To tell people before or after she does a "spirit reading" that she is fake and does not communicate with the spirit world?

[whylie]

Hi all changed name so don't get recognised!
Friend claims to certain people that she communicates with the spirit world.
She told me this when we first started talking, to which I just said oh really interesting!
I know she is fake due to been there when she has said she is communicating with (who ever) to a person she tends to know or know of.
E.g ; Went to my cousins for a reading from a spiritualist, friend came along too. I went into other room to get my reading, Whilst friend and cousin and other people sat in living room. So I came out of my reading (which was interesting to say the least!) to find my cousin, Shocked,amazed dumb founded to say the least.
Friend goes for her reading, I ask cousin what is up? She then tells me my friend gave her a reading..😒...And my cousin was telling me she has got everything spot on, Cousin tells me everything she had said.
Everything my friend said to my cousin was everything I had told her in general convo, things we did as kids, how cousin finally went to live with her nana in her teens, what cousins mum is like, Cousins nana has had cancer for decades etc etc!
I didn't say nothing to my cousin or to my friend.
My cousin thinks my friend is gifted! But I know it is just total BULL SHIT!
Don't get me wrong I'm not saying that all people who claim they can can not! Just my friend can not!
Any ways there is a lovely lady I know who recently lost her dad..😔..suddenly!
I was talking to her about coping as I lost my mum unexpectedly at a young age.
My friend was over hearing and started to join in, lady asks if I have been to a spiritualist as she is interested due to her loss, which a lot of people do as you want to get close to the one you have lost.
Well my friend says"I communicate with spirit all the time", Lady "oh can you? Really as I would love a reading from my dad".
Friend " oh I'm tired all my power points are closed right now as it exhausting having them constantly at you with info" etc etc!
This lady is so lovely and I feel like telling her my friend is a liar..🤥...the reason been she wouldn't read the lady was because she knows nothing about her! And my friend has been trying to get info out of me and a couple of others about the lady, I have not let slip anything, lady keeps asking friend has her dad came through and friend makes up BS excuses, I've been ill, been stressed need mins clear when communicating with spirit BS BS BS!!!

Do I tell the lovely lady that she is a Bull Shitter?

OR
Feed friend false info to make her look like a Ct ?
OR
Don't say anything as this lovely lady may feel at ease by thinking her dad has came through to communicate with her, once my friend manages to get some info on the lady?

I will be seeing the lady tomorrow and if you agree on the first one that I should tell her, then tomorrow I shall do that!

Sorry for long post, punctuation and spelling mistakes...really tired and this been playing on my mind!

Eh?

All so-called psychics are fake, so it's a bit academic really.

Erm, there’s no reasonable evidence anyone can communicate with the spirit world or even that there is a spirit world. I honestly believe every person who claims to do this is making a false claim. Having said that I also think some people who say they can believe they can (or partly believe) and I think that, like religious rituals, for some people the belief can be comforting and meaningful and make them feel better. I think therefore if it’s not hurting someone else then a bit of shared delusion can be harmless. The nice woman you are worrying about has obviously decided to look for comfort or solace in a spiritual reading and it might as well be your friend as someone else. I’d worry if someone is being taken advantage of financially or in some other way so if your friend was charging someone a lot of money or giving them terrible advice that they might take seriously then i’d worry. Otherwise I’d leave them to it.

I wouldn't tell her, I think it's best people make up their own minds about things like this. It may well bring her comfort, I wouldn't get involved in any way at all

It's all fake, people get their info in different ways or just say things that are vague enough that the listener will interpret it within their own context. Surely everyone knows this?

What Basta said.

I’d say something if the friend expected money

Is she charging for the reading?

As everyone else has said it’s all fake anyway but if she’s obviously using these people for financial gain then tell them but if it’s just a bit of nonsense I would leave it be

No she is not expecting money (not that I know of anyways)
I understand people seek comfort as I did when my mum passed.
So that why I wasn't sure on wether to tell the lady or just leave it as she may seek comfort.
Don't get me wrong I have distanced my self from friend since as I cant stand liars.
Just peoples emotions are very sensitive and how she can just brazenly lie to their faces and acts concerned 🤨
Knowing damn well she is lying!

I think you should be advising your friend to stop what she's doing and make her see your point. It's wrong to play on people's emotions.

Is she Mo Harris by any chance?

Side splitting;
No...Sorry it not Mo Harris love the cheeky grin at the end..👍...

Another reason I distanced my self from her is when you have a different opinion to hers or you challenge her about something, she will be adamant she is right!...if she says the grass is blue!...then it's blue!...😳..🤨

I presume people who get readings know they are being duped on one level anyway. If they want to suspend belief or spend money on this stuff, that’s a weird hobby but it’s up to them.
They won’t go and find a genuine reader instead since there aren’t any. So the only outcome would be to lose your friend. I would certainly tell your cousin that you had told your friend all that info though, and laugh it off.

If she’s not asking for money I would keep out of it especially with the lady who has suffered a loss.

She may be very comforted by your friend and you then telling her it’s all fake would be quite cruel really.

Slanetylor; Actually I am going to tell my cousin about my friend as at that moment other people were there and where we live there was a fatal crash and one of the victims family members was there at my cousins, When friend began doing her "readings" asked lady her name same surname as victim, well as you could imagine my friend had a whale of a time reading her!!
So hence why I never said nothing as this lady was sobbing uncontrollably by what friend was BS!

Ohmydays; I totally understand that if I do tell her it could be quite cruel and obviously I don't want her to hurt anymore than she does now.
But to know that friend is lying to these vulnerable people eats me up!

Ya know what enough is enough!
I'm going to tell her that if she "reads" anyone I know or care about I'm going to tell everyone she nothing but a cruel attention seeker ,who preys on peoples emotions when they are at their very lowest and weakness for her self gratification which is just playing sick!...😠...
Thanks for the comments
🤞...can go to sleep now..😴

I would tell.
