Hi, guys! As you might know the LR saga is ongoing. For more than 2 days LibertyReserve is more down than up. For instance, today it was up for an hour but then down again the whole day long. Apparently the DDOS-attack is extremely powerful and here’s the last update from LR blog regarding the current situation: “Liberty Reserve is still under a DDoS attack. This attack is so massive that our defense system has shut down the link to protect the other parts of the system. We battle DDoS attacks almost on a daily basis. Our system has proven to be successful in stopping 95% of these attacks. Our technical team is working double shifts to stop this attack. We are also working on implementing a third party DDoS mitigation protection to handle any future DDoS attacks. Please be patient and allow us to continue working on the solution to this problem“. What can I say? The situation is worse than I thought it would be. But what can we do except to wait and hope for the best?
Many programs have implemented appropriate measures today in order to survive. And in my opinion it’s better to make some necessary adjustments today then go down tomorrow. For instance, FastProfitPro‘s admin Dave decided to declare today the “blackout day” and published an update on forums regarding this: “I do think this is the best time to do the blackout day, so as of this moment, all current upgrades will expire a day later. This is for both LR and STP current upgrades“. So there will be no daily ROI today and even if you usually deposit via STP I would hold back on re-depositing for a while until the situation with LR is clear. Moreover, with current increasing DDOS-attacks on both his sites Dave had to temporarily strengthen his anti-DDOS protection so both FPP and BPP can be unstable for some time. Please take it into consideration when trying to get access to the sites.
Another solution during LR downtime for a program (and for an individual too) can be opening an account in a different e-currency such as SolidTrustPay or AlertPay. At least they don’t have downtimes and will allow the running of any program smoothly and without any hiccups. But for many of us it can take too long to obtain verification from them. Though it’s strange why Adiz, the admin of BlessingGlobeFund didn’t get verified yet it’s obviously made him take the exact same steps as Dave did – to announce a “no earnings” day today. Here’s the latest update from him:
“Our main payment processor, Liberty Reserve, has been and is still experiencing very intense DDoS attack.
Apparently BGF was also under attack last night and we are still not in the clear yet. Hence, I ask for your understanding and patience if site is down because we are upgrading to higher security our host.
With LR downtime, incoming funds are hampered. So a decision has been that today’s earnings will not be credited as we depend on incoming and outgoing funds.
However, I will process withdrawals as soon as LR is back.
I have actually arranged STP as our other payment processor and it is now awaiting for the documents to be verified.
BGF will be here to stay and it’s not going anywhere.
We are just going through a rough start due to downtime of LR.
Your support and understanding at this time is crucial as I assure BGF will be stronger than ever once we get through this.
Hence, I ask for your understanding and patience if site is down because we are upgrading to higher security with our host“.
Good news for me today. I have received my first payout from QXLsurf and have already re-upgraded. I can highly recommend this program to you as its admin Jeff seems to be an experienced and honest guy (see the interview). Just take into account that there’s 3% deposit fee and 50/50 rule applied on all cashouts over $100. So to bypass this rule I would suggest you to upgrade $80 maximum so you would not be subject to this 50/50 rule.
My first upgrade has expired in PSTraffic today and is into pending status. I know that many members are getting paid already and patiently waiting for my turn. As soon as I get it I’m going to dedicate the whole article to the strategy I use in PSTraffic. The latest update from Jamie:
“Payments are underway! If you have received payment, whether it’s referral commissions or from an expired ad pack, kindly vote and post in the forums and monitors.
PSTraffic is not a high ROA site. PSTraffic‘s model is designed to lower members risks while earning and geared more towards stability. We have all learned that high ROA sites also come with very high risks. I have learned from that and have improved PST’s business model based on my experience.
Yes, everyone loves high ROA sites (the last popular high ROA site barely lasted over 2 months) but then again I prefer my site to steer towards stability and I also want members to join who want stability not only in PSTraffic but also in the entire industry“.
I completely agree with Jamie and wish there were more stable and well thought-out sites like PSTraffic in the industry. Of course, I wish him all the best and waiting for my first payment.
That’s all the news today and I just hope that tomorrow will be a better day! See you then!
