Oh, Miss Cleo. I fondly remember the commercials in which she acted out her part with the fake accent and references to zodiac signs. I was never affected by the company's scams, and she rather inspired me to start looking into tarot, leading to my purchase of a RWS deck in 8th grade. (I proceeded to give very poor - but free - readings to classmates as a science fair project that year, with classmates calling me "Mr. Cleo". I had close to no idea what the cards meant at that point.)
I feel sad that she died at a young age with the scams and scandals attached to her. It might be wishful thinking, but I feel like she was misrepresented to a degree by the company that acquired the rights to her character and title.
In any case, I find it interesting that I was only recently reading articles about Miss Cleo and viewing her "Tarot Power Cards" on eBay. I resisted the purchase then, but decided to buy a set of them today. They're probably not the most orthodox deck, but they'll be nice as memorabilia.
