The "Magnetic Generator Plans" scam is a derivative of the original "Magniwork Perpetual Motion" scam. The principle behind the scam is the idea that magnets can be used as a perpetual motion system to generate electricity. We hope that the idea you can get energy for FREE, the outlandish claims of 25% to 50% and the recognizable marketing format used by these scam artists will have been an early alert. These plans are a nasty effort to part you from your hard earned cash.
by Chris at MapAWatt - "I have confirmed with my own eyes that Magniwork is a SCAM! One of the readers was kind enough to share the Magniwork plans with me and they are laughable. The whole “document” is 57 pages long and looks like something a kid in high school put together. The final “generator” is basically a magnet that is 2″ high sitting on a turntable that is 4″ high!"
One of the most disheartening aspects of all these scams is the amount of money the perpetrators seem to have for promoting and advertising them. As an open source publisher, dependent on contributions and advertising to pay our way, there is little more frustrating to me than the way Google is being abused to promote these scams. I understand that there is little they can actually do about it, for they are not the internet value police, and imagine how we would feel if they did make value judgments on our content.
The only answer is for us publishers to be vigilant so that we block any adverts from these scam domains. And for you our readers to value our content with your visits, comments and links. This way the advertising will not get through, and the "garbage" scam content postings will get hidden in the black hole of "never seen" internet search results.
