It's spelled Psychic. I don't really believe them but have you seen that Sylvia Brown lady on the Montel show??? She's right on most of the time. I predict some things before they happen and it's scary but I think it's just luck. Maybe some people are more intuitive than others and that's how they predict things.

Psychics don't "know" anything. They do know techniques to get information or make guesses based on observation. Also, people tend to remember what "psychics" guessed right but forget what they got wrong.
For example, the guy asks, "Is there a connection with someone whose name starts with M?" Then you say, oh, yes, my mother's name was Mary.
Later, you might say, "He knew my mother's name was Mary." No, he didn't. YOU told him that.
Why do these dead people speak in riddles? Why are they just giving numbers or letters? If they can do that, why can't they just say, "My name is Mary and my birthday was October 16th"? Psychics are frauds. All of them.

I don't think so, but it's just an opinion.
Look at Sylvia Brown... her readings are so safe, and she only feeds of the answers of guests.
An example of this is "I'm sensing a male with an S in their name". The guest will say "Oh, that must be my Uncle Stevie".
Or, "I'm sensing an elderly man who has passed". Since everyone knows an elderly man who has passed, the guest will relate to the question.
I believe that psychics are masters at reading responses of the living, not the dead.

I don't think they are, I think they go by everyone else,,,,I could give a prediction of a friendly voice on the phone and they would probably say, "yeah that happened to me and then tell me more of their life history and then I would say....yes then you felt like this...and then they would willingly tell me more"...I believe it is a con and you should too. But if you believe them, then I hope what ever good thing they say, will come true for you.

no. they ask you certain questions and watch your reactions if it is in person otherwise they ask you questions and give you a general statement. like someone is your life is having financial problems and either you will say yes or no and so on

No. They ask questions, then they generalize, until they get something right. But that's only part of it, They are all full of it.
