  Exposed!  Angela. 

Here is the complete run down of what happened when I requested a free horoscope from Angela at astro-group.com  who describes herself as a professional Astrologer. I filled in the form in the form and got the responses shown below. As is usual with this sort of site, there is no e-mail address so that you can ask questions or ask for your money back when you find the report is not what you expected. 

  

For the purposes of this test I used a false name but the birth data I supplied was my own. As usual, there is important news and a wonderful outcome - providing I purchase her report. I can find no evidence of such things in my chart - but how would a member of the public who has no knowledge of Astrology know if what was being said was true or not? 

  

This style of hard sell is typical, and would undoubtedly sway gullible folk into spending money on a product of dubious value. It is also remarkably similar to Jenna who operates from the same company.

  

I have a large data base of scammers and frauds but you can find even more at the Ministry of Consumer Affairs http://www.consumeraffairs.govt.nz/scamwatch/reportedscams.html Note that Angela [Astro-group.com], who has been investigated here, is on their list.

  

The Consumer Fraud web site lists Angela [Astro-group.com] and Sara Freder among the scammers together with many more at http://www.consumerfraudreporting.org/psychicscams.php 

   

  


1st e-mail.

Hello Lee,
  
I've just opened my mailbox and wanted you to know that I've received
the form you sent me about 2 hours ago.  I also want you to know
that, as always when I prepare a reading for someone, I will use all my
energy and the skill I have acquired during my twenty years of
experience to prepare the report you have requested. My aim is to show
you that astrology is a priceless tool when used to build the future you
want instead of just taking things as they come and not living life to
the full.
This is why I aim to provide you with answers that are much more useful
and precise than anything you could find in the predictions for
your starsign you can find in the horoscope in any daily magazine.
I also want you to know that in most cases, when I receive a request for
a report, it is difficult to feel anything about the person until I
actually get to work on the reading. However, for certain others, and
this is much rarer, elements start coming through to me very strongly
and clearly before I even begin to study the person and these elements
are then confirmed in the reading itself.  Well Lee, this is the
case for you and I'm writing to you today because I wanted you to know
this.
Well, I'll get to work on your reading now and you should receive it
tomorrow morning or the day after tomorrow at the very latest.
  
Speak to you soon
Angela




2nd e-mail.

Dear Lee,

I have just finished the reading which you have asked me for and I am writing to you straight away as I have some very important news to tell you about your future in 2006.  Firstly I want to tell you that I am very certain about everything that I am telling you about as I have checked and double-checked all my results by comparing the position the planets will have in 2006 with the position they held at the exact moment of your birth Lee. It is because of this that I first realized that such an important event was ahead for you in 2006. This event will take place during a very rare and intense Transit which you will live through during 56 days of the first semester of next year.

  

So let me tell you now exactly what all this is about and why 2006 will mark the beginning of a brand new cycle in your life. I did in fact immediately perceive that you are much more than you think you are. Let me explain myself,  I have discovered that you have immense ressources within yourself which are unfortunately unexploited because of certain doubts and uncertainties which you have deep within you. This is a real shame and a waste of these valuable qualites of yours. Your hidden talents seem to be stronger and more powerful than in most of the people who come to see me.  You also have another powerful tool which could be a major bonus for you Lee but for the moment it turns against you as it is transformed  from a great sensibility to doubt and incertitude.....

  

I am very happy to be able to contact you today in that case, because things look set to change dramatically for you in 2006 and you will experience a sort of revelation, a revelation which you have been waiting for and which will permit you to discover the most important path for you in your life. You will suddenly realize exactly why you are on this Earth, what your goals are, what direction you should take and this revelatory event will allow you to radically transform your life.

  

This will be an event which will take place over the coming months at a moment when the Moon and the planet Pluto will both be in the same position which they were in at the precise moment of your birth (Pluto's position at the moment of your birth was (tag-Pluton) and the Moon's was 87°45'23.7335). This is going to create a particularly beneficial climate for you and added to this is the influence of Jupiter, the planet of chance, opportunity and success will be in Sextile  in your 12th House and it's position will mean that this astral body will be able to guide and protect your destiny during this 56 day period. This extremely favorable climate is going to favor a very important event which will appear as a revelation in your life and will be accompanied by an important encounter.
  

Note: This is complete rubbish - no such things exist in my chart. 

  

I am also very happy for you as I think that I can help you find the direction you seek in your life and to get the very most out of this event which will present itself to you. Today I know that I can help you to find that direction and be happy in life. This is not just hot air : I haven't had such a strong reading for somebody for quite a long time. The vibrations I got showed me that your life isn't what you'd like it to be. I find this a shame  because you do in fact have enormous potential and all you need to live life in happiness is to bring that potential out and use it to your best advantage

3 elements came through clearly to me about you:

1) You must make these decisions on certain precise days since on these days your astral configuration is at its maximum influential strength

2) To make the RIGHT decisions you must discover the unused talents you have and that only somebody competent will be able to reveal to you and this is extremely important for your future success in life.

3) During this transit you should not miss out on a very important encounter which could later be essential for your life.

  

I now want to let you know that I remain entirely at your disposition to produce a second reading for you Lee, a reading which will be far more complete in which I will determine all of the information which you need for this special period which means I will tell you which events are set to occur, when exactly this period will start, what revelations you can expect, who this person is who you should encounter and I will also tell you what your hidden qualities and talents are, how you may exploit them and what your true aspirations in life are. To do this kind of reading for you I need you consent as the work does take a certain time to complete. I have put a page online for you where you can ask me to start this reading:

3rd e-mail.

Hello Lee,
 
When I contacted you 2 days ago (about your astrological forecast) I forgot to tell you that you can see many testimonials about the people I have helped on my web page:
  

Note: And what proof have we that these are from real people?  
Just click this link:
  
(this one is secure) https://pro16.abac.com/atoll1/cgi-bin/angela.cgi?code=gzef2&R=%59%46%62%69%73%2120060316&fname=Lee
  


4th e-mail.

Hello Lee,
  
I have just looked again at the reading which I sent you a few days ago and I am contacting you today in order to summarize in just a few lines this information so that you fully understand one very important point. I also felt the need to contact you today as in analyzing your astral configuration again I had full confirmation of all which I had previously indicated to you. I was sure of what I told you just a few days ago (I do not commit myself unless I am completely sure) and today there is absolutely no doubt whatsoever. 2006 is a very important year for you during which some very significant changes will be made in your life.
 
You will soon be part of a very positive and favorable astrological period. During this period the planets Pluto, Saturn and the Moon will enter into your configuration simultaneously and will exert a very beneficial and intense influence upon you that will create an astral event which will not repeat itself for quite some time to come. These planets will approach the position in which they were in at the precise moment of your birth( (Pluto:121°13'35.0563, Saturn:39°39'40.5518 and the Moon:87°45'23.7335) and this represents an exceptionally powerful and influential moment in astrology.
 

Note: These 'positions' are wrong. 

  
The consequence of this configuration will be a period of intense favorability which will last for 56 days (2 lunar cycles). This period will bring you the opportunity you have been looking for to revolutionize your life and to find a firm and successful direction, due mainly to the positive influence of the planet Pluto. In the coming weeks there will be three days which are crucial since these days will have great influence on your future and you will have the enormous potential that will enable you to begin a new and exciting period in your life if you take advantage of it. If you want your life to change you need to know :
  
1) You must make certain decisions about your life on certain precise days since on these days your astral configuration is at its maximum influential strength
2) To make the RIGHT decisions you must discover the unused talents you have and that only somebody competent will be able to reveal to you and this is extremely important for your future success in life
  
But I must warn you, to precisely determine the dates of this period as well as all of the detailed counsel, exact moments, times and places which you must know in order to get the very best out of this period I will need some more information from you such as your time of birth to calculate your ascending sign and the position of your decans. Without this information it is impossible to go any further into your reading and these precise details cannot be guessed, they must be precisely calculated. You may give me the necessary information on my website by using the links below:
  
(this one is secure) https://pro16.abac.com/atoll1/cgi-bin/angela.cgi?code=gzef2&R=%31%2120060320&fname=Lee
or
http://www.astro-group.com/form.php3?code=gzef2&R=%31%2120060320&fname=Lee
 
You may of course go to a local astrologer with this information and this professional will be able to confirm what I have told you but you must not wait too long as this period is rapidly approaching and will bring you the resolution you are looking for in your life and an opportunity of this nature will not reoccur for a long time to come.
 
All the best and keep me informed, [How?]
 
Angela

7th e-mail.

Dear Lee,
 
My readings have shown me that we're getting closer to that all-important period of 56 days when you have the opportunity to discover your unused talents and use them to improve your life. Your future depends entirely on the decisions you will take in the coming weeks and I think it would be a shrewd move to take advantage of the coming favorable period to be sure to make the right decisions and solve your concern over your future. I am writing to you today because the reading I sent to you some weeks ago is 100% confirmed by a flash that I had about you. You know that I am an astrologer but I am first and foremost a psychic and the flash which I received about you confirmed all my findings about you on an astrological level.
 
I still haven't heard from you and sorry to be such a worrier but when I do a reading as clear as yours I really feel it's a waste if the person doesn't take advantage of it because their future happiness is at stake.
 
If you want me to study this information in detail for you, you can request your report on my site :
 
(this one is secure) https://pro16.abac.com/atoll1/cgi-bin/angela.cgi?code=gzef2&R=%34%2120060408&fname=Lee
or

Hope to hear from you soon.

8th e-mail.

Here we go again...
Hello there Lee,
  
I know that I have contacted you several times before I don't want either to appear too stubborn neither to disturb you much more. This message is one of my last Lee because I will not be able to offer any more than what I would like to propose to you today,  that's why I suggest that you take a moment to read this email in detail because of the important information I would like to tell you.
  
It seems obvious to me that 2006 will be a year full of chance, opportunity, big changes and decisions and you will have to take some very important decisions very soon indeed. These decisions need to be just the right ones as they will allow you to advance certain personal projects and to open the way to many new opportunities, notably concerning the issue which we both know is concerning you at this time, and these decisions can have a considerable impact on your year and during the years to come. I don't want to go too much more into this important point as I think that you have already well understood the implications of this particularly favorable period which I explained in my last message to you.
  
However what does worry me the most is that you have not yet consulted a professional to help guide you through these decisions, you have not yet contacted me or any another competent professional. You know who I mean, someone to give you an external point of view, a serious professional with a objective and impartial frame of mind who would be indispensable to you. Here are just two points to illustrate what I mean Lee:
  
A few weeks ago I jumped in my car as I had an appointment to go to but as soon as I started up the car, it started shaking an coughing and it did not seem to be going too well. It was very strange as just a few minutes before, the last time I had used it, it was absolutely fine. But now the real problem was that the car needed to be taken care of right away. I've driven a car for a long time now and I've been taught quite a lot about taking care of cars and I 'intuitively' knew that it was a spark plug which had blown and that the car needed a good clean up. What I didn't know was that the fuel injection had also gone and needed to be replaced urgently. This is something that the car dealership discovered when I took the car in for repair. Cars are just like people you know, they move around a lot and constantly go through many changes and this is why they need regular maintenance. Thanks to my experience with cars I am familiar with their workings but no matter how much I think I know about cars I will probably always go and ask a second opinion. And this is precisely why people consult astrologers. Yes they do have certain intuitions about themselves but they also want to know all the details and see if there is something else that they may be missing.
  
Another example is that I recently went to my doctor to get my eyes checked. I can 'intuitively' tell whether my eyes have got better or worse and whether I need a different pair of glasses or contact lenses in order to see more clearly to feel a little bit better. When I got there, my doctor went through all the tests and confirmed that yes indeed I did need a new pair of glasses and he then went through another series of tests to see what exact prescription I should have. After he had finished with that he then helped me make my appointment for my next checkup, even though it was over a year away and he promised to send me a reminder card when my appointment was close. My doctor was in fact doing exactly what astrologers do, he was confirming my intuition and then going in to examine in much greater depth what I felt I needed to have done to give me a better understanding of my situation.
  

And now comes the good news...
Don't worry Lee, I am aware that you already know that an astrological reading can bring you all the information which you are waiting for. I also know that what was stopped you so far from asking this reading from me is my fee of $58. As far as this fee is concerned, before going on to give you some very good news about this, I would first like to mention that this tariff is in fact very low considering the nature of the work that is being undertaken (between 40 and 60 pages with precise and detailed personal information). Usually this type of work is billed at $100 or more in a cabinet, this price is therefore very low indeed in comparison to all that which you will receive and I really do think it is a shame that you might miss out on the importance of this period and the wealth of opportunities which are set to present themselves to you all because of a matter of a fee as this reading will give you an external vision and good counsel with precise dates and times so that you know exactly when you should act during this favorable period and exactly which opportunities you should seize in order to make sure that your decisions are just the right ones. This astrological reading will not only allow you to prepare yourself for this period but will also allow you to know the frequency and precise occurrence of the important dates during this period when you must act and when you will be obliged to make certain important decisions and this reading will also detail exactly which opportunities you mat expect.
  
I really want you to take this opportunity and this is why very exceptionally I would like to offer you this reading for an especially reduced price of $40 instead of $58 this is lowest that I can offer. This is a very limited special offer to you Lee until , because I will not be able to maintain this offer any later than this and I will not be able to lower my fee any more as $40 only just covers the costs involved. This is why I can only offer you this lower fee until , and I have produced a special web page for you which will only be available until , but do not wait until the last possible minute because after , I will no longer be able to offer you this special tariff for your reading. You do still have time to request your reading but if you do not do so soon you risk to miss out on this exceptional opportunity. Do not lose any more time, go to the web page which I have produced for you and request your reading, I will then get straight to work. If this reading does not interest you I will not press matters further as I cannot offer any better than this and I will simply wish you the very best of luck and success will all of my heart.

Hello Lee,
  
Just a few days ago I offered to produce a reading for you and to send you a complete parcel for $40 instead of $58 and today we have come to the very last day that I will be able to maintain this exceptional special offer.

I do hope to hear from you Lee but if I don't then I will no longer contact you as I really do not want to bother you any more my friend. I wish you all the very best for your future.

Hello my dear Lee,
  
As we both know your important period is now very close. I understand that you have several personal reasons which have prevented you from requesting the reading which I have proposed to you but the fact remains that today you have none of the important elements which you will need in order to successfully seize this period of chance and I cannot leave you in this kind of situation. As I have already told you this period represents a great time of change in your life and is a valuable opportunity which will not be available again to you for quite some time to come.
  
So this is why I am going to give you today the exact dates of this period because this is a very real opportunity which you cannot let pass you by. Pay very great attention to these dates as they are very important for you. Here is the important moment Lee, this period is now very close and you will need to prepare yourself well and it will take place between the rising of two moons, between the  and . I am absoutely certain about these dates and so you must be particularly vigilant during this period and hold yourself ready to seize the opportunities which will be presented to you. I have given you the starting and ending date of this period and I must tell you that I am convinced that throughout these 56 days certain moments will be even stronger and more intense than others and I can even go so far as to say that certain days will even be more decisive than others (I can see 3 or 4 days of this kind occurring in the heart of these 56 days).
I would like to wish you the very best for this period and I hope that this period will bring you chance, fortune and happiness. Once again Lee this period will take place between the  and  and will last for a total of 56 days with certain days (3 or 4) being more decisive and important than others.
  
I hope that this information will be useful to you Lee and I also hope that you will use it well. I want you to know that I will always be on hand to help you if you need me to. I cannot tell you any more than what I have told you today quite simply as a matter of time as in order to produce the full reading which will help you prepare yourself for this period and to discover the days during this period which will be the most interesting and decisive for you I will have to spend many hours working on your configuration however I must tell you that it is still not too late to request this reading and that I remain at your disposition, I am still ready to do this reading for you if you would like me to and I remind you that I will still maintain the special offer which I have previously written to you about and I will produce this full reading for you at only $40 rather than my standard fee of $58.
  
You can contact me at any time by visiting my website at

This is typical of the hard sell methods used by some web companies to sell computer reports of little value. Many people would be taken in by the flashy web site and talk of 'professional' Astrology. Don't waste money on this.
