02/11/08. MegaWar Declared and Other News

Hi, guys! Well its just been a bumper couple of days for news recently so today’s post will be given over entirely to current events in the HYIP and autosurf industry.

Let’s start with MegaLido. The program is top of the pile in the autosurf world as always despite some naysayers who complained that the payouts not being processed quite as fast as before. Guys, please do NOT complain if your payouts are still within the 48 hour timeframe. Michael, the admin of MegaLido (read my interview with him here) is handling all the payouts by himself and you should really be grateful that he’s still paying within 48 hours at all although not within minutes as occasionally happened before. Consider that with more than 18,000 members (!!!) the 48-hours timeframe for payouts is still a great feature and I really think Michael should consider expanding this timeframe to 5 days as he promised to consider in one of his previous updates. Anyway, here’s the latest update from him dedicated to payout issues:
“There has been a lot of fuss on forums about payouts and I want to let you know I am strictly following the website terms, that say they will be paid within 48 hours, some people get faster, some don’t, that is controlled by the website script, not me.
I apologize to the ones who understand the entire procedure, but for those who don’t, I want you to understand that I am a human, just like you and I have a life outside the internet, just like you. The last two weeks were the busiest weeks I have ever had on my life, not with things related to MegaLido, but with my personal life, so please understand that and think about it before writing things you know that are not true.
I’m now completely recovered from those two weeks and things will go smoother, I have never been so focused on MegaLido before and my intentions for it are the best you can imagine. Our new support ticket system will be ready very soon and there will be a lot of people working on that, so that problems will be solved much faster.
I hope you are all enjoying your holidays and weekends, that is a very important thing, we all need to relax sometimes, so just do it. I appreciate the continued support from most of you, thanks so much for being a part of this project, you are all being gifted.”

By the way, do you know that MegaLido declared a war? I bet you’ve heard about this from Michael’s updates but if not I encourage you to participate in this new exciting contest that will last till November 11 and where there will be 100 winners. Here is the announcement about this new Mega War contest:
“As you were all expecting, we have now launched our new contest. It’s called Mega Contest 3 – Mega War. We have declared a war against all the autosurf scams out there and we want you to join us.
The prizes are divided in six categories and you can earn one of them by referring new members to the program, by helping members on forums, by sending us a review or testimonial about MegaLido, by setting up an earning strategy (you don’t need to apply it) and let us know that and by using your creativity to show MegaLido to other members.
There will be a total of 100 winners, the contest is officially opened and it will run until 2008-11-11. I hope you will all participate, as there are great chances for all of you to win a prize. Remember that the use of incentives is allowed, as long as you do not spam or you use any other illegal ways of promotion.
You can check the detailed information about it on our website.
Also, do not forget we are offering a 6% bonus on all the upgrades made with StrictPay, this bonus will be offered until November 20th.
I appreciate your continued support, thanks for being a part of MegaLido and good luck on the contest, I hope you enjoy it.”
By the way, I currently prefer to upgrade via StrictPay, the new payment processor which I featured just recently (read the interview here). As promised, Michael already credited my account with a 6% bonus after upgrading my account in MegaLido through StrictPay.

If you don’t know yet what MegaLido is and how it works I strongly encourage you to read my detailed article published here. There you will see how typical autosurfs work and about MegaLido‘s distinctive features. Using this guide you will be able to earn some good money from this amazing program. Honestly, MegaLido is simply great and I will not stop saying this again and again. And if you just want to participate in the new contest Mega War it’s still great because you will be able to receive these astonishing prizes (I remind you that the 100 winners will be announced after November, 11 so you still have plenty of time to win):
“The rewards are divided in six categories, they are:
I – First Class Leaders
The 5 members who refer the biggest number of people to join MegaLido will get the top five prizes. You are free to use incentives and cash-backs, use your imagination and get as many referrals as you can. The prizes are:

IV – The I.T of the War
Great minds are needed on every war and it is important to set up strategies. Members who develop an investing strategy to maximize their earnings will e-mail me at the end of the contest and the best 10 strategies will be rewarded with $15 in cash sent to any e-currency of their choice. You don’t need to apply this strategy, just create it.

The war has just started, set up your goals and fight for them. There are 100 prizes to be won and you can have one of them.”

The admin of AggeroInvestment Roger (read my interview with him here) sent out another weekly newsletter to the members last Friday where he was as detailed as always and reported on some exciting features that were implemented during the last week. All members of AggeroInvestment or anybody interested in joining it (it pays 8.5% for 15 days) should read this update carefully. It’s the last chance for newcomers to join AggeroInvestment before it becomes private at the end of November so don’t miss the opportunity to join the second best autosurf program now. Here’s the newsletter from Roger:
“It’s time again for another weekly newsletter. I won’t be discussing any significant topic in here that most of you don’t already know. It will serve as just a reminder of what’s going on and a few updates on our site.
1) RUSSIAN translation is added. Me and my programmer really find it cool to use Russian text on our site. You should see it.
2) I added a new tab on the main menu called ‘Contests’. It is self-explanatory. Check it out!
3) ALL 10% Bonus are given away as part of our 2nd month anniversary promo. Congratulations to all the members who won! You are really lucky to be one as our membership is growing quite nicely the past week. To the others who were unfortunate, better luck next time. We are going to award it to 15 winners on our 3rd month anniversary.
4) THE ‘BEST OF THE BEST!’ Contest is still ongoing! You have one more week to be the best against the rest. So far, we have 3 members who maxed-out their accounts already since we started the contest. Each one of them will receive a cool $50 on their payment processors as prize. It will be awarded together with the other categories on Nov. 10th.
5) OUR privatization on Nov. 27th is getting a lot of buzz! It is ON! We are going to do it because I care for each and everyone of you.
6) I thought of giving you all a few stats about our site:
– As of Oct. 31st 10:20 AM, we have 638 members
– We have 3 maxed-out members, all of them use SolidTrustPay as main processor
– Our top 5 referrers are: money-news (188), alyery (17), carolina21 (12), exist1 (12) & frabi5 (10)
– Last payout made was for $870 to member pjowhal using LibertyReserve
7) Speaking of LibertyReserve, there has been some people who are trying to get into our account by hacking the autopay feature. Good thing I back up all our funds every night to another account and just leave enough funds on the main one for small payouts. I have two options now, (a) continue using the autopay feature but some big requests will have to be queued for payment manually. OR (b) disable autopay completely and I will pay ALL requests manually within 24 hours like STP and AlertPay, usually just within a few hours as I see it. StrictPay will remain autopay. Please reply with your comments and suggestions or talk about it on our public forums threads.
8 ) All payments are PAID and ON TIME. So far, never there was any wait of more than 6 hours (yeah, that’s how much I sleep now). And I plan to continue that to make you all happy and content.
9) I’ve mentioned this before, I would just like to remind you again. Christmas is fast approaching, many new programs will come and scam. Scammers would want a quick buck. There are programs out there that are established already. Just stay with the sure shot ones and be smart when investing.
Thank you and you all have an awesome weekend! Spend lots of time with your family.”

Many autosurf programs are running some contests with the similar rules but to compete with the big boys like MegaLido you need to be original. The copy-cats are not in fashion anymore and if you want to be on top you have to come up with something more original than just another contest. It seems that the admin of FastProfitSurf (read my interview with him here) realizes that better than anyone else. That’s why he asked for help from the program’s members to help him out with ideas and suggestions for future contests. I think it’s a very smart move and you should know that the most creative members will be rewarded. Here’s the latest update from FastProfitSurf regarding the coming contest:
“Hello everyone! It’s my pleasure to introduce to you the new contest “….contest!”
What is that you may ask? Well let me explain.
We at FPS were trying to come up with the best and most original contest for our members. One that everyone had a chance to win. Unfortunately we hit a snag and couldn’t come up with one.
We thought to ourselves, who better to do this for us then the members themselves.
So here it is: We want you to submit to us your best ideas for a referral contest. We will pick the top 3 best original ideas and each of these members will win 100$ cash.
In addition to that the best submitted contests ideas will immediately be launched for our members to enjoy!
This new contest-contest will last 3 days so get your entries in right away. Send your best ideas to paul.bernudez@gmail.com
This should be a lot of fun and will hopefully solve our dilemma!
I’ve already started to get some ideas from you for this new contest which is great and I can’t thank you enough for such a fast and positive response to this. However, I’d like to make one thing clear: this is a contest for the most ORIGINAL idea of contest, which means it should have never been done before. I don’t need you to keep sending me ideas which have been used on other sites. I need something that hasn’t been done before….something very original. I hope this clear things for you. Also free members are allowed to participate as well as upgrade members, so everybody has a chance to win. Thank you.”

Other autosurfs from my list are also doing well at the moment. Take SurfExchange for example. The program already has about 1400 members and continues to grow at a brisk pace. Finally, the program justifies its name as the admin just added another useful feature similar to what MegaLido has. Using this feature you can exchange your funds from one e-currency to another within your member’s area. Unfortunately, I didn’t find the rates of exchange, but the admin, Joe, (read my interview with him here) promised that the fees would be modest enough. Here is the latest update from SurfExchange full of bold new plans and features:
“Yesterday, we installed exchanger script so that you can exchange from one payment processor to another. This is definitely a sign of growth. You can now make exchange speedily. Our fees are very moderate and hope you will find it useful. Today, we will also start to upload daily payment proof for your confirmation. So far, all members have been very happy with our service and we intend to introduce more.
We are working with a company to introduce Visa debit card for your convenience. With this card, you can withdraw directly from any visa card ATM machine world wide without having to pass through any exchanger company. This will be announced in due course.
Also, members count stat have been added to our homepage and you can see that site is growing speedily.
All payments have been fulfilled today and I guess everyone have been paid. Please contact us directly with our YIM if you have any problem and it will be instantly solved.
Jumbo contest is working smoothly since we announced this and i am proud to say winners are already emerging. Winners will be announced when contest end. Over $2000 to be won.
Please ensure you leave us your comments, suggestions and post everywhere possible. Advertise your back office and be a part of this jumbo contest.”

Frogress autosurf (read my review here) is also growing well and it numbers some 400 members already. And if you consider that the first payouts on expiry are not due to be processed for another couple of days, you realize that the growth is quite good for this 12% for 12 days auosurf. The admin, Jake, recently announced that StrictPay would be added as another payment processor within the next couple of days so if you use StrictPay as your prefered payment processor you will have another reason to sign-up with Frogress. I will update you on my blog when this happens.

Let’s talk about HYIPs now. The most exciting update over the last few days came from MutualForexFund (read my interview with the admin here for more details). From this update I found out that today is the last day that you can deposit in the Manifesto plan and get 10% pure profit after 10 days. Also PerfectMoney referral contest is on the way and there are some jobs available for those who would like to represent MutualForexFund in their own countries. But let’s have a closer look at the latest update sent out to members:
“We have been working around the clock to ensure everything is running efficiently. I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every member for making MutualForexFund one of the hottest programs in the industry.
1. PerfectMoney Contest
Last week we’ve been approached by PerfectMoney, who wants to sponsor a contest on our site. As we’re very pleased with their services so far we accept their proposal and decided to launch a referral contest on MutualForexFund.
The contest will last from November 1 until 15th November 23:00 EST.
You need to refer people that will deposit in to MutualForexFund using PerfectMoney Payment Processor. Only active referrals are counted (active = they must have an active investment with PerfectMoney). Everyone is allowed to participate, including blogs and monitoring programs. You may use referral and cashback offers. Please do them honestly. If we receive complaints from members, we will change their upline. The member that will have most active referrals that deposited in MutualForexFund using PerfectMoney since November 1 will win.
The prizes are:
1st place: $200
2nd place: $100
So you can win $200 in CASH just for advertising MutualForexFund to your friends. Winners will be announced on November 16.
2. Manifesto Plan
Effectively on November 3 (Monday) we’ll not allow new deposits on MANIFESTO Plan. Current deposits are not affected. Main reason for releasing this plan was to promote our services among online investors and it is supported by our advertising budget. This plan was available for one month and a half but we decided it is not necessary anymore as we get new investors every day that are more interested in our trading supported plans (STANDARD, PREMIUM, VIP) and FOREX training.
3. Available Jobs
We’re looking for individuals or companies that are interested to promote and represent our Services in their country of residence. If you are interested in these positions please send us your resume. You can find more details on the jobs page.
Everything is going as expected and we would like to say thanks again for all your support. Sincerely, Martin Fanning“.

Another exciting update came from the admin of SummitReserve. I remind you that recently the main site of SummitReserve was under severe DDoS-attack which made the admin implement some additional security measures. Now with several mirror sites online hosted on different providers I hope there will be nothing that can interrupt the site running smoothly. More good news was the complete redesign of the website which was finished recently and the results are looking great. It was actually the admin’s response to my critisism regarding the design of his site which I gave in my review of SummitReserve published here. Also the minimum to invest in the Starter plan (112%-118% after 7 days) was raised to $20 and there was two-way referral commissions implemented for the duration of November. So from now on you will be able to get 5% bonus if you deposit under somebody (I suggest using my ref link, lol). All the details can be read in the latest newsletter that was sent to all SummitReserve members:
“Despite previous problems appeared and DDOS attempts to harm our website, the precautionary measures were undertaken and undoubtedly pointed to our professionalism. We feel happy and honored in overcoming all difficulties and continue to offer you exciting new opportunities.
In this November Monthly News we like to inform you several updates of our project:
– We have re-designed our website in order to make it more convenient and customer-friendly. more banners also been added.
– The promotional $10 minimum deposit has passed. Start from today November 1st, the minimum deposit has increased to $20.
– We like to introduce you our new Two-Way commission bonus. With this Two-Way commission bonus both you and your referral will get 5% commission soon after you made deposit on any of our investment plan. As it name, the Two-Way commission bonus will only works if you fill your upline account on referral column on deposit form. Remember you can not refer yourself! There will be penalty to investor who try to abuse our commission bonus. This new promotional bonus will last for the whole month of November.
We welcome your comments and any question you have regarding our new updates. Please do not hesitate to contact us. Sincerely, Clark Jefferson“.

Another weekly update from W-MTFund (read my review here) came with the usual weekly stats and two welcome news stories: they added PerfectMoney as another payment processor and also said that some exciting contest for all the members of W-MTFund would be announced next week. Here is this update from the administration of W-MTFund:
“We are pleased to inform you that the interest rates and the refcom have been updated.
A) Weekly interest rate from Mon, Nov. 2 to Sun, Nov. 9: +0.72%
– MT Basic: 11.00% (=2.20% daily x 5 business days)
– MT Standard: 11.50% (=2.30% daily x 5 business days)
– MT Silver: 12.00% (=2.40% daily x 5 business days)
– MT Gold: 13.00% (=2.60% daily x 5 business days)
B) Average weekly rate: – last 4 weeks: 9.46% – last 26 weeks: 8.74%
C) Referral commission: +0.25% – Current referral commission: 6.50%
Notice #1:
PERFECT MONEY added to our accepted e-Currencies.
Notice #2:
Due to the success of our program and the constantly increasing number of members and visitors, W-MTFund is planning to allow advertising on its website (125×125 and 468×60 baners): this new business is intended to strengthen our multi-trade strategy, in order to give our client the stablest investment opportunity in this market. We start accepting orders and reservations now. Please, contact us if you are interested.
Notice #3:
W-MT CONTEST: coming next week! It will be amazing, stay tuned!”

The admin of SilverInvest Louise (read my interview with him here) also announced the weekly rate for the members of his program. So this week the profit was 6.3% from the weekly plan. It was also decided by the admin that SilverInvest program would go private and you can only sign-up using the invitations and not referral links anymore. So if you like SilverInvest program and would like to deposit there please contact me at abramsonp@gmail.com for your personal invitation code to join SilverInvest. Remember that once joining the program you should make your first investment within the first 24 hours otherwise your account will be deleted. So think carefully before asking me for an invitation code because as an inactive member you will be deleted from the system and it will be harder for you to sign-up a second time.

For the last two days I joined three programs which I will review on my blog next week. The first and the most interesting one in my opinion is URInvest. The program is paying for more than two months already and offering a couple of a very attractive plans. The minimum to deposit in the first daily plan of URInvest is $5 and you can earn from 4% to 6.5% every business day. The duration of the daily plan is 30 business days and the principal is not returned at the end of your investment term. The second plan will pay you 150%-160% after 30 calendar days. The amount you can deposit in the plan on expiry is limited to $249 to stabilize the program. URInvest runs on a server with necessary DDoS-protection and utilizes GoldCoders licensed script. I will review URInvest program very soon and you will be able to read the full detailed review of the program later this week. But even now I have already placed it in my Top Recommended programs list as I find URInvest a great pick for the investors.

By the way, I have already received my first payouts from URInvest and they all were on time and processed very fast after making the request. The admin of the program recently started to send out weekly newsletters to the members. Here’s the first one:
“With this email, we are beginning our weekly newsletter updates.
For the past two months, our program has been a great success, as more and more members are joining our program.
In an effort for greater program flexibility, URInvest will be shortly introducing the digital currency exchange capabilities, enabling users to withdraw and exchange their funds from within their accounts.
CURRENTLY, wire withdrawal option is already available to those program users, who are expecting to withdraw over $500. To request payouts via wire transfer, users may submit support request.”

Another program I joined yesterday is WSSavior. The program is simply great: dedicated DDoS-protected server, 256-SSL Certificate for secure transactions, extremely professional layout and a great design with a completely customized script implemented. The returns WSSavior are also reasonable at 2.3%-3.3% daily (depending on your deposited amount) and you can withdraw your profit daily within a 90 day period. After 90 days your principal will be returned to you. WSSavior accepts LibertyReserve and PerfectMoney and the minimum to invest is only $10. I already tried to withdraw once and the money was on my LR account instantly. So far WSSavior is looking great and I advise you to take a closer look at it. A review of WSSavior will also be published on my blog during the week.

Finally, some of my readers asked my opinion about Youmilex program and I decided to include to my monitoring list. The program has been running for 13 days already so the first payouts have already been have been made. Youmilex is paying 125% after 10 days and is based on an autosurf Neversay script. Although there is no surfing involved and it’s just a regular HYIP, Youmilex can boast a variety of e-currencies being accepted: LibertyReserve, PerfectMoney, SolidTrustPay and AlertPay. The deposits are made in units divisible by $5 and the maximum to deposit is set at $1,000. You can promote Youmilex and receive credits which can be exchanged into cash in proportion of 1000 unique views of your referral link = $1. As far as I can see the admin of Youmilex is also quite active on forums and you can ask him any question there or use the contact form on the site. So I’ll also write a more detailed review of Youmilex later in the week.

I had to put LibertyFunds and FxSlaughter to “Not Paying” status on my monitoring page. The two programs just stopped paying and there was no explanation offered by them for it. As for others I’m still getting paid on-time and for the last couple of days I was paid by the following programs: MegaLido, ResidualForexIncome, Commoditex, MutualForexFund, SummitReserve, FastProfitSurf, InoFund, AggeroInvestment, SafeAtom, W-MTFund, Frogress, GoldNuggetInvest, NoRiskInvestment, SilverInvest, TopProfitWorld, BlueBorgartFunds, VolcanoInvest, ANOI, HermisCapital, MaxShare, URInvest (the first payout), MajorBarter (the first payout) and WSSavior (the first payout). I’ll see you tomorrow, guys, with another review and plenty of news and updates as usual!
