Fortune Teller Eats Indian Man's Gold Ring

A faux fortune teller in India made off with a man's gold ring by way of a simple yet effective scheme wherein he ate the expensive piece. According to a local media report, the curious caper occurred earlier this month outside of a temple in the city of Pune. Recounting the incident to police, the victim explained that he was approached by the self-proclaimed mystic who promised to predict his future and provide insights into any problems in his life. As the pair chatted, the savvy 'psychic' separated the man from his gold ring by asking to see the band, which is when things went wildly awry.
