Clairvoyance via the internet represents a colossal market. It could not be easier to lure vulnerable people into the nets of pseudo-psychics through the most sophisticated media. The tool that is the web is intended to be so fast, discreet and informal that no one can verify what is going on behind these hundreds of thousands of threads woven by unscrupulous people whose sole interest is to trap beings in search of support. Thirty euros, or at best fifteen euros for a question via the internet is what we can offer you. We will give you a vague and…

When we type on the internet the word clairvoyance by telephone and also “free clairvoyance” we find: “Approximately 212,000 results (0.25 seconds)” This proliferation of people likely to help others without payment can give us the image of a world where money is not the main thing and helping your neighbor is an international maxim. As Americans often mention “there is no free lunch”, in the sense that nothing is free and although we can consider audiotel customers as consenting and informed adults, it turns out that this legal system chains them to…

Just as a trap requires bait to be operational, the clairvoyance scammer would be nothing without loyal stooges moving willingly in their shadow. These “human baits” are most often not even aware that they are there.  These people are even convinced that they are acting in their own name when they immoderately praise a particular clairvoyant, or fiercely defend a questionable position. The word “free will” also comes up quite strangely in their comments, as if they had to tirelessly justify their behavior. I will understand the reader’s objection that…

Today, thanks to ultra-sophisticated communication tools accessible to all, it is becoming easy to circulate information via media that are just as visible to a large number of people as they escape any control as to their reliability, and we cannot deny the fact that clairvoyance by correspondence or online represents a real danger. Just ask those around you and ask who, one day, has not felt like a potential victim of a medium working remotely? Many people have had this sad experience. Indeed, their fragility, sometimes even disbelief, pushed them to…

Clairvoyance by telephone, canvassing and ‘‘imposed consultations’’   The victims of this organized mismanagement number in the hundreds or even thousands. The majority of these are individuals in a situation of moral distress, fragile consumers who are too easy to defraud since the profession of divinatory arts evolves without the slightest legal framework and in an anarchic manner. These consumers who live more and more in doubt and uncertainty, who can sometimes be too gullible or too trusting, in any case poorly informed and often manipulated, see…

Following the publication of the article by Bertrand CAILAC, entitled: Wengo: ‘‘Expert in Scam?’’ The counsel of this company has just sent us, on behalf of its client, a formal notice for the purpose of removing, under penalty of legal proceedings, the article in question or making access to it impossible, which, according to it, is of an insulting and defamatory nature. The content of the said article is consistent with the truth and INAD is not in the habit of acting maliciously towards anyone and even less of publishing false information. We recall…

By pointing out that the real marabouts are in Africa, Mr. SISSAOUI, according to an anonymous Internet user, is committing racial discrimination…. This is a real trial of intent. It’s scandalous. So what is a “marabout”, in the full sense of the term, a marabout is a Muslim religious who, through rigorous ascetic practices, achieves holiness. A responsible, trustworthy marabout, respecting both his client and ‘‘his profession’’ must in no case take advantage of the lack of knowledge and ignorance of his consultants who are quite fragile and…

I come to bring you my testimony, from the other side of clairvoyance. I am one of the professionals in the divinatory arts. The goal is to wake up my former “colleagues” but also to support the warnings of INAD and certain professionals who lead the debates. After practicing for several years in my personal practice in the city, I was struck by medical problems which forced me to close. But the charges and the insurance of the liberal professions would be well below what we can expect given what it costs. I had heard about the practices over the phone…

We recommend that all consumers avoid calling the following telephone number: 0899 650 241 code 10101, announcement published on the site “Au fémina.com” for which responsibility remains engaged. Indeed, it is a real scam whose tout is none other than a woman named Gordana who claims to be the president of INAD. The ad was deleted because the deception was immediately denounced by vigilant users of the said site. We thank them on behalf of consumers and on behalf of INAD members. It is these practices, these deceptive, detestable advertisements and the…

To the anonymous Internet user who claims that INAD is useless…your remark is very far from reality. We would like to remind you that for 23 years we have not stopped intervening, in vain, with the public authorities to somewhat regulate the practice of the divinatory arts. But the absence of control and surveillance is not an obstacle for the INAD which regularly intervenes on behalf of consumers who are victims of the fraudulent actions and questionable practices of certain unscrupulous firms and practitioners. Is it necessary to publish everything?…

We remind you that clairvoyance practiced by certain audiotel services is a real fool’s market. It is a flourishing business which brings in big profits for specialized companies, by employing dubious practitioners with uncertain skills, when they are not professional usurpers-manipulators recycled into an activity left to its own devices, and this playing on the ignorance, lack of knowledge and distress of a large number of their peers. Consumers are regularly relieved of their savings and even threatened with prosecution to prevent them from rebuffing…

Faced with the increase in abuses and scams by certain practitioners and audiotel firms, the INAD is considering taking legal action in the context of a complaint filed with the Public Prosecutor for the purpose of requesting a ban - on any professional and any clairvoyance firm by telephone and audiotel - from obtaining payment for regular and repetitive clairvoyance consultations by credit card from the same person, as long as the said professional or firm will have obtained a payment of at least €1,000 per quarter. This prohibition applies to any…

INAD Consumers (published January 2011, new format) We are pleased to inform you that the magazine “INAD Consommateurs” will once again be available at your usual newsagents from the first half of January 2011. As you know, INAD Consommateurs is a magazine for information, prevention and consumer protection of the divinatory arts, but also a reference for any loyal, honest and rigorous professional. INAD Consumers, a new formula, will cover all topics related to current events in the spiritual field, from beliefs to paranormal phenomena, by introducing…

As several complaints have been filed against certain practitioners by victimized and completely ruined consumers, certain professionals receive derogatory calls from individuals posing as members of the INAD, under cover of anonymity. We would like to point out that INAD never intervenes anonymously with practitioners or firms implicated by consumers. Therefore, no consultant can rely on the guarantee or support of INAD, in their personal approaches to clairvoyance professionals to put pressure on them and ask them for any financial restitution. In the…

Little box of astropsychology Astropsychology aims to be able to draw a portrait of a person using the birth chart. But we know that the observer interferes with the object studied. Do you really need many years of study in astrology to become a good astropsychologist capable of extracting all the substance from the chart? It is likely that the astrologer learns mainly on the job and that this is really how he manages to satisfy his client. Just like you don’t learn cooking by going to a restaurant, it appears that you don’t learn astrology by consuming…

We knew Tara, Isabella and other clairvoyants who are in fact simple robots programmed to send bogus revelations and almost daily reminders. Lady, it is that at 30 or 70 euros the special clairvoyance carried out for you alone and a few thousand other people, you must not let the gogo, the desperate, the evil person slip away!… Here comes Gabriella, a psychic (sorry, a computer) who practices electronic harassment. If you have the misfortune, I mean misfortune, to leave your contact details on Gabriella’s site, your mailbox will be flooded with letters…

Predict, clairvoyant*! It is a drama which has been reviewed and which has taken the comic combination by moving towards the outcome of this file of charlatanism, fraud, clairvoyance and other djinn. Naïma F., in her thirties, daughter-mother of a baby born to an unknown father, appears in Koléa with heavy charges. Obviously she did not force the door of the mother of the family, captivated by the word clairvoyant! We opened the door, offered him milk, a cell phone, a gold necklace, milk powder without anyone forcing the absent victim to the stand.…

Astrologers and clairvoyants, two socially different worlds We have long noted that a group is not defined so much by the nature of its displayed “object” as by that of its members or at least the vast majority of them. Sometimes, in fact, certain people get lost within a group that does not correspond to them socially. Sometimes, groups with similarities in their purpose differ significantly in their sociological base. Note that certain divergences within the same group are secondary with regard to what otherwise binds its members, at a more…

He was to be beheaded this Friday, April 2. Ali Sibat saw his execution postponed. But for how long? You are probably wondering what horrible crime Ali Sibat must have committed to deserve such punishment. This 49-year-old Lebanese father of 5 children did not kill or rape anyone. He just “allowed himself” to give life advice and deliver predictions on Shéhérazade, a Lebanese TV show. What is totally commonplace in the world is considered a crime by Saudi fundamentalists. They took advantage of this good Muslim’s pilgrimage to Mecca to arrest him and…

RELIGION “Search for the secret of faith”, Kabbalah allows us to discover the hidden meaning of sacred texts. Jewish mysticism mixed with Greek currents, creating a new orientation since the end of antiquity and throughout the Middle Ages. It induces communion with divinity. The ritual dictated by the Torah acquires a certain magical power. Only religious people had the power to pronounce these divine words. The magical and ritual capacities of certain words reappear in theurgic invocations. The symbolism of the Cosmos integrated into the sanctuary is…

Charlatans have fun, but at the vampire ball, only the desperate lose. Guessing the future: undoubtedly the second oldest profession in the world. Since homo became sapiens, he wants to know everything about his future. Ten thousand years ago, we read the entrails of a fish to know by which big beast we were going to be eaten. Today, we’re having our cards drawn to find out if a little bit of sunshine will warm our future. In a society where, apart from the time of a major charity event, we don’t care about anyone except ourselves, small problems and…

As at the end and beginning of every year, more and more client-consultants are consulting a professional in the divinatory arts: Medium, Clairvoyant, Astrologer… Beware of scams! In order to raise awareness among consumers who are increasingly being defrauded and manipulated by unscrupulous practitioners and by certain audiotel firms specializing in telephone clairvoyance and illusory occult work, the INAD proposes, in the interest of the profession, to open a month on clairvoyance fraud. This initiative, which will not please many notorious…

COMPANY Telephone clairvoyance offers are flourishing on free ad sites and throughout the French written press. In addition to the exorbitant cost and the risk of credit card fraud, there is a new danger: Racketeering. We all knew the neighborhood clairvoyant, often consulting at his home, comfortably seated behind his crystal ball or his tarot deck. A neighbor, a friend, even a confidant, to whom we went with complete confidence once or twice a year to take stock of our lives or that of our children. We went there without fear because word of mouth…

As agreed, we are publishing this second and final article on homosexuality, the opinion of which will perhaps remove the misunderstanding or misinterpretation of the first which, let us remember, is an opinion, that of a doctor, Dr Raymond Johnson. A surprising meeting with people we don’t know well. Beware of preconceived ideas… A little over 20 years ago, the homosexual community found itself exposed with the discovery of AIDS. It has also always been systematically associated with this terrible scourge since then, not necessarily rightly as we will…

How can a boy live his virility, after having lived his entire life between two women who claim to love each other with tender love? Life cannot be improvised. From the infinitely large to the infinitely small, man only discovers each time, an immutable and unavoidable order to which he must submit in order to master it and, if necessary, put it at his service. This is the case with nuclear energy, electricity and the complex mysteries of the functioning of our anatomy, our physiology and our psychology which always amaze with their complexity. Any…

Science is trying to test the reality of clairvoyance, but apparently without success. It is likely that the cold atmosphere of the laboratories and the underlying skepticism of the “testers” are not ideal conditions! However honest he may be, the clairvoyant, the true one, can fail when he undergoes a test seeking to prove his faculties. As divination is not subject to will, it is only the “gift” (immaterial faculty) which differentiates true from false. How to separate the wheat from the chaff? It seems that for the understanding and practice of the…

I had difficulty finding quality information to write this article. In fact, I discovered a vague universe, difficult to define with precision… I wanted to know objectively what clairvoyance was but instead I only found advertisements encouraging me to have a free consultation. Okay! I ended up finding out what clairvoyance was, by searching left and right, but I didn’t like the coating at all. By typing the word “clairvoyance” into the little Google search box, we see a host of sites appear, each more commercial than the last. We then wonder, and…

Audiotel and fraudulent maneuvers I am writing to you to let you know about a mishap I had. with the Cosmospace clairvoyance firm. 2 days ago. I received the following message on my cell phone on August 19, the day of my birthday: “ESME: Happy birthday M…! I am thinking of you very much on this very important. If necessary call me on 01 77…. – €15 10 mins” In fact I know a little about this person called Olga, rightly or wrongly I trusted her. I consulted her last week I think on Wednesday October 28 or the next day, for a question, it lasted 10…

HUMOR Exclusive interview with Grand Mage Kivatnikeh Faced with the controversy raised by the existence of audiotels, we decided to interview the most honest of the clairvoyants-mediums-astrologers-tripper-upholsterer, the great mage Kivatnikeh. After twelve hours of Michelin, we found him in his modest 567m² villa on the shores of the Mediterranean. The great mage Kivatnikeh received us at the edge of his seawater pool. Buffy Brinogene: Great mage, you seem tired. Overworked because of your famous devotion to others? Mage Kivatnikeh: That’s exactly it.…

The proliferation of “bogus” clairvoyance firms does not bode well for the future of the profession of divinatory arts, especially since the majority of these firms are run by unscrupulous individuals, trading in human distress which can bring big profits. The increase in clairvoyance scams within certain audiotel firms is becoming extremely worrying. Especially since the practice of divinatory arts is still not subject to regulation. Thus, anyone can claim to be a clairvoyant, medium or marabout. And even anyone can do anything with their…
