Gypsy: Mary Demitro (Mary Young), Mary's Psychic Card & Palm Reader
Location: Sarnia, Ontario, Canada
Dear Readers,

I wish to tell you my story of being scammed for close to fifty-thousand dollars by a so called Gypsy / Psychic / Spiritualist that lives in Sarnia, Ontario (Canada).

She goes by the name of Mary's Psychic Card & Palm Reader. She goes by two names: Mary Demitro or Mary Young and please watch out for this one! This person preys on the naive and the elderly. This experience took about 5 years for me to finally wake up and be really suspicious at her methods and her surroundings. The shame and guilt I feel is tremendous and never ending . How in the world did this happen to me and worst of all is, I punish myself over and over again asking the question of how I could have been so stupid and so suckered in for all those years. Not only did she victimize me but I find myself victimizing my self worth and trust in human kind again and again , questioning every flaw about myself Not only did this scum of the earth take my money but I handed it over to her with trust as one human being to another. I have been stripped of what little self worth and self dignity I have left. The sad thing about all this is you can not comprehend it or understand it until it happens to you! The victims of this crime are abused emotionally and psychologically and abused financially.

She runs her scam through the house she rents at East Str in Sarnia, Ontario, and I being curious wanted to see what it would be like to have a reading. Well I went one summer day and had a reading that would change my life forever. She is a small petite Romanian Woman innocent looking enough but very forceful and intimidating at the same time. She did the Tarot Reading for me in a small secluded room with all her Religious Artifacts about the room making it look like she did God's work and not the Devil's work or practice any Evil. She has candles and oils that she sells for outlandish prices. Her fee is $50.00 or so I thought, little did I know it would cost me more. She told me that I was cursed and that evil surrounded me, that was brought upon me by my enemies who are evil people. She told me to remove the curse that it would cost me $2,000.00 dollars and that she could remove it with her psychic abilities and her spirit guides. Well I can not tell you the terror that woman put in me. Its like these people see or find defects in your personality and prey upon them. They try to gain your trust with religion and spirituality. Well what turn out to be two - thousand at the start turned out to be fifty- thousand and she knew I had the money.

She would always ask for cash and stated she did not take checks because it did not have the same vibrations as cash did. She did these ceremonies with this incense that she would wisk over my head and body and light these candles chanting some sort of prayer. Well the rest of this sad but true story is to embarrassing to go into detail about. I will say one thing though when I did start to question everything, I called the police to report her and they stated to me that I would have to press charges and then my name and my family name would be in the papers and if that was not bad enough my family runs a business in this city. Just the thought of humiliation and shame for myself and my family I could not bear. So dear readers I bear the shame all alone and she got away with it to victimize another. You see, these people who run these scams rely upon the emotions of guilt and shame in their victims not to come forth, especially those who have so much to lose. So Please Be Warned!
