"Damn, I got psychic catfished! They contacted me saying my dead grandfather was spiritually stuck, and that he wasn't doing okay. And that they can help work to unblock his spirit if I paid more. And I paid more and got scammed.

Another example: "A psychic contacted me on Instagram saying that they could feel my spirit being confused and that I was stuck from being able to move onto to the next spiritual level like getting a new job or increasing my self-confidence. I paid money to have 15 minutes more of her work, and nothing happened. I got psychic catfished!"
