17/05/08. Interview with the admin of SmartDeposit
Hi, guys! It took me some time to get this interview from Ross, the admin of SmartDeposit as he was very busy with the development of his project. I remind you that SmartDeposit is a program that pays you 2.98% daily during 60 calendar days so the plan is quite attractive and profitable for a mid-term program. I would like to emphasize again that in my review published here I mistakenly provided you with some false information about the script SmartDeposit was using. In fact the script is licensed and you can find the details in my interview with Ross below. I hope it will be of much interest to you as Ross will explain also about SmartDeposit‘s source of income and tell you more about the site in general.
“1. Please introduce yourself to my readers and tell us if you have any experience in running HYIP programs or doing any online work.
Hello, I am Ross Delavera, the owner of SmartDeposit, an online investment platform. I have experience in the online business market like e-currency savings, e-currency exchange and offshore investments. Damian Kurt, our online high yield investments consultant is taking care of most of the aspects of running a successful HYIP program.
2. What investment plan do you have? Do you think it will be sustainable for a long time?
The current investment plan is 2.98% for 60 days which means a total of 178.8% return for the investor, from which you have 100% of your initial investment and 78.8% being the total profit. The payouts are processed daily so the investors will get their funds back in just 34 days and for the rest of 26 days they’re going to just cash out the pure profit of their investment. We consider this plan completely sustainable as the returns we get from our investments allow us to pay our members’ profit. We also have a reserve fund for covering daily payments and larger withdraws or for new investments.
3. Is SmartDeposit program backed up with real investments? Do you have any additional sources of income except incoming spends from the members?
The funds that our members invest with us are reinvested in e-currency trading and offshore investments that help us generate good returns.
4. I can see that you use GoldCoders script and it says that the script is licensed. I checked GC site and it showed me that the script is unlicensed. How can you explain that?
We are not using GoldCoders Script. The software for SmartDeposit is created and maintained by Dennis over at HYIPManagerScript.com and you may check the license for it here.
5. You also told the investors that SmartDeposit‘s site has a 256-bit SSL Encryption but I couldn’t find any proof that you really use SSL on your site. Can you comment on that?
Our hosting department informed me they had to remove the SSL certificate because if any DDOS attack should start, no matter how small, it could cause a breach in the system so they decided it’s in our best interest to remove the certificate and keep the full DDOS protection in place.
6. Is the SmartDeposit website fully protected from DDoS attacks that occur quite often even with good programs nowadays? What is your hosting provider and what were the considerents that made you choose them?
Yes we’re hosted with BLCC.com hosting company. They’re monitoring our server 24h/24h and if any attacks should occur they will move us to a higher level of protection keeping our site online.
7. Why do you accept only LibertyReserve and AlterGold as your payment processors? Do you have plans to accept more payment processors in the near future?
We’ve decided to go with LibertyReserve and AlterGold only for the moment as we can transfer the funds from these processors to our online investments account and back fast and with small costs. We may look into Perfect Money and SolidTrustPay later. David is doing a report about this 2 payment processors and will let me know if it’s safe to use them.
8. What promotional strategy do you use to make SmartDeposit known to your potential investors? How many new members joined your program during the first five weeks online?
David, our hyip consultant is taking care of this. As you have already seen we have not advertised it too much these days as we’ve been focusing on generating returns and consolidating our funds. We already have investors that brought their friends on so it seems that the “word of mouth” is the best advertising campaign. Later we’ll decide if we should start any type of online or offline advertising campaign.
9. How much time do you plan to stay online? Do you have any plans for the near future?
SmartDeposit is online for 34 days already and we’ve just started. We do not have a plan for how much to stay online but we’re here for the long run. As long as we can generate profits, pay the members and also take a share of the profits for ourselves we’ll be here. If this will not going to be possible anymore we’ll pay our investors their funds back and close the fund. Right now things are going great and we’re involved in some trading with good returns that help us accumulate reserves and more investments.
10. Please tell us what differentiates SmartDeposit from similar programs. What would you like to tell to your potential investors that are reading this interview right now?
Many sites offer an appealing short-term big profit and members end up with very small or even no return at all of their investments because these are pure games. SmartDeposit is a long run investment program created with a profit strategy in mind where funds are invested in order to generate profit for the members and for us as fund brokers.
11. What is your honest opinion about my blog? Do you think it’s useful for online investors?
Honestly I’m not reading too many blogs or forums online as this it’s David’s job. I’m involved in offshore and ecurrency trading and after a full day of work I prefer to spend my time with my family and not in front of a computer screen. Thank you. Ross”
