The Muscovite was afraid of "deadly damage" and gave the fraudster more than 900 thousand rubles.

In the northeast of Moscow, a woman was afraid of "deadly damage" and gave the fraudster more than 900 thousand rubles in an attempt to "heal" herself and her loved ones. This was announced on April 9 by a source of Izvestia.

"On March 7, an unknown woman came to the store where a 35-year-old Muscovite woman works. She stated that the woman had been fatally corrupted, and urged her to urgently perform a rite of "purification." They exchanged phone numbers, and after the work shift, the Muscovite went to her for an appointment, for which she paid 105 thousand rubles," the source said.

The unknown estimated her services at 200 thousand rubles and allowed the woman to give the missing amount later. The next day, she came to work with a Muscovite woman for the remaining money, and three days later she called again and offered to take the consecrated water from her. Having met the woman again, the fraudster said that she had another blight on her, and convinced her to hold a new ceremony for 600 thousand rubles.

After that, the "fortune teller" did not stop calling the Muscovite and continued to invite her for "checkups." During the next meeting, she stated that the damage fell on her mother, and then saw the negative impact on her roommate. Trying to escape from the "curse", the woman gave her another 190 thousand rubles, some of which she borrowed from her colleagues, but the fraudster continued to demand money. An inspection is underway.

Earlier, on April 3, it was reported that a pensioner from Moscow lost her only home and savings of 1.8 million rubles a year ago, allegedly under the influence of hypnosis. According to the woman, being under hypnosis or the influence of a fraudster, she reissued the apartment for her under a donation agreement.
