Magnises was a card-based membership club co-founded by convicted fraudster Billy McFarland in August 2013.[1] Similar to Fyre Festival, another later scam by McFarland, Ja Rule was the spokesman.[2] The club card was not itself a real credit card; members could use it to make purchases only by first linking it to one of their pre-existing credit card accounts.
