Almost every one of us wants to look into our future. One out of curiosity, the other to solve complex problems set by life. And we also want happiness, even for those who have it. Psychics and all kinds of magicians skillfully play on these human weaknesses. And we bring them our money to become richer, more successful, happier. Magicians really get rich and live happily ever after. And we, their gold mine, are just waiting and hoping. Someone may object that in the history of mankind there were real seers, for example Nostradamus or Vanga. So maybe the clairvoyant Maria Duval is a talent from God?
Biography
The life of a seer is hidden behind a veil of secrecy. It is only known that she was born in 1938, lives in sunny and hospitable Provence, in the south of France, although she was born in Milan. Her real name is Carolina Maria Gambia, Maria Duval is a fictional pseudonym. Her parents were aristocrats, and her uncle Guido Wissalin had psychic abilities. He served as a clergyman and was very fond ofesoteric, even wrote several books on the subject. Perhaps little Mary inherited her uncle's gift. She did not like school, she did her homework without desire, but she received good grades. Even then, the girl noticed that she would somehow find out the correct answers and the course of solving problems she did not understand. In the future, Maria Duval used her gift as a source of existence. She has an adult son, Anthony Palfrow, a daughter-in-law, Dominique Crosseti, and three girls, Morgan, Isaura and Solena, whom they raise together. By the way, an actress lives in Mexico with the same name and surname and almost the same age as the prophetess.
Maria Duval's business
After working for some time as an ordinary seer and achieving fame, Maria Duval created a company for compiling horoscopes, natal charts, making amulets and amulets. The company was called Astroforce. In the market of magical services, it has existed for many years and quite successfully. The reason for this was the coming true predictions of Madame Duval. So, she helped Bridget Bordeaux find her beloved dog, together with the police she solved several crimes, in particular, she helped find kidnapped people, contributed to the success of many politicians, artists, businessmen. For these and other merits, she was awarded the high honor of visiting the Vatican and personally talking with the Pope. In 1997, Duval sold her company to Hong Kong-based He alth Tips Ltd. Now Madame Duval heads the Institute of Parapsychology in Kallas, and the new Astroforce does not hesitate to use her name to foolsimpletons.
Activities of the current Astroforce
The new owners of the company continued the business started by Madame Duval. They are engaged in the provision of magical and esoteric services, make horoscopes, make individual amulets, reveal the future with an indication of all upcoming problems and ways to eliminate them. The company's officials claim that Maria Duval, whose talisman can be purchased by anyone, creates a telepathic connection with their clients, so all the magical services provided by the company are equivalent to the services of the seer herself. It seems that there is nothing wrong with this, if you do not take into account the fact that the clairvoyant does not cooperate with the company. All horoscopes, cards and talismans are made by anyone, but not by Duval. The second unpleasant moment is the extreme intrusiveness of the company. Its representatives are so zealous in offering their services that dozens of complaints are filed against them in many countries, and in New Zealand they banned Astroforce advertising altogether.
Newspaper ducks
One of the helpers to expand the clientele for deceivers is the media. How it works? In various newspapers, on the Internet, sometimes in magazines, the “whole truth” about Maria Duval is placed with a description of her reliable forecasts. The “thank you from customers” approach is also actively used. Stories are being invented about how the clairvoyant Maria Duval helped such and such to get rid of the curse, start a family, become a millionaire. Fictional characters colorfully describe all their troubles andmagical rescue. Below is the address of how to contact the clairvoyant in order to ask her questions of interest for free. The word "free" truly has magical properties, because it buys thousands of simpletons who have forgotten where the free cheese is. After writing a letter, a person will be stopped by a fish that has swallowed the bait.
"Selfless" salvation
Whoever sends a letter to a clairvoyant will definitely receive an answer with a description of future troubles and an offer of help. The magic ritual itself is promised to be free. The unfortunate person has to pay only some of the funds with which Duval will carry out the ritual. If you think about it, it's fair. Why should she try to save a person unknown to her, and even spend money on items for the ritual? So people send money to the indicated address, denying themselves everything and even borrowing at interest. Correspondence can last for years, because the troubles of the unfortunate victims and their families are not translated. The second way you can get hooked is by filling out innocent questionnaires or solving simple puzzles. The person sends the answer to the editor. After a while, a letter arrives at his postal address with a warning about the misfortunes awaiting him and a text that the hereditary astrologer Maria Duval will help get rid of them for free. Of course, not all publications are engaged in such activities. A lot of newspapers and magazines are completely unrelated to fraud. However, there are also those who sell Astroforce the addresses of their readers.
Becoming a millionaire is easy
The third variant of deception is happy letters. They do not come from France and certainly not from Marie Duval. Senders can be unknown organizations from different cities of Russia. Where do they get the names of people, their addresses and phone numbers, is covered in darkness. They send letters to everyone indiscriminately - both pensioners and very young, both women and men. In a letter, a person is joyfully informed about a big win, for example, a car or several million. Happiness is at hand, it's up to the small. All you need to do is buy some inexpensive goods or transfer a small amount of money, and a million will be in your pocket. In order for the victim to believe in his lucky star, the letter is signed with the name Maria Duval. A photo of a clairvoyant, and sometimes manuscripts written in an incomprehensible language are attached. Those are some nice companies. Ostap Bender with his "Horns and Hooves" is far from them.
What Maria Duval is doing with our money
There are almost 9 billion people on the globe. Even if one in a thousand writes a letter to her, there will be several bags of letters. No person can cope with such an avalanche of correspondence, especially since everyone will not have time to make a personal horoscope. But Maria Duval is already under eighty, the age is quite respectable. Of course, she never wrote any letters to anyone and did not stuff herself with correspondence. She already has enough to do. Despite her 76, the seer travels actively, “sitting on her suitcases” all the time, as she says, because many people in different countries are waiting forMaria Duval will come to him, whose predictions come true with amazing accuracy. It is unlikely that the clairvoyant takes part in the fraud of Astroforce and other companies. However, she cannot not know that the scammers are hiding behind her name. Why she doesn't react is a mystery.
Madame Duval in Russia
In 2008, the clairvoyant visited Russia. Cheerful and smiling, she stepped off the plane. In the capital, she walked the streets with interest, took many pictures, even from the windows of her hotel room. Maria Duval made a forecast about Russia, which she handed over to journalists. She predicted Putin's return to the presidency, although she noted that he would be a rather tough leader. By the way, the well-known Pavel Globa said that Medvedev would be president. For the Russians, the clairvoyant prophesied an increase in we alth and financial success. For the country as a whole, Madame Duval predicted, within a five-year period, raising the standard of living to the European level, discovering new oil and gas fields and becoming world leaders. Well, something has already happened. The rest - time will tell.
Prophecies for the future
If the prophecies about Russia are true, then the predictions of the future seem fantastic. Maria Duval says that the dollar will soon collapse, people will start working from home and take a full 365 days of vacation every three years. People will also check their he alth at home. Madame Duval does not specify about the treatment, but I am sure that people will live for a long time, up to 140 years. Earthlings will not have a single religion. On the contrary, new religious trends will appear, andfar from the most peaceful. Technological progress will make a huge leap. In our orbit, not only satellites and their fragments will fly, but numerous factories. The life of earthlings will move underground, where cities, parks and even forests will be created. The development of sea and ocean expanses will also be more active. Women will manage all this, and men will deal exclusively with space. They colonize 8 planets, one of which is Mars. There, by the way, they will find life. And a tourist route will be opened on Alpha Centauri, although the star is 4 light years away from us. This is such a wonderful future. Too bad none of us will live to see it.
