Scammers upload videos showing a generator "working" on a meter. Watch carefully: The meter is always a demonstration unit in a workshop, not a live utility meter. Demo meters use a default key ( 0000000000000000 ), which is trivial to generate for. Live meters use unique keys.

Amateur programmers find the open-source STS library on GitHub. They build a GUI that generates a 20-digit number. It is mathematically valid (checksum passes), but it is cryptographically wrong (decrypts to negative kWh). They upload it as a "generator." New users try it, get "Error 8 (Invalid Token)," and assume they did something wrong. Siemens Cashpower 2000 Electricity Code Generatorl
