An itinerant Manhattan fortune teller with a shady history is accused of scamming a 43-year-old mother of two who cleans hotel rooms for a living out of $87,000.
Pamela Ufie, 28, was arrested near Bryant Park Thursday evening and charged with one count of grand larceny and two counts of fraudulent accosting, according to court documents.
The crystal ball swindler allegedly tricked her victim into handing over thousands of dollars in a scheme dating back to 2023, according to private investigator and former NYPD cop Bob Nygaard, who tipped off local police.
“This is the fourth time I’ve helped the cops with Pamela Ufie,” Nygaard told The Post Sunday. “She’s a self-proclaimed psychic who preys upon vulnerable people and steals from them.”
