beside that classic scenarii, of small scale extorsion, I think about a more serious scenario.
I have seen from the history log of LENR, from social network, that HATE agains LENr is huge by "Science Mindguards". I'm not too afraid from manipulation accidents by corps (they have NGO to manipulate oure fears, no need to fraud). however given the hate, I will expect two kind of individual false flag accident : - by desperate anti-LENR-science who want to be right anyway... not far from a psychotic case - by anti-growth, anti-technology, neomalthusians, gaiaists the latest is nearly sure. the first looks surprising, but from what I've seen it is not impossible. Science community and their fans is more violent than politics. Imagine the behavior of tea-party or occupywallstreet, translated in anti-LENR-science. Imagine timothy macvey (?) in anti-LENR-science, trying to protect the Science from evil LENR corruption... Or a LENR-unabomber... I have been shocked by the quantity of hate in that domain. Really there is room for a Shakespearian saga to be written or filmed.
