Lucky gambling genie
• Psychics & Other Frauds
Ms Rose said there had been many complaints about the Lucky Gambling Genie. "This worthless piece of junk is being flogged by a Milka Petrovna, who calls herself 'the wizard of gambling' and appears to be based in France."
Petrovna claimed she would create and animate a genie in a "magic ceremony" for anyone prepared to pay the "symbolic donation" of $67 to "win big in games of chance" for three months or $83 for one year.
Another scammer, Singapore-based Man of Power, targeted people who had bad experiences and promised to "remove the evil eye ruining your life". For a price.
"For $69.50, you're told you will receive a powerful protective golden talisman, a special prayer, a special power number to play the lottery with and a confidential mystery report," Ms Rose said.
