20/02/09. CrazyCashSurf Review and Other News

THE PROGRAM HAS CLOSED! PLEASE DON’T INVEST!

Hi guys! Well I’m glad this Friday has finally rolled around as I don’t mind telling you that I for one am definitely looking forward to this weekend. Then again I look forward to most weekends but this one more than usual. The week isn’t over yet though and as well as a couple of interesting pieces I have in mind to publish on Saturday and Sunday, today I want to take a look at a site called CrazyCashSurf. It’s a somewhat controversial new autosurf and I’m sure many of you will have come across it being debated on the forums over the last couple of days. I have my own thoughts on that which I am quite happy to share with anybody who’s interested in hearing them. First though I want to have a look at the program itself based purely on its own merits. I know this week has been a bit top-heavy in relation to reviews of autosurfs but hey, why change mid-stream now? We’ll get back to the HYIPs very soon I promise. But for now let’s start with the investment plan on offer from CrazyCashSurf.

The two options of interest to members are the decidedly non-PC titled “Wacko” and “Psycho” plans. “Wackos” will earn 12.5% daily for 11 days of surfing. During that time you will need to surf thirteen sites per day. One ad pack will set you back just $5 and in this plan you may purchase up to 100 ad packs, or $500 worth in value. The reward for taking part in this plan will be a total return of 137.5% paid on expiry. For those of you adept at promoting the sites you join to others, there is a referral commission plan that will pay you 5% of your downline investment.

For the more ambitious players out there who prefer a bigger risk, “Psychos” as the admin might call you, lol, there is the slightly more generous return of 13% daily interest earned on your investment. Similar to the previous plan in the sense that you are also required to surf thirteen sites per day in order to be paid, also for a period of 11 days which will see you earn a total of 143% return on your principal, paid on expiry. The difference here though is that take part in this plan the minimum amount to spend is $505. The maximum amount is $10,000 with the price of ad packs, obviously, remaining unchanged. For those of you keen on promoting CrazyCashSurf to others the referral commission you can earn is also a little bit more generous at 6% although needless to say it’s unimportant what plan your downline decides to join here.

The hosting for CrazyCashSurf is provided by HushHosting. Their reputation is continually growing in stature as a top quality provider of anti-DDoS protection and all round back up technical support. And while it’s not on a dedicated server as is my preference, there is only one other site currently sharing that server and it’s inactive at the moment.

So far so good you might think. It all looks a bit like any number of autosurfs programs around at the moment with nothing too unusual. But this is where it all starts to get a bit tricky. CrazyCashSurf has been linked with some other less than popular sites by some astute forum members. Why so? Well the name itself “CrazyCashSurf” is not a new one, that much is not denied by anyone. It is the name of a defunct autosurf program from some time back. The domain, having fallen out of use became available to buy. So far there is no arguments from anyone about this. The point of contention now arises over what, if any, relationship the new owners of the name “CrazyCashSurf” have with the old ones. Or is it indeed the very same person?

Well in my opinion either answer, yes or no, can have a negative affect on the current program anyway. If yes, then there is the obvious connection with an old site that scammed. But we would assume that the admin would be smart enough to come up with a completely new name if launching another program. If the answer is no, it’s not the same person, then we should really have expected the new admin to do a bit more homework on this project and research the history of the name a bit more. If you are buying a domain name previously used by somebody else you really should find out the history behind that name, especially in this industry where absolute trust and transparency between admins and there members is at once both vitally important and extremely fragile. Just one bad word is all it takes to ruin a good program.

Whatever the case here I am sure of one thing. A lot of hard work is going to have to go into the building of a solid trustworthy reputation for CrazyCashSurf. I don’t want to seem as if I’m deliberately skipping over any alleged connection between this and other programs, but to be honest it’s not always my main concern when joining a new program anyway. From my own experience in this industry I have come to expect that the same relatively small pool of admins are behind well over 50% of programs anyway. And if we are to be brutally honest with ourselves we all know how they all finish up anyway. If the rumors are true on this one is entirely up to you to decide. For me the proof will be in the work of the admin and the longevity of the site.

So the verdict? I would say this is still one to watch. In the recent past we have seen several sites that everyone (myself included) fully expected to succeed fall flat on their face. On the other hand sites that little if anything was expected of have surprised us all. So who’s brave enough to call themselves an “expert” in this climate, lol? Like it or not the admin has inherited some baggage here and I will keep a keen eye on this one to see how she deals with it. Some hard work to be done here that’s for sure. But I wouldn’t write this one off just yet. I suspect most of you who may wish to invest here will want to wait until at least the first round of payouts on expiry are completed. And who could blame you? Nobody, least of all the admin who is going to have to accept that working people are entitled to have some very real concerns when it comes to investing their money. Action and not words is what is needed to turn CrazyCashSurf into a successful program.

Other news for today.

First of all I apologize for not informing you yesterday about the collapse of 24over7. I had other business to do and was unable to make a proper update on my blog. Although I did remove the program from Paying status and removed all the banners and changed the status to Waiting. To tell you the truth, the admin did reply to me on what happened with his program and he blamed mainly his hosting provider BlackLotus and the downtime which caused the shortage of funds. I wanted to find out more details but unfortunately haven’t received another reply yet. Here’s what Jim (if it’s his real name) had to say about the reasons why 24over7 came to an end:
“Unfortunately yes it is the end. Blacklotus has extorted money from us after I paid them $1449 upgrade on protection they suddenly wanted $4,000+ again just 3 hours after the so called upgrade was made.
I moved hosting but then the incoming funds were insufficient. Complicated things happened.”
As for Blacklotus’ extortion practice I have heard of that before but he also blamed one hit-n-runner (didn’t say his name though) who strangely made a huge withdrawal straight before the attack. Well, all those excuses should be taken with a grain of salt of course. The most important thing is that 24over7 is over prematurely. Many people were expecting wonders from it but the admin clearly stated from the beginning that it was a ponzi game. Unfortunately, DDoS-attacks did irrepairable damage just in less than 24 hours. It’s sad to see that the site is still open for upgrades though and so I can’t consider Jim as an honest admin. 24over7 is an official scam now and I have moved it to Not Paying status of course.

Some strange excuses have been heard from URInvest admin (the program is officially dead now btw). And again it’s the same bullshit. He blames everybody but himself which is kinda strange. Such hypocrisy is simply stunning but not surprising. This only proves that URInvest was a ponzi-game from the beginning and all the tales about real investments are nothing more than a figment of the admin’s imagination. Any proof of what he was telling us was not presented and guess what, it won’t be presented either:
“I wish I could provide more truth here, but I am not advised to do so by our company lawyers, who have now a hard time in front of them.”
If you haven’t seen what was published on some forums here is the most important part showing the real evil nature of the admin blaming bad people but not himself (he’s probably almost a saint himself, lol):
“You all should know that there are some very selfish, inherently and NATURALLY BAD people among YOU! Specifically, someone, who made large deposit a while back (therefore had more information about our company than others), after receiving the earnings in full, initiated an investigation of our program’s financial whereabouts, which in turn, cased probing by the authorities for fraud.
In case, you didn’t know, the authorities DO NOT do things any differently, but they are starting from freezing assets and anything they can get their jealous, shaking hands on. This is what HAPPENED TO URInvest and to some of our business partners, causing all operations to stall a few days ago. This only leaves us to regret wasted efforts on database errors correction, reported earlier.
Do you want to know how THEY do it?
ALL it takes to kill any hard working private fund out there, is Consistently good fund’s performance. Such funds are getting LABELED (often through the media) as “Too-good-to-be-true” and that’s it!!! No other reasons needed (just watch the latest financial news, but try to think deeper, if you can).”
The main thing which makes sense in all this bullshit speech is that URInvest program has officially turned into a scam. First excuses about script problems are proven to be untrue as well and I don’t think we should expect any word of truth from such people as the admin of URInvest.

Some scamming programs like ImmenseInvest try to spread ridiculous lies about the payment processor PerfectMoney. If you try to access the site now you will see some laughable allegations against PerfectMoney. Well, do you seriously believe a 24carat scammer like ImmenseInvest when he says PerfectMoney is run by a man who is among the Top Ten most wanted Fugitives by FBI? I nearly choked on my coffee I was laughing so much! Not a shred of evidence offered by ImmenseInvest of course and you are free to draw your own conclusions on that.

Speaking about PerfectMoney the company continues its steady development. Now you can set up notifications to your email account about deposits and withdrawals from your PM account as well. Visa virtual card has been introduced as well and you can purchase it from your account. Only one thing was a bit amusing in the recent update I received from PerfectMoney administration: they won an award from eCommerceJournal which is owned or controlled by the PM administration (I know it for sure). So don’t pay too much attention to this award as anybody can establish his own award and then give it to himself, lol. Anyway, this is the latest news from PerfectMoney:
“Those who haven’t heard anything about the new options in PerfectMoney for a long time will surely become interested in the current news. System enhances the opportunities to run business with the maximum efficiency. In the new series of innovations introduced by PM you will find not only the tools for more detailed analysis of your finances and your account state but new withdrawal options as well.
Recently all the users of PerfectMoney have got an opportunity to get real-time notifications about the deposit/withdrawal bank transfer operations, receipt of money, account login, updates of user information and about the new messages in the mailbox within the system. Having activated this service you will always be informed about the state of your account in PerfectMoney by getting immediate alerts that will surely have a commercially beneficial influence on your business.
To increase the effectiveness of the exchange operations within your account and to meet the requirements of the world economic conjuncture PerfectMoney has launched a new section “Analytics” where you will be able to find not only the latest news about currency pairs on Forex market but the quotes and charts which show a real-time change of the cross rates. Such option will surely be useful for those who make exchange transactions within their PerfectMoney account.
Another significant event for all users of PerfectMoney will be the introduction of a new withdrawal option via Visa virtual card. Now you can obtain Visa virtual cards within your account and to start purchasing all kinds of services and merchandise in thousands of online shops worldwide. Such cards are accepted in most shops of the world regardless the integrated billing system. Visa virtual cards are your security and comfort.
One more piece of good news for us and for you, our dear customers, was a victory of PerfectMoney payment system in category “Best Debut 2008” presented by the American economic magazine Ecommerce Journal. According to the results of voting PerfectMoney system has won with a considerable advantage. We are very grateful to all those who have voted for us and will try to do our best to please you with our new victories.”

Another important announcement came from the StrictPay payment processor. As you might have known LibertyReserve issued an update recently that was clearly directed against StrictPay and disallowing exchanges from LR to SP. So from now on deposits to your StrictPay account via LibertyReserve are closed and you can’t use this option anymore. There are other options left though like for example the newly launched exchanger from the former admin of AggeroInvestment Roger. This is the link if you’re interested and believe me this guy can be trusted (you should sign-up first before requesting an exchange). Other issues that StrictPay processor is having now include temporary inability to deposit via ACH transfer and to withdraw via debit card due to some maintenance made by their debit card provider. The card loads should be turned on again early next week and the card holders will be notified about it as soon as possible:
“StrictPay customers, LibertyReserve has recently contacted us, and they will no longer allow us to accept deposits into a StrictPay account from a LibertyReserve account. We will however still be allowed to let people withdraw funds from their StrictPay account into their LibertyReserve account for the time being. You can do this by clicking on the Withdraw link inside your StrictPay account, and then scroll down to the LibertyReserve option. Follow the instructions on this page and our funding department will complete that transfer for you within 24 to 48 hours.
There are a couple other situations we want to update you on as well. We currently are still trying to come to terms with our ACH provider as to whether we will be able to re-activate our ACH deposit feature, and we will update you if we see any progress. Our debit card provider is also currently doing some internal maintenance, and it appears that we will not be able to resume debit card loads until sometime early next week. We hope to be able to allow people to start requesting debit card loads early next week with the funds reaching the cards the very next business day, and we will update everyone again as soon as we know a definite time frame.
We know you have many options available to you, and we appreciate you choosing us as your payment option.”

I have to report about the problems with InstantPayments program which stopped paying just after 18 days online. Well, it was a high-profit high-risk game anyway and the admin didn’t claim any outside revenues for the program. Those who joined in the beginning and deposited into first two plans should be in profit by now.

TrecInvest is also gone for an unknown reason. I was about to validate if their address in London is real in March but now it’s obvious that it’s not. I wonder what really happened because there was no sign of a pending collapse.

Online7Trades‘ domain was suspended and I believe I know the reason why. I was going to publish the review of the program on my blog but then just two days ago I found out that they stole the design from a real investment company Scottrade. Just check their site here and you will see that everything about Online7Trades, even the phone number, was borrowed (i.e. stolen) from Scottrade site. I have tried to get a reasonable explanation from the admin of Online7Trades regarding this incident but he never responded. So I contacted Scottrade site and it appeared that they knew about Online7Trades “rip-off” intentions already. Here’s the reply I received from the support of Scottrade site:
“Thank you for your e-mail. We’ve recently discovered the Online7Trades site, and are not affiliated with it in any way. At the current time we are trying to have the site shut down or changed to remove any resemblance to Scottrade’s site. Please do not give this site any information or funds as we are not sure what the intentions this company are.”
Surely that even if Online7Trades program manages to come back with a different domain but with the same layout it will be suspended again pretty soon. So I advise you to stay away from Online7Trades program from now on. Meanwhile it will be listed as Waiting on my monitoring page.

Despite of so many autosurf programs that scammed over the last few days there are still some left that are trying to stay afloat. For instance, the admin of Nova-Surf (reviewed here) Irina Orzetic issued her first update where she introduced herself to the members and tried to assure everybody that Nova-Surf will be really different from other scamming programs. We will see it very soon, in a couple of days anyway, after the first payouts from 10% for 14 days plan are processed. So far the program has been running quite smoothly without any major issues being noted and let’s hope that it will keep it up for a long time. Here is the first newsletter from Nova-Surf:
“Hello everyone! This is Irina.
I am happy to be sending you our first newsletter and I must say how excited I am about Nova-Surf and the progress that we have seen already.
As of today we are over 350 members strong with about 7000$ in deposits and this is absolutely wonderful!
I also wanted to tell you a little bit about myself so that you can get to know me and I can get to know you.
My name is Irina and I am 29 years old. I have one child, a son who is 3 years old and I am also married.
I am from Croatia and I have lived here my whole life.
You will notice that lately we have seen some large programs fall and the fact is that they were paying out too much and could not sustain the returns promised. The 10% daily plan has been proven time and time again as being the most profitable while maintaining sustainability. I know that it doesn’t pay as much as the 12% or 13% daily plans but we will still be here when others have failed.
I am grateful for all of you being members of Nova-Surf and I know that as we get to know each other more we will all become great friends.
The first round of cashouts will happen on February 23rd and from that point forward I expect the fun to really begin!
I want to stress to all of you that Nova-Surf is not a program that was built overnight. A lot of hard work and planning went into this and I consider it to be my baby. I have also worked very hard to build up a fund to help sustain Nova-Surf through the first few rounds to ensure that we could make it for the long haul. Remember these high ROI sites are dying left and right because of lack of planning. Well, you wont have to worry about that here.
Together we can rewrite history in this industry. If you want to know what Nova-Surf is all about then I would encourage all of you to read the text that is written on the home page and know that I wrote that with my heart.
I will make this promise to you to work very hard to make Nova-Surf the best that it can be and I will do this for you.
After the first round of cashouts is when we will start our games and contests for the site. I have some wonderful things planned and I know that all of you will enjoy them very much.
Again thank you very much for being a part of Nova-Surf and know that I wont let you down.”

16DailyPay (reviewed here) is also doing good and the membership has already reached 500 members after almost two weeks online. After the first payments were processed on expiry the program seems to become a successful one. Here’s another update from the admin of 16DailyPay which I have received today:
“Wow! We are excited to inform you that 16DailyPay is now 500 members strong and growing daily.
As an appreciation of our excitement, member 500 will be credited with 2 free bonus units.
Also, we wish to thank all our supportive members for the success we are enjoying at 16DailyPay.”

The administration of UCGCapital (reviewed here) announced an increase in the minimum investment to their Forex Plan from the current $5K to $10K starting from March. This is how it was explained on the site of UCGCapital:
“Minimum deposit for the Forex Plan changed to $10 000, effective March 1.
Due to some recent changes in our trading strategies the minimum deposit amount for the Forex Plan is going to be changed to $10,000 effective from March 1.”

The admin of QuickYield program (reviewed here) announced another bonus week when all the deposits made on those days will get a 30% bonus. So if you were considering investing in QuickYield this is a good opportunity to increase your capital:
“It is long time since QuickYield offered any kind of bonus. After long time I got a special deal. So on this deal basis, I am offering 30% bonus on all deposits from 20-28 February only. This bonus offer will expire from 1st March 2009.
Just send email after making deposit to avail bonus. No deposit and bonus limit. Get 30% of your deposit. If you deposit 100$, then you will get 130$ in your account as deposit.”

I’m pleased how NanoMoneyCorp is doing so well even after 3 years operating. Yes, it’s one of the oldest online HYIPs. You can read more about that program by referring to my review published here. Today they finally introduced SSL-protection of members’ accounts. This was an exciting update published on NanoMoneyCorp site and I just wonder why it took them three years to implement it, lol. This is the update:
“Stay secured with SSL connection!
Dear investors and partners! We are proud to introduce you available SSL connection on our site. To make your surfing the site more secured you are free to connect to any site’s page through SSL protocol. We do hope that this would help most of you keep your accounts safer. So feel free to stay secured while being on our site!”
My first deposit of 1.2% for 30 business days in NanoMoneyCorp has just expired and I redeposited the whole amount because I have a good feeling about that program.

I don’t know why there are some bad votes regarding TrustCapital appearing on some forums because the program is still paying. I have received some more payments myself today (including 110% for expired deposit in 5 day plan). I don’t know what the reason was behind those bad votes but I guess it’s another attempt at blackmailing which TrustCapital has already suffered from in the past. Anyway, we will be looking forward for the first payouts on expiry from 160% after 20 days plan. You can read more of TrustCapital in my detailed review published here.

DukasFund (reviewed here) announced that they were two months online. In my opinion, it’s not such a long time for a program that is paying such a low percentage. We can say something more definite about it if it’s at least 6 months online. Here is the latest from the admin of DukasFund Jenny:
“Dear Valued Investor, I am glad to announce that we have completed our 2 months of Online operations. Our Investors number has become now 135. Thanks for supporting us and showing faith on our program. We will soon again start new Promotional campaign as a celebration of our 2 months completion.”

Since yesterday I published an interview and didn’t update my news section I would like to report that I was paid from the following programs for the last 48 hours: AggeroInvestment, 16DailyPay, Online7Trades, SilverLodge, 10DailyIncome, GoldNuggetInvest, CapitalCorpex, BVIuion, MajorBarter, 7Inv, ANOI, PanaMoney, TrustCapital, ImokTrade, ResidualForexIncome, NovalexFinance, NordicMutualFunds, QuickYield, 4BrothersInvestments, AcrylicTrade, Nova-Surf, IntensifyFunds, SteadyDailyProfit, UCGCapital, Pioneer-Fund, 13Daily.Pro, CrazyCashSurf (the first payment received) and 10DailyIncome (the first payment received).

By the way, another addition in my monitoring list is 10DailyIncome which just lunched today. The program was in pre-launch stage for a couple of days and just started a couple of hours ago. This is an autosurf program where you can earn 10% daily but with a twist – instead of the payouts made on expiry you will be paid daily. So expect a shorted lifespan from 10DailyIncome compared to other autosurfs but the risk is also reducing as you will be paid 10% daily and will not have to wait until your ad packs expire. There are three plans available: 10% for 15 days (the price for one ad pack is $5 for this plan), 10% for 20 days (the price of 1 ad pack is $10 for this plan) and 10% for 30 days (the price is $20 for 1 ad pack). As you can see the minimum amounts are still affordable almost to everybody and daily payouts will surely attract some members who don’t wish to risk with their money and wait a couple of weeks till the upgrade expires. There are four payment processors are currently accepted: LibertyReserve, PerfectMoney, SolidTrustPay and StrictPay. AlertPay is also in the pipeline. The site is hosted on a dedicated server by BlackLotus and is running on a Neversay script. I have already tested the site and the first payment was received quite fast. I’m planning to review 10DailyIncome on my blog tomorrow so stay tuned for that and I’ll see you then!
