An advertisement on Billboard in Manchester read "Psychic Wanted" 

The viral picture was shared on Twitter by a user named Andrew Bloch. The sign, with a black background and a green triangle, was put up along the busy road on August 18.

Steve Baxter, from Mandoemedia.com, told Manchester Evening News, "Initially we thought it was a joke but the individual explained they were deeply serious and wanted to find a genuine psychic. They felt the best way to do that would be to put out a 'psychic wanted advert with no contact information because a good psychic would know exactly when, where, and how to contact them".

Sharing the post on Twitter, Andrew wrote, "Spotted in Manchester. Psychic wanted". The psychic wanted ad has puzzled the drivers and people on the internet. Moreover, Steve Baxter, from Mandoemedia.com also stated that the real psychic "would know exactly when, where, and how to contact them."
