13/09/2010. Interview with the admin of 144CashAds
BEWARE! THIS PROGRAM IS PAYING SELECTIVELY! PLEASE DO NOT INVEST!
Hi guys! One of the most original and interesting long term HYIPs to emerge recently is surely 144CashAds and today I’m pleased to have received the following interview with its admin Lewies. His is an unusual but definitely eye-catching and intriguing method of trying to offer long term stable low ROI payments to investors but also to reward long term investors with access to affordable short term plans that are almost entirely protected from hit-and-runners. It’s gotten some interesting results to date and could very well develop into a huge hit this Autumn.
At first glance 144CashAds may look like something completely different from the run of the mill HYIPs out there, and that’s fine because it is. But don’t be put off if it looks a little tricky as the fact is that it only takes a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the workings. The program offers six investment plans, all of which pay 144% interest, over shorter and shorter terms. However in order to avail of the shorter term plans members must first have an active deposit in the longer term ones.
There’s no real need to go into it in too much detail again here as Lewies does that in his interview below. If it’s not totally clear to you however you can simply refer back to my detailed review of 144CashAds published here where everything is outlined in as simple terms as I was able. If you have any comments about this interview or on the 144CashAds website in general you can also post them on the MNO forum thread given over to them here.
“1. Hi admin, please start by introducing yourself to the readers of MNO and telling us a bit first about your own role in 144CashAds and then about your background in the HYIP industry. What kind of previous experience do you have in managing funds?
Hi all MNO readers, my name is Lewies and I am the founder and owner of 144CashAds. I am the decision maker when it comes to all financial and promotional activities.
After graduation I obtained a diploma in marketing management and worked for the following seven years with an advertising agency. I regularly study how the online advertising industry work.
I have done promotional work for the likes of CashHits, StudioTraffic, and 12dailypro during that time.
2. Can you also tell us a bit more about 144CashAds itself? How long have you been in business? Are you running this alone or are there others involved with you? Why did you start the program to begin with?
Honestly speaking I am a bit more familiar with the autosurf industry than the HYIP industry. During the last few months the surfing world has went downwards. That is why I took the surf concept and put it in a HYIP context and the result is the creation of 144CashAds. This is my first online project.
I have one assistant, Tony, who helps me by handing the online support and host management.
3. Please explain the investment plans to us in detail. What are the minimum and maximum amounts accepted into each plan? What rates of interest do you offer and how long do they run for?
Everyone will need to start in Plan 1. Once they have upgraded in Plan 1, only then will they be entitled to upgrade in Plan 2. Once they have upgraded in Plan 2, only then will they be entitled to upgrade in Plan 3. And so on. When upgrading in the next plan a member may only spend anything up to 70% of whatever he had in the previous plan. For example if you have $100 in Plan 1 then you may not have more than $70 in Plan 2 and so on.
DAILY PAYMENT Plans
Plan 1 – Earn 1% daily for 144 days (1% X 144 = 144%)+100 Credits
Plan 2 – Earn 2% daily for 72 days (2% X 72 = 144%)+200 Credits
Plan 3 – Earn 4% daily for 36 days (4% X 36 = 144%)+300 Credits
You get paid daily into your cash account.
PAYOUT ON EXPIRY Plans
Plan 4 – Earn 6% daily for 24 days (6% X 24 = 144%)+500 Credits
Plan 5 – Earn 8% daily for 18 days (8% X 18 = 144%)+800 Credits
Plan 6 – Earn 12% daily for 12 days (12% X 12 = 144%)+1000 Credits
You get paid total payout to your cash account upon expiry of the plans.
Credits can be used for purchasing banners and text ads from the members area.
Also you can purchase banners from the advertising page by following the link here. http://144cashads.com/index.php?p=advertise
Assuming that Member A upgrades the maximum allowed for his plans, then the maximum Member A’s upgrades will be:
Plan 1 $1000
Plan 2 $700 (70% of $1000)
Plan 3 $490 (70% of $700)
Plan 4 $343 (70% of $490)
Plan 5 $241 (70% of $343)
Plan 6 $169 (70% of $241)
If Member A upgrades with $1000 and only decides to upgrade $500 in Plan 2, then his/her maximum upgrade in Plan 3 will be $350 only (70% of $500). However, Member A can still upgrade in Plan 2 a further $250 (to bring his total maximum upgrade for Plan 2 to 70% of his Plan 1 upgrade). If Member A so decides to upgrade with $250 in Plan 2, then Member A is now also eligible to upgrade 70% of this $250, i.e. $175 in Plan 3. And so on all the way down to Plan 6.
After maxing out in Plans 2 to 6 and if Member A wants to upgrade further, Member A needs to have active upgrades in the previous plan.
Members can hold a maximum of 6 active upgrade units.
4. I like the plans but do you think they might be a bit complicated, especially for less experienced HYI players? Has they’re been any problems, confusion, or misunderstandings because of this?
Actually its very simple. You will simply need to study our “Detailed Explanation On How The Plans Work” page in the link here. http://144cashads.com/index.php?p=about
Most of the project runs with conventional scripts which provide the same simple plan structure. As the program progresses it will be easily understood by everyone with the help of promoters like MNO and other existing members.
5. Can you give us any statistics regarding the program? Particularly in relation to the number of members, the amounts paid in and out, and from which plans. From the plans on offer, how far are most members progressing? How many have joined all six?
Name Inflow outflow Balance
Solid Trust Pay 560.00 182.81 377.19
Alert Pay 3,609.00 1,290.79 2,318.21
PerfectMoney 97.00 117.84 -20.84
Liberty Reserve 2,037.00 778.13 1,258.87
Total Users 355
Free Users 260
Upgraded Users 95
A total of 12 members have joined all six plans and currently 9 of them are active in all six.
6. If a reader wants to join 144CashAds then what payment processors are you using? What have been the most popular?
LibertyReserve, PerfectMoney, AlertPay, and SolidTrustPay. LR are probably the most flexible and easy to exchange.
7. 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? I know that wasn’t your original host, can you tell us what happened there?
Our hosting provider is Koddos. Previously we used HushHosting, a well known hosting provider but then they suddenly stopped their service. With the help of Tony we transferred everything to Koddos. We are confident in this company and so far very satisfied with their services. Tony makes daily online backups and off line backups once or twice a day.
It is also one of the best anti-DDoS hosting companies. In some time we will add SSL certificate (though we already have SSL encryption).
8. What about your script? Who is the provider? What do you think the benefits of this script are to both the admin and the investors? Are you using SSL encryption?
Our script is the most secure and unique for our customers. Its features are very easy to operate and it was specially custom designed just for us. Features include an IP detector, it can submit missing upgrade units so there is no need to send support mail if auto upgrade doesn’t work, etc. do have the SSL option available to our members but is not forced. SSL is a great way to secure the site and protect financial information.SSL provide by http://www.positivessl.com/
9. What kind of customer support do you offer? What is the best and most efficient way to contact you if I have any questions?
A live chat feature and support contact form are available. The best way of communicating is the contact form. This ensures I can take time to look into issues and make sure that I am giving the best and most accurate information. The support operator Tony and myself are on line every day for a few hours during weekdays to provide online support.
10. 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?
This is very important and good question. Most of the members faced problems in upgrading to all 6 plans at a time because they are trying to upgrade before doing a proper study of the plan structure.
A member can hold a maximum 6 active upgrade units. So if a member purchases more than one active units in the same plan they cant get into all the plans until existing units expire. They also need to calculate the minimum amount from the first plan so they can get at least the $10 minimum into plan 6. Below is the approximate minimum value you will need if you wish to participate in all 6 plans at the same time.
To achieve that easily, you can start with, for example, the following
plans:-
Plan 1 $70
Plan 2 $49
Plan 3 $35
Plan 4 $25
Plan 5 $18
Plan 6 $13
11. You seem eager to separate yourselves from regular online HYIPs, but to tell the truth I can see very little difference. So what is the difference between you and the sites you advertise?
As I mentioned earlier I am more familiar with the autosurf than the HYIP industry. There is a huge difference in plan structures compared to others which brings us stability for a long long time. Another important feature we don’t allow you purchase more than 6 units at time, so a member can purchase a responsible maximum.
(2000 in plan 1+ 1400 in plan 2 + 980 in plan 3+ 686 in plan 4+ 481 in plan 5+ 337 in plan 6) comes to a total of $5884.
12. Tell us more about the general advertising and promotional strategies being used by 144CashAds. In a very competitive market what are you doing to bring 144CashAds to a wider investment audience?
Our advertising strategy is to move steadily towards our mission. At the moment we don’t want to spend much money on our advertising. Our main target is to pay on time and quickly respond to support requests to become very popular among investors. Those are actually our two main promotional tools. We started with promotion with the most reputable monitors, forums and blogs but this is a very slow process. In the long term members will naturally refer to other people after they trust and are impressed by our service. Also we spend a certain percentage of incoming money among good selective promoters.
13. Are there any plans to develop 144CashAds further in the near future? Will there be any interesting changes made soon? How are you planning to keep the program competitive in such difficult times?
With the good name of 144CashAds established and its fine structure there is no real need to change anything with plans. What we will do is to from time to time offer various types of gifts, and bonuses for our members which will encourage new members as well as older members to get more involved.
We are currently running an ongoing Special Bonus Offer:
You get a $10 when you have 6 active plans, one plan in each level.
To achieve that easily, you can start with, for example, the following
plans:-
Plan 1 $70
Plan 2 $49
Plan 3 $35
Plan 4 $25
Plan 5 $18
Plan 6 $13
All plans pay 144%.”
Thanks a lot to Lewies for taking the time and trouble to give such a detailed interview. Best of luck to him and Tony in running the project and if their dedicated and professional approach taken by them so far is anything to go by I’m sure we are going to be hearing a lot more from them in the coming months. More especially however, good luck to all the 144CashAds investors who decide to take a chance and sign up with them.
That’s all for the moment guys but don’t go too far. I’m going off to do a little exploring around Amsterdam for a few hours. I’ve just arrived in the apartment I’m renting here for the rest of the week and want to take advantage of what’s left of this beautiful sunny day. But I’ll be back again a little later tonight with all the days important news stories so make sure to check back a little bit later for that. See you all then!
