The County requires the Fortuneteller Bond to help protect the public from fraudulent fortunetellers, and in turn, protect the integrity of the mystic arts. Other pursuits of this nature are included in the permit and bonding requirements, such as:
The bond specifically protects the public against a fortuneteller, clairvoyant, or person conducting business of a similar nature failing to fulfill the promises or commitments made to their customers with willful or malicious intent.
If you, as the holder of the Fortuneteller Bond, receive a bond claim, notify Jet right away. We will verify whether the claim has value. If it prevails, Jet will be obligated to pay up to the $2,500 limit of the bond to compensate the customer (or customers) for damages.

The Fortuneteller Bond will run for as long as the permit given by the County is active.
