Spotting a Fake Psychic Medium
Here are four signs that should alert you to the danger that you might be talking to a fraudulent psychic.
Psychics exist to help or guide people along the right path by showing them what possible future awaits them. They are popular because, as humans, we are inherently uncertain of the future and that explains our fear of it as well as our desire to take a “peek” at what it holds for us.
Unfortunately, this fear is also what holds us susceptible to being deceived by a fake psychic medium. They do exist, and they put legitimate psychics in a bad light. For these unscrupulous individuals, it’s all about business rather than genuinely helping people.
Here are four signs that should alert you to the danger that you might be talking to a fraudulent psychic.
Sign #1 - These Fake Psychics Will Try to Incite Fear
One sign that a psychic medium you’re consulting is a phony or a fake is that he or she will automatically incite fear with their readings. They will say that somebody has cursed you, or that something dark looms in your horizon, etc.
People easy fall for this kind of scam because they are afraid of not having a bright or successful future ahead of them. These scam artists, unlike real psychics, want to capitalize on that fear and will thus say these words to their clients accordingly.
Sign #2 - Their Readings or Predictions Are Vague or Generalized
Even though the future is uncertain, true psychics can come up with a reading that’s specific to you or your situation even though they don’t know you that much.
Fake and phony mediums, on the other hand, tend to say things like, “You are currently confused what to do with your situation.” That’s very generalized, because everyone goes to psychics in the first place because they are uncertain and want to consult as to what the future possibly holds for them.
Sign #3 - They Make Readings That Are Incomplete or Sound Baiting
Some fake psychics are so good at “reading” their clients that they intentionally give predictions that are, while not generalized, are incomplete.
This is just a simple tactic on their part to entice you to come back again and again to them for consultations. After all, these consultations come with a fee, and returning clients mean a source of continuous income for them.
Real psychics, by contrast, are willing to give their first readings for free, most of the times.
Sign #4 - They Will Offer to Pray For You or Set Intentions, In Exchange for Money
This usually happens after Sign #1. After playing to your fears and uncertainties, they will then offer you something that can supposedly help ease your mind. They will pray for you or, worse, offer to make some sort of spell to take that dark cloud away from your horizon.
Thing is, psychics know that they don’t have the power to change the future for anyone. They know that all they can do is to guide, and thus, will not make such offers especially in exchange for monetary reward.
Just because you’re having doubts and anxieties about your future doesn’t mean you should be victimized by such dishonest people. Take then four signs in mind and you should be able to spot when you’re talking to a scam artist or a phony posing as a psychic.
