Brysing is right
People who really truly believe that they have gifts from God do the work for free,when my mom was really sick she tried everything
Nothing worked but this one quack truly thought God blesse His hands and worked on her for hours the only part I remember was him wrapping her head in plaster then when it dried cracking Eggs on it
This was silly but to him he was full of glory singing and chanting away,he did this but he did it for free

Lola, all Moderators will gag these scammers.The ones you have named were gagged by me; so they cannot post on the Forums. But we cannot stop your e-mails. Only you can do that. Just Block them! Otherwise they will keep pestering you.
Deffo a scam...there are so many out there, we simply can't keep up. But I agree, anyone who outright defends someone who is asking for that much money, probably with no results, is either sucked in by the alure of it all, or is one themselves.
People seem to forget that you can do it all yourself for free, it's like living in the countryside and buying in bottled air, its an unnecessary expense that won't do you any more good that what you already have.
Thanks Brysing, I never believed them at all but rather used it as a way to find out how they operate and try and help others who may believe their lies and hand over their money, if I have saved one person from falling for this then I'm happy

The problem with these Confidence Tricksters is that it takes five Moderators to ban them.When we do that, they simply open a new account in a different name. So, all we can really do is gag these people. We simply do not have the time for five Mods to get together and ban the hundreds who "try it on". Each member must Block the e-mails!
But any member who "spots" a Scam should report it to a Mod.
I don't think Mayline is a Scam. But she does say that materials are needed for spells; they are not!

The only person who can ban an IP is the Site Administrator. Unfortunately if an IP is banned it catches not only the scammer but also any innocent members who use the same IP. That's why Pet is reluctant to use that method.
If someone contacts you here offering something like a spell, be suspicious. If they then try to get you off the site where mods don't have authority, don't give them any contact information and tell a mod about it.
As Brysing said, spells don't need specific materials. You can change them to make what you have work. Also, there is really no reason why you should have someone else perform magic for you with so much knowledge readily available in books and online.
It says "don't agree to send people money" in several prominent places on this site for a reason.
I was scammed by idorea: when I had another screen name here, referred to her by another member, to help me to get my money back from a con artist who took my life savings. I have sent my top dollars gradually that came up close to $800. My gut feelings and my vivid dreams told me they were fraud, but I wanted to believe otherwise.
The reason I haven't suspected them was because I didn't know much about scam, I thought everyone here is sincere and caring like me, so I did not expect to be a victim to this kind of crime, but I also blame myself for not listening to my gut feelings and my dreams, but at least I can help others to protect themselves, and it's comes from my own experience. Today I know that these scammers are responsible for me being blocked to signing in back with my original profile which is sad because I have contributed a lot and not sure anything is still there since I was blocked for using my information to sign in.
Now I know they were responsible to complaining about me to block my account. Her screen name and profile was:
http://www.spellsofmagic.com/profile.html?profile= 315382
and her facebook link was: or still is: https://www.facebook.com/messages/vida.smith.714 known as Dr Vida Smith, and her supplier Dr. Idowu oluwaseyi.
If you hired someone from here and other spellcasters sites, than most likely they will complain about you and you will be banned from these sites not knowing why. The reason is, they don't want you to know it's them, so they can keep scamming others. Too bad the admin here does not confirm, the false allegations before they ban members.
If this happens to you; and you already sent money, please contact Western Union Fraud department and report the activity with the person's name and info. https://www.westernunion.com/us/en/fraudawareness/fraud-home.html
Also report them to Fraud Victim Advocacy http://www.fraudaid.com
Idorea emailed me that she deleted her profile on here, after I confronted her with scamming me. Because her florida information and her contact number was fake and no one at the university knew anything about Dr. Vida Smith... and her facebook picture was an identity stolen picture, not hers.
