Psychic Readings: 7 Warning Flags that a Con Artist is at Play

Tana Hoy
Psychic readings are the most well-known psychic services these days. At present, it's so easy to have psychic readings done -- there are even psychics who can give their services while you are enjoying the comforts of your home. Yes, because of the increasing demand for psychic readings, you can easily get them even through the telephone.

Though it is great news that it's quick to find a psychic for your needs, we cannot deny the truth that not all who claim to be psychics are indeed genuine psychic readers. Undoubtedly you want your psychic readings to be real and worth your time and what you pay for.

7 Warning Signals that Psychic Readings are given by a Con Artist

Who wants to be given a reading by a fake? Certainly no one -- after all, we want psychic readings for direction and enlightenment in life, and not for the cause that we want to get confused even more. Here are 7 red alerting flags to look out for when getting your psychic readings done:

Red Flag #1: THE PSYCHIC GEAR, ACCESSORIES, PROPS, AND ALL THAT JAZZ. If you are receiving a face to face reading, and you'd see your reader to be sporting costumes like one of those psychics you'd see in movies and all, be cautioned. Fact is, 8 out of 10 authentic psychics do not dress up that "fancy" when they give psychic readings. Keep in mind, psychics are just like you and me -- human beings so they will look "normal" and they normally just casually dress. Additionally, they don't talk in any strange sounding accent (there are some con artists out there who talk in a odd sounding accent as if they keep chanting what they say).

Red Flag #2: THE "YES AND NO LAW." Psychic readings SHOULD IN NO WAY only answer "yes or no" inquiries. An authentic psychic can present you answers to any open ended questions you have. But naturally, do not expect that the psychic will let you know the winning lottery numbers!

Red Flag #3: JUST ANOTHER COLD READING. Cold readings are those readings wherein information is received by means of the induction method. Normally, fakers use induction to find out about the subject -- they study the physical aspects about a person and interpret it. Such as saying someone is happily married immediately after finding a wedding ring on his finger, or saying that someone has had a rough night when it's quite obvious from that person's looks that he did have one.

Red Flag #4: THE GUESSING GAMES. This is one evident indication of a fraud. If your reader goes "do you know a Jimmy? a Mary? a Paul?..." or "you are 24, 25, 26...years old" and so on until she or he gets a confirmation from you, that certainly is a sign of the guessing game at play.

Red Flag #5: THE BRAGGING PSYCHIC. Legitimate psychics trust and believe in their psychic powers, above anything else. Therefore, they do not go bluntly showing off about what they have achieved and what they are capable to do. They won't also look so desperate to gain your trust by hoping to prove their abilities by showing it with a deck of cards, or bending spoons, among many other stunts.

Red Flag #6: THE USELESS READER. Psychic readings are meant to be the best form of advice in life. If what your reader is stating does not make any sense at all, then you might possibly be discussing with a fake. Genuine readers will even give you suggestions on how to face the challenge ahead. Don't forget, psychic readings should enlighten, not make everything more confusing.

Red Flag #7: PSYCHIC READINGS PRICES. This is the most obvious sign of a con artist. Quality psychic readings can honestly cost you between $250 to even $500 for a session (usually a minimum of 30 minutes per session). Yes, they can cost more -- this is because what you're dealing with is the real thing, and you get a complete and specific reading -- health, love, career, etc. Those services for psychic readings you see at carnivals or booths at a fair can be questionable at times because not only are they done very quickly; they're pretty generic as well.

So how can you keep away from getting psychic readings from scammers? As they say prevention is better than cure -- the secret to find very good psychic readings is of course, to first of all find a reputable psychic.
