  • The JREF Forum itself knows of the FBI arrest and potential 12 years in Prison..... Ha ha ha ... it has been heavily edited...Ha ha ha

  • @professorhoodoo I'm still not seeing any evidence. Will any ever appear or are you just going to keep wasting your time posting ridiculous unsubstantiated assertions? You know, like a pussy who won't put up or shut up. You know, like someone like that.

  • @tvsinesperanto READ THE SUN SENTINEL...OR CAN YOU READ!!!!!????? LOL THE FBI ARRESTED THE CO-FOUNDER OF THE JREF AND HE FACES 12 YEARS IN PRISON FOR FRAUD....HE'S AN ILLEGAL ALIEN AND DIRECTOR OF THE JREF FOR 11 YEARS.

  • LOOKS LIKE HE'S AS guilty as they get ... the jref director is a fraud!!!! LOL .. so are the rest!!!

  • THE JREF MDC IS A TOTAL SCAM! They have bilked $10,000,000.00 out of slow minded skeptics... Just amazing ..Flim Flammed by the Flim Flammer himself ... just sick!!!! Banachek and Grothe are part of the come on swindle.

  • Randi put up a million to get his house guest out of jail!

  • THE CO-FOUNDER AND 11 YEAR DIRECTOR OF THE JREF HAS BEEN ARRESTED BY THE FBI FOR FRAUD AND YOU THINK "SHE" IS LYING? WAKE UP!!!!

  • @professorhoodoo WOW... as far as I know your news ar a bit distorted o UNtrue, or may i say you are lying, somebody else was arrested for fraud but it had nothing to do with the JREF, he simply participated on a SCAM in Australia a few decades ago...

  • @papaesceptico Jose Alvarez is listed as the Co-Founder of the JREF and it's director for over 11years!!!!!! It was a SCAM from the very beginning!!!! They bilked 10 million dollars from the skeptics ... poor guys.

  • @professorhoodoo What exactly was a scam? The Carlos thing? They made no money from that at all. It was merely a demonstration of the gullibility of the public. The JREF expose scams, they don't conduct them, at least not for profit (the Carlos thing was done to make a point).

    Unless you are talking about something else entirely, I think you have been sorely misinformed.

  • @tvsinesperanto The FBI arrested the co-founder of the JREF for FRAUD!!! Are you blind? he is under arrest for REAL FRAUD and he lives with randi who has been helping him cover this up for years!!!!! randi may have set it up. The MDC has taken in 10 million dollars of YOUR MONEY... LOL

  • @professorhoodoo Yes, I understand that Alverez has been arrested (not convicted mind you) of identity fraud. That much is known.

    However, almost everything else you say is either wild speculation or just complete BS.

    "randi...helping him cover this up"

    You can prove that can you? Evidence?

    "randi may have set it up."

    Yes, & bigfoot may live on the moon but unless there's some evidence of it, it seems silly to announce it as a possibility. Again, evidence?

    CONT...

  • "taken in 10 million dollars of YOUR MONEY"

    Firstly, it's not MY money.

    Second, I'm interested to know how exactly you managed to draw a line between a single JREF employee being ALLEGEDLY responsible for ID fraud & the MDC being a scam. Once again, evidence please?

    Until reading your post, I'd have found it hard to believe that anyone could make so many unfounded assumptions in a single 500 character post. You are truly a gifted individual.

  • @tvsinesperanto HA HA HA ...Alvarez is GUILTY!!!!! His own lawyer SAYS SO.. You are just playing STUPID right ... you are really that stupid? .. no one is LOL... Alvarez was the DIRECTOR OF THE JREF FOR 11 YEARS!!!!!!!!!! HE WAS CO-FOUNDER OF THE BIGGEST SCAM IN SKEPTIC HISTORY!!!!! ROTFLMAO...... HA HA HA

  • @professorhoodoo Yeah, yeah. Words are cheap buddy. All you seem to be able to do is spout unsupported assertions. Still waiting for some evidence of your claims. They are conspicuous by their absence.

  • @tvsinesperanto IF RANDI WANTED TO EXPOSE A FRAUD ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS HOG THE COVERS ... LOL ... SCAM ALERT!

  • FYI, the MDC is not about exposing frauds. It's an attempt to show the world that, no matter how many people claim to have supernatural powers, when tested under proper conditions (i.e. they can't cheat) & the results are carefully recorded, no one does better than chance.

    It's also, to a lesser extent, a search for anyone who may genuinely have supernatural powers. Of course no one at JREF believes that's possible but they aren't so arrogant that they can't imagine themselves being wrong.

  • @papaesceptico You LIE!!!!!! He was the director for 11 years .... liar liar pants on fire!

  • @professorhoodoo Wow, you are even less well informed than the usual gullible fools that troll the bowels of the interwebz.

    Jose Alverez (aka "Carlos") was merely an actor hired by James Randi to play the part of a so-called "channeller" in the Australian media.

    This was done to make a point (i.e. that the public could be fooled by any reasonably skilled actor even if what he said made little sense & he cited non-existent places, organisations, & publications).

    CONT...

  • He was connected to the JREF for a time but it's ludicrous to blame an entire organisation for the actions of one of it's members (even assuming he is guilty which is as yet unclear). Would you assume the entire government is high just because one of it's employees smoked dope? Actually, don't answer that, you're the type that might.

    I have one very important question for you:

    How does this make any difference whatsoever to the fact that she failed this test miserably?

  • @tvsinesperanto He was the JREF director for 11YEARS... YOU ARE STUPID!

  • @professorhoodoo As I said...

    "He was connected to the JREF for a time"

    I don't deny his links to JREF, it is what it is. However if you are going to claim that the entire JREF is dishonest just because ONE GUY at the JREF has ALLEGEDLY committed ID fraud, without ANY other evidence whatsoever, you've got to be dumber than a box of hammers.

  • @tvsinesperanto DIRECTOR OF THE JREF FOR 11 YEARS .... "A TIME' HA HA HA YOU ARE A FOOL!

  • @professorhoodoo Still waiting for some evidence...Instead all I'm getting is copy pasta.

    Hmmm, I wonder why you haven't provided any evidence? Couldn't be because you're full of shit could it? Nah, surely not.

  • that bitch would have a better future in milf pornography...u all know yall were thinking she has a nice ass...thumbs up if u agree :p

  • I would probably bone her, but she already knew that.

  • Hahaha : ) James Randy people are funny as hell man !

  • Haha, what a moron that lady is! Like all other superstitious people..

  • Oh what a surprise! She works with JREF to agree on the test protocols, JREF agree to do whatever she feels she needs for her powers to work (& does it), she has every opportunity to protest or lodge an objection if ANYTHING, before or during the test was not to her liking, but doesn't (in fact she seems more than happy with the setup) & agrees, in writing, to all of this.

    Then she fails, feels stupid (as she should) ,so makes up some BS about how she was cheated. What a piece of work!

    Fraud!

  • @tvsinesperanto She was cheated .. the JREF is a fraud!

  • @professorhoodoo And your evidence for that claim would be..... Where exactly?

  • Pero si falló no sólo en el as ....charlatana mitómana ¬¬u

    Connie...u´re a loser.

    5/5.Saludox.

  • psychics, most , are, clairvoyant. they know how to convince others, that "they have the power". but apparently, thats the only power they have. clergy and doctrine has the power to convince ordinary ppl that there's a god and an afterlife. but convincing someone doesnt prove that this is true. it simply proves ppl are gullible and are easily convinced of anything they want to believe

  • i understand how dowsers think they pick up vibes from whatever they are looking for. gold, water or whatever. what i dont get is how they would get different vibes from playing cards. does a 3 of spades have a different feel to a king of diamonds? i would think all the cards are identical.

  • @firekind1980 Looks like the JREF director is a FRAUD!!!!!! Arrested by the FBI!!!!!

  • How can a psychic be cheated? If the tester pulled a sleight of hand, use your psychic powers to catch him in the act. Simple.

  • Like she didn't know she was gonna fail. She was just hoping for pure dumb luck.

  • So where is this revealing website,that connie promised us on the 1st sept???

  • uber pwnage.

  • connie is a real psychic! she only failed because i canceled out her psychic powers with my own psychic powers during that test.. i did this while i was eating chicken wings in my living room.. i was also wearing a green fuzzy hat, thats how i was able to amplify my powers...

  • I have to tell - you made me laugh! "while eating chicken wings" - brilliant!

  • @Carsonv1 THE 11 YEAR DIRECTOR AND CO-FOUNDER OF THE JREF HAS BEEN ARRESTED BY THE FBI FOR FRAUD AND FACES 12 YEARS IN PRISON.

  • Nut jobs. Why give them the time of day?

  • another delusional human being that thinks it has powers.

    there is no intelligence on planet earth. just schizophrenia

  • I thought I had powers too. When I was deluded by my mother and in the 8th grade. Now neither of us believe it, thankfully, lol. I'm an atheist now, I'm working on getting her there too. I'm sure she'd be fine with it if she understood it.

  • fyi, you replied to someone also named alex, also plays piano and follows the same musicians as you.

    now the chances are probably slim but its still worth pondering if you have some kind of subconscious powers.

    or i attract the same kind of people to comment.

  • @blee3ee Well.. there is --some-- intelligence, e.g. of James Randi and such, just there is too much schizophrenia and delusional beliefs

  • @Rissalita THE JREF CO-FOUNDER IS A FRAUD!

  • The video someone made of this would naturally have to be annoyingly jumpy. Only saw the end because I'm a slow typist.

  • Thats what all of them say, she fail cos she has no powers.

  • They all fail cos they have no unnatural powers, and they are making a fool out them selfs by taking the test.

  • You should have shown the part where he poicks out the Ace and proclaims it, then show that he could have seen the card before pulling it out.

  • You could only believe something like this if you were lying to yourself. It is possible she has not been trained in understanding the differences from "real" and "not real", but thats not my fault, and shes a liar.

  • That guy is changing the cards, he is cheating.he is obviously evil wizard from the black forest. Just look at his aura its dark,

  • Stop your childish words man.

  • I knew you were going to say that

  • you knew? what are you psychic? lol go for the 1 mil then, anyways she was not cheated and she has no powers.

  • Jack of diamonds, she is in a place with trees near water. If you want more help ring my helpline

  • I find it very disappointing that we in attendance treated her with the utmost respect, and then when she failed and proceeded with grace through the remaining protocol we honoured her with an extended round of applause, that she should turn around and give such a disengenous response.

  • It is possible that she remembers incorrectly the events. The second envelope had an ace, the third one was supposed to be an ace (but was not). She could have scrambled what Banacheck actually said and remembered that he identified an ace before pulling the card out of the envelope.

    Still a sad attempt to shift the blame.

  • I wonder if Connie is referring to the post-test component, in which the remaining twenty-seven envelopes were opened, one-by-one, to demonstrate that all ten cards from each suit were indeed there, including the three she was supposed to have selected, and thus the deck wasn't stacked in any way.

    I certainly don't remember anything out of the ordinary, but we'll have to wait until the rest of the video is posted to review.

  • That part was also on the up and up.

    I was there, in the audience, paying a lot of attention. I'm not saying i'm flawless. But, if Connie is right, then she should have said somet

  • Jajajajaja seria mejor que utilise sus poderes magicos para otras cosas antes de enfrentarse a un esceptico.

  • I was at TAM7 and I saw this live. Connie even left her magic dousing rock. It was a plastic bauble with a piece of thread on it. We all played with it after the contest was over.

  • I was there too. Were you one of the ones using it to 'dowse' for my beer in the Del Mar Lounge?

    I remained unconvinced of its powers, while also remaining slightly tipsy.

  • I WAS dowsing for beer in the Del Mar Lounge! Small world...or large meeting?

    I'll give you a clue as to who I am. I was wearing a couple things around my neck. On alluded to my affinity to pie, and the other had the word Dawn on it.

  • Hmm, I don't recall those two particular pieces of neckware, though I suspect Surly Amy's handiwork.

    By the way, the inimitably insane David Mabus is haunting this video thread.

  • No surprise, Connie Sonne is now accusing the JREF and Banachek of cheating her.

  • La desesperacion por ganar dinero nos orilla a cometer idioteses como esta tipa.

    Mejor que use sus "poderes" para ganar la loteria.
