Because no one will notice how your dice fly to one particular spot in the table, or why they clump together, or why they don't knock apart if you roll them separately.

Not only is that guy pathetic for doing this, but it's obvious that his dice are STICKING TOGETHER to one spot on the table. I'd give it at the very most 2-3 rolls before it's discovered and he's kicked out of wherever he's playing.

post this up on dakka and warseer and , that would be awesome.
Oh internet, you never cease to amaze. 1 roll and I'd mutter a bit. 2 and I'd call my buddy with his magnetized models over. This guy would be through the window of my LGS, quickly followed by his models. It's just so ridiculously blatant, at least weighted dice fall somewhat naturally.

Wow he must really not have been hugged much as a kid if he feels the need to cheat at toy soldiers. Not only would it be pretty damn obvious by the way that dice clump together or how they unnaturally slide across the table, but if a die is cocked like that I would become suspicious. Lets also just look at the one, it's supposed to be recessed on the die but the way he is putting the magnet it even just pushed in it would be pretty obvious.

Fool doesn't realize you can shove a die with the 1 down in a microwave for about 5-10 seconds and the inner core will move down to that side and it'll unbalance. And that's very hard to be caught aside from consistant rolls...
Please don't try this guys.

And watch him just move the magnet from under the table and suddenly roll normally.
On the clumping thing, I think that if (as he suggests ) you have the magnet in your pocket and thus farther away from the table, the clumping and effect wouldn't be as pronounced.
He seems to have put a fair amount of thought into this and maybe even played games with this "tactic".

almost want to, just to see it work. I mean, I would never use it in a game, but I do have alot of old dice that arent my good ones (the ones that aren't color coordinated to go with my army, I mean)
