happens to so many, so I want to start with it.
ARE YOU BEING SCAMMED?
This is a very aggravating subject for me. It is what kept me from doing what I do publicly for as long as it did. It is a question that so many ask, and so many in this field choose to do. Scam others.
Who tends to get scammed?
Though it can happen to any of us it is usually the very depressed, down and out people. Those that really need legit help and in a lot of cases needs professional counselors and psychologists, not readers.
How does it happen?
You pay for a reading and do in fact receive one, what happens afterward is the problem. Your depression is picked up on during the reading in a lot of cases almost immediately it is sensed and known. The “negatives” in your life are discussed, the depressing situation is discussed, etc. The reading is finished then comes the pitch. It usually goes something like this: All the negative things going on with you is because of a curse someone put on you. It could of even been put on you many generations back to a great great great great great….grandparent. Until you get yourself “cleansed” and the negative energy around cleared, you won’t have improvement. You continually keep taking one step forward and five steps backward in life. yada yada yada on and on it goes.
When you are upset to begin with, this can sound really convincing. Then they have you nodding your head and agreeing with them, they got you now they are thinking. So follows the next pitch: So let’s get started on “clearing you” immediately for just a small fee. (It will usually be no less then $100.00, which is cheap) They tell you what they will do for that money and make an appointment with you to come back. When you give the money and come back, guess what? You are told that they found out the cause but need to do more work. To continue more $ is needed. This does not yet even cover the “cleansing” work still needed. That is for yet another visit. Once you have returned believing them is easier and is also weighing down their wallets with your hard earned money.
What is really needed?
If you find yourself even a little bit starting to believe them please run like hell and go get therapy, a counselor, a psychiatrist someone other then this “reader” Never let anyone play with your emotions and make you think any of these things are true.
What should happen at a reading?
A set agreed price is paid along with knowing exactly what you are getting. Ex: a half hour reading, an hour reading etc. No additional charges, no spell work or cleansings and never should you become frightened before during or after a reading.
Why am I writing about this?
Because this happens way to often to people. Also because the site that I read on has posts from people stating they gave $1,000s to people that told them these things. Recently there was a post from someone saying they are suicidal and a whole thing about what is going on with them. What are a lot of the responses to that? Hire me and let’s do a reading. What is my response to that? What is the response from anyone that is a legitimate reader ? The suicide hotline number given along with other suggestions of calling 911 for immediate help. Also other suggestions for them to find a counselor, psychiatrist anyone near them that deals with this and go. Even a local priest, pastor or rabbi would have numbers for professionals in the persons immediate area.
NEVER EVER should money for a reading be offered or taken for situations as severe as this.
Someone else posted that they gave $9,000.00 to someone who said they had to start spell removal work. When they went back they gave them another $9,000.00 for a “special cloth” that they said they blessed and was needed in a ritual.
This kind of stuff makes me ill and is another reminder why I do what I do. If I can save just one person from bankruptcy and lots of pain that alone means more to me then any amount of money I could ever make doing readings.
If you or someone you know feels something is not right with a “reader” please do not continue going back. If you have a question about any experience you have had feel free and contact me. I will happily discuss it with you.
Know that there are things that can be done. Going to the local authorities is what does not even occur to people to do. You can and you should.
Too many people get conned into continuously needing to go back to their “psychic” . If you find yourself continuously returning, that should also be questioned.
Blessings,
