Con artist
The address of her "business" is 7237 S. West edge Avenue, Portage, MI. The spiritual advisors I talked to were her daughters and infrequently I would talk to "the mama" (that's what they called her) herself. I was in a bad place in my life and was desperate to find a solution to my chronic depression and overall bad luck. The young women I spoke with, one was named Erica and the other was Victoria, told me that I had a lot of darkness in my aura and that they could pray for me and get rid of it if I gave them some money so they could buy these expensive candles. I think they said they were from Canada or something (!) and were very top of the line, premium candles of some sort. So I would give them money, usually at least $200 per visit, and they would tell me how their work on me was going. They gave me a red ribbon to tie around my left wrist to protect me from any more "darkness" that might prey upon me in my daily life. They did act very caring, called me "sister", and listened to my problems and told me things were getting better. I was comforted by this and my life did seem a little more hopeful so I kept going back and giving them money. They spoke a different language to each other and then English to me. When I asked one of the daughters what language they spoke, she said it was a mixture of Greek and Italian. I became a regular visitor at their house and even ended up babysitting the son of one of the daughters one day. Luckily I went to another psychic who told me I was being scammed. I told Erica another psychic told me this and she said I wasn't supposed to tell anyone about "the work, " especially another psychic. I asked her why and she because "it's too much power." Anyway, I finally realized that I was being duped and I stopped giving them money. Unfortunately I felt so ashamed for being so easily taken in that I never really told anyone about this experience. I don't remember the exact amount of money they took from me, but I believe it was at least $1, 000 and I was a poor college student to boot! Stay away from this place if you live in Michigan or the Kalamazoo area. They are definitely con artists.
