The winner of the TV show "Battle of Psychics" Maxim Levin explained to Russians how to easily recognize a fraudulent magician.
In Russia, the services of astrologers, psychics, fortune tellers and other representatives of the esoteric sphere are very popular.
Against this backdrop, many scammers have emerged who profit from people seeking hope.
In a conversation with NSN, Levin said that he exposes typical swindlers.
First of all, the attackers seek to intimidate people.
Fraudsters do everything they can to convince people that they are in “big trouble” if they don’t use their services.
At the same time, scammers try to persuade a person to transfer N amount or save money by taking part in a promotion.
If an “esotericist” starts to put pressure on you and calls for you to fix everything immediately, then this is an obvious ploy by a swindler.
The goal is to make a person think less and act faster when succumbing to impulsiveness, fear, or any other feeling.
For reference
Esotericism is a collection of knowledge and information that is inaccessible to the uninitiated, to people who are not versed in mystical teachings.
