         <description><![CDATA[<div>The website below is Sylvia Browne’s son Chris Dufresnes cheap attempt of leveraging his mother's legacy as being a scam artist and a psychic grifter, to reach lofty new heights of being a scam artist and psychic novelist.  The website offers pre recorded sermons by Sylvia Browne before she died(a new one each day). It seems to me that she must have retired when she died, because if everyone is really psyhicic like the say they are then why cant we get new sermons from the afterlife?<br><br>The website heavily appeals to the red flag emotional connection via plastering Sylvia Brownes leathery 12 pack of cigarettes a day face all over, mainly to remind you thats she’s dead and also to remind you that her son somehow inherited the exact same powers, and is also using them to swindle lonely gullible people.<br><br>Website:</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The website below compares predictions that Sylvia Browne made. She only got a couple right Oklahoma bomber being two people, Arnold Schwarzenegger running for political office. The same Kind of predictions that you make with friends it seems to me. The article goes on to say that it turns out she got a lot wrong. Shouldn't speak ill of the dead (article says that too) but Sylvia Browne's predictions caused a lot of grief for families experiencing undue stress and hardship.She also got her death prediction wrong 77 actual instead of 88 predicted. <br><br>Red flags present in all of her failed predictions emotional connection and belief in a higher power. Sylvia Browne preyed on desperate families looking for information about their missing children, and gullible police departments that used their budgets on her instead of capable resources. <br><br>Website:</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The website below analyses Sylvia Browne's predictions to prove that she is fraudulent. There is also a quote from the first of her 4 ex husbands about how "Anybody who believes this stuff oughtta be taken.". Shedding some light into how Sylvia views her clients and the work she does for them.<br><br>Red flags present are as always emotional connection and Ideology. Most of Sylvia's failed predictions hurt parents looking for their lost children, parents that were so desperate for answers because of their emotional state.<br><br>Website:</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The video below shows more of Sylvia's blunders over the years including the one where she tells parents wanting to know the mechanism of their daughters death that she was shot.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This video highlights some of Sylvia Browne's correct predictions that have been correct. Specifically Madonna having a second child,  the Oklahoma bomber being two people and Arnold Schwarzenegger running for political office. <br><br>Sylvia Browne has made tons of predictions about pop culture and current news. Only a couple of these have to be right and in hindsight she looks like she actually has psychic powers. The red flag associated with this is proof by verbosity  <br><br>Video:</div>]]></description>
