| The US company '''Magniwork Inc.''' is selling plans of a non-functioning "magnetic generator" since early 2009 which allegedly creates energy to power the entire house out of nowhere. Further energy sources like oil, wind or sunlight are not required. They claim that a conspiracy of the big energy companies keeps the general public from knowing about this technology. The plans of the alleged generator are distributed by a large number of websites and advertised using Google Adwords. Magniwork also offers commissions for resellers. | | The US company '''Magniwork Inc.''' is selling plans of a non-functioning "magnetic generator" since early 2009 which allegedly creates energy to power the entire house out of nowhere.
