Is it a scam, though? You'd have to ask Mageek.
Sometimes, your friends ask you for money, you know you won't see it again, and you still give it to them. Granted, for most of us that amounts to buying them a drink or three, not a bookstore, but ... it was the 70s. Based on the surrounding stories in the articles, I'd say their frame of understanding was a bit different from the average person today ;)
Maybe we shouldn't be so fast to cast aspersions on people we don't know, in circumstances we don't understand.
