LifeWave Energy Patches

Now you can get more energy from a patch! I especially like the way that
they "believe" that it works. It is also based on years of research from
many fields. While the research may be valid, I'm not sure that their
results were intended to be used with a "patent pending blend of water,
oxygen, amino acids and organics applied to a polyester fabric and sealed
within a polymer shell".

We can finally have our super-soldiers now!

"2010 Revenue:$38.8 million"
Mmmm The authorities might actually start taking an interest in this particular scam now that they claim to be making the big bucks!

I guess crackpots attract each other.
Check out Peter Ragnar.

"However, with the new discoveries in nanotechnology, we can also use specifically designed informational molecular antennas that can be placed like a small Band-Aid on certain acupoints. David Schmidt, the founder of LifeWave, and myself have joined forces to write about the power of new nanotechnology breakthroughs in the use of the LifeWave patches, as well as our explorations into ear-whispered secrets of the ancients. Can we unlock the combination lock of human energy and aging? Stay tuned—The LifeWave Experience to a New You will soon be going to press." |

No, an old Chinese guy once whispered into my ear, "Our ancestors have known for thousands of year that smearing honey and molasses on yourself is nanotechnology that sends commands to your body, just like ancient Chinese cell phones have always done." |

Wellbeing.
Welcome to the LifeWave scam thread on the Hoax Forum.
Thank you for confirming that the patches are nothing more than placebos.
I trust, as an upstanding citizen, with ethics and morals, you will be encouraging David Schmidt, not a doctor or a scientist but does have a 2 year business studies degree from Pace University, to label all his products as placebos, right? |

Bob Burtis at WWSN has noted that LifeWave is about to enter the cell phone shield SCAM.
Isn't that David Schmidt a clever man!
http://www.generazionebio.com/notizie/294-nome-in-codice-project-cell-shield.html
It's even got a code name!
Project CELL SHIELD.
Application for a Trademark is in the works.
Let's not forget that last year the word was you could just stick a patch on the back of your phone.
"...if you place a lifewave patch on the back side of your phone it will neutralize any possibility of the phone metals affecting your health."
WOW.

Well, Lifewave has a brand spanking new “research” paper published. http://lifewave.com/pdf/Research/pub-HolisticHealthCareJrnl.pdf
Special Issue on LifeWave Studies (6 Studies total)
Holistic Health Care And Research Journal (Vol I, No. 001, Oct-Dec 2011)
Note that it’s published in a “special issue” of the journal. Vol. I, No. 001. That’s right, this all-Lifewave issue is the very first edition of this journal ever published. Numero Uno. So it must be a respect journal, if it’s never been published before, right?
So what about the publisher, this “Holistic Health Care and Research Organization” with an address in India and a website of http://www.hhcro.org?
As of today, none of the links on that website seem to work. They all take you to the home page.
According to WHOIS, the domain http://www.hhcro.org is registered to an anonymous party using a P.O. box in Australia as an address. http://www.networksolutions.com/whois-search/hhcro.org That. domain was registered on November 22, 2011.
Domain Name:HHCRO.ORG
Created On:22-Nov-2011 05:54:32 UTC
I’m sure HHCRO is a very respected organization, with a very respected research journal.
This special edition certainly starts off in an authoritative way: “The aim of this research project was to prove the efficacy of Energy enhancer patches (Ice wave and Glutathione Patches) on energy fields and chakras.”
Of course, true research doesn’t begin with the goal of proving anything. Its goal is to test and discover.
And energy fields and chakras? They may as well have started with, “The aim of this project was to prove that Lifewave patches enhance the ability of leprechauns to find gold.” |

THE GDV IMAGING SCAM BY LIFEWAVE AND OTHER WOO-WOO GADGET SELLERS EXPOSED
There’s another scam product out there called the electroDot. The British company that hawks it says that the “electroDOT is . . . programmed to harmonise electromagnetic radiation from electronic equipment.” Apparently you stick this little gizmo on your cell phone or your personal massage wand or whatever, and it’s supposed to protect you from the “electro-pollution” that emanates from your electronic devices that could be “frazzling your day.” http://www.phiharmonics.com/electroDOT.php Perh.aps it’s the latest anti-electro-gizmo from our drooling friend Kharma Singh at http://www.harmonyunited.com because it sounds a lot like his Harmony Chip.
So what’s the connection to Lifewave patches?
Well, for one, they both use cool, psychedelic looking colored pictures that look like Grateful Dead concert t-shirts and that supposedly represent “gas discharge visualization” (GDV) imaging of the aura around your body, both before and after treatment with what they’re respectively trying to sell you. The “Before” and “After” pictures for both of these woo-woo products supposedly prove their magical properties that those stupid engineers and scientists couldn’t possibly understand.
But what’s absolutely amazing about the two of them is that the “After” electroDot GDR images are the exact same pictures as the “Before” Lifewave patch GDR images that Lifewave proudly displays in its latest “research” paper.
Compare:
(a) the three “After using electroDot for 2 days” images on the right at http://www.phiharmonics.com/bio-imaging.php with ,
(b) the three “Before” Icewave Patch images on page 7 of the “special issue” of the all-Lifewave journal from the Indian “Holistic Health Care and Research Organization” posted on Lifewave’s website http://lifewave.com/pdf/Research/pub-HolisticHealthCareJrnl.pdf
They are exactly the same images in all their psychedelic glory, including the crude stylized drawings of humans inside the auras. Imagine that.
Oops.
I was pretty confident that if I poked around a bit, I would find the Lifewave images somewhere else on an unrelated New Age website. Sure, enough, it only took me about 15 minutes to find the exact same images being used to sell some other woo-woo crapola scam product as supposedly representing the “research” on that product.
But the true believers (the Lifewave distributors) still won’t care, will they? This proof that Lifewave fabricates its “research” out of whole cloth won’t mean a thing to them.

Joel,
I'm not surprised to see yet another scam surfacing. It appears that because the general public is so gullible and the authorities take so long to even look at a scam as a worthwhile money making prosecution, they proliferate with abandon.
Gotta love it! |

"Ethical Junction is a vibrant community of responsible organisations who care about doing better for people and the planet."
That has to be one of the funniest descriptions of a scam. |

Slightly off topic, but not entirely:
Is the Amazing Saga of Kevin Trudeau v. Federal Trade Commission Finally Over?
http://nutrisuplaw.com/
Sleazeball Kevin Trudeau has now been fined a total of $45 million dollars in 4 separate findings by the FTC spanning 11 years that he defrauded consumers with his phony weight loss and other products. He has now also been banned from making any infomercials for 3 years. The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals recently upheld the latest FTC action against him including the 3-year ban and a $37.6 million fine.
Gee, and his products came with all those testimonials and endorsements, just like Lifewave. If there were testimonials, it couldn't have been a scam, could it? Gosh, he seemed so passionate and sincere about helping people, just like David Schmidt. |

Joel,
I still see Trudeau infomercials on my cable TV.
He came out with an "investigative" type show where the "investigator" knocked on doors and spoke to people who confirmed they had made money by following the nice Mr. Trudeau's instructions from his books!

Yeah, Trudeau is definitely pushing the boundaries by finding loopholes in the injunction against him. He got held in contempt of court by a federal judge once, but the Seventh Circuit overturned that finding. |

PATENT STATUS UPDATE
On March 15, 2012, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) once again rejected David Schmidt's U.S. patent application serial number 12/915,419, which as far as I can tell is the only patent application that Schmidt has pending anywhere in the world.
This time the PTO rejected Schmidt's application in part based on a prior patent application by Edward Ludwig Blendermann, who appears to be a chiropractor in Florida who had written to the PTO and said essentially, "Hey, I was the inventor of what David Schmidt is now trying to claim. Don't give Schmidt a patent." Mr. Blendermann himself may have posted at one time on this forum under the name "Buster in Port Orange, Florida." See his post at http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/forum/forum_comments/2526/P4419
Again, as far as I can tell, Schmidt has never obtained a patent on anything anywhere in the world, although he failed at 3 prior attempts to get patents on supposed inventions relating to batteries and hydrogen production (abandoned U.S. patent application serial numbers 09/775,550, 09/886,935, and 09/887,531).
As I have said before, whether Schmidt eventually gets a patent says nothing about whether his magic patches works as advertised. But it has now been 9-1/2 years since Schmidt filed his first (provisional) patent application for his magic patches in 2002. Based on the history of Schmidt's patent application, including his abandoned parent application serial no. 10/669,596, Schmidt seems happy to spend as little money as possible and make the process as slow as possible, even though that means that for every one day that clicks away, he loses what would be one day off of the life of any patent that might eventually issue. People who have real inventions that have real value do not choose the slow boat to a patent, at least not in my experience.
Does anybody know anything about this Edward Blendermann guy? |

If anyone is interested, I have been collecting any evidence of the scam/fraud of Lifewave, CieAura,etc and the people behind it and compiling it on
http://www.PatchDiscBandScam.com
Its easy to find alot of never ending forums like this one with lots of opinions and references to evidence -- much more difficult to actually find links that the actual evidence of the fraud.

Cool. Thanks.
One minor correction. You stated that: "LifeWave (http://www.lifewave.com/) largely spun off from 8ight (http://www.8ight.com/) which sell the same stuff dealing with 'intrinsic energy'."
Actually, it's the other way around. 8ight was formed by Warren Hanchey who had previously been with Lifewave after Warren Hanchey and David Schmidt had some sort of falling out that left Hanchey publicly saying some uncomplimentary things about Schmidt. See http://www.qalias.com/view_profile/Warren/E/Hanchey/1065/0/ Hanc.hey has apparently since been joined by Ron Morefield, another ex-Lifewaver. |

Thanks Joel - I've updated that point on Lifewave/8ight in my Initial Research post.
If you have any additional information on Hanchey or Ron Morefield I'd be interested in any information. |

PatchDiscBandScam - If you'd like to add David Schmidt's provisional patent application in which he twice refers to himself as "Dr. David Schmidt," I posted the directions for retrieving that document from the Patent Office's website at http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/forum/forum_comments/2526/P5340 |

Thanks Joel - I posted a entry on http://www.patchdiscbandscam.com/ for the whole history of Schmidt's patent's as far as I could dig into it this morning anyway.
As I originally got into this through my annoyance with CieAura, I'd be curious if you know of any filings for their claims. |

Nice work, PatchDiscBandScam.
Your site should be very helpful in exposing these scams to anybody who is willing to expend just a little bit of due diligence effort before he becomes both a shill for these companies and a victim at the same time.
I especially like the chart that you've posted on http://www.patchdiscbandscam.com/ showing how all of these sleazeballs are interconnected with a number of different scams. It appears to show "2 degrees of separation" between MLM miracle product scams. It's a tightly knit group. I wonder if they have secret meetings to discuss which techniques work the best for selling scam products. |
