Actually, its the least surprising thing I've read all week.
Police in the mountain community of Crestline have arrested a psychic and accused her of embezzling money from her clients...
The Crestline resident met with Cindy twice. “She told me that I had a spirit associated with me that was not an evil spirit, but a spirit that was unhappy.”
To rid her of the unhappy spirit, the woman was told she would have to pay $9,000 – that would be returned in nine days.
She gave her a third – the $3,000 – and a month later said she wasn’t able to reach Cindy and wasn’t getting her calls returned. “She said she’d been ill and wondered if we could meet in a couple of days. And I said that was fine. Then a couple of days later, she wasn’t returning phone calls or text messages.”
The psychic was hauled off to face embezzlement charges.
Unfortunately, too many people fall for this sort of nonsense.
