Hoboken Woman Tells Police She's Being Harassed While Ridding Herself of a Curse

A 41-year-old Hoboken woman reported to police that she is being harassed by a palm reader in Detroit, who is demanding her money to help her undo a curse, according to police reports. 

Roughly four years ago, the woman was told that somebody had placed her under a curse and that she had to travel to Detroit to have it removed, according to police. 

And so she did. 

The woman gave a fortune teller there $2,000, police said. The woman returned home to Hoboken and was told she'd be feeling better soon. 

But she didn't.

When she called the fortune teller in Detroit back roughly two years later, she was told to send more money to alleviate the curse, according to police reports. 

For the next two years, the Hoboken woman sent more money, totaling about $2,000, police said. 

About three months ago, she stopped sending money.

It was then that the woman received threatening phone calls from Detroit. Her fortune teller kept calling, telling her he knew where she lived, police said. He also threatened to place another curse on her, if she didn't pay up, according to police.

The phone calls kept recurring every two or three weeks, the woman told police.

The last time she received a call was about two weeks ago. No arrests were made, according to the police report.
