SCAMMERS
SCAMMERS they only want money
They make you think they’re there to “cure” you!
If you don’t pay them they make you feel attacked! They make you think something evil is going on with you and they’ll make it all better
So sad because if you’re going through hard times and they tell you everything you think you want to here you’ll believe but then they’ll bring up money thousands and thousands of dollars
If you can’t or don’t pay them what they are asking for they start telling you bad things are going to you and your family
Please DO NOT fall for this they are EVIL!
BEWARE SCAMMERS EVIL EVIL EVIL!!!!!!!
They did the foil burning thing
They did the drink to make you vomit
Our consultation was $40 then they asked for more money
And more money
Then they make you feel so much pressure
Uncomfortable even guilty in a way
They attack and pressure when you are at your worse and tell you everything you think you want to here
When you’re desperate to find help you try to find someone to help and these people DO NOT help
they take advantage of you and all they want is money
BEWARE SCAMMERS!
Total money lost $3,000

This place is all over social media, and my aunt sent her a video. This place promises that they can cure and fix anything with their spiritual guidance. She scheduled a consultation with them. They immediately scared her so they could manipulate her. They first started with a fee of $3,000 to fix her son. They told my mom that my brother was being attacked by demons and that he would soon end up in a wheelchair and vegetative state if she didn't do the therapy. They promised to pray with my mom and brother to get rid of the demons and heal his condition.
She agreed and paid them the fee of $3,000, and a schedule of consolation was planned. In the first session, my mother and brother attended their Los Angeles office located at 2414 N Broadway, Los Angeles, CA 90031. They took both of them to a back room and began the "spiritual holistic treatment" to eliminate the demons. They made my brother and mom hold a piece of tin foil and started reciting prayers. After reciting prayers, the tin foil began to get warm. They used that as an example that the therapy works because the tin foil is getting hot. That means the demons are leaving the body. My brother recognized this was a scam and refused to return for a second session.
My mother, on the other hand, believed everything this place said. She started to get more desperate and pleaded with my brother to continue. She genuinely thought that his life was on the line. She was in a frantic state, and at this point, this place could manipulate her into doing and trying anything. After talking to this place over the phone and telling them that my brother was not returning, they didn't care; they told her they could cure him through her if she went in and continued the sessions herself.
In the second session, they made her drink something and recited prayers. The story she tells is that she started to vomit dark, mud-like water. My mother said that she saw worms in the vomit.
The person treating my mother again pointed out that this is a good sign and a sign of the demons leaving the body. At this point, my mother told everyone that this place was helping her and she needed to continue, or my brother would end up in a vegetative state. She told everyone that the therapy was genuine because of the tin foil trick and the tonic that made her vomit.
We all were immediately concerned for her and recognized that this place was manipulating my mom. They had her frantic, stressed, believing and doing things she would never do in a normal state of mind. She would not reason or listen to any of our concerns. She said she was going to continue to go and finish the therapy. She said that my brother's life depended on it.
We knew that she would continue to go, and we didn't want her to go alone the third time. My sister decided to go with her on the third session. My sister said they did not allow her to go to the back room where the therapy session would happen. They told her she could wait in the reception. My sister decided to go to her car instead of staying in the lobby. After a certain amount of time, my elder brother called my sister to see what was happening!
He just got a call from my mother asking him for 30K and thought maybe she had been kidnapped. My mother was in a frenzy trying to collect 30K and didn't have time to explain, and all she said was she needed the money now. My sister's goal was to get my mother out of this place. She tried to go back inside, and the door was locked. She was knocking, and the receptionist refused to open the door. Luckily a third person was leaving, so she could enter the place. It was an emergency! She told the receptionist that she needed to speak with her mom now! The receptionist tried to make an excuse and said that she really should not be interrupting the session. My sister remained firm and insisted that she needed to see her mom now.
My sister described my mother as someone who has been brainwashed. She asked my mom to go outside so they could talk. My mother did not want to leave. My sister had to plead with her. She finally agreed to speak outside because the session could not continue with my sister in the room. My mother left with my sister and told her that she would return to finish the session. This time she told my sister that she needed 30K, which she needs now.
This time, Caminos De La Vida told her that she would get cancer and her son would die because of the demons attacking them both. They convinced her that she needed to pay an additional 30K to cure and rid themselves of these demons attacking her and my brother. At his point, my mother was desperate and in tears! She really was in shock! as if she had just left a hospital and the doctor told her she had cancer with a week to live. In my mother's words, she had no options but to give them what they required, or else she was getting cancer, and my brother was going to die.
My sister was able to keep her outside until my elder brother arrived. After a while, my mother agreed to leave with them and not return to finish the session.
My eldest brother found a Telemundo report about this place and the scams they have done in the past. You can find the video and article by searching "Pago, Casi $10,000 pr Tratamientos Espirituales" or searching telemundo.com.
They did the same trick as they did to my mother to get them to believe that they were being attacked by demons to collect thousands of dollars from the victims.
Seeing this report from Telemundo, she started coming back and finally agreed to leave. However, she still believed the horrible predictions they told her to scare her.
I'm trying to warn others first so it won't happen to others. I don't know how a place like this can operate without being shut down. We need to do something because they continue to operate in Los Angeles and still get people to fall for the scam even after a tv report exposed them.
