WASHINGTON, DC – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using and discard Wifi/Wifi0306 Magnetic Games because dangerous loose magnets pose a risk of serious injury or death if ingested by children. CPSC testing found that these magnets contain one or more magnets that fit within the CPSC’s small parts cylinder and exceed the allowable magnetic strength limits, thereby failing to comply with the requirements of federal mandatory regulations for magnetic toys. When powerful magnets are swallowed, they can be attracted to each other or other metal objects and become lodged in the digestive…
