17/03/2013. Interview with the Admin of SphereINV

Beware! SphereINV has stopped paying! Do not invest there!

Hi everybody! Hope you’re weekends been going well for you so far. I’m a little bit busier than the usual Sunday today and have two updates for you. As is usually the way all the day’s news events will be covered in the main post this evening where I’ll also be looking at another of the recent programs to join the MNO monitor. First on my list today however is the following interview I received this morning from the admin of SphereINV. This has been an enormously popular HYIP for almost the last two weeks now and I don’t mind admitting that I was taken completely by surprise by them. When I first saw their initial offer – one single plan offering a massive 133% on expiry of a 3 day term, principal included, many people including me were skeptical if not downright dismissive. Yet here we are with SphereINV on the verge of completing a fourth cycle which by itself is quite a remarkable achievement. I wouldn’t care to predict how much longer they can keep this up, no more than I would for any other HYIP, but as I say hardly a day went by since I first started monitoring SphereINV when they failed to surprise me, so who knows? Before we get to the interview let me just remind you that if you like what the admin has to say and would like further information on the program then you can start with the original review first published on MNO here:

“1. Hi Elvira, please introduce yourself to the readers of MNO and tell us please about your own involvement in SphereINV. What is your role in the day to day running of the program?

My name is Elvira, and I am a co-admin of SphereINV. I am in charge of the majority share of daily operations of SphereINV. I am always supporting SphereINV in any capacity I can whether it be addressing a clients issue or assisting in the processing of payouts.

2. Can you give us some background information on SphereINV? How many others are involved with the program or are you operating alone? How long have you been online?

We’ve been online 11 days now paying 33% profit every 3 days. We are showing the competition how a site should be run in this industry. There are 5 other individuals apart from me that are involved in SphereINV.

3. Explain the investment plans in detail to us. What ROIs are on offer. What are the minimum and maximum amounts to invest? What payment options are you currently accepting?

We offer a simple investment plan with your principal plus profit returned after 3 days. 133% after 3 days amounts to a 33% profit margin every 3 days for an investor. You can invest anywhere from $10 to $500,000. We accept Liberty Reserve, Solid Trust Pay, EgoPay, and Perfect Money.

4. How secure is the website of SphereINV? What are you doing to protect it and members’ accounts from hackers? Are you on a dedicated server? Who is your host? What kind of anti-DDoS protection do you have?

This is probably the biggest issue that plagues the industry and administration that are not aware of the technical side. We employ a secured dedicated server from Staminus that has been hardened by our technicians. On top of this is a SSL certificate from Comodo and to top off our protection suite is BlockDOS. BlockDOS is not just for anti-ddos, but also for protection from hackers with complex filters in place that keep away all sorts of attacks such as SQL Injection.

5. What kind of script is SphereINV running off? Where did you get it, how safe is it, and why do you think this one is most beneficial for you as an admin and your members?

We run off Goldcoders, an industry standard. This is the basis of SphereINV, and provides an easy and useful experience for our users and us. It is extremely secure, but only one aspect of security. Any script will be considered not secured properly if it isn’t for server hardening from hackers and DDOS attacks.

6. Can we see any statistics regarding SphereINV? How many members have joined since the beginning and how many are active at the moment? Are you pleased with the support from the members so far? How important a role do they play in bringing in new members?

Many of our statistics are updated live on the website, as built into our script. At this very moment, there are almost 2000 members with over 1200 being active. I am very pleased by the support of the community and my team is as well. We are doing our part by rising to the top of the industry and the members are doing their part by supporting SphereINV and spreading the word.

7. How can members contact you if they have any questions or support related issues?

Our site offers a support form that we are always monitoring.

8. What have been the most common questions and problems you’ve had to deal with so far? Is there anything you wish to say here so that members can avoid having to contact you later?

One of the most common questions has been when will a withdrawal be processed? Our answer is always as our site states, we give up to 24 hours. Dependent on the time of the day that a request is submitted by a user will affect the time it takes to receive a withdrawal. Hopefully this statement will help MNO readers understand our withdrawal processing.

9. How have you been promoting SphereINV so far? What advertising strategy have you been using? How are you getting new members to join?

We have an extensive advertising budget that has been put into place since day one on all major sites and forums. This is the main key for getting new members.

10. What exactly are you doing with investors money? How are you investing it and how are you generating the profits being made to members?

Any good administration staff employs investors money in actual trading of some sort to grow investors capital and create a long and sustainable program in the industry. We do the same and are quite diversified.

11. And finally is there anything else you wish to say not covered in this interview? Also please feel free to comment on the review of your program published on MNO. If there was anything you felt was unfair, mistaken, or in any way in need of clarification then you are welcome to explain this in your own words here.

Thank you for the opportunity for giving further information to your readers about SphereINV. We have been very satisfied since day one.”

And thanks also to Elvira for taking the time and effort to complete my questions. That’s it for the moment guys, except to wish the very best of luck to the admin and of course all the SphereINV investors in the continued success of the program which I hope will be sustained for as long as possible. Like I said at the top of the page I’ll be back again later on this evening with all the day’s main news stories plus a more detailed look at another of the recent additions to the MNO monitor. So don’t go too far and see you all later!
