1st December 2011 - The prices of commodities and services are increasing in leaps and bounds today. The costs of amenities have almost doubled today, if you were to compare it with the prices five years back.
Bills, groceries, fuel charges, rents etc are now becoming unaffordable at times. In such conditions, if people were to provide you with ways on how to reduce your electricity bills, you would definitely be inclined towards that plan and this gave rise to the Home Made Energy Scam that we see today.
When people were told that they could save a lot of money on their electricity bills if they were to use these products, they readily agreed. Without conducting much research about the company or the products, folks ordered these machines and devices, which they believed, would be the best step ever taken by them.
Only once the delivery came they realized that they had been fooled.
The fraudsters work in a very much corporate manner. The online sites that they set up are up to the mark and have a world class quality and standard. Anyone who is to visit the site would be instantly bitten by offers and methods that were described over the site. Moreover they would even put up fake profiles and reviews of people, claiming that they had saved hundreds of dollars. All of this fed to a person in over dose and there you have another victim.
Among the options that were suggested by the site are setting up wind mills, solar panels, solar cells and other type of batteries. But only once the delivery was done, you would know that there is no description of the product. People were left clueless about what to do with the products that were delivered. Moreover the quality of the delivered goods would also be totally substandard.
Since the scam actually started, many people across the globe have been cheated and have lost their money. So the next time you see an advertising related to such schemes, make it a point to make people aware that it is nothing but homemade energy scam and ask them to be totally away from it, or be ready to lose their money.
