Red Flags when encountering or considering a psychic reader. This is a partial list, but points out the most important things to consider:
- You are approached by a friendly stranger in a high-end department store who comments on your “energy”
- Someone starts to “read” you without your permission at a swap meet, grocery store, or in the cosmetic department at any store
- You are referred to someone and can’t find the person on the Internet
- The reader does not have an office space and suggests meeting in a coffee shop, or a visit to your home
- Business cards for readers left on your vehicle
- Those who advertise on telephone poles
- You can’t find their business/name listed through the business license search
- Licensed Readers typically charge fees equivalent to a spa treatment at one of the major Las Vegas Resorts – be wary of someone who charges too little for a reading
- The reader won’t allow you to record the session
Once in the reading at the office:
- The Psychic Arts License and fee is not posted conspicuously in the office space
- The reader doesn’t identify your issues quickly
- You feel uncomfortable (not engaged or interested)
- The reader asks a lot of questions
- The reader asks you personal information that does not apply to the reading, i.e. Social Security Number, Birthdate, Drivers License Number, and/or Home Address
- You are told you have a curse or bad energy (see common cons)
