Got scammed by a paid astrology reading group on Telegram

I joined this Telegram group back in March that promised personalized astrology readings for $50 a month. The admin kept posting these vague predictions about my life that could apply to anyone. After three months I realized I paid $150 total for nothing but generic horoscopes they copy pasted from free websites. I asked for a refund and they blocked me immediately. It was a total waste of money and I feel dumb for falling for it. Has anyone else dealt with these paid prediction groups that sound too good to be true?

Overheard a guy at the coffee shop say chemtrails are real because his buddy works at an airport

I didn't even know what to say to that. I mean, I've seen the whole debate online but hearing someone say it like it's a fact in real life made me wonder how many people actually believe this stuff. Has anyone else had a weird run-in with someone who just states a conspiracy like it's common knowledge?
