"Beware of Psychics"
The other day, I watched an episode on Dateline as Chris Hansen investigated the psychic business. I was aghast, infuriated, besmirched, and outraged all at the same time.
In the 3-part (online) series, employees of Dateline visited psychics - the ones with the bright neon signs in the window offering readings - and secretly recorded the sessions.
The two "psychics" who were interviewed said essentially the same thing; that the client was "surrounded by negativity," were "cursed" and that "someone is jealous of you."
The "psychics" went on to tell the Dateline clients that they could remove the curse and negativity and all wonderful things would then happen: the client would meet the man of her dreams....get a great job...move to Paris...become a super model...etc. All for a mere...$500!!!
