She was born in California... http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/southflorida/sfl-cleo0314.story?coll=sfla-home-headlines jw 03-15-2002, 05:25 PM I'm pretty sure most people knew this. After hearing that her card reading hotline or whatever was being investigated, I saw her on TV promoting her new dating service. This woman knows how to make money - legitimately or not. TimM 03-15-2002, 05:56 PM Hehe. There was a news story on her. Everyone knows it is a scam. I can't believe that millions of people actually called Miss Cleo, unless they were just calling for fun. I haven't heard of the dating service. She was born in California? It is funny that she is pretending to be Jamaican. So she is half Texan and half Californian. She is not Carribean at all! Thanks for sharing! bitserve 03-17-2002, 04:20 AM Alright, raise your hand if you believed that she was actually from Jamaica in the first place. agiledesigns 03-17-2002, 05:19 AM more interestingly, raise your hands if you call psychic hotlines. redjackryan 03-18-2002, 09:58 AM Hell i'm not even sure she's a woman, let alone carribean AH-Tina 03-18-2002, 10:24 AM Originally posted by jw This woman knows how to make money - legitimately or not.

MarcD 03-18-2002, 03:22 PM She is also under some trouble i believe not sure if she had charges filed against her or not i know she was arrested for something concerning her telephone scam JKLIVIN 03-20-2002, 02:59 PM I wonder if she will keep her accent in jail? JayC 03-20-2002, 03:43 PM Originally posted by MarcD i know she was arrested for something concerning her telephone scam Arrested? That's pretty unlikely. There are several lawsuits and pending government actions against the company. I haven't paid much attention to the outcome of any of that, but it's kind of thing that normally results in civil penalties -- and perhaps an order to stop the practice -- but not an arrest. Especially since "Miss Cleo" apparently is little more than a bit player in the operations of a large company, she's not really the one who should be arrested. Here's a very detailed story from a local Florida (where Miss Cleo lives) newspaper: http://www.newtimesbpb.com/issues/2002-01-03/feature.html/1/index.html |
