In The Bible: Book of Deuteronomy, there is a reference to fortune-telling in the Book of Isaiah (8:19). In this verse, people are encouraged to turn to God in order to find answers to their questions about the future, rather than to witches and mediums.

New Testament references are also available as well and in each case, fortune telling is seen as contrary to both Jewish and Christian teaching. For example, in Book of Acts 16:16-18 Paul encountered a girl who had fortune-telling powers. He then prayed in the name of Christ and commanded the "evil spirit(s)" who had invaded the girl to leave her. Once the spirit(s) did, her fortune telling ability vanished.

So I conclude fortune telling is real but is forbidden by God and against what God wants (the best for you).

Why do religious people condemn fortune tellers?

People, whether or not they are religious, may condemn fortune tellers if they believe that fortune tellers are taking advantage of gullible people.Religious people have two further concerns. If people can really tell fortunes without any help from the clergy, then the church loses control of our spirituality. Furthermore, if fortune tellers can not really tell fortunes they might still turn people away from the church.These are good reasons for the faithful to be warned to avoid fortune tellers, and to condemn fortune tellers.
