NAPERVILLE, Ill., June 23 (UPI) -- The Internal Revenue Service has filed tax evasion charges against a suburban Chicago psychic jailed in connection with an alleged Tarot card scam.

Tracy M. Tan, 37, of Naperville, Ill., is accused of making her clients think they were cursed in order to bilk them out of thousand of dollars in cash and jewelry, the Naperville Sun reported Monday.

Tan's husband, Eric, was charged with one count of possession of a fraudulent ID. He posted bond in March but his wife remains in the DuPage County Jail in lieu of $100,000 bail.

Tan's arraignment on felony charges filed by the IRS is scheduled for Tuesday.
