Be Aware
« on: June 02, 2020, 05:09:17 PM »
So I’m sure other people have experienced this too but this really didn’t sit well with me. A ‘psychic’ contacted me on my personalInstagram page and told me they have a strong connection with me I must dm them now! I looked at the page and the posts were thank you’s from clients and random astrology facts.  My first thought was how do they know I believe in stuff like this as no one other than people on this site and the psychics I speak with (obviously) know I get readings. My second was the fact I talk to so many psychics what if one found my personal page (my real name is not common so I wouldn’t be that difficult to find) and lastly is this is just a scammer trying to make money on insta?

I’m still not sure which I think is true but it scared me so I just wanted to vent and let everyone know we need to be aware who we give our names to. I know loads of psychics would NEVER abuse the client relationship and do this but there are some that might. If it’s just a scam then it’s equally as bad as the page didn’t look reputable and some people may just pay for a reading

Anyways sorry if this has already been mentioned and I’m just very naive 🙈 keep safe everyone :)

I didn't recognise the name or the pictures of the 'psychic' :/ but yes they might have been trying to get clients off the sites!

No I don't even look at psychic pages on insta, I like to keep the fact I believe in psychics thing very private 🙈

A friend of mine spent thousands on a psychic who contacted her via facebook with a "life changing message" . She did not know this psychic and thought it was a "sign"  that she was  found by her.  Ultimately ,there was no message, only repeated hook ins (information attainable via social media )  and promises of "THE" important message to come.

I have to admit, I did for a second think is this a sign? 😳 but that’s went out of my head quickly!

Yeah most probably a scammer :/ blocked now :) I might have to change my email address because I do use the same one
