Suspicious caller tries luring Julia Wandelt, who claims she's Madeleine McCann, to Portugal crime scene
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: A mystery caller potentially linked to a sex trafficking ring has reportedly been trying to lure the Polish woman, who thinks she's Madeleine McCann, to Praia da Luz in Portugal. It's the same place where the British girl went missing in 2007.
Dr Fia Johansson, a self-professed psychic medium and private investigator who is helping the Polish national find her true identity, conducted a preliminary investigation and concluded that the female caller could be associated with the same ring that kidnapped Madeleine. She said that the ring might be trying to silence Julia Wandelt, also known as Julia Wendell/Faustyna, to prevent her from solving the infamous cold case.

In a tell-all interview with Radar Online, Johansson outlined the alleged kidnapping plot and explained that her team of investigators is trying to track down the suspicious caller. She said she has also reported the incident to California authorities, who are already probing several death threats against Wandelt.
'All you need is love'
“She wanted her to fly to Portugal and be with her and saying that you should not be telling Fia Johansson that ‘I did talk to you about it, you have a passport, I can buy you the ticket and you can come to me, all you need is love,’” said Johansson. The Psychic added, “And this woman said that she always wanted to have a child and that she could be my mother because I need love in (my) life, and this the only thing that I need love and caring – and she can give it.” The psychic medium told the outlet that it was the first time someone had tried to lure the 21-year-old woman to Praia da Luz, Portugal, where Madeleine mysteriously disappeared while vacationing with her parents Kate and Gerry McCann.
Wandelt made waves on social media when she claimed to be the three-year-old British toddler on a now-deactivated Instagram account, @iammadeleinemccan. The Polish national cited similarities including freckles on her leg and cheek as well as a coloboma in her right eye to claim she might be Madeleine. She also claimed that a man, who allegedly molested her when she was younger bore a striking resemblance to the composite sketch of the suspect wanted in the McCann case. Johansson whisked Wandelt from her hometown of Wroclaw, Poland, to a Los Angeles house following a slew of death threats that reportedly began when she couldn't secure a paternity test from her family and confronted her alleged abuser.

Suspicious caller
Johansson said she dispatched a team of investigators to Portugal because the mysterious caller continued to try and coerce Wandelt to leave the LA safe house. Furthermore, the caller apparently also promised to make the 21-year-old rich and famous through her "connections" in Portugal and Brazil. At some point, a man claiming to be a police detective in Portugal called Johansson via WhatsApp assuring her that the female caller was legitimately going to look after Wandelt.
“To me, either this woman is related to a pedophile ring or was involved in Madeleine McCann's kidnapping in 2007 because she’s so mad that she couldn’t get Julia out of the safe house,” Johansson said of the mystery caller. “She was telling Julia that I was a toxic person and that ‘here in Portugal everybody loves you, everybody wants you and we are sure you are Madeleine McCann, and I am going to take care of you,'" she added.
