Really the only way to tell whether you're dealing with a legitimate soothsayer or not is to trust YOUR insticts.

But some signs to watch out for:

  1. If their (face-to-face) reading seems full of theatrics (moaning, convulsions, Tv psychic BS) they're probably not a legitimate psychic.
  2. If they charge more then $1 a minute for short readings. Or $30 an hour for longer sessions. Seriously if they're charging you $250 for a 30 minute reading, then you better actually see your great aunt Tillie materialized in the crystal ball or in the chair next to you.
  3. If they're PRESSURING you to buy more products or services from them. It's okay for a psychic to tell you that they see a dark spirit surrounding you and that perhaps a protection spell would be wise. But if they're telling you that you NEED to buy this thing & you need to buy this spell & you need to buy this potion, they're probably not being completely honest.
  4. If their prices keep going up with each visit. A loyal customer, should get a discount after a while. Or at least that's how I treat my clients.

One final note, just because you feel uncomfortable with a psychic doesn't make them a con artist, so please don't report every psychic to the FBI, Better Business Bureau, or etc. Not only does it waste taxpayers money investigating these psychics, but it also harms the psychic.

What is the difference between a pro and a con?

I believe Zig Ziglar once wrote, "... the difference between a pro and a con is INTENT. The techniques used are the same... but what you plan on doing, on achieving are different." Normally, the words pro and con are used for opposing positions, for and against. However a pro would be a professional, and a con would be a confidence artist (i.e., a person who commits fraud by deceiving others after getting their confidence). In that context the difference between a pro and a con is that the pro delivers the goods, and the con is fraudulent.

What are the Difference between con-con and con-ass?

Both Constitutional Assembly and Constitutional Convention are modes towards achieving charter change. Any mode would suffice as long as it would lead to Charter change. The difference between them is that the con-con delegates are elected while in con-ass, members of Congress propose the amendments. Cebu City Rep. Antonio Cuenco noted that the difference between Con-ass and Con-con was that the latter was easier to undertake considering that the Senate was in favor of this mode. A key difference in the Con-ass and Con-con proposals is the timing. Kampi (now called PArtidong LAkas at KAmpi or PALAKA) wants Con-ass formed before 2010 (which will precede the "No-El" 2010), while Con-con advocates led by Sen. Mar Roxas have proposed that the delegates to Con-con be voted during the 2010 elections.
