World Power Systems scam

I was thinking I had seen it in 80 Microcomputing. If I get time this
weekend, I'll see if I can find it. My memory is hazy on the issue, but I
believe I either sent them money for a product, or was _about_ to send them
money when it turned out to be a scam. I remember things like mock-ups of
products that they used in their ads; they'd taken some standard project
boxes and literally just sat parts of switches, LED lenses, etc, on top of
them for the photographs. I think I may have talked to someone at the
"company" about their products. If I can ask, what prompted this after so long?
