Since I had just lost my Mother this year I was interested in speaking with a legitimate medium. I spoke with one a few months ago that was the real thing and was 100% right on. I was driving home one Saturday night and happened onto Linda Salvins radio show. The candles bit seemed abit hokey to me but since I was sitting in heavy traffic I thought what the heck I will call into the show to see if she picks up on anything.
After a 20 minute wait I got through and as I started to talk to her my cell phone cut out. I was very upset and called right back but the screaner told me I should call her 888 number on Monday and she would do my reading then. I did call on Monday and she returned my call on Tuesday.
I have to tell you this was a real eye opener for me. I apolagized for my phone dropping. She very rudely asked if I wanted to make an app. with her and that how much I ambarrassed her for my phone dropping (she yelled this at me). I hesitated and asked what her fees were. She said $450 for a half hour but for me she would bring it down to $400. I hesitated and she yelled that Sylvia Brown charges $750 a half hour. I said let me think about it I would get back to her. I guess since she was unable to nail me down for a $800 hour appointment.
She decided to call my answering machine right back and acuse me of questioning her ethics, how dare I and I was never welcomed to call her radio show or her again which was fine with me. She also added some choice words and threats which were completly undeserved, shocked and floored me.
This was a good wake up call for me that some people are manipulating and using people because of their loss and grief of their loved ones. I find it discusting that KABC radio allow her to operate on there station. I can only imagine how much money she has scamed out of grieving people.
If you want to be ripped off and treated terribly call this woman.

I was once sucked into the candle scam and when it didn't work, I talked to Linda's assistant and told her I would like a refund and of course that didn't happen. They gave me some discounts or something, but then I discovered that you can buy these same candles from a place called The Magical Blend. I talked to LS about an appointment (they sent me some discount card or something) and upon hearing the price I said "it's too expensive" and she got all huffy and acted like I was depriving her of making a living. I thought what a wench, here she is charging an arm and a leg and then whining because I can't afford it and on top of it telling me that sometimes the candles don't work the first time it may take another set and blah blah blah. I told her I found a much cheaper place and she claimed they were not the same because she mixes her solutions personally and I just thought "so what" I'll take my chances with the cheaper models or nothing at all. I was really angry at her attitude and greedy manner though.
I think she has ethical problems. I don't know if she is a good psychic...maybe she is, but her personal relations with people is not good. Nobody likes to be jerked around just to line someone else's pockets when they can get the same products at 1/5 the price somewhere else.
Anyway, take care. If someone is genuine and wants to help you they don't charge exorbitant fees and act rude and greedy and angry.

I CAN THINK OF A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO SHOULD NOT BE ON A RADIO SHOW AND THIS WOMAN IS OBVIOUSLY NOT SYLVIA BROWN WHO JUST HAS ONE HELL OF A PR AND MARKETING TEAM!
FROM YOUR DESCRIPTION, THIS WOMAN ACTS LIKE AN OLD SCHOOL "RAGHEAD" GYPSY AND MY ROMA FRIENDS WARNED ME ABOUT THEM AND CONSIDER THEM GREAT ENTERTAINMENT. SO DO I. MY FRIENDS ARE WELL EDUCATED, WORK REAL JOBS FOR A LIVING AND ARE EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL LEGALLY! I EVEN KNOW ROMAS IN FLORIDA WHO ARE LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS WHO BUST OLD SCHOOLERS.SOME ARE MUSICIANS -- THE BEST VIOLINISTS ON THE PLANET --ENTERTAINERS, DANCERS... ALMOST ANYTHING THEY DO, THEY DO WELL.
I WONDER IF SHE WAS ON DRUGS AT THE TIME AND WHICH FAMILY SHE BELONGS TO AND WHAT IS HER PROBLEM?
IF SHE CANNOT CONTROL HER OWN EMOTIONS, HOW CAN SHE CONTROL THE ENTITIES SHE ALLEGEDLY CHANNELS FOR NECROMANCY? SHE CAN'T BECAUSE SHE CAN'T --BECAUSE SHE IS A FRAUD!
AND ANYTHING SHE SUMMONS, IF SHE CAN EVEN SUMMON ANYTHING EXCEPT CHEAP, TAWDRY THEATRICS WOULD PROBABLY BE EVIL.
THESE ARE NOT THE KIND OF PEOPLE YOU WANT TO ADVISE YOU!
OLD SCHOOLERS ARE THE ONES WHO OFFER THE $1O - $20 READINGS OR INDIAN READINGS AND THEY HAVE A PICTURE OF SOME SORT OF INDIAN ON THE DOOR. WELL IT IS NOT NATIVE AMERICAN -- THESE GYPSIES ORIGINALLY COME FROM NORTHERN INDIA --THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE ROMA AND THE GYPSIES IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HONORABLE HARD WORKING PEOPLE AND CHEAP, LOUD, UNEDUCATED, RUDE, CON ARTISTS AND IT UPSETS ME TO SEE THEM ALL CATEGORIZED THE SAME. I DEEPLY ADMIRE THE ROMA BUT DO NOT LIKE THE OLD SCHOOL GYPSIES AT ALL.
ALSO, BEWARE OF EGYPTIAN MAGIC AND SPELL CASTINGS AND ALL OF THAT BECAUSE IF IT HAS EGYPTIAN IN FRONT OF IT, WELL IT DOESN'T TAKE A ROCKET SCIENTIST TO SEE THAT GYPSY - EGYPTIAN, GET IT?
THERE IS ONE TYPE OF SPELL AND READINGS THAT GYPSIES ONLY USE WITH EACH OTHER AND THAT WORKS. THE OTHER KIND IS THE KIND THAT ORDINARY, NON-GYPSIES LIKE YOU AND I WOULD GET THAT DOESN'T WORK AND IT IS ONLY FOR SCAMMING MONEY. I ONLY THOUGHT MY HOMEBOYS COULD SCAM BUT I LEARNED SO MUCH FROM THESE PEOPLE IT IS UNBELIEVABLE.
AND NO MATTER WHAT THEY CLAIM THERE IS NO MONEY BACK GUARANTEE AND THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL A NON-GYPSY WILL GET THE GYPSY READING.
ALSO, THEY LIKE TO SIT SO YOU ARE FACING THEM AND THEY WILL WATCH YOUR EYES AND IF THE PUPILS DILATE WHICH IS A SUBCONSCIOUS REACTION TO POSITIVE AND FAVORABLE TOPICS OF CONVERSATION THAT YOU PROBABLY DIDN'T KNO YOU HAD UNTIL NOW.. THAT'S A GOOD REASON FOR USING A CRYSTAL BALL AND HAVING REFLECTIVE SURFACES SO THEY CAN JUDGE YOUR REACTIONS WITHOUT YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND ADJUST THEIR PREDICTIONS ACCORDINGLY....
TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH, THERE MAY BE SOME REAL PSYCHICS LIKE EDGAR CAYCE BUT FOR THE MOST PART, THE VAST MAJORITY OF THEM ARE SCAMMERS AND FAKES AND JUST OUT FOR YOUR MONEY AND ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING ELSE THEY CAN GET FROM YOU.
THERE IS A PART OF ALL HUMAN BEINGS THAT WANTS THE ANSWER TO WHY WE ARE HERE AND WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO HERE...AND SO FAR NO ONE HAS DEFINITIVELY ANSWERED THOSE TWO QUESTIONS YET AND UNTIL SOMEONE DOES I THINK THE POSSIBILITIES FOR FRAUDS OF A SUPERNATURAL AND OCCULT NATURE WILL CONTINUE.
THESE FRAUD FOLKS DON'T BOTHER TO ASK THE DEEP METAPHYSICAL QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE SUPERNATURAL-- THEY JUST WANT TO SCAM YOUR MONEY SO THEY CAN BUY FINE THINGS FOR THEMSELVES AND THE HELL WITH YOU. THAT IS HOW THEY SEE IT.
DON'T USE PSYCHIC HOTLINES --THEY AREN'T AND ANYTHING ONLINE OF THE SAME ILK BECAUSE IT IS ALL FAKE.UNREAL.SCAM. YOU WILL SPEND YOUR MONEY FOR NOTHING.
YOU MIGHT WANT TO TRY TO GO SOMEPLACE WHERE YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONE HAD MANY HAPPY MEMORIES TOGETHER WHEN IT IS QUIET AND SEE IF YOU CAN FEEL THEIR PRESENCE. YOU DON'T NEED A MEDIUM.
