Being in this business for over 20 years has given me an opportunity to get to know a number of other psychics in the community, and also to understand the variety of services offered in the community.

I decided to put this information about psychic scams on my site for several reasons. First, more than once I have been contacted by people who have experienced outrageous deceptions, not only financially but emotionally, after their hopes were built-up for future events… events that would never occur. I have been the bearer of bad news for these people, who then felt foolish and betrayed.

Many people are not experienced enough in psychic understanding and awareness to know a real psychic when they meet one. Their education is based upon what they see on TV, or perhaps stories exchanged among friends. Psychics should be interviewed like you would interview any other profession selling a service. All of us have psychic ability to one degree or another, and you should not give up your common sense nor your own instincts about truth.

Please know that there are many wonderful sincere psychics out there, but unfortunately there is a group of so-called psychics who pray on the vulnerabilities and weaknesses of others for profit. Further, because this group of unethical "psychics" exist, and the sore thumb always sticks out in the media, all psychics get lumped into the same boat with these charlatans hurting our entire profession. All our credibility becomes compromised based upon the deceptions of this group. Then, the value that exists in psychic awareness becomes contaminated for those who truly seek this spiritual information. Myths and misinformation continue to be perpetuated, and the scam artists continue to gain the focus and attention in the media.

Below I have listed a number of the standard scam lines false psychics use. Should anyone try to sell you this bill of goods, hang up the phone as quickly as you possibly can, and never agree to pay a psychic on an on-going basis for some type of "removal" of dark energy. Some of the most famous lines are:

• You have a curse on you from a past life, or now, or someone is putting a curse on you.

• You are plagued with a dark energy from the past. I can help you remove that dark energy….
  for a fee.

• "So and So" is jealous of you. It is this jealously that is holding your good from you.

• For a fee "$$$" I can help you remove this curse, and you will feel a difference in your life,

                or

• The person you desire is your soul mate, but there is dark energy between you, probably from a past life, and for a fee I can remove all this dark energy, and reunite you with your soul mate.
