Hi, guys! What an awful week we had! So many good programs failed including MoneyTrip, AdProsperity and my new pick FastProfit4You. And unfortunately they all scammed. I cannot say anything else about this but to call spade a spade. Let’s make some analysis of why seemingly successful programs fail so quickly and leave such devastating effects behind not only for the investors who lost in their programs but on the industry as a whole.

First the biggest falling of this week is certainly MoneyTrip. David/Orinto scammed to such a degree that it shook the whole autosurf industry. Some of the members even considered MoneyTrip as a possible hit for months to come. But all the hopes were broken after the email that became good-bye which he sent to all the members stating that since the membership is too high he couldn’t process the payouts as fast as before. And after that was nothing: no payments, no emails, no admin. He just disappeared into thin air with all the investors’ money. Actually somebody could reach him on Yahoo Messenger but instead of the answers to the worrying questions they only got some ridiculous offers from David to give him more money in exchange for returning it twice on the following day. There was speculation that it possibly might not be him and that somebody just hacked his YIM account.

But even if you run a ponzi game and it’s going bad at least you can tell the members about it and close the shop being more or less honest like AdProsperity admin did. But what a man you should be to leave your site completely to accept more upgrades and even try to cheat your members on Yahoo at the same time. I consider this behavior absolutely unacceptable and think that David should be ashamed of his actions. By the way, maybe his real name is not David but Tadas Kasputis as his account is called in SolidTrustPay. One thing I know for sure: I can say that his IP indicates he is in Vilnius, Lithuania if somebody is interested in this kind of information. Anyway, wherever he lived I can name him as one of the biggest scammers of 2008 as he managed to build trust between him and the members, slowly but steadily weaving his web of lies and bad intentions, making people believe that he really made some income that would make MoneyTrip stable and successful program in the long run.

For these 40 days of being online the growth of MoneyTrip was phenomenal and the program had every chance to become the biggest in 2008 but the admin David/Orinto/Tadas or whoever he is chose to scam his loyal members and hadn’t the guts to come out and say that the game was up. I despise such people: liars and cheaters, they are an absolute cancer in this industry.

I could understand why Thom, the admin of FastProfit4You chose to scam so fast (though the program had a lot of potential in my opinion). At least everybody knew it was a game and I hope nobody invested more than they could afford to lose. I really apologize that I promoted FastProfit4You but I honestly believed that it could become the next big program like YourProfitHere (which is still paying by the way). FP4Y just started to become popular and the admin is keeping silent since yesterday while still accepting the deposits from unwary investors so he’s just using the same tactics as David from MoneyTrip used. Well, the nature of scammers is all the same and I hope that they will be punished somewhere someday when they expect it the least (I believe in karma and am sure they will get what they deserve sooner or later).

Here I would also like to add that please before investing check out my monitoring page. It’s updated on a daily basis and if you see “Waiting” status or the program disappeared from the list please don’t deposit there even if you read it on my blog. I never edit my blog posts afterwards and only the current post can reflect the reality truly. Remember that the HYIP and autosurf world is highly volatile and what was a good choice today can become a scam tomorrow. So I encourage you once more to check my monitoring page first and make sure that the site is marked as “Paying” before investing there. It would be even better if you subscribe to my “Money-News Club” newsletter where I send alerts on a regular basis about the new promising programs I joined and possible scams. The last time I sent email to all my subscribers straight after I received the email from David, MoneyTrip admin about the possible delays with payouts and asked my subscribers to be more cautious and don’t upgrade. I know that it’s not the best solution but at least you will save the money that you might otherwise have given to this scammer David.

I believe that the demise of MoneyTrip had a deep impact on the entire autosurfing industry. In what way you may ask? Well, it’s simple to explain. Remember in a previous post I told you about so called “leeches”? “Leeches” are autosurfs that neither produce any income for the members nor are they just pure ponzi sites: instead they just deposit members’ money into more successful (in their opinion) autosurf sites therefore trying to make some income for themselves. That’s why they are the most dangerous ones: you can’t predict when it will go down and I already told you about the danger of such an approach.

Why am I telling you this? Because I’m almost sure that AdProsperity which surprisingly for many announced its closure on the day after it became clear that MoneyTrip would not return, used the very same tactics. Myself and other members saw Daniel, the admin of AdProsperity in MoneyTrip’s thread of MMG forum just before he sent out this email: “With a great regret I want to say that our funds are depleted. AdProsperity reached the minimum where there is no way to continue. The last few days required a lot of funds coming in order to complete the current payments. I don’t see any other option but closing AdProsperity for good. I don’t think restructuring the program will help to stabilize the cash in-flow level. Thanks for the support AP received from some members. I am sorry for the ones who lost money in AP. This is just the nature of autosurfing. I hope you will recover your losses in the other programs out there.”

Sorry, but I don’t believe that the funds were depleted after only 3 weeks since the launch. I think that Daniel, the admin of AdProsperity just “invested” some money into MoneyTrip program and since it’s closed he had no choice but to close his program as well. I’m sure he left enough money for himself too but at least he had the decency to send some sort of good-bye letter to his members and put the site down. Although I consider AdProsperity as an absolute failure and can call the admin only unprofessional and even amateur in running an autosurf site. Unless of course it was his intention to scam from the beginning. It cannot be excluded from the possibilities. If the latter is true I can only congratulate him for having such a good plan but also I’d like to tell him that stolen money will not bring him happiness either. Trust me this money stolen from honest people will not bring scammers the happiness they are looking for. Even buying expensive things for this money will not make them happier because they will always know that they lied, cheated and stole this money and that this money is dirty and doesn’t belong to them.

Sorry for my rant but I just can’t just sit and watch quietly when such scammers as Nein from Tramael announce the beginning of round 3 just several days after the closure of round 2. I considered him honest before I found out for a fact that he hired paid voters to post for him on several monitors. They were claiming Tramael round 2 was paying for the last two days before closing when in reality no proof of payment has been offered. Also he didn’t even try to modify his program for round 3 to make it at least look more viable and competitive. So I would strongly recommend to all of you NOT to support Tramael this time. By supporting Nein this time again you are giving him a right to be an arrogant and lazy admin that is afraid of admitting his own mistakes and using lies to attract more investors to his program. I’m just hoping it will make such admins like Nein think carefully before spreading lies and silly excuses to put a big chunk of somebody else’s money into their pockets.

Here I would like to give another warning. Maybe it’s not true but it’s always better be safe than sorry later. I noticed recently some worrying signs in both Jamie’s programs PSTraffic (PST) and PSAdvertising (PSA). The case is the payments are being delayed now and stretched from the same day after requests to the maximum of three days. Maybe there’s nothing wrong with it as they are still within TOS but as you know there is no smoke without fire.The admin didn’t appear on the forums this week. He instead left his loyal supporters to answer unpleasant questions from worried investors. For example they said that PSTraffic became so big that there were too many payout requests daily and the admin could’t process them all. I don’t accept this reason simply because of some calculations I’ve just made. Let’s see: I had two cashout requests #1479 made on 22/03 and #1545 on 24/03. As you can see there are not more than 30-40 cashouts to be processed daily and I certainly don’t consider that as a work overload for the admin. I don’t even want to mention PSAdvertising whose Alexa ranking is very low and declining. Therefore it’s really strange for me that Twenty24Four, the moderator for PSTraffic, launched his own program RandomROI recently. Despite the hype that Jamie tried to create with his welcome letters asking you to join RandomROI that he sent out to members of both PST and PSA. It’s quite an interesting model but I opted not to join this one simply because of possible cashflow problems in PST and PSA. I would NOT recommend joining RandomROI just because it is somehow connected with possibly sinking PST and PSA and I think that this connection is closer than a lot might think and the launching of this program is more than just a simple coincidence.

I don’t know if PST and PSA are in danger but I know for sure that my next pick of the week SurfLibertAd is still doing great. I can only congratulate Robert on the more than 1,000 members the site reached this week and encourage you all to read my interview with him here. On a brighter note, Robert told us that he NEVER invested any money in MoneyTrip though David suggested him to do it so I consider him being smarter than Daniel from AdProsperity that became a “leech”. Anyway, I strongly recommend you to give your attention to SurfLibertAd (10% for 13 days with daily payouts) that has now after the premature demise of MoneyTrip and AdProsperity become the leader in autosurfing industry. Be aware though that Robert will soon take the necessary steps to reduce the number of cashouts to several times a week instead of unlimited cashouts. I can understand it because of a real work overload that he experiences daily. He has every reason to do so with more than 1,000 members already. Here’s the highlight from his latest update:
“As I have mentioned before, I might be limiting cashouts to maybe 3 cashouts per week for each member, when I think I can’t handle the number of cashouts submitted per day when our member base grows even more. As you all know we are a daily cashout site and there is a HUGE margin as to how many cashouts are submitted compared to those who only pay after expiry. My work is 13X more than those sites. So I will be asking for your cooperation and patience and acceptance on the 3 times per week cashout soon, I will pre-inform everyone, at least a week or few days before we implement such change.
Other than that, I think you all know, SurfLibertAd is growing at a good rate. Members keep referring, promoting and advertising our program. Members also keep on reupgrading and new members upgrade even more. I can only promise you that I will do all I can to make our program 100% fully backed with continuous income streams. I am working on that every day, by thinking of more ideas.
I am here for you my dear members, and I am hoping that you will always be there for me too.
I also would like to inform you that, I always do backup of our database and site files for our security, so no matter what happens we are secured. Our funds are safe and will “NEVER” be hacked.
Did you know that I process cashouts one by one? Well now you know.”

Among HYIPs one is my favorite now is BetHYIP - 10% for 15 days. The program is online for more than 3 weeks and continues paying like clockwork already reaching almost $20,000 in deposits. The admin claims to make money on “Match fixing” betting and you are welcome to read my interview with him here. I’m going to redeposit some money tomorrow after my first 15 day cycle is completed and I hope for many more cycles ahead. Meanwhile the admin Snaik just presented his new banner and you can take a look at it after this paragraph. I think it’s a meaningful banner of course provided that BetHYIP is really backed up by some betting income and not just a purely ponzi site.

YourProfitHere is another good choice that is paying me stably on a daily basis. Though YourProfitHere is not an instant payment site anymore the admin Marc is active even after 11 days online and is trying to process all the payments in a reasonable timeframe which sometimes is no more than a few minutes after the request. I will finish my second 5 day cycle tonight and will be on the third now. To read my interview with the admin of YourProfitHere click here.

With the sudden end of both MoneyTrip and AdProsperity I think it would not be a bad idea to pay some attention to the more stable low ROI programs that is slow but steady performers in my portfolio. I would suggest you to consider investing in OG Fund, UltimateHYIP and SafeAtom but my favorite program among low ROI HYIPs is undoubtedly AcmosTrade. It grows slowly but steadily and I believe it will become the new MInvestment very soon. One of the members recently accused the admins of AcmosTrade over the lack of promotional methods they were using and I think it would be interesting for you all to read what Jenifer (support member) answered him:
“Our website has been added to some main monitoring websites and we have many serious investors already who are very keen on working with us. Additional advertising would be just an unnecessary spending of money.
I think every thinking person can understand the difference between a real Company and some “investment projects” registered 1-2 weeks ago and paying 20-33-55-200-500% daily for 5 days. They need a lot of advertising – we are not here for 5 days, we do not need masses of small investors in a rush.
Our member count is growing without any big advertising campaigns and we are happy to see this as a result of our successful work.”
You can find all the necessary details about AcmosTrade in my exclusive interview with the founder of AcmosTrade Jack Williams here.

Finally I would like to mention that there is still a chance for the members of MoneyTrip that used to upgrade via SolidTrustPay and AlertPay as they allow chargebacks and you have a chance to get at least a part of your money back if you contact them and make a complaint (I know that Stella from STP just confirmed that David’s account in STP had been frozen and hopefully the members will be refunded at least partially). Let’s learn some lessons from all this unfortunate businesswith MoneyTrip and move on! I just hope there will be less liars and more honest people in this industry and will continue to do my best with providing you the necessary info about the best money making opportunities online. Stay tuned for more news and surprises soon and check back with my blog regularly! Thanks for your attention and see you tomorrow!

P.S. IMPORTANT! After the article has been published David/Orinto appeared on MMG forum with such a statement: “I am lost. I am not as strong as you were. Everything was going perfectly well. What can I do now? Please give me advise. 3 of 4 payment accounts was hacked. Yes I got it back, but what can I do now? Please leave a comment“. So maybe there’s some hope left? I will keep you updated.

Hi, guys! What a day we had! AdProsperity closed the day after it became obvious that MoneyTrip was gone. Is it just a pure coincidence and how can it affect the industry? Wanna know? Then read tomorrow’s post on my blog. Even my new favorite pick FastProfit4You has some problems now (hope they are temporary). But there are many really good programs out there left with dedicated admins who know how to run HYIP project and make it successful and stable. Among such admins I can name is the admin of EmmaInvest, Emma, who started her program only six days ago but made it already quite popular among investors. I have a deposit running in its Gold plan (138% after 6 days) and also I received some referral commissions. I also know that some members have been paid already and redeposited. I will not repeat here my opinion on EmmaInvest (overall it’s positive, by the way) but if you want to know it just refer to my review of this program here. So let me introduce you to the admin of EmmaInvest- one of my best picks for now.

“1. Please introduce yourself to my readers and tell us what experience you have (if any) in running your online projects. How did you come up with your own HYIP project?

Greetings! I’m Emma, the admin of EmmaInvest. I’m glad to introduce my program to your readers. First I would like to thank all members for making the choice. Yes, I have good experience in the administration of online programs. I have opened the EmmaInvest site for people who know well what HYIPs are all about, and who know how they work. I’m ready to share my experience with everyone. I’m ready to share a chance to earn good profits with everyone.

2. Why did you choose to use X-HYIP script? Do you consider it secure and safe enough from hacker’s attacks?

I like X-HYIP script because the work of the site is fully transparent for everyone. Yes, it is a secured script. X-HYIP has several account protection options, such as GeoIP or User Hot Data Protection. The member can also see when someone visits his account.

3. Does the EmmaInvest site have some anti-DDOS protection in place? Are you ready for possible DDOS-attacks that nowadays seem to occur quite often?

DDoS attacks is a serious danger. Yes, EmmaInvest has DDoS Protection and yes I’m working on additional protection solutions, because DDoS protection is a very difficult and expensive task.

4. Please tell us about the investment plans EmmaInvest offers to its investors. What kind of bonuses do you offer to the investors who will make deposits into Silver and Gold plans? What is the purpose of these bonuses?

EmmaInvest has 3 plans. You can Withdraw your money only after your deposit plan expires.

Bronze: 112% after 4 days
Silver: 125% after 5 days, bonus +1% from initial deposit
Gold: 138% after 6 days, bonus +2% from initial deposit I’m interested in long term stability for EmmaInvest, so I decided to give bonuses for investors who prefer longer plans.

5. What e-currencies do you accept in EmmaInvest? Why is the maximum deposit in all the plans only $100? Do you plan to increase the maximum deposit in the near future?

E-gold, LibertyReserve and V-Money. Yes, maximum deposit is limited. Also the total amount of all your active deposits can’t be more than US$250 per account. I’m interested in stability for EmmaInvest. I hate “hit-n-runner” types. I plan to set the deposit limit from $100 to $50 soon.

6. What promotional strategy are you using to make EmmaInvest known to your potential investors? Are you satisfied with the program’s growth so far?

I use many ways. Advertising on popular forums such as MMG, TG (banner,
link), DTM (big banner). Advertising on popular monitors, on autosurfs programs, banner and link exchange. Mailing via PTR sites, PTC advertising, banner advertising etc. Yes, I’m satisfied with the program’s growth, but I’ll continue EmmaInvest advertising.

7. Do you think with such high ROI plans EmmaInvest has a good chance to become a sustainable program and run for a long time? What are your plans for the near future?

I’ll be honest. This is HYIP world, I think it possible if members will always support EmmaInvest. I have plan to do the EmmaInvest most popular program in fast HYIP segment.

8. What differentiates EmmaInvest from similar online programs? What are the key factors that will determine its success in your opinion?

Full transparency of the work, I think. And of course fast payouts and fast support.

9. What would you like to say to all the investors that are reading this interview right now to encourage them to try your program?

I would like to thank them all for their attention first. What can I say? Welcome to the EmmaInvest.

10. What is your opinion about my blog? Do you think it provides investors with necessary info for picking the right programs online?

Great job! I received many visits from your blog. Yes, you share a good analysis of information about every program. Keep it up! Good luck and thank you for the interview.”

So we can see that EmmaInvest has everything to become a successful HYIP: “hit-n-runners” protection, stable and secure script, reliable hosting, attractive plans but the most important thing - it has an experienced admin in Emma, devoted to her project. I would like to thank her for taking some time from her busy schedule and answering my questions and hope EmmaInvest will be here for a long time.

Today I found and joined another short-term program FastProfit4You that is based on Waylex script which is becoming very popular among HYIP owners. FastProfit4You offers 3 plans: Light (55% for 2 days), Silver (115% after 2 days) and Gold (40% for 4 days). It accepts LibertyReserve and e-gold. Light and Silver plans has a very low minimum of $1 but to join the Gold plan you need to have at least $300 to invest with. To tell you the truth, I joined the Light plan but if I had $300 on my LR account I would go with the Gold one as FastProfit4You is very new and there’s a big chance to be in profit there. Let’s have a closer look on the main features of the site.

1) FastProfit4You uses Waylex script which I mentioned before in my review of YourProfitHere. Many users and admins claim it has the highest level of security. If you’re curious to see how it looks from the inside just go to the main page of FastProfit4You website and try to log in with the following info: username - test, password - testtest. Then you will have a general idea of how it works. And yes, the most positive thing is that the payouts are instant and you will not have to wait and worry for them. In my opinion using Waylex is a definite advantage of FastProfit4You website.

2) I can say that FastProfit4You is fully protected against DDOS-attacks and the admin uses a secure BlackLotus server, secure Waylex script, makes regular back-ups of all the data and is available online 24/7. If it’s true and he’s online all the time I don’t think that he works alone, but I can ask him about this in an interview I will try to conduct with him soon. As far as I know his name is Thom Nelson and he really provides fast support.

3) It’s showed on Fastprofit4You site that it’s online for 3 days when actually I noticed it accepts deposits only for 2 days. I think the first day was a testing day to try the script. The plans are very reasonable in my opinion (from 10% to 15% after 2 days) and with good management FastProfit4You can be run for a long time. The risks right now are very low as the site is brand new and provided you will be in profit just after 2 days why not try it?

4) I already told you that the admin is a really hard-working guy and is constantly improving his site. Today for example he added another banner and assured me that FAQ section was under construction and would be available soon. The promotion campaign is already impressive so we can expect stable growth for the next few days. For instance, the admin has already added more than 20 monitors. That is crucial in my opinion for every successful promotional campaign so I expect many new members in the last couple of days joining FastProfit4You.

Other news for today.

As I predicted Invest4Games couldn’t recover from the constant rule changes and problems with hosting so the admin decided to close the program and issue refunds: “Invest4Games project is officially CLOSED. Now I try to move database to new hosting without domain to calculate how much I can refund to members.” I will watch this process and report to you if the refunds really are processed because I’ve heard too many refund promises from admins that they almost always fail to deliver. So I would be surprised if we see some refunds here!

It’s already been two days since I saw David, the admin of MoneyTrip for the last time. He suddenly disappeared from all the forums and even from Yahoo Messenger where he was available every day for the last number of weeks he ran the program. I assume it’s not a good sign and something obviously happened. I don’t like to believe that he made this program just to scam us but the silence is deafening and simply makes me more and more suspicious. So even despite the last payouts being paid two days ago and still within TOS (up to 5 business days) I consider this lack of communication as a very strange and disturbing factor that made me downgrade MoneyTrip to “Waiting” status on my monitoring page. Please don’t upgrade there until you hear something positive from the admin and until the payments are resumed. I still hope it’s not the end.

In view of the fact that MoneyTrip is gone I made SurfLibertAd my next “Pick of the Week”. The admin Robert is very active with support and prompt daily payments and wants to make his program even better. Today in a private conversation with me he admitted that he’s going to make SurfLibertAd 100% backed up by real business in the near future. I remind you that SurfLibertAd is not just an autosurf site but partially backed by car and mobile phones trading. Read the details in my interview with the admin here. So far the payments are processed daily and I consider SurfLibertAd as one of the best choices now.

YourProfitHere is still paying but not instantly. The admin mentioned recently that they had some script issues so it was decided that the payments would be processed manually: “Instant payouts had to be disabled again due to some script issues. But we will process them as fast as possible manually.” Although I can say that I received my payments from YourProfitHere very fast after making a request so I think there’s nothing to worry about yet. To read my interview with the admin Marc please click here.

I’m also glad to report that I received payments today from OG Fund, AcmosTrade, EmmaInvest, BetHYIP, SafeAtom, UltimateHYIP and PSTraffic. See you, guys, tomorrow!
