Psychic challenge Praagh- The James Randi Educational Foundation challenged Van Praagh, self proclaimed "psychic medium," to prove he is genuine. Actually The James Randi Educational Foundation (JREF) is  a non-profit organization that has announced a publicly offering $1 million to celebrity "psychic mediums" including James Van Praagh, Allison DuBois, Sylvia Browne, Carla Baron, John Edward, and others if they can prove their abilities in controlled experiments.
 "James Van Praagh and Allison DuBois have turned the huckster art of 'cold reading' into a multi-million-dollar industry, preying on families' deepest fears and regrets," said James Randi, founder of the JREF and a renowned magician and skeptic. Celebrity “psychic medium” James Van Praagh made the news again, on August 25, 2011. He declined a $1,000,000 offer made by the James Randi Educational Foundation, JREF, to prove he has psychic abilities. James Randi is a stage magician and ultimate skeptic. The Challenge made its debut in 1964 when Randi offered $1,000 of his own money to the first person who could prove the paranormal existed under controlled conditions. When he founded the JREF in 1996 to promote critical thought about claims of the paranormal, the ante was raised to $1,000,000.
