Christine Hurley - The Flamboyant Psychic

 
Back in October 2007, I posted a short message about a psychic who was arrested for fraud. I linked to Mike's Weekly Skeptic Rant because he had an interesting multiple choice question [see Psychic Arrested in Calgary].

A Calgary psychic named Christine Hurley posted a comment where she claimed to be as interested as the rest of us in weeding out psychic frauds. (Yes, I do see the irony.)

Since then, she has posted several more comments designed to promote her "skills" in psychic reading. You can benefit from her psychic powers by charging $120 to your credit card for a 30 minute phone reading [Christine Hurley: Prices]. An even better bargain is one hour on the phone for $150!

I'm not exactly sure how this works. Presumably Ms. Hurley will tell you all the important things you need to know in the first 30 minutes. Maybe there are some interesting details that require another half hour.

Read the comments and testimonials that are accumulating at Psychic Arrested in Calgary. It's really amazing to see how some people can be completely duped by Christine Hurley into believing that she has psychic powers.

I wonder why she spends so much time collecting $120 (CDN) from her suckers clients when she could "easily" pocket $1,000,000 (US) in James Randi's One Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge? Does anyone know why she hasn't collected the prize? As a true psychic she must know how Randi's test is going to turn out.
