How can I tell if a tarot reader’s reviews or card photos are fake?

I’m trying to assess a tarot reader before booking, but some reviews and card-spread photos can be generated or edited. What clues are useful, and what should I avoid treating as proof?

Odd card details, strange shadows, garbled lettering, or repeated images can be reasons to look closer, but none of those proves a picture is AI-made. Real photos can be messy too, and polished ones can be genuine.

I’d also check whether the reader explains what the service includes, avoids promises about guaranteed outcomes, and answers basic questions without pressuring you to pay quickly. Don’t rely on a convincing screenshot as your only reason to trust someone.

That distinction helps. I’ll treat visual quirks as a prompt to check further, not a verdict.

AI image detectors are not dependable proof on their own. They can flag real images or miss generated ones, and image quality or editing can make the result harder to interpret. If you use one, treat it as a weak clue rather than a yes-or-no answer.

Look for patterns across several examples instead. Repeated card layouts, identical wording in supposedly different reviews, or inconsistent fonts may raise questions, though they still don’t establish who made the material.

Would you ask for a fresh photo of the spread?

Keep the decision simple: if the examples feel suspicious or the reader won’t clearly explain the price, format, and boundaries of the reading, you can pass. You don’t need to prove the images are fake before deciding you’re not comfortable booking.
