Pure SPAM trash. These things have been around for 20 or more
years, they did not work then nor now.

Heh! KW-hour meters measure resistive loads. Since inductive loads have the
same phase displacement as resistive loads, inductive loads (like AC
compressors) also are accurately measured by a KWH meter.

Reactive loads are NOT detected by a KWH meter. Placing the right sized
capacitor across an inductive load phase shifts the load into a reactive
load which IS invisible to a KWH meter.

So there's some truth to the claim. I don't think you can turn a pure
resistive load (like a light bulb) into behaving like a reactive one (on the
other hand, CFL have a transformer...).
