Just read this on the BBC website:

Cost £11, Sell £15,000 :eek::eek::eek::eek:

No wonder the country's in difficulty when those in charge can't see through something like this!

That's sick, not only because of the money, but they are playing around with people's lives

They have actually been directly responsible for hundreds of deaths :mad:

And I can guarantee that some scum banker also made a mint at some point. Those start up costs had to come from somewhere. :mad:

I'm still trying to find words I'm able to use on a public forum to express how I feel about this... I keep re-reading the article in case it's a mistake, but it's not :mad:
The complete lack of any morality, coupled with an apparent lack of accountability, is just offensive. Those who profited, and those who sanctioned it, should be made to walk across a few minefields using the "device" until they find a live one.

I followed this up a bit as I couldn't believe anyone would be gullible enough to buy an extending antenna screwed into a thread bobbin, stuck on a dog walker handle. Incredibly, that's all it is. Pure snake oil.

Looks like dowsing to me. Believed by a minute minority. Amazing it was considered at all.

It's like a repeat of the emporers new clothes fairy tale.
