A while back I saw a link on facebook, saying get your free astrology reading within 24 hours.
What was strange first of all, was the fact that this guy makes a video right, but he hides his name and practice as astrologer under a false name due to previous harassment incidents. Now why in the hell would someone harass a credible astrologer? Ask yourself that by asking yourself why anyone would troll a new age con? Is this guy, and the rest of his team, clowns or clones of previous cons?
You fill out your personal details on the website, as in Date of Birth, time of Birth and of course the email address, that they ultimately use to spam you with more than giving actual guidance.
This is the first email I received after giving my email address to the Con-site, and they kept spamming me three weeks on:
And then the following email immediately after arrived in my inbox, note the EMPHASIS ON BETTERING YOURSELF, as if you are so completely lost and fucked up, you are nothing without the services of these assholes:
Hello Again!
Thank you for the reply! My name is Alex and I work with Adrian Duncan as his assistant. We are so excited that you have made the choice to seek answers and cannot wait to show you all that Astrology has to offer. It truly excites us to be able to help people like you better themselves, and provide them with insight through the use of Astrology.
Then I waited like a giddy schoolgirl for 24 hours to receive the long awaited report, about how fucked I am, letting me know in clear words that I WOULD SERIOUSLY FUCK UP MY LIFE IF I DO NOT ORDER HIS ASTROLOGICAL GUIDE RIGHT NOW, and a series of emails ensued telling me how EVIL I AM for not making use of his most benevolent SERVICES, about HOW IT SHOCKS HIM DEEPLY that I cannot MAKE IMPORTANT CHOICES [ like giving up my bank details to a conartist] DURING A CRUCIAL PERIOD In my life. cry me a fucking river!!!!!
When you do get your reading, carefully read it over, and give yourself the opportunity to reflect on what is being said. You’ll be surprised at how much of one’s-self we truly fail to notice until we actually take a chance to think about it. From all of us at Astrology Answers, congratulations! We can’t wait to begin this new journey with you! May your day be filled with happiness.
Here is parts of the email I received upon receipt of the free reading:
-:: Important ::-Your Zodiac Reading has been prepared, and in doing so there has been some important information for you to uncover.
Unless you have time to actually read through this email and absorb what it is that I'm trying to tell you, please come back to it later.
Mark it as important, put it away, and carry on doing whatever it is you are busy doing.
Even though it's important, I do need your attention - and I would much rather you read it and absorb it later than softly skim it now.
------------------------------------------------------------
Now, only if you're REALLY with me, please read carefully:
------------------------------------------------------------
...the fact you came to request a personal Zodiac Reading from me is a clear indication that there is something “at play” in your charts which is driving you to seek guidance in preparation for a big change that is to take place in your life.
I'm prepared to help you through this change by providing the level of guidance you would come to expect from a friend with my skills.
It is crucial to live “in sync” with your natural astral energy flow.
It is quite possible that you are not... and that you’ve basically been swimming up-stream against the currents which govern your physical life here on earth.
You may have noticed this a while ago, but the obstacles and challenges you face are now becoming too much to ignore...
Which is why you were drawn to requesting a sample Zodiac Reading from me yesterday.
...consider this, you may be about to enter a BIG period of change in your life - whether you're prepared for it or not does not matter, but that's where I can help you.
I don't want to go in depth in this email since a detailed analysis of your chart has already been prepared on the page I have provided below...
So please, follow this unique link right now and read on:
Your Astrologer,Adrian
P.S. This “change” may well be something you have been ready for, for a very long time. Isn’t that true? And isn’t it about time the fog you have been drifting through lifted, to unveil the path you need to take? I think so. And I think you do as well.
I have put the phrases that should raise your suspicion in italics, bolded it and underlined it, look at the wording. Suddently he is your most trusted friend, suddenly he claims to be YOUR ASTROLOGER, YOUR GOD, YOUR SPIRITUAL MASTER who you can do nothing without. Typical new age guru bullshit right here.
Then I did a Little digging - the free readings are automatically generated, and everyone receives the same report and apparently ADRIAN WAS ONCE A FEMALE, due to the fact that a scam artist claiming to be a woman was playing the exact same con long before he did. Apparently Astrology answers are on a serious FBI watch too.
Apparently there is a code of Astrologer Ethics that these conartists regularly contravene for the thrill of exploiting DUMB AS FUCK PEOPLE. Abusing a position of Trust is no problem for these cons.
If you look at the code of Ethics, it is like four sentences long, like what the actual fuck? Is that all? I am sure doctors or lawyers only had to learn a four sentence code of ethics to really understand the importance of their work. NOT IN HELL, OF COURSE THEY DID NO SUCH THING!!!!!!!!!! So based on a four sentence code of ethics, any astrologer can be a scammer basically, because there is no substance to a FOUR SENTENCE CODE, for fucks sakes. There are just too many loopholes to abuse in THAT EMPTY CODE!!!
All they care about is you paying them, not about you actually being functional in the material world, or actually realizing your dreams or goals. Scammers and fraudsters just don't play like that. And once they have your banking details, serious shit can go down! DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR BANK DETAILS. BLOCK THEIR EMAIL ADDRESS FROM YOUR GMAIL, ASAP, MARK THEIR EMAILS AS SPAM!!! I don't believe mere unsubscribing will make them go away.
And these FAKE READINGS come at very HIGH PRICES, not just a TERRIBLE MINDFUCK, but also a CRIMINAL FUCK OUT OF YOUR SAVINGS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN USED FOR SOMETHING MORE BENEFICIAL, LIKE buying yourself underwear or milk for your baby.
These readings are just as Expensive as DOREEN VIRTUE'S claptrap books, that truly amount to nothing but a self-induced mindfuck and/or hypnotism without any true beneficial results. Three Hundred dollars for an ASTROLOGICAL GUIDE that will tell you what to do for the rest of your year, step by step, because you are apparently TOO DUMB to do shit by yourself or to make your own god damn choices. FOR FUCKS SAKES. These retards reached the wrong inbox!!!!!!!!!
And then trying for three weeks after delivering your 'free reading' to coerce you to make use of their services because YOU ARE APPARENTLY SUCH A UNIVERSAL FUCK UP without THEM ROBBING YOU BLIND. Like you need to hand over your money to them BECAUSE THEY NOW INSTATED THEMSELVES AS GODs over YOUR LIFE. NO FUCKING WAY!!!!!!!!!!
THERE WAS A LINK HERE - TO A SOME GUIDE TO REAL ASTROLOGERS - THIS WAS REMOVED AS THE AUTHOR THEREOF, DESPITE IT BEING LINKED TO HER BLOG COMPLAINED ABOUT COPYRIGHTS - NOTE THE COMMENT SECTION HEREOF. I personally have difficulty telling the real from the fakes, when materialism is the main concern in these types of communities. Even though I get a free astrology reading every day, which is sometimes on the dot, I am starting to question whether that is not self-induced brainwashing to push you through the day when you think it is a GOOD message for the day. Astrology has its perks, testing the mind and how it reacts, but when astrologers call each other out, it is something new to think about. In the end people would believe whatever, the only thing that remains intact and should really be listened to at the end of the day, is HEALTHY COMMON SENSE AND LOGIC.
If you watch the fraudster's youtube or intro video you would quickly think, awww this man is the shit, he does free readings because he wants to make the world a better place. NO THAT IS NOT THE CASE AT ALL, he tries to coerce you after "a fake free reading" to BUY MORE FAKE SHIT to PROVIDE YOU WITH A COLOSSAL NEW AGE MINDFUCK,
I am not going to post all the spam emails trying to convince me to buy into this bullshit, because I believe the image is pretty much clear. This is apparently their tactic, try for weeks after giving you your "fake reading" TO TRY AND COERCE YOU INTO GIVING UP YOUR BANK DETAILS TO THEM, AND GIVING THEM UNDESERVED PAYMENT FOR FRAUDULENT SERVES.
ON A LAST NOTE: DO YOU WHO BUY INTO NEW AGE BULLSHIT EVEN KNOW THE DEFINITION OF FRAUD?
GET EDUCATED BECAUSE THE NEW AGE ISN'T ALL LOVE AND BUTTERFLIES BUT A MULTI-DOLLAR SCAM INDUSTRY!!!
PS: THERE IS NO EASY PATH TO SUCCESS AND RICHES, AND EVERYONE HAS TO WALK THEIR PATH OF PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT ALONE, UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE A PUPPET TO AN ALREADY FAILED HUMAN BEING'S AGENDA ON HOW TO RUN YOUR LIFE.
