An astrologer from Saloníka in Greece has pocketed $204,000 from a woman who believed that the star-gazer could bring back her ex-lover.

After nine-months of waiting, the astrologer's client gave up and reported her soothsayer to the police. The astrologer was charged with fraud. Surprising she didn't see that coming really.

It really wasn't the criminal who was dumb in this case, was it? Morally bankrupt perhaps but not dumb.
