Hi Duncan,
 
    This is the Internet age. Any damn fool can make  any claim they want and 
broadcast it worldwide. In the "good old days" such  claims were confined to 
the back pages of "how-to" magazines and comic books.  There is effectively no 
international protection against this sort of quackery,  and the few nations 
that have laws against false medical claims cannot or will  not stand up to 
the tidal wave of falsehood to which the Internet provides  full and open 
access. Notice the legal double-talk: it is sold as a "healing  machine", then the 
disclaimer that it is "not for healing or treating any  disease".
 
    Even on this list of ~200 seemingly rational  people, where there is 
continual vigilance to keep Tesla-based quackery and  superstition at bay, there 
are a few who would do otherwise. I guess that as  long as there are desperate, 
suffering people, there will always be some,  whether in lab coats or in 
collars willing to prey upon them, and separate  them from their money.
 
Good Luck,
 
Matt D.
