I paid $45 for a so called 'reading' from this guy. The 'reading' I got was so vague and lacking in any substance, it was basically just nonsense. I e-mailed back saying just that and asking for my money back since I felt it was breach of contract. He had entered into a contract to provide 'insight' but had not. In fact what he provided was opinion. I explained that tarot readings could be got for free on the internet and references to the Bible I could get for free from any church, so why should he get $45 for that.
He obviously does not have much to do since he responded each day with a long e-mail with insults using the information I had provided for the reading to insult me!
When I said I would be contacting paypal he replied: "paypal side with the vendor and always have." So he and his cronies have that well worked out.
The reading he gave read something like this: you have the evil eye on you from an ex-boyfriends' ex-girlfriend." That is really specific isn't it? insightful? worth $45? I don't think so! Could that possibly be informative to anyone? these are the words of a self professed expert charging $45 for less than 10 minutes work.
Here are a two of his comments following my complaint:
( I found these interesting especially because one involved third parties, in an equally vague manner)
"your accusation of fraud is extremely rude (his stealing of my money isn't?! it is just criminal!)....you are now banned from seeking assistance (as if I would considering I was pretty annoyed at wasting my money once! ) from myself and those who count me as a colleague or friends" ( I wonder if they all know about this?)
" you simply are not someone suited to be helped by spiritual matters" ( I guess he thinks he is God here)
He is a member of something called AIRR whatever that involves. My guess is it is just something to make people believe this type of con-man is reputable but in fact serves no purpose whatsoever. Whatever it is if it permits people to be so insulting and intentionally destructive it can't represent much. I suspect that all the members of AIRR are who he is referring to as his friends and colleagues.
So there you are readers: if they belong to AIRR this is quality you can expect!
He claimed that conjure and hoodoo were Christian practices!
The e-mails of vitriol all came just after Christmas and on New Years day, what goodwill! from someone who practices a 'christian' practice of hoodoo /conjure.
This is my first internet solicited reading and my last. I guess I was naive enough to waste my money on his paypal account but savvy enough to know he was a fraud!
Of course his sistersite lucky mojo has all sorts of positive feedback about him but not one even slightly negative 'testimonial'. So where are they? no-one is perfect everyone gets complaints. My guess is the testimonials are done by his 'friends' who are evidently prepared to slate someone/anyone if he says so. Are these people adults?any of them?
If just one person avoids this con-artist or any of his sister-sites, like the luckymojo shop, I will have got my money back (metaphorically or dare I say it spiritually speaking!) and prevented someone else from losing theirs.
Fortunately for me it was just entertainment but for many people it isn't they actually believe the nonsense of it all. For someone like that I think the comments and insults he made could be extremely destructive. It is a shame he has the freedom to do this sort of thing.
Anyone interested in this occult/hoodoo/tarot reading stuff should bear in mind they advocate nasty remedies that only a fool would follow, including soil from graveyards often advocating it is taken from a soldiers grave! God forbid! That is the respect they have for people that have died for their freedom.
Don't waste your time or money on this nonsense. Not even for entertainment. And in that vein I have a spell for ali( the self professed conjure artist):
For this spell you will require a pitchfork, a bottle of water and a crucifix:
1. Dig a nice deep hole with the pitchfork
2. Leave the pitchfork on the ground (you won't be needing it where you are going, you'll be given another at your destination) leave the crucifix too, you won't be needing that either it's too late.
3. Climb inside the hole, with the bottle of water. Pull the dirt in over you (graveyard dirt is best! but don't forget to ask before you take it)
4. Stop breathing, this way you will purge the evil from yourself.
5. When you arrive in Hades you can use the water to bribe people there to do what you want!
Good luck. Here ends the spell instructions.

I couldn't disagree more. This person is just disgruntled. I've worked with ConjureMan Ali and he's been nothing but amazin for me.
I met him through AIRR when my wife left me and his reading pin-pointed everything to a "t" and he even mentioned things that no one else could know. I really didn't believe in this stuff until I met him.
I hired him to do work for me and I can say that my wife and i are happily back together for the past 5 months.
I guess not everyone's going to be happy but the previous report sounds like a crazy person to me talking about pitchforks and crucifixes.
I'd recommend Conjureman ali to all my friends and have.

I'm glad you and your wife and you are back together but I am absolutely positive that 'conjureman" lol - had nothing to do with it.
You are a sucker but the worst thing you did is subject friends to this fraud.

I read this post and it's the opposite of how I feel by the services I've received--you're way off! Conjureman Ali gave me a spot-on reading, and has been nothing but helpful and patient towards me. He's also a very respectful guy, so I'm sure if you had been civil and polite when emailing him, there would be no bad response. You need to understand that you received your service, and if you didn't get what you wanted--tough. That's not how this industry works. I got a reading from another practitioner that wasn't accurate by any means, and did I flame her or act rudely towards her? No. She worked hard on my reading. Mature, respectful people do not do what you're doing. You paid for a service and received it. It's done. If you didn't like it, send the person a review, but don't demand to get your money back. You can't get a refund because you don't like what you hear. That's like wanting your money back after you ate the whole pizza. Life simply doesn't work that way.

This person clearly didn't do his research before ordering a reading. Dr. Raven is well educated in the Hoodoo conjure tradition, and often gives spiritual advice from that tradition along with a reading. That's very generous considering the rate I've seen for spiritual instruction runs about $150/hour. You get a detailed reading, and advice (if needed) for $45 bucks.
I suggest you visit his 'cronies' site luckymojo(.com) and read about Hoodoo Conjure and Tradition before slandering someone. The owner of Lucky Mojo has THOUSANDS of pages worth of research and information up for free, for anyone to read, as well as a forum when she as well as, Dr. Raven gives out free advice just about every day.
Pretty darn generous for con artists, wouldn't you agree?
When you go to a medical doctor and he/she recommends over-the-counter medication and rest, do you demand your money back? No.
You are paying for well educated advice - which is what he gave you. The fact that you didn't understand it, or didn't like it - doesn't mean he didn't give you the service you paid for.
If you had bothered to take a few moments to research the methods and spiritual philosophy of the reader you chose, you wouldn't have had a bad experience. No one wants to deal with a person who is both caustic and willfully ignorant.
I am in no way affiliated with Dr. Raven or Luckymojo. I'm not a professional spiritual advisor. I only speak from my many years of good service from Luckymojo, and my personal experience having a reading performed by Dr. Raven.
