PSYCHIC SCAM ACCOUNTS - Blue June

2/21 UPDATE: About a week ago IG started rolling out a feature to report these scam account where you can finally tag the person they are pretending to be. If you have this feature available now please use it to take these account down. It generally takes them 3 days to review so the earlier you report the better.

2 Factors you need to look at to identify a scam account. Number one is the easiest tell:
1) The reading is THEIR idea.
We do not solicit clients for readings because it's unethical to present a person with the information when they are not seeking it and are not ready for the insights.
2) They have very few posts (20-50) and they were all made at the same time and very recently.
They copy everything of the real practitioner so you'll believe it's the real person, then they DM you pretending to be the reader they are impersonating and ask you for money through improper channels such as CashApp, Venmo, Zelle, etc instead of a real booking link with appointment time options, confirmation emails and receipts. This also breaks rule 1, the reading is their idea.
