Once again I get a call, today, about how a new client was told they had a curse on them by a local psychic shop. Untold amounts of money are being asked for to remove negative energy, a curse or anything a vulnerable person might believe is keeping them from finding happiness. These people are running a confidence scheme. You know those little houses you see all over the place. Well, they have a very notable place in history. It is a part of a gypsy culture.
“Authorities who study Gypsy con artists believe that nationwide the Gypsies run a multi-billion dollar crime industry.”
You can read all about it at http://www.gypsypsychiscams.com. This is a great place to start reading the history of the Gypsy Psychic Scams and it’s all here. Details about their tricks, skills and their monetary success. I know personally untold amount of individuals who have called me detailing their experiences. I have one client who was scammed out of $60,000 for quartz crystal. Others who were told to go shopping to places like Neiman Marcus to get a particular purse they were suppose to get back with all the money they gave to these people, which of course they never did.
Please read all about it and spread this information along. It seems that for every 100 people that find out what’s going on with these people, there are another 100 waiting around the corner to be had.
It’s exactly these kind of people who are causing real psychics who have integrity and ethical spiritual practices to receive undeserved negative feedback in the media. This is the origin of the misperception and these criminals have hurt many peoples’ lives both emotionally and materially and it’s resulted in challenging honest psychic practices today. However, scrutiny (both legally and within the community) is necessary to get rid of them.
I’ve decided to post every time I get a call with someone crying about the atrocious things they have been told and briefly believed. Just pass it along. Sooner or later knowledge will overwhelm schemes. Truth and integrity will endure.
Please share your experiences or your comments.
This is a very interesting article. Even online, when you call for a free so-called reading from the Gypsies. It seemed they’re reading from the same script and the websites looks the same with too many typos. Then comes the fee, it could range from $100 to $350. I’ll hang up!
Actually $100 to $350 is on the low end. They’ll take all your money, have you pay their bills, go shopping, etc. One of my clients ended up giving one of these gypsies her entire savings of $5000. When I read her situation, I could see that the guy she was “working” on really had no intention of being with her.
Sorry for being OFFTOPIC … what WP template do you use? Looks great.
