DIDN’T SEE THIS ONE COMING

SquareOne News

by Chris Hammond


New consumer protection regulations look set to force a change in the way psychics and spiritualists conduct their business.


The British Government is seeking to bring the multi million pound fortune telling industry into line with other commercial enterprises by regulating its advertising practices and trading standards.


Under the proposed legislation it will be easier for members of the public to pursue legal action against mediums who are judged not to have delivered the service advertised.


In the previous twenty years there have been less than ten convictions for psychics practicing their trade fraudulently and dishonestly.


Last week SquareOne sent me to a well respected tarot reader for a little bit of fortune telling. Starting this coming Monday we’ll be running a regular ‘Fortune Feature’ detailing just how accurate or otherwise the predictions have been.


Excited? You would be if you were told to expect a job offer very soon . . . we’ll see.
