Boomer parent admitted they have been sending money to a "psychic" for over 4 years. They are living check to check and have no retirement savings.
My boomer parent admits they have been sending money to a psychic for years, they are usually getting caught up in some scam and they are very stubborn. I thought this was a "new" psychic, but apparently this person has been receiving money for several years. My parent has no savings or retirement and is close to 70.
They have been sending money to this psychic, who has not predicted a damn thing. They were told they would win the lottery, marry a rich man, be successful, etc if they kept sending money for prayers and rituals.
I don't even know where to begin at this point. This person has a roommate that hates them and apparently is also a boomer woman doing her own witchcraft. I can't even process this. They are both paying psychics and witches and shamans for protection amulets to protect them from the other person. For all I know, it's the same psychic scamming both of them.
My boomer parent believes they need medicine from this psychic, and without it they will die. They are paying hundreds, maybe thousands, of dollars for magic tea. The tea was supposed to cure their health issues, but it's not working. So my boomer parent is telling me that these things take time and I am not understanding the magic.
Has this happened to anyone else? She is getting scammed by so many people I don't know how to help anymore.
