Fortunetelling fraud (aka Psychic Fraud) is a prevalent problem in the world.
It is a certain species of fraud whereby self-proclaimed psychics emotionally
abuse and financially exploit vulnerable people who are experiencing problems
in their lives, bilking them out of billions of dollars each year under the
guise of providing assistance.
Private investigator Bob Nygaard will explain how he builds a criminal case
against self-proclaimed psychics who commit fortunetelling fraud, in order to
cause these con artists to be arrested, charged, and successfully prosecuted.
Additionally, he will enumerate the impediments that often exist when trying to
bring self-proclaimed psychics to justice and the strategies that he employs in
his efforts to protect society and make victims whole.
Bob Nygaard is a retired NYC cop (NYC Transit Police District-3 ) (Nassau
County NY Police ), turned-private investigator, turned actor, who specializes
in the identification, apprehension, and prosecution of non-traditional
organized crime suspects. Nygaard specializes in debunking and causing
con-artists, most notably self-proclaimed psychics, to be arrested and he has

Brief with Paul Viollis podcast, Nancy Grace, German TV show Achtung Abzocke,
