Maria Duval

Today we recieved our 4th "psychic" :mad: letter. It came from a Maria Duval and she refers to a Nicos Daskalos as the one who told her to contact us. She states that they have "extraordinary *****s" :rolleyes: and they work on "cases" together. The letter is 5 typed pages front & back,(which I have not bothered reading completley) and the jist of the letter is basically saying the same as all the rest, starting July 6th good fortune is headed our way, but without her help, we will not recieve it :rolleyes: . She ONLY charges $1 for each piece of parchment we will need to make all our dreams come true, plus a $3 fee for the first class shipping she will use to send the parchment for a total of only $10, which isnt much, but just imagine if 50,000 people send just $10, that is not a small amount. I would just like to know if anyone else has recieved this letter and see their take on the situation. :D

Re: Maria Duval

Yep, Got the same letter, different date. It is a scam like Marissa Von Trap and Skye Alexander. Dump it in the circular file, and use your time for other things.

Re: Maria Duval

I've been receiving letters from Maria Duval constantly...Each time I receive one, she thanks me for ordering something I never ordered!!! :confused: Her first letter spoke about Nicos Daskalos and how he told her to contact me. The letter stated there was an element that will affect my destiny if it is not neutralized...Just a few days after receiving this letter, I got a call from the bank saying a business deal I was involved in turned out to be fraud. :mad: I've known for years Duval was a scam, it was just a bit spooky at first!!! :rolleyes:

Re: Maria Duval

Thanks everyone I just received a letter 5 front & back claiming that a Nicos Daskalos asked her to contact me about my life, and of course out of the
goodness of there heart that they will wave there normal fee and it will
only cost me $10.00 for the (7) parchment paper. I bet its the same paper
that you can buy at any food store. Thanks again

Re: Maria Duval

[b]I've sent in a coupon with her promising a lot. I think she's a semi scamist. The number she gave to me for the lottery only won me $5.00 and the three luck numbers she gave me kept coming up in the Pick 3 lottery game. I think that just weird. I did send her $100.00 dollars for her services. I haven't recieve the promised astral clairvoyant reading ,or the two talismans that she promised. She does keep sending me her letters, I've recieved four letter which just asked for more money. I wrote her three times and she has not replied. I did consult a lawyer and soon she will be in her appropiate place. Anyone send her money? :D

Re: Maria Duval

I would like to take back what I posted for a few reasons. I did recieve my two talismans she has promised and the astral clairvoyant forecast too!I now think she is the real deal. Until then I will have confidence in her.

Re: Maria Duval

She help me win $225 and she does. I believe she really is a clairvoyant. The lucky numbers she gave me really did come up in the lottery. I did think she was scamming people, but now she's authenicated herself to me. The two talismans I recieved from her does in fact bring luck and other things promised.:L

Re: Maria Duval

I really believe she is a fake. Sometimes numbers match. :) No matter who gives you the numbers, it's still a game. I've received letters from Maria Duval occasionally for years. I've sent her money and received the 7 pachments. However, think about it. She asked that we send the parchments back after one year so someone else can use it. How can more than one person have the parchments at a time??? I've never received the tailsmen or the clairvoyance. Over the years, no of the numbers I ever received from her won me anything. I don't play the lottery to much, but I checked the numbers she gave me every week through the day she said they would be lucky and maybe one number at a time would show up each game...Her letters are not personal. I got a letter from her the other day thanking me for requesting something I didn't even request. At the end of the letter, (summarized) it said if you have not already sent your request for that item please fill out the last page and send $$$. :confused: I just had to laugh at that.

Re: Maria Duval

Wow I'm amazed. The talismans Maria Duval sent me really works.They've brought me lots of luck. I took it with me to the local casino and I won $200 and. I took it to bingo and won another $25 the first time and $50 the next time, I even won the drawing at bingo. It unbelievalble. I can't wait to see what I win next. At bingo I asked the talisman of Love and Friendsip to help me attract this certain person, and it did, he came over and started to talk to me. These talismans really do work. I'm actually wearing one of them right now. I even have pictures of them. This lady is not a fake. She really is pyschic because I know she. I know talismans do work, it depends on who infuses it with the positive evergy. Don't be so quick to judge Maria Duval
:)

Re: Maria Duval

I received a letter also, and googled maria duval. I am going to throw the letter out. I also looked at a youth oriented website spankmagazine.com, and the letter freaked out a lot of kids. That is just wrong.

Re: Maria Duval

I just wondered if the body of the letter from Nicos says the same thing to everyone, because yes, I did receive the same letter from Maria Duval. It did cross my mind that if everyone sent her 10 bucks - that's fast than standing on a street corner!!

Re: Maria Duval

I just received the same letter from Maria Duval and was quite shocked at what I read. However, I am a skeptic and had to look her name up and this is how I found you all. First of all what is a talisman and astral clairvoyant reading. Some of you have good things to say, but this seems like a scam to me and isn't this predicting the future and worshiping false idols. I don't trust it.

Re: Maria Duval

I won again at the casino. I won three times. First I won $50, then $100, and then a split winning. The talismans she sent me really works. Plus when I was still at the casino there was this attractive guy and I asked the talisman of love and relationship to help him talk to me.(Anyone one want pictures of the talismans she sent me?) He kept walking by then stood next to me. This really does works. I can't wait for what Maria has in store for me next. I am amazed. I have her phone number too! Yes!!! Well that's about it. :)

Re: Maria Duval

I have been recieving letters from MariaDuval for almost a year now. Every letter requests that I send either 30 or 35 dollars. I have never sent her any money for anything. Yet I get at least 1 (sometimes 2) letters a week. I did send her a letter after I got the first letter telling her that if she was such a good psycic that she would know that I didn't have 30 dollars to spare. The letters keep coming. How do You stop this????

Re: Maria Duval

If you've got an hour or so to spare, go to the Complete listing of Scams page provided by ScamNet, and spend some time laughing your socks off at the variations of this spam-scam.

There are so many variations of both the letter and the "psychics" in circulation you think they'd use their "psychic" *****s to at least come up with a better, more believable story.

Or, you could go to the Maria Duval Scam blog, where Ms Duval has a page dedicated to her and her scam.

It would all be funny if not for the fact so many people lose their hard earned money.

Why does she need a phone number ?

Surely with her *****s she could concentrate really, really hard, wiggle her nose like they do in "Bewitched", stars would magically shoot out, tiny bells would tinkle and she could communicate telepathically with you.

Just put a circle around your name and address with an arrow down writing the words "Return to sender;no longer resides at this address". ;)

Re: Maria Duval

I started getting letters from Maria Duval in March '06. I did send in the original $10.00, and later I recieved letter after letter. I am guilty of sending her money from time to time, yet I am also pleased that things have been going a bit better financially. I DO believe in psycic abilities...does she posses this gift, I cannot say. Yet, I do find it interresting that things have been a little less stressful in the money deaprtment. No, I have not won the lottery, or any "great sum" as promised. But maybe, just maybe, a little extra help doesn't hurt.
Please son't get me wrong, I'm not swearing by this woman. I have done a lot of research today and found more evidence that not, that points to her being a fake. Could be a coincidence, or a final break with some good luck...either way, how do we know for sure that results are a matter of faith. But I do know that I will NOT be sending her any more money. If she IS the real deal, then she would send the info to help,(as she so often boasts about) completely free of charge. Knowing that in helping so many others, KARMA will be back around to help her. Rather it be the winners sending donations as a thank you, or the wonderful feeling of knowing that she helped others have a better life. That's what I believe, and I just wanted to share it with all of you...

Have a great day, all. And I hope we all get to win the lottery someday :D

I have received letters from maria duval, but i started getting mail from her when i replied an ad that was in a magazine. I have received her talisman of luck and money, but it hasnt worked, probably because i put it away. I have this talisman but she says i have to give it back in a year. She says that there's only on of this talisman. Does anyone else have it right now? And she also charges a lot $35 all the time.

Re: Maria Duval

I also recieved a letter with the same writings as the others on how if I employ her that she would chase all the demons and bad luck away. She would also help me become wealthy beyond my dreams. I would like to believe that she could do all of this but I really don't think so. :( I also receive letters from:

The Seer- same address as Miss Elizabeth
Miss Elizabeth
Lise & Rose - did return money- They are sisters living is Swizerland.

Has anybody heard of these:
Messidor
Sandra Rochefort
Smaranda
Angela Almera

I got the same letter that you did, i ordered it. I havent received it yet, it's been 3 weeks now. I doubt it that i will be receiving it anyway.....ATTENTION!! Maria duval sells your names and addressess to other companies like sweepstakes, agencies that say that you have won money and to send a money order in order to process your report. Also something about the Eden Institude claiming that you will be happy and that they are going to help you, but really they are doing what maria is doing; selling you stuff, making you believe that they will bring you luck and happiness. BEWARE.

Re: Maria Duval

If they really say that they care for you and that they want to help you because they can. And they call themselves"your friends". Why are they charging money for help? If they really want to help out they wouldn't be billing money. And for example; if you bought something from them that they said that would change your life, why would they keep sending you other stuff/offers, if the one they already sent you is supposed to work or have helped you out already.

Re: Maria Duval

omg!! I was getting letters every week from Maria with necklaces, coins, magic eyes, etc. which I was to put under my bed, etc. It was ridiculous and she kept billing me constantly. I ignored it and it stopped. Will this show up on my credit report? I never signed or sent her ANYTHING!!

Re: Maria Duval

Hi, I'm new here, and from what I can tell, Maria Duval is full of crap. See, I come from people who actually (I know, it sounds crazy) do have extrasensory perception (ESP). Along with a history of voodoo practicioners and witches...I think it's hereditary...but back to maria and all her lying crap...

What's really funny, is that card readings, and "****** charging" for whatever pre-printed "talisman" she sends, doesn't really work over the mail. Postal workers (angry people that they are. I know...) touching the envelopes, contaminating them, it's impossible...I have to do things like that with the people in front of me. Money should never EVER come into play for any "psychic warnings" or "advice" that they have. Ethically, this person shouldn't be charging people. When I do a reading for someone I make sure that they know, up front, that I don't charge for it. If they think they should pay me for it, I tell them that if they insist on monetary contributions, then I would prefer them to place it in an opaque bag with my head turned so that I do not see it. I always request that people use my advice to help themselves, and then to help others where applicable.
In conclusion, I would have to say that if someone claims to be a "true" clairvoyent, psychic, chosen one, or whatever they wish to be known as, then they already have the info and they're giving it to you free of charge...If they know anything about what they claim to know about it [being psychic], then they know about karma, and they know that what they're doing has reprocussions....

If anyone would like the crazy newbie to shut up now...I will. :) But this is my opinion on maria duval, both as a someone who recieves her crap in the mail, and as someone who knows the ethical side of what us true "fortune tellers" do (yes laugh you know you want to). Oh, and for the record...her necklaces and "talismans" aren't that great...they're very cheaply made in my opinion.

Re: Maria Duval

[quote=sweetie-pie]Today we recieved our 4th "psychic" :mad: letter. It came from a Maria Duval and she refers to a Nicos Daskalos as the one who told her to contact us.


I have been reading her letters for ages now , I don't send any money ,But do agree to give her 10 % of the winnings I receive because of her help !!!
What the hell , I play the lottery any way !!! And if I do hit big ,and pay her , I will be able to deduct it from my taxes as proffeessional consultant !!!

Re: Maria Duval

Hi,
Last week I received a first letter from Maria Duval about nikos and all that thing which everyone has read about. As $10 was something I could afford it , I sent it to her. Still waiting for my 7 parchments to come.(Hahahhhhaa). On this Monday I got another mail from her and as well as from one maria ross of CA(psysic?) and I lost 20$ that day.Spooky? may be. Today I received another letter from Maria Duval asking me to send her another $45 for some talisman and for prediction of my future.And I did not do good in my exams.......coincidences!!!????
Still waiting for my 7 parchments.....hopefully I will get in next decade?!!! perhaps..who knows? What she told me about myself I already knew.so there was nothing new in her prediction about me, considering the fact that most people know about their starssigns under which they are born.

http://www.denisdutton.com/cold_reading.htm

Quote:
Cold Reading is the term of art used in the magician’s trade to describe the practical use of the Barnum Effect in the give-and-take of an interview situation. Though interest in the technique by professional psychologists dates from the late l940s, it has long been put to profitable use by fortune-tellers, clairvoyants, tarot card readers, astrologers, tea leaf readers, spirit mediums, and others who wish to convey the impression that they possess paranormal insight into the client’s personality, current life situation, and future.
Quote:
It is a one-size-fits-all reading which can be delivered to “any adult person of either sex.” As Larsen puts it, it is “based upon events which occur in the vast majority of human lives yet, adroitly stated, the reading will become personalized and the person receiving the reading will be willing to believe that the seer has correctly told the past and probably foreseen the future.”
Here is an example of a cold reading:
Quote:
You have a great need for other people to like and admire you. You have a tendency to be critical of yourself. You have a great deal of unused capacity which you have not turned to your advantage. While you have some personality weaknesses, you are generally able to compensate for them. Your sexual adjustment has presented some problems for you. Disciplined and self-controlled outside, you tend to be worrisome and insecure inside. At times you have serious doubts as to whether you have made the right decision or done the right thing. You prefer a certain amount of change and variety and become dissatisfied when hemmed in by restrictions and limitations. You pride yourself as an independent thinker and do not accept others” statements without satisfactory proof. You have found it unwise to be too frank in revealing yourself to others. At times you are extroverted, affable, sociable, while at other times you are introverted, wary, reserved. Some of your aspirations tend to be pretty unrealistic. Security is one of your major goals in life.
Basically, fake psychics give you a reading; whether it be in person, on the phone, on paper, or contained within an email. The reading they give you can be applied to just about everybody; most people can relate to it in some way. Fake psychics like Maria Duval are only in it to swindle the naive and uninformed out of their money. Please do not be duped by her, it is a scam.

I'm actually wearing one of them right now. I even have pictures of them. This lady is not a fake. She really is pyschic because I know she. I know talismans do work, it depends on who infuses it with the positive evergy. Don't be so quick to judge Maria Duval

Hi rezkidrocket,

You are very right! Maria Duval is a real person. I am new to this forum and this is my first post because I like to add some words.

I benefitted a lot from Maria Duval too. I even got a video interview in my blog about her.

Initially I did not believe in this too but she has really improved my life and my luck too. Since I know her, I have won some lotteries and jackpots in 2006. My outlook with life has been more positive too.

With thanks,
Mere T.

Re: Maria Duval

If you don't like the letters,don't read them and get so upset.I personally like reading them.The letters have helped me and I've only got the $10.00 thing and I received the package. It took along time to research what was in the documents. Some people do have the gift,while other are just players. It's just and ad that come via mail like stores etc. if you don't like it, just throw it away ,and have a nice day.

Re: Maria Duval

What she is offering in the way of parchments is valuable advice
to those seeking for Spiritiual laws and practical advice as to how
to get your life together.

I sent for the parchments and was glad that I did.

Maria is a well documented psychic and really does have
something to offer. However, she does go overboard with
her offers, once you have accepted the parchments.

I still have received valuable advice from her and her timing
as regards events that may happen to an individual is seldom
wrong.

My advice is to use your own judgement as regards her offers.

I have benefited from having her as a psychic counselor.

peace to you
the magic continues
Bruce126

Re: Maria Duval

I've received 11 letters from Maria Duval since September. They have more different schemes and ways of predicting the future, but of course, only with her help - otherwise, your life goes down the dumper. I have a prediction for her: she might soon be spending a long time in a federal pen! Just a mental picture, but a good one! buckboyy

Re: Maria Duval

She sucks you in once and keeps sending crap. You get nothing, she makes alot of
money telling you you'll going to make alot of money or win the lottery.
End of story.
