TIK TOK SCAMS

PSYCHICS OF TIK TOK

For many people today we try to find answers for the past, present and future happenings in our lives. With social media it’s easier than ever to locate a person claiming to be a Psychic, Clairvoyant or Medium. But are these people real or are they scam artists.

The most popular social media site to locate these today is Tik Tok. But, buyer beware!

Recently, a South Carolina man was scammed for $400 by an alleged Psychic who told him she could help his love life. This Psychic goes by the name Becky Lee and uses CashApp or Venmo for her payments under names of Becky Lee and Hailey Lee.

She informed him that the service would be a total of $375 for her help (just for material) and that she was not charging him for her time and energy, because she truly wants to help him.

Lee called him 4 or 5 times a day for 5 days. Telling him the negativity was very high and that she needed more materials, which meant more money. Lee wanted him to take out a loan for $3500 and informed him he could keep $200 for himself, but she needed the other $3300 if he wanted her to be successful.

The gentleman was attempting to transfer what he had in his account in good faith through Bank Of America. It was there that things started to come to light.

Bank Of America held the transfer for security reasons. When the gentleman called to find out why they informed him that the entity he was transferring to was listed as suspicious in their system. And upon further conversation was informed it was a known scam account.

We looked into Ms. Bailey Lee and discovered she has been at this for quite some time. She was charged with fraud in 2015 in Colorado stealing money from the Lacosta clothing heiress under the same pretense.

Lee has a dedicated social media presence in order to ensnare her victims: Facebook- trashyqueen_,

The gentleman was advised by the Las Vegas Police to contact the FBI as this was more likely an Inter-State crime.

Sadly, this gentleman is not the only victim of such scams. In many cases the money is simply gone for these victims.

We have been on Tik Tok for several days now and see hundreds of individuals who proclaim their ability to see the future and help individuals with spells. When one listens to these individuals key words jump out at you. Most of these self proclaimed psychics use words such as “beloved” and state their list for clients are almost full.

Nearly all of these individuals start their Tik Tok Live with a disclaimer stating its for entertainment purposes, and none of them charge a fee but ask for donations for their services. These donations range from $5 to $500 and higher.

It’s important to know that seeking answers for a persons situation is normal, and seeking alleged outside help to understand it is also normal. But with everything in life one must do their due diligents in these matters. A “Quick Fix” is not always the answer.

This being said we did notice several individuals on Tik Tok who did not charge for their services in such matters. These individuals had a dedicated following of people willing to state that they did help and did predict properly their outcomes.

If you believe in these abilities or not is up to the individual, but when dealing with money one must always be cautious as ‘TIS THE SEASON FOR SCAMMERS”!
