04/05/2010. Interview with the admin of ChokoMoney

BEWARE! THIS PROGRAM HAS STOPPED PAYING! PLEASE DO NOT INVEST!

Hi everyone! The first of two posts today will be an interview with the admin of the highly popular short term HYI program ChokoMoney. His name is Chris and despite giving us a brief scare last night when his website went offline due to technical issues (successfully mitigated by HushHosting by the way, so kudos to them for another job well done!) the first round of payouts on expiry have now been made and many members are now enjoying their profits.

ChokoMoney is a short term HYIP related game with just the one investment plan available. It pays 135% interest, principal included, after a term of 7 days. And it’s proving to be enormously popular so fingers crossed Chris will get the support he deserves to keep it running for as long as possible. I for one appreciate the no nonsense approach adopted by him in his dealings with the members and keeping us all informed as to exactly what we are getting ourselves involved with. So kudos to him too! For further information on ChokoMoney please refer back to my original review published here.

“1. Hi Chris, please introduce yourself to the readers of MNO and tell us about your own role within ChokoMoney. What are your own duties within the program? How would you describe a typical working day for you as an admin of an online investment project?

Hello Paul and all MNO readers. Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to be interviewed in your blog. My name is Chris and I am the admin of ChokoMoney. As an admin of the program, I am doing my best to provide everyone with the best service in terms of making payments in the fastest time I can and answering to support requests.

2. Can you also give us some background on the program? How long have you been running? What were you hoping to achieve by starting it in the first place? Apart from you is there anybody else working on ChokoMoney?

ChokoMoney was launched only one week ago and has already attracted over 760 members with over $100k deposited which is totally amazing and mind-blowing as ChokoMoney has just officially began today as the first payouts on expiry were processed. The level of members’ support is enormous and I am looking forward to seeing ChokoMoney‘s growth in the coming months when it will most likely have thousands of registered members.

3. What about the investment plans? Can you explain them in detail to us? What are the minimum and maximum amounts for investment, what rates of interest are on offer and how long do they run for?

ChokoMoney offers one investment plan to its members and that is 135% return on their investment after 7 days. (Or in my words : Sweeten your money every week!). The minimum amount to invest is $5 and the maximum is $3000. Every day after you made the deposit your account is credited with 19.29% return and after 7 days you will be able to withdraw your 135% return on your investment.

4. Tell us about the payment options available from ChokoMoney. What payment processors are you currently dealing with?

ChokoMoney accepts 4 major payment processors that are used widely among investors : AlertPay, LibertyReserve, StrictPay and PerfectMoney. I have no plans to add more payment processors in the future. I’ll stick with these 4.

5. How highly would you rate the security of your own website? Tell us about your hosting provider and how highly would you rate them as a service provider?

ChokoMoney is hosted by HushHosting on the fastest server with the highest level of DDOS protection. I am very proud that I chose HushHosting, they are the best of the best in terms of migrating DDOS attacks and so far they migrated two DDOS attacks in a matter of minutes which is totally incredible. Also their support is extremely fast, they answer in seconds. They have never let me down in the past and I am definitely going to stick with them in the future.

6. What about your script? Who is the provider and what do you think the benefits of this script are to both the admin and the investors? Are you using SSL encryption?

My script is Neversay and I am glad I chose Neversay script because I can always contact Neversay if there is a problem and he is always willing to help in no time. ChokoMoney is protected against hackers, and all the data sent is 100% secured and safe.

7. What kind of customer support do you offer? What is the best and most efficient way to contact you if I have any questions?

Members can contact me directly by sending me an e-mail to chokomoneyco@yahoo.com or simply using the contact form on the website and I always get back to them as soon as I am online. Rest assured I will always try to give you the best support possible but please also understand that I am receiving thousands of emails everyday so it’s not a easy task at all to answer so fast to all support requests.

8. What have been the most common questions, problems, or other support related issues that you have had to deal with so far? Is there anything you would like to address here so that members can avoid having to contact you?

Well, I almost didn’t receive any complaints about login issues and most of the questions were regarding deposits & withdrawals or explaining how the process works. Most emails I receive everyday are from blog, monitors and forum owners begging me to advertise in their blog/monitor/forum. LOL.

9. What other outside business and investment activities are ChokoMoney involved with? Are you doing anything more constructive with your member’s money or are you?

You see Paul, I am not doing what other admins do and that is lying to members about forex, arbitrage betting etc. Being straightforward and honest with my approach I want to clarify everyone that all HYIPs are nothing more than games and nobody is really involved with such investments and there are no exceptions here. I have been in this industry for years and I can say that with confidence. I do, however, think that if an admin of a program doesn’t have any bad intentions and provided that the members’ support is enormous, a program can become very successful and last long compared to other HYIPs that pay on expiry that don’t last even one cycle. And that is what I am hoping to show with ChokoMoney.

10. I see you have an interesting contest running at the moment. What can you tell us about that? How successful has it been? Also tell us more about the general advertising and promotional strategies being used by ChokoMoney.

ChokoMoney currently has two contests running. The first one is ChokoMoney Creativity Contest which is testing the creativity skills of the member and will end tomorrow (Tuesday). In order to participate in it the member should photograph something that shows a combination of chocolate & money and upload it to ChokoMoney‘s thread in at least one of the forums MMG, TG, DTM, ITM. I will announce the winner tomorrow and the prize he was given. The winner is the one who uploaded the creation I liked the most. So far I saw 2 creations but remember that Saturday & Sunday were weekends so I believe I will see some more creations until tomorrow. Another contest is the First Referral Contest Ever of ChokoMoney with the extremely generous prizes of $500 to the best referrer, $250 to the second and $100 to the third. This contest ends on May 10th. Remember that this two contests are just the very beginning!

11. Are there any plans to develop ChokoMoney further in the near future? Will there be any interesting changes made soon? How are you planning to keep the program competitive with so many new HYIPs opening every day?

I don’t think I should change something. Everything looks perfect if you ask me. The plan will remain the same, the maximum deposit amount will stay $3000, no changes are planned to the layout too. I will be doing my job everyday and hopefully with a very strong members’ support ChokoMoney will be able to break a record in a lifetime of short term HYIP.

12. And finally is there anything else you wish to say not covered in this interview? If there was just one thing you could say to investors to get them to join your program before any other then what would it be?

Do your due diligence before joining any program! And that means, check how serious the admin is in making payments and answering to support requests, see if he spent money for advertising and what are his plans for the future etc. I hope that the newsletter I send almost everyday show investors the difference between other HYIP admins and me. With the industry falling apart, I hope that ChokoMoney will at least show you that are good programs with honest admins out there. I’ll give you all my best to make ChokoMoney a very successful and profitable program for everyone! Thank you for this interview!”

Well what can I say except surrender to deliciousness, lol! Thanks a lot to Chris for that and best of luck to all the members willing to take a chance on his program. That’s it until tonight when I’ll be back again with another new review and all the day’s important news stories so stay tuned for that and see you all then!
