It is easy to get scammed. If you do, I am certain you not alone. I have my own web-site which is listed under my profile. Some things that I personally do: even though I get a ton of "inquiring calls" I never talk anyone into reading. If they are skeptical or not ready, chances are they will not have a positive experience. Also, I always ask if this is their first reading. Then I will tell them what to expect so that there are no miscommunications about what my limits are. My pleasure is in when clients RETURN. That is really my goal. Then I know I did my best and they had a positive experience. I have also turned down clients who had not so realistic expectations. Like I mentioned I would rather retain than just get a huge number of people. Hope that helps Blessings~
