@Srich32977: I wonder why you consider this article to be within the scope of WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography? Operating a device that does not work as claimed, is not, in and of itself, criminal. The article needs to show there was an element of fraud, deceit or misrepresentation that causes the gullible people involved in this scam some degree of loss, while the original promoter benefited in some way from the loss of others. Here, it seem like the promoters, themselves, have a mistaken belief that their device works, but others are not being deceived. Why is that criminal? - Cameron Dewe (talk) 10:51, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Cameron Dewe: – As this is a new article presented by one editor some reading between the lines is justified. The claims about the device were outrageous from the get-go. And 10 years have not changed this fact. Were the developers trying to sell the device? (Probably.) And were they misrepresenting what it could do? Tagging this article for WikiProject interest is correct because Project members may be prompted to dig a bit more. If they do and if fraud is established via RS then WP will be improved. – S.
