The Internet has become a new hunting ground for fake psychics.
Recently, the number of fraud cases related to online fortune-telling and psychic services has been growing. Scammers actively use social networks to pretend to be famous tarot readers and psychics, copying their accounts and publishing stolen photos. They target the followers of these accounts by offering them fake services for money.
In some cases, victims of scammers have faced situations where, after paying for a so-called session, they are offered a "cleanse" or the purchase of additional goods such as candles to supposedly get rid of negative energy. Scammers create an atmosphere of urgency and demand money through aggressive methods and then disappear, deactivating accounts and leaving victims without any services.
One of the victims told how after receiving the drawing of the "fateful partner" he was disappointed, since the depicted person turned out to be much older than expected. After the predicted acquaintance did not take place, the victim demanded a refund, but faced resistance and attempts to convince her otherwise.
In addition, there are reports of more frightening cases. For example, one "psychic" allegedly stalked victims through a global network of satanic and occult rituals to force them to seek help or even extort money.
Also, users of such online services complain about identity theft, phishing, cyberstalking, and even hacking of their devices.
To avoid such situations, it is recommended to carefully check the reviews and reputation of psychics, clarify the details of the services provided and avoid transferring personal information online. It's important to trust your instincts and be careful when interacting with strangers online, especially if they're pressuring and manipulating emotions.
