She claims to be a psychic. Probably one of the biggest frauds, that I have ever seen. And she has made a mint on the gullible.
At one time she told James Randi on the Larry King show that she was willing to undergo testing for psychic ability. She could have won a million bucks if she passed. But of course backed out for obvious reasons. Why further prove she is a fraud? And by the way, that prize has never been claimed by anyone. Because no one can prove any kind of paranormal activity. Er, could it be because there isn't a such thing? Mmmmm.
Included some links to some of her screwups.

I love her books and find them most fascinating. However, her appearances on the Montel WIlliams leave me with the impression that she is tired and worn out. I do not feel that she is always giving people accurate readings. The rules are that the audience is not allowed to negate what she says as alot of times what she tells you will supposedly come to you later. I don't feel there is enough time on that show and that she does not work well under that format.

She is an outright fraud. Watch her. She uses New Age, cheese cake mumbo jumbo language telling people exactly what they want to hear. She charges large amounts of money and has yet to have made an accurate prediction. She has guessed wrong on so many occasions it's embarrassing. Check out the website if you want to see how wrong she is.
Also, although this has nothing to do with her psychic inability, she was convicted of fraud for stealing money from people.

I believe in Sylvia. I have seen her. Other people I know have seen her. I don't believe a word she says though. She has been too wrong on too many occasions to be given any credibility. Do a quick google to find some biig examples.

I met her. She is a trip! She was very earnest. I told her that sincerity of belief does not guarantee correctness... She wasn't too happy with me. Her sources are regular people like us and have their own biases too... I wish that she would be more careful with her advice.

I believe in Sylvia Brown. I can't imagine she's a robot or computer generated image.
I don't however, believe in her psychic abilities.

I believe she exists and is a fraud of the highest order. She was a fraud before she became a "psychic", a convicted felon indicted for grand larceny and guilty of securities fraud.
This woman didn't have a problem defrauding others out of their money before she became a psychic. So is there any reason now to think that she's changed her ways? Of course not. She's making money hand-over-fist by fooling people into thinking she has mystical powers.
Besides, you'd think she would have seen her felony conviction coming if she was a real psychic and changed her ways before it was too late. Didn't happen.
A fraud is a fraud is a fraud.

Just yesterday I angered a few people.I just repeated one of her claims.A couple of mental giants took that as making fun of them.That leads in to what I think of her.She's a very smart woman.She's also very dishonest.A con artist of great skill.She can gain peoples trust and remarkably hold on to it.Despite being exposed as a fraud multiple times.Her victims are loyal and protective of her.They think by knocking her we're somehow mocking them.If they think I'm making fun of them,and I'm not.Imagine how they'd feel if they could hear Sylvia's actual opinion of them?
