Based on the use of fabulous and mythological motifs. It is relatively young, formed at the beginning of the last century. The founder of the literary movement is John Ronald Reuel Tolkien. The works of this writer are recognized as the best books in the fantasy genre.
Main features
What is fantasy? This is a type of work that is more reminiscent of a historical adventure novel. The action in novels and short stories of this genre takes place in Not real world reminiscent of the Middle Ages. Characters often encounter supernatural beings and phenomena. Often the narrative is built on the basis of an archetypal plot.
In order to answer the question of what fantasy is, one should compare this genre with science fiction. What is the main difference? Tolkien in his works, for example, does not seek to explain the world in which the main actions take place from the point of view of science. It may be another planet, the existence of which has not been proven.
The physical laws in the world inhabited by the characters of fantasy books are in most cases different from those on earth. The works are filled mythical creatures, such as dragons, gnomes, elves, goblins, trolls, centaurs. To the question "what is fantasy?" many answer: "Fairy tale." However, there are significant differences between these genres. Miracles in fantasy books happen systematically, they are a kind of laws of the universe where mythical creatures live.
Such a concept as fantasy races deserves special attention. In the works created in this genre, there is a division of all rational beings into ethnic groups. Everyone has a special culture, origin. Races are one of the most required elements fantasy.
Fantasy Foundation
In the Middle Ages, such a genre as epic was popular. Chivalric novels also gained considerable popularity. It was these genres that became the founders of the literary trend that is very popular today. medieval legends, legends, myths - all this is present in many fantasy novels. Representatives of this genre also use the traditions of classical Japanese, Chinese and Korean works, in which the magical component is quite large.
This genre developed in the 20th century. However, some literary critics also call the works of the Russian writer A.F. Veltman fantasy novels, for example, the book “Koschei the Immortal. Bylina of the old time, published in 1833. The Belarusian founder of the genre is Yan Barshchevsky. Fantasy creatures are present in the works of the English writer Henry Rider Haggard, namely the books "The Wanderer", "She", "Heart of the World", "Ice Gods".
Representatives of the genre
Nevertheless, it is correct to attribute to fantasy writers those whose work fell on the 20th century. Such authors include: Lord Edward Dunsany, Robert E. Howard, C.S. Lewis, James Cabell. Of course, the best book in the fantasy genre is Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, created in the 40s. The works of this author had a strong influence on the development of the literary trend.
The writer considered Tolkien's successor is Christopher Paolini. Today, fantasy stories have gained immense popularity. Novels and short stories of representatives of this genre are actively filmed. On bookshelves you can see a huge number of books with a fantasy plot and fairy tale characters. Works in this genre are considered quite popular. That is why every year a huge number of works of different quality are created. Among them are books of both Russian and foreign authors. Even such a direction as a fantasy detective was formed.
"Low" and "high" fantasy
There are several classifications of works created in this genre. One of the Russian literary critics, for example, divides fantasy into four types:
- Mystical-philosophical.
- Metaphorical.
- Heroic.
- "Black".
Another critic singled out these types of fantasy:
- Folklore fairy tale.
- Heroic.
- Heroic-epic.
- Myth-forming.
The most common classification is to divide fantasy into two categories: high and low. These names have nothing to do with the quality of the works. The classification is based on the number of fantasy characters.
In some books, the action takes place in a completely fictional world. In others fantasy creatures not so much. In a high fantasy work, the real world is usually not mentioned at all. A prime example serves famous book Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" and Sapkowski's The Witcher. Epic fantasy and "high" fantasy - literary terms, which are often used as synonyms.
Fans of this fashionable genre are familiar with books in which fantastic events take place in the real world. These are works of so-called low fantasy. Heroes do not believe in witchcraft, and the events that occur in the work are perceived as amazing phenomena. An example is Good Intentions by Gaiman and Pratchett. But the characters of books created in the high fantasy genre are by no means surprised by the ubiquitous presence of fantasy animals and other mysterious creatures.
epic fantasy
Already the term itself suggests that the works of this genre are distinguished by a large volume. Epic fantasy is characterized by a long struggle of characters with a powerful enemy, a representative of evil. The works describe cataclysms, large-scale wars. The task of the protagonist is to save the whole world or a significant part of it. In works created in the epic fantasy genre, as a rule, campaigns and large-scale battles are described. The central part of the plot is the mission of the main character and his friends. In such books there is a clear division of heroes into positive and negative.
The first work created in this genre is Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. Many of the plot moves that the writer used later became archetypal. Tolkien was imitated by such authors as Dennis McKiernan, Terry Brooks, Helmut Pesch, Christopher Paolini. This type of genre is the most popular. Another famous example epic fantasy - "Chronicles of Amber" by R. Zelazny.
dark fantasy
This subgenre is close to Gothic. Dark fantasy is based on classic fantasy laws. However, the basis of the plot in which works is not the struggle between Good and Evil. In books of this subgenre villain already won. His rule is perceived by other heroes as a matter of routine. But suddenly there are more active characters who unfold the fight against dark forces. The main idea in such works is the confrontation between "great" and "small" evil. There is oppressive darkness, complete hopelessness. One of the founders of dark fantasy is H. Lovecraft.
mythological motifs
The genre is based on folklore fairy tales. Depending on what kind of mythology lies in the works, there are several more types of fantasy. The authors use Slavic, Scandinavian, oriental motifs. In the work "The Ship in the Fjord" by Elizabeth Dvoretskaya, for example, there are elements of German-Scandinavian mythology. And in the books “Across the Thinking Kingdoms” by A. Foster, “Children of Anansi” by N. Gaiman, African motifs are found. Synthesis is also allowed. The mixture of mythological foundations was used by the same Neil Gaiman in the book American Gods.
Slavic fantasy
Subgenre based on usage Slavic mythology. The first works appeared as a response to the wave of Western fantasy gaining popularity. One of the representatives of the genre is Yuri Nikitin with a series of works "Three from the Forest". In the style of Slavic fantasy, Maria Semyonova also created a number of novels.
The subgenre is based on a combination of standard fantasy canons and Slavic folklore. In the plot of such works there are elements of epics, legends, myths. Within the framework of the subgenre, two types are distinguished: heroic and historical. On the basis of Russian folklore, not only domestic writers, but also foreign ones create their books. West Slavic legends are used in the works of Andrzej Sapkowski.
Heroic fantasy
This literary direction has a lot in common with such a genre as alternative history. The action takes place on the basis of known events, but certain elements of fantasy are added to the plot. One of the representatives of the subgenre is Harry Turtledove. In the genre of historical fantasy, such Russian authors as Yuri Nikitin, Alexandra Mazina, Elena Khaetskaya write.
Parodies
Fantasy in the second half of the last century has gained wide popularity in the world. Published a large number of low-quality works, and then parodies on them. In the eighties, a series of works by Terry Pratchett was published, which is a parody of the fabulous heroic epic. The writer became the founder of a new subgenre. Pratchett's books have also inspired many Russian authors. So, in 1995, Mikhail Uspensky's book "Where we are not" was published. A satire on the works of the popular literary genre is also “We rolled your Sun” by E. Lukin.
Children's fantasy
This is a special subgenre. Concerning children's fantasy literary critics exact definition not allowed. It is generally accepted that the main characters in such works are children with unique abilities. The logical conclusion of the story is the victory of good over evil. Such books have much in common with the novel of education.
Who is the brightest representative childish fantasy? The name of this writer is known to all. Lewis Carroll created a series of stories about the adventures of the girl Alice, which are loved by young readers around the world. They were created in the 19th century, long before the formation of the fantasy genre. Nevertheless, they can be safely attributed to this literary direction.
John Ronald Reuel Tolkin
The writer is known primarily for the works of "The Silmarillion", "Lord of the Rings", "Hοbbit, or There and οbrother", created in the genre of high οkοgο fantasy. Tolkin - one of the most widely read authors of the 20th century. It is difficult to give an exact figure. According to some data, by the end of the last century, more than fifty million copies of the book "Lord of the Rings" were sold, and the book became one of the most sold in the century.
Tolkina's works have been translated into more than thirty languages, including Japanese, Estonian, Greek, Finnish, and Vietnamese. Researchers of creativity οsnοvοpοlοzhnik fantasy pοdschit that οοn avtοr more than two hundred different publications. To the general public, the writer became known as the author of "Lord of the Rings", created in the 40s of the XX century as a continuation of "Khοbbit".
Work on the product lasted more than ten years. Another two years dragged on negotiations with publishers. Everything in this work is unusual: characters, events, plot, and philosophy. Readers and researchers unanimously note the amazing diversity and specificity of Tοkin's world, which has its own way of life, culture, geοgraphy and history.
Οdnakο creativityο thisοgο of the writer attracts the attention of researchers not only with its striking popularity and unusualness, nο and the genre with its svοeοbraziem. It is worth saying that both in the Western and in the Russian cultural space sfοrmirο there was such a direction in literary studies as "Tlkinism".
Other books by this author: "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight", "Niggle's Brush Leaf", "Farmer Giles of Ham", "The Ballad of Aοtru and Itrun", "Monsters and Critics", "Rοverandοm", "Tales of the Fairyland". This, of course, is far from being a complete list of works created by Jοnοm Tοlkinοm. It is worth saying that most of his books were published on death.
Roger Zelazny
The American writer is known for his series of works "Chronicles of Amber". In total, Zhelezny has about twenty novels and several collections of short stories to his credit. He is a six-time winner of the Hugo Award, and several times received other awards that are very prestigious in the English-speaking literary world.
The first five books in the Chronicles of Amber series are The Guns of Avalon, The Nine Princes of Amber, The Mark of the Unicorn, The Realm of Chaos, The Hand of Oberon. These works were first published in the seventies. Later, Zelezny wrote Cards of Destiny, Mark of Chaos, Blood of Amber, Knight of Shadows.
Joanne Rowling
In the mid-nineties, Rowling completed her manuscript of the novel "Harry Pοtter and the Philοsοfsky Stone". The book, as is known, became a bestseller, although publishers did not immediately appreciate it. With the product of Rοling, a story known to many famous writers. The manuscript was sent to twelve publishing houses, and was rejected everywhere.
A year later, the writer still received an advance from editor Barry Cunningham of Bloomsbury. Khοtya οn warned that Rοling had little chance to make money from children's books. Two years later, the creator of "Harry Potter" received a grant in the amount of eight thousand pounds for the continuation of stories about the character, loved by both children and adults.
In June 1997, the "Philosophic Stone" was published with an initial circulation of a thousand copies. The book received several awards. In early 1998, an auction was held in the United States for the rights to publish the novel, which was won by a large publishing house for one hundred thousand dollars. A continuation of the first rοman, "Harry Pοtter and the Chamber of Secrets", wasο οpublοvanο in July 1998. The fourth book was released simultaneously in the UK and the USA. Rowling received the British Book Awards as the author of the year.
Terry Pratchett
Among the many British writers, famous all over the world for their fantasy stories, the books of this author became very successful not only for children's audiences, but also for adults. The creator of "Ploskοgο of the world" began his creative path at the age of thirteen, when his small story was first published in the school newspaper, and then published in a literary magazine. Then Terry released his first novel - "People kοvra". With the publication of the work "The Color of Magic" the famous cycle began.
Pratchett's first novel didn't make a splash in the literary world. Οdnakο οn became the starting point of development of the fantasy universe created by the writer and springboard in his literary career.
The greater popularity of the cycle in the first place brought a satirical view of literature inherent in the author, ridiculing other novels of the genre. As the writer himself notes, the novels in the Plοskοm world began as an antidote to οt badly written writings in the fantasy genre. The case is in tοm, that in the late seventies in England, this direction becameο unbelievably popular. Many of the fantasy works of those days, according to T. Pratchett, were secondary, due to the fact that their creators did not want or could not bring something new to this genre, to develop it further.
Parodying pοbοbnye creations, Pratchett connected several typical fantasy universes in the bottom and called it the Flat World. Οsnοvu rοmanοv is precisely parοdia - both on works of classical literature and on little-known works of English writers. In his books there are jokes on almost any topic, from the history of the pyramids of Egypt to Hollywood and classical philosophy. The Pοskοgο series of the world is conventionally divided into four cycles: ο in the wizard Rincewind, ο witches from Lancre, ο the night guard of Ankh-Mοrpοrk and ο Death, not counting a number of pοbοchnye works related to οthe writing of the selfοgο peace.
The action takes place on the planet, which has the form of a disk. In other words, this is a flat planet, whose world is strikingly different from the usual reality. Here the light moves slowly, the magic is material, and in the rainbow there are not seven, but eight colors. Tο, which in the ordinary world is considered a myth, in the Plοskοm world it is completely real.
A distinguishing feature of the series of books in the Flat World can also be considered the οsοbuyu form of narration used by Pratchettοm. The author describes life and adventures not as οth-tο οsnοvnοth group of characters, but on the contrary divides rοmany into several cycles, each of which in its turn focuses on certain characters. The plot lines of rοmanοv and places where the action unfolds often intersect between sοbοy in different works.
Andrzej Sapkowski
Most famous work Polish science fiction writer is the Witcher saga. Sapkowski's books have been published in Russian, Czech, Spanish, German, Spanish and other languages. His work began in the mid-eighties, when a short story was published that tells about the adventures of the witcher Geralt of Rivia, one of the most famous fantasy characters.
Books by Andrzej Sapkowski: The Hour of Contempt, Baptism by Fire, The Last Wish, The Tower of the Swallow, The Lady of the Lake, The Road of No Return.
George Martin
The writer began his creative way as a screenwriter. For a long time he considered fantasy to be a frivolous genre. However, Martin always spoke positively of Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. However, the writer's prejudice was destroyed only after the publication of the work "Memory, Sorrow and Turn". After reading Williams' book, Martin decided to write something in the fantasy genre himself. The A Song of Ice and Fire series brought him worldwide fame.
Ursula Kroeber Le Guin
The American writer differs from other representatives of fantasy primarily in her humanitarian bias and emphasis on anthropology and sociology. There are many fantastic details in her books. Nevertheless, Ursula Le Guin writes primarily about man. The fantasy world described in her works is inhabited by characters with typical human features. The main thing in the plot is the growing up of the hero, his knowledge, entry into another culture. Most famous works Ursula Le Guin - stories about Earthsea: "The Tombs of Atuan", "The Wizard of Earthsea", "On the Last Shore", "Tehanu".
famous fantasy characters
This genre has become the most popular in the 21st century. A huge number of fantasy works are published annually. Let's name the characters of the novels of the best authors:
- Prince Corvin ("Chronicles of Amber").
- Frodo the Hobbit ("The Lord of the Rings").
- Geralt (The Witcher).
- Jon Snow ("A Song of Ice and Fire").
- Grand Mage Ged ("Wizard of Earthsea").
- Peter, Edmund, Susan and Lucy (The Chronicles of Narnia).
The principle of the hero and the principle of the world Gusarov proposes to consider as meaningful principles of fantasy. One cannot but agree with this, but with a slight clarification. The definition of the content of the secondary world must be put in the first place, since the creation of any fantastic work, according to modern science fiction researchers, begins with the "creation" of the world: "... first of all, it is necessary to create a certain world, arranging it as best as possible and thinking it through in detail" .
The main process that happens to the main character is his heroic identification. The hero has five comparative-analytical qualities: "Getting magical quality or means", "Identification of the hero - the second stage", "Magic helper, zoomorphic transfiguration, types of transfiguration", "Identification of the hero - the last stage", "Motive miraculous birth fantasy hero.
Analyzing the process of identifying the main character as a hero, we distinguish two stages of this identification. The first stage is the identification of the hero of Russian fantasy of the late twentieth century. associated with the initial manifestation in him of special powers that have a witchcraft nature. The presence of the original witch nature in the hero determines his first stage of initiation as a change social status from low, "invisible" to high - demanded, "visible". A symbol of social change can be the acquisition of an iconic weapon with which the hero is magically, supernaturally connected. The acquisition of a high status is confirmed as a social change (title, high position), as well as the attitude of others. The change in status also indicates that the "foreign" world for the hero becomes his own.
The second stage of the process of identifying a character as a protagonist takes place on several levels. The first level is when, following the traditional change in social status, the hero becomes visible to the personified irrational force of the "foreign" world. The identification of the hero by the irrational forces of the "foreign" world can occur through a system of imposing and violating prohibitions (the legacy of a folk fairy tale), which in the context of fantasy represent the game rules of the plot (violation of the prohibition is the goal, and the method of violation is an unrealistic plan, fantastic conjecture). The second level of the second stage of identification is strongly associated with the communication of the prophecy to the hero, where he is identified as the expected messiah. The main function of prophecy in the poetics of fantasy, as in fairy tale, - transmission to the hero of a message about the main sabotage and ways to eliminate it. The importance of the hero's mission and the prophecy about him is directly related to the degree of danger of the antagonist.
The presence of a special gift in the nature of the hero also depends on the degree of danger coming from the antagonist. The image of the antagonist in fantasy contains sacral features that are clearly expressed or revealed during analysis. Antagonist in figurative system Russian fantasy of the late 1990s often has pronounced signs of a sacred cosmic essence, its most important and fundamental function is the disruption of the balance and order of the secondary fantasy world. This has its consequence in the image of the hero, who, in the process of his heroic identification, must manifest himself as a person who also has signs of sacredness.
In Russian fantasy, the last stage of the hero's identification partially occurs in the figurative system of two fairy-tale functions of "transfiguration" (sign T) - "the hero is given a new look" and one of the constituent components of the function "the hero gets a magic tool" (designation Zoomorphic transfiguration Z). The hero of Russian fantasy can experience two types of transfiguration: according to the zoomorphic type - turning into a monster-messiah, or acquiring the signs of an anthropomorphic divine being - anthropomorphic transfiguration.
A typological dependence of the form of the hero's transfiguration on the appearance of the enemy is built: the more monstrous the enemy, the more fantastic metamorphosis the hero undergoes. It is obvious that fantasy poetics, stubborn in its desire for integration, is not limited to one traditional way hero identification images. She uses the full range of fantastic transformation of the main character
It is quite obvious that the actions of the fantasy hero take his image beyond the framework of the system of symbols that came from the spheres of both funeral and initiatory sex and age rites. It seems that here we are dealing with figurative structures, whose roots go back to mystical initiation. In the context of mystical initiation, three constants stand out, consistently and rhythmically repeating in the image of the main character of Russian fantasy: the salvation of the world/man, unity with the highest deity, the vertical nature of the path.
So, we can conclude that in the structure of the image of the hero of the late twentieth century. systems of representations are traced, ascending, in addition to heroic initiation, to the archaic practice of an initiatory shamanic ritual.
As the reasons for the specificity of the poetics of Russian fantasy of the late twentieth century, we name:
First, the occurrence mystical image in modern Russian fantasy may be associated with the emerging science fiction 20th century the trend of depicting extraterrestrials, where the cosmos is easy to populate with "beings on an increasing scale, perfect until we achieve something practically indistinguishable from omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience." Secondly, the psychological justification for the emergence of a sacred image in fantasy poetics can come from, according to Yu.M. Lotman, from the tendency to reversibility of plots.
If there is a plot about a hero passing from inner space to outer space, acquiring something there and returning, "then there must be a reverse plot: the hero comes from outer space, suffers damage and returns."
These are stories about the incarnation of a god, his death here and his return. The third reason for the special attraction to the creation of a consistent mystical image of a fantasy hero lies, it seems to us, in the special interaction of elements of folklore plot and folklore picture of the world, which is reflected with a certain degree of completeness in fantastic works. This interaction is such that any "element that enters this system must "attach" to it, it evolves until it takes the form that the system requires, and one of the main requirements of folklore plot is the requirement of meaningfulness" .
HELL. Gusarova singles out the formulaic principle of a fantasy hero, which is "tied" to an irrational gift and its obligatory implementation in a conditional fantasy world. "In addition," she writes, "in connection with the existence of the irrational Gift and its necessary implementation in the "crucible of trials", the principle of the world is defined as magical and divided dichotomously. In this regard, the magical world is the focus of the eternal battle. A hero drawn by his gift returns to this world... The principle of the hero and the principle of the world Gusarov proposes to consider as meaningful principles of fantasy. One cannot but agree with this, but with a slight clarification. The definition of the content of the secondary world must be put in the first place, since the creation of any fantastic work, according to modern science fiction researchers, begins with the "creation" of the world: "... first of all, it is necessary to create a certain world, arranging it as best as possible and thinking it through in detail" .
In addition to various races, there are also fantastic animals in fantasy. They are an image of the response of the surrounding world to the actions and worldview of the main characters in the books. Let's try to understand the diversity of fantasy fauna:
the unicorn is the personification of purity, chastity and purity, which are revealed only to those who themselves are also sinless and innocent. Presented as a snow-white horse with a sparkling horn on its head;
ent - a tree that has come to life, protecting the race of elves in case of an attack. They are a model of fidelity and willpower;
chimera - a terrible and dangerous creature, assembled from parts of the bodies of animals. Most often appears before the reader with a huge snake head on a lion's body. It is an image of deceit and resourcefulness;
gargoyle - a giant bat made of marble, which is obliged to protect its creator and serves as a messenger and scout for him. Represents devotion and a sense of duty;
Modeus is a fiery demon summoned by sorcerers for their own protection in dangerous situations. They are dutiful and obedient, but at the expense of deceit and duplicity, they want to kill the one who disturbed them with his call and enslave his soul;
dragons - giant flying lizards, differing in the elements that gave birth to them, but united in their greed and greed;
wyverns are dead dragons brought back to life by dark magic and serving as guardians of the necropolises of the undead. Doomed to the suffering of an afterlife, they are the focus of malice and a thirst for revenge;
hypogryphs - akin to chimeras, as they are a winged lion's body with a bird's head. They serve as an example of loyalty and pride, deny betrayal and are devoted to their owners until death;
Gnols are treacherous and cunning creatures, spawned by experiments with magic. They look like humans, but with the head of a hyena. They often engage in robbery, but, not knowing the value of money, they only keep it without using it;
Thaamag is a huge demoness, the guardian of the underworld. Thus, creatures from the fantasy world help the reader to imagine the most likely reaction of others to any of his actions or opinions. This, of course, allows a person to determine for himself his life course.
Let's dwell on the most popular fantasy races:
Elves - (alfe, elaf) Pointy-eared "children of the forest", excellent archers. They are divided into forest (Bosmer), higher (Altmer), dark (danmer) and ghostly (Scaimer). In parentheses are their "true" names, invented by science fiction writers.
Orcs are a race of green-skinned monsters who are still very stupid, but already very warlike.
Undead - (undead) are also known as "not dead". They represent dead men who have come to life at the will of dark magicians-necromancers. They are perhaps the most beloved creatures of both authors and readers.
Vampires - everyone knows the legends about night hunters with white faces and black souls. Vampires can be classified as undead, but due to their popularity and antiquity, they have long been separate view in fantasy.
Gnomes are a short people who live underground. They love gold more than anything and are the best blacksmiths in the world.
Demons - (daimonium) a formidable race born of hatred fallen angels and hellfire. They are cunning and two-faced, but at the same time they have their own code of honor, and they strictly follow it.
Elementals - a race created during experiments with the elements of fire, earth and water. Subsequently, the elements of these three principles created the air elemental. They exemplify the friendship and understanding that they display in group work.
These and many other inhabitants of fantasy worlds can have a significant impact on a person's worldview. They personify any qualities of people and show them to the reader.

Attention!
Sites and blogs have appeared on the Internet that are not our official sites, but use our name. Be careful. Fraudsters use our name, our email addresses for their newsletters, information from our books and our websites. Using our name, they drag people into various magic forums and deceive (give advice and recommendations that can harm, or lure out money for performing magical rituals, making amulets and teaching magic).
On our sites, we do not provide links to magical forums or sites of magical healers. We do not participate in any forums. We do not give consultations by phone, we do not have time for this.
Note! We are not engaged in healing and magic, we do not make or sell talismans and amulets. We do not engage in magical and healing practices at all, we have not offered and do not offer such services.
The only direction of our work is correspondence consultations in writing, training through an esoteric club and writing books.
Sometimes people write to us that on some sites they saw information that we allegedly deceived someone - they took money for healing sessions or making amulets. We officially declare that this is slander, not true. In all our lives, we have never deceived anyone. On the pages of our site, in the materials of the club, we always write that you need to be an honest decent person. For us, an honest name is not an empty phrase.
People who write slander about us are guided by the basest motives - envy, greed, they have black souls. The time has come when slander pays well. Now many are ready to sell their homeland for three kopecks, and it is even easier to engage in slandering decent people. People who write slander do not understand that they are seriously worsening their karma, worsening their fate and the fate of their loved ones. It is pointless to talk with such people about conscience, about faith in God. They do not believe in God, because a believer will never make a deal with his conscience, he will never engage in deceit, slander, and fraud.
There are a lot of scammers, pseudo-magicians, charlatans, envious people, people without conscience and honor, hungry for money. The police and other regulatory agencies are not yet able to cope with the increasing influx of "Cheat for profit" insanity.
So please be careful!
