In reply to the discussion: Psychic (Sylvia Browne) Who Said Amanda Berry Was Dead Silent After Berry Is Found Alive [View all]Dorian Gray
(13,850 posts)the people most vulnerable to them are people who have lost people close to them. My mother in law was introduced to a psychic within a month of my sister in law passing away this past Fall. I was horrified at the crap she told me the psychic told her. It was all bullshit trying to separate her from her money, but it was all stuff she wanted to hear.
She implied that my sister in law had money hidden and she would help her find it for a fee. She told my mother in law all the things a mother wants to hear about her dead daughter, to try to get money from her. And my MIL didn't see it. This is how they work.
And they are trying to separate suckers from their money. That's exactly what they are doing. But people grieving aren't truly suckers. They're grieving and looking for answers and closure and peace. They are hoping to hear that their child/parent/spouse/friend/family member isn't in pain or hurting.
Their job is to be a scam artist and scam people out of their money.
