mindreader
Knows your thoughts
A mindreader is someone who claims or appears to know what others are thinking.
Stage magicians and mentalists perform as mindreaders, using tricks to simulate telepathy.
More commonly, the word appears in denials: I'm not a mindreader—you have to tell me what you want.
