🔮 Exposing Fraudulent Mediums

Throughout history, not all mediums have been genuine. Some have used deception to manipulate belief, turning spiritual practices into performances for profit or fame.

🧭 Tactics of Deception

*Stagecraft and Props*

Fraudulent mediums have often used theatrical tools—dark rooms, hidden assistants, or rigged furniture—to produce “paranormal” effects that impress but mislead sitters.

*Cold and Hot Readings*

Cold reading relies on general statements and observation, while hot reading involves prior knowledge about a person. Both methods mimic authentic psychic insight deceptively.

*Emotional Manipulation*

Exploiting grief or longing, some fake mediums prey on the vulnerable by offering false comfort in exchange for money, eroding public trust in genuine spiritual practices.

🌟 Seeking Truth in a Noisy World

By educating ourselves and staying aware, we can better distinguish sincerity from showmanship—supporting ethical practitioners and avoiding harmful deception in the name of spirit.
