Keen.com SCAM, FAKE, FRAUD, RIPOFF, GOOD WITH THE BAD Internet, California
Ok, so I'm one of the idiots that has been calling Keen for years. Smh, knowing its addictive, people tell you what you want to hear, blah, blah, blah....I will just speak on my experience.
So years ago I found keen and me and a relative of mine were going through relationship issues with our guys. We spent what money we had calling this service. The things I should have been warned of (like my ex filing false charges against me) were never mentioned. You would think someone would have given me a heads up. Or how about the guy that I had a crush on at work and folks told me that he would reach out to me....No one bothered to mention that HE WAS FREAKING GAY AND ON THE DOWN LOW!!!...ROTFL
I will admit, when I was done with my ex I called about my future love life and spoke to one "adviser" who told me the following, "I know you don't believe me, but you and your ex are going to get back together one more time and try to work things out. But that's not the person you're going to marry and end up being with. I see a fair skin man coming into the picture that is slightly younger than you by 1 to 2 years. I know you find that also hard to believe but he is real mature for his age. You haven't met him yet, but will down the line. This will be the man that you're going to marry." Now mind you I fell out laughing with this call and never called back and don't even remember who it was I spoke to. d**n I WISH I KNEW WHO IT WAS NOW!!! That was over 4 years ago that I spoke to that person and she was dead on. Me and my ex did get back together, and I swore up and down I was done with him, but we broke up after about a year of trying and I did meet a younger guy, to her description, and later married him. NO ONE COULD HAVE GUESSED THAT FOR FOUR YEARS OUT. The only reason I remember the call was because I was shocked by what had happened and remembered the fine details.
I had a court case with my job and some advisers told me that I was going to become successful in my settlement but it would be a lot less than I had hoped and I would receive the settlement offer in August 2010. Knowing this I continued on with my case knowing that there was going to be a positive outcome. They were dead on, HOWEVER they were so dead on with the settlement offer was so small that I didn't even accept it. LOL. So the case is still in limbo. However, the settlement offer did come in August as 3 to 4 advisers predicted and the predictions were 8 to 12 months ahead of time. HOWEVER the court case could have been an educated guess considering how long the court system takes. I've been to the court house enough times now to understand how long things take. LOL
Then there were some that were telling me that I was going to get another position before they could fire me which did happen and I didn't expect because I wasn't looking like that. But at the very same time this is also some advise my grandmother could have given me.
I have to laugh because regardless of what these folks say, we'll keep calling, wasting money, because we want to hear we're right and everyone else is wrong. We'll win and be successful and they'll be miserable without us. Everyone wants to be victorious in the end. So we pay people to feed out pipe dreams.
Somethings are so hit or miss and fine details that no one else could know make calling more and more addictive. I tell you one thing though, I'm taking up a sport to better deal with this madness and hopefully I'll stop. Just like I need to quit smoking.

Cold reading

What you are describing is a technique called cold reading. Magicians do it but they don't claim it's anything but a trick.
ALL so called psychics use variations on this and a few other cheap tricks to try to convince they know things they don't know.
Please don't be fooled, and above all please do NOT send them any money.
They are the lowest of the low.

So my ex and I had broken up, and of course I was desperate to know why, because she wasn't giving me any real answers as to why, she just ended it...so of course with the stress of work and buying into a new home which we were supposed to share together(not so much anymore lmao) and then the emotional stress I turned to keen as my little secret..I would get off work load my account and call...Being the fact that I'm a strong person of course my logic and reason kicked in first about the ex, and decided I didn't want her a*s back anyway but I was on a new mission, I wanted to know when the REAL LOVE OF MY LIFE was due to come...So I turned to KEEN, and Everytime I would call I would ask the same question am I gonna to meet my life partner a.k.a soul mate etc etc..I got told yes, you will meet her in February, then you will meet her in march, then you will meet her in June, then in July, then in august, then in september, then October, I got told I wouldn't meet her until I am 37 thus we speak I am 30, then I got told I will meet her in a crowded place, so I'm thinking my job maybe since I do work in a pretty crowded place, then I was told I could meet her anywhereand then I was told I would meet her at church, then on online, month after month passes and nothing, they all SENSE I have these underlying feelings for my ex still and the only feelings I absolutely have for her is to be blessed and I pray she lives a good life..that's all I feel nothing else towards her it happens, I spoke with a few who gave names with the month, in may I was supposed to meet Andrea, and she was to be the one for me, but this ex is going to come back and try to ruin it, I was to meet someone anywhere with 8, she told me could be 8 hours, 8 minutes,8 weeks, 8 months. Prior to that I was told 4 which is again 4 minutes, 4 hours, 4 weeks, 4 months, but they were uncertain..I never speak to the same people on keen just to see if there are different answers, I was told the ex would be back to try to ruin it a few good times, I was told she still has feelings for me we talked about a personal issue she confided she was never in love with me, thank goodness I didn't care cause I didn't want her back. I even had a keen rep flirt with me..bottom line is call me stupid for believing in this, call me crazy for thinking that this site was real, but if ur gonna call me what I am call them what they are as well LIARS..its definitely one thing to say I don't know, but to feed someone false hope time after time is crazy, I had the free will to spend my money the way I choose, this is definitely my fault u live and u learn, even psychics that I got readings from in person are bogus..one told me my soulmate wouldn't be coming for two years..and another said September this year..bottom line is no one knows the future but GOD, The advisors on keen need u to ask a question so they can get the answer, that's why they ask u to answer the phone question ready..so If I answer and I say my girlfriend left me, they ask well what happened in so many words, u basically feed them proper answer, if u say I wanna know what's going with my life their response is, like what financially, relationship etc. Once u answer that what they go from there...my advice is don't beat ur self up for using the service take responsibility for it, and don't use it again, u can't blame the advisors on keen, for something u have done, yes it takes a Toll on ur emotional well being cause u want so bad for them to be right, but here's the kicker, how can u see tomorrow if it hasn't come yet?? That's why the present is gift, because tomorrow is not gaureenteed...not for any of us, so how can they see tomorrow if it hasn't come, how can they possibly tell me ms.right is right there, when I may not wake up tomorrow lord forbid, they say the future is unknown, and looking into it is impossible,

All this sorry tale does, is prove absolutely, that if someone predicts enough things, enough times to enough people, some will appear to come true.
Not only that but you gave the person over 4 years for something in your life to sort of match up if you try hard enough.
I believe there is help for anyone who is addicted to anything. Please seek help before you get scammed even more, if that's possible.
Self proclaimed psychics are the scum of the earth. There is absolutely no such thing as a psychic or any of the other paranormal claptrap.
They all belong in jail and hopefully some day they will be. There really isn't anyone much lower.
Please get help.
