This is just more proof that many of these so called psychics basically use psychological tactics to prey on those in depressed and anxious states.


I feel that they use this particular time of year; the holidays to send out these bogus e-mails knowing that there will be some poor soul in need of real help.

Great articles Decibel, thanks for posting them.

nikkii:
Also, it wasn't all gloom and doom the way that email from Tany Hoy is and there wasn't any scary warnings in it either.  He can't be that good if he has stooped to these tactics to get callers.

Exactly! This screamed gloom and doom, what a perfect way to describe it. I feel a good and genuine psychic would never stoop to such low levels at someone's emotional expense.

Luckystar:
This guy makes me feel sick.  I found something else written on the internet about him too. On this forum>>

"He kept telling me that he is one of few psychics who can read me. Moreover, for things to happen, i should keep having readings every 3 months, like going to a dentist, he said. Because we have free will,so for things to happen i should keep having readings with him.idiot fellow. If free will is going to affect what he predicts then there is no point in his predictions. Because he can always blame for predictions not come true for free will,!!!then he is very free to make any freaking prediction."

Thanks for sharing the link LuckyStar. Incredible, I am so very glad I am not weak as I was years ago, sadly I would have been one to fall privy to an e-mail such as the one sent to me.

--- Quote ---That Wikihow page on how to become a psychic is one of the stupidest things I have ever read in my life.  Get a familiar- seriously?  Guess no one's truly a psychic til they have a snake or crow on their shoulders as they hover over their crystal ball.  Where did this person learn to become a psychic- Hogwart's?

Interesting links, Diva.  Thanks for sharing.  The articles by people  who 'winged it' on psychic call lines were very interesting- although so many of us have long since figured that out- but so many were once victims to such scamming and so many out there still are.  Makes me think of Dave Chappelle's comedy skit 'Miss Cleo's Educated Guess Network' which is hilarious.  If you've never seen it, look it up on YouTube ( if it's the tv edit, foul language will be bleeped out- but if not- just be warned there is mild language for anyone who's ears might burn )

Is this Dave's Educated Guess Line (based on stereotypes), because adding Miss Cleo to the search brings up something different. Is this it? http://www.comedycentral.com/video-clips/qleo98/chappelle-s-show-dave-s-educated-guess-line

Yeah it was pretty funny, the obvious stuff we would already know.

Your crystal ball comment was even funnier.
