Psychic/Gypsy/Spellcaster Scams
I hope everyone will please read this so you will
understand that many psychics and spell-casters are con artists.
They don't care about you or your problems. Everything they tell you
is a lie. Even when they seem to be "reading" you correctly, they are
actually just reading from a script that was written so that it could
apply to most anyone, and most especially to the kind of people who
would pay for a psychic (which, if you weren't aware, is a specific type
of person). I have an example of a
psychic reading script
right here, so you can see for yourself.
A psychic wrote to me
because she wanted to exchange links with my website.
Hi Starwitch :) My name is
Loretta.
It's nice to meet you lol. How are you? I hope you're good =) Your website
is really lovely. You must be SO proud. I wanted to request a link
placement on your website for my website. My website details are below. If
you would like me to place a link for your website on my website first
just let me know with your website details and I will do that ASAP. Reply
soon. Thank you.
Hi Loretta,
Thanks for the link exchange request. I normally do not exchange with
spell casting sites since they are almost always scams. I see that you're
offering free readings through email. May I have one? I've paid (way too
much) for psychic readings a few times in my life and they were never
accurate. I guess I'm wondering if yours are accurate. If is it, I would
be glad to exchange links with you and even recommend you to others
through my site, but I have never had a reading that was more than just
guessing and cold reading so I would be highly impressed if you were the
real deal. What would really impress me is if you could actually tell me
something that's NOT on my website.
Bright Blessings,
Starwitch
yes I understand what
you're
saying...truly there are bad seeds in every profession. i will work on
your reading tonight and will have it with you some time tomorrow.
Less than six hours later, she sent me a "psychic
reading" that was SO long that it would have taken an extreme amount
of time and effort for her to actually write something that in-depth.
You can read her
psychic reading script here.
Luckily for her, she doesn't have to write the readings. They are all
written for her by a computer and all she has to do is copy and paste
them into the email and click "send." She didn't even bother to write
"Dear Starwitch" at the top of the email. She just sent it
straight off the computer.
Of course, I'm not naive. I recognized it for what it
was (bullshit). And so I wrote her this lovely letter in return...
Dear Psychic Loretta,
Wow! That is a very long and in-depth reading! It must have taken you
days to write all that! It's truly amazing how it all described me just
perfectly! I'm so impressed! I was so excited at your accuracy that
I read the reading to my mom. You'll never guess what happened (okay, I guess you probably
will guess it since you're a
psychic...) The reading described my mom perfectly too! Then I
read it to my husband, who also thought you had an amazing knack at
describing him. He thought I had ordered the reading just for him! You are
just too good at this. It's like you
predicted ahead of time that I'd
want to share it with my mom and my husband, so you
intuitively did a
reading that describes all of us!
Thanks for the script. Now I can start offering my very own psychic
readings!
Now that I'm a psychic, I am going to use my psychic powers to do a
reading for YOU!! Please let me know how accurate I am.
Dear Loretta Jany Wilson,
My Psychic Analysis....
I feel that you're a very unhappy person who preys on other people's
vulnerabilities and insecurities. I also feel that you've been the
victim of abuse. The abuse has hardened your heart. You don't allow
yourself to empathize with the pain of other people because you're
afraid that your own pain will start to bubble up to the surface and
will overwhelm you and ultimately destroy you.
Occasionally, you feel a twinge of guilt for taking advantage of people
and stealing their money and giving them nothing but more pain in
return. But then you focus your thoughts back on yourself and decide that
you really wouldn't do this if you didn't truly "need" the money to
support yourself and your family, so you push your feelings of guilt aside
and continue offering "psychic readings" and "spell casting services".
You tell yourself that if you don't take the money from these poor
suckers, that someone else will, so you might as well do it yourself.
My Prediction....
I predict that you will get a call from a woman who wants to get her lost
love back. You will tell her that you can cast a powerful spell for her,
but it will cost her [insert outrageous amount of money here]. Since she's sad, lonely, desperate, and very, very needy, she agrees to your scam.
You take her money and you tell her that you'll give her an update every
day while the spell is in progress. And then, of course, you do absolutely
nothing for her. You don't even bother to say a simple prayer for her.
After you give your victim some time to start feeling happy and relieved
and to start believing that you're going to get her lover back for her
(less than a day), you call her again and tell her that you had to use
some very expensive candles for this powerful love spell you cast on her
behalf, so she will need to pay you an extra $2000. Of course, your
victim protests, insisting that she doesn't have the money. But you take a
chance and tell her that your spirit guide is telling you that she does
have the money. Because this lady has the mental acuity of an eight year
old, she is astounded at your accuracy! She eventually gives in and sends
you the extra money. Again, you do absolutely NOTHING for this lady. You
don't even as much as send her positive energy (not that you would have
any to send anyway) and then you stop answering her calls and stop
responding to her emails. Scam complete!
An extra prediction just for you! ....
I predict that I am going to start my own "Psychic Scam" section on my
website and encourage people to give reviews of the psychics who have
scammed them. This way, I can protect my visitors from making the same
mistake that others have made.
One more prediction....
I predict that England is about to pass a law that prevents so-called
"psychics" and "spell casters" from taking advantage of people who don't
know any better.
Bright Blessings,
Starwitch
