How Not to Get Scammed (Reading a readers profile)
HI,this is sort of a second installment to an article I wrote some months back. In that article I told of some basic ways to NOT get cheated by a reader. I thought I would take it a little farther here by looking at some profiles,and some forum replies,and showing how these areas can help you avoid being ripped off. Profiles
1. Look at the picture…does it look like a real persons picture or does it look like someone from Star magazine? Do they claim 30 years of experience and only look about 20? 2.While some psychics are lovely or handsome,we are all just regular folks. Does the reader you are thinking of using look too much like a model or actress? Does the picture look fake and posed? Is there even a picture of a human being ( I saw one profile a while with a dogs picture,and while I like dogs a lot,I doubt they give psychic readings…). Many scammers are known to put pictures of beautiful women in their profile and not even be female…this tends to be true especially among middle eastern men for some reason. If there is no real picture of a person at all,then I suggest avoiding them all together. 3. Look at the grammar in the profile. If it is poor and you cant understand it,then don’t expect to understand them in a reading either. Do they misspell simple words? Is the rhythm of their typed words just not right? Many people put pictures up of caucasians in order to fool someone into thinking they are english speaking…again check out that picture. 4. Too much education…or claims thereof. I saw a profile earlier today where the reader would have had to have been in college for 25 years to have all the degrees and so forth they claimed to have. Sorry but if you spent all that time in college,you would know how to spell,you would’nt be working as a psychic reader,and would be using all that education somewhere else. Also look at where that education was from…does it even sound like a real degree? Last I knew they don’t give degrees for psychic ability… 5. Do they have some words in caps and some not? That usually shows they didn’t write the profile and probably copied it from somewhere else. Just a copy and paste profile,useless to you. Sometimes you can find that out yourself by copying some of it and pasting it to Google. You will be surprized what comes up sometimes. 6. Claims of 100%, 99.9% or any other such nonsense in regards to their accuracy. Even the best readers are more about 85% accurate…after all we arent Gods. If a reader claims 100% accuracy you need to run away from them at once because they are not going to tell you anything of value. 7. Same thing with claims about spellwork..80-85% success rate would be awesome,but NO ONE is 100% accurate in casting. And it is NEVER instantly…people that say they can reunite someone in 24 hours and so forth are just pulling you in with crazy false promises. If it took a situation a while to go bad,then doesnt it make sense it would take a while for it to get good again? 8. If a reader asks that you send them a check or cash or something by Western UNion,RUN away from them. These methods of payment are just ways to get around paying Bitwine and to screw you over. 9. NEVER contact a reader off the bitwine site. You are uunprotected if you do and the reader is breaking their agreement by asking you. Report people like this at once to Bitwine using the contact button down at the bottom of the screen. 10. READ the psychics bad feedback! Even if there isnt a lot of it. It will give you a better feel of the reader and how they wil treat you. A good reader would never say something smart alecky back to a clients negative feedback. Nor would they blame the client for the readers inability to connect. That’s about it for now. Take these steps and the ones I Listed previously and you should be able to avoid getting scammed and ripped off. AT least you have narrowed the windows of opportunity for the crooks and given yourself an edge. Blessings! Bluedragon |
