This article explores the differences between fraud and fortune-telling, their social, psychological,and legal consequences, as well as issues of accountability. While fraud, as an illegal criminal activity,is carried out with the intention of obtaining material benefits or causing harm, fortune-telling is oftenrooted in spiritual and cultural traditions, aimed at providing psychological support to people.However, fortune-telling can sometimes transform into fraud, highlighting the fine line between thetwo practices. The article analyzes international experiences, including legislation on fraud andfortune-telling in the USA and Great Britain. Drawing on research by foreign scholars (DanielKahneman, Peter Berger, James Randi) and national experts (Gulnora Rakhimova, KhurshidAkhmedov, Abdulhakim Sharipov), the psychological, social, and legal aspects of fraud and fortunetelling are examined. In Uzbekistan, fraud is regulated by Article 168 of the Criminal Code, whilefortune-telling is not legally prohibited. However, its potential to evolve into fraud remains a pressingconcern. The article emphasizes the need to strengthen legislation, regulate fortune-telling activities,and enhance public awareness efforts in society. This study is intended for specialists in the fields oflegal, social, and psychological sciences, as well as for a broad audience interested in these issues.
