THIS PROGRAM STOPPED PAYING! PLEASE DON’T INVEST!

Hi guys! Today I have another interesting interview for you. This time it is with a man called Fatmir Mediu from the port city of Saranda in Albania. By coincidence I actually spent a weekend in that very city while on a Mediterranean vacation some years ago. Anyway, Fatmir’s program is called 2008-N and it’s been running for about ten days now, with the company itself having been established in May of this year. Let’s meet him.

“1. Hi Fatmir, please introduce yourself to the readers and tell us a bit more about 2008-N. Tell us also about your experience in managing investment programs. Is this your first online venture? What are you hoping to achieve by this?

I’m Fatmir Mediu,a 38-year-old man born in Albania. Yes, I have the same name with former Albanian Minister of Defence. I also want to know why my father gave me this name.We called our company 2008-N because we want to start to share our profit to our real investors in 2008 and no end day. 2008-N is involved in the trading of Japanese and Chinese motorcycles on the European market. Actually I have poor expierence in online investments programs. My father helped me set up my Trading company in 2001. In fact,we have done a good job since now. But some months ago, our suppliers raised the price. We feel it difficult to earn as much as before from the quantity we can import at one time. We want to raise the quantity,so that we can earn more from a single product. So I need more funds. About 5 months ago, one of my friends introduced HYIPs to me. I made research myself for nearly 3 months and found that most HYIPs died very soon. I also found that I can get more funds from this kind of investments programme to enlarge my business. Finally I decided to launch 2008-N. Different with others scam sites, we actually have an offline Trading Company to get enough profits to share to our investors. I hope to see more and more smiling faces with us. I also will let you see a most successful online investments programmes at least in the next 3 years.

2. What are the plans available to investors in 2008-N? What are the minimum and maximum amounts accepted?

We offer 2 plans for investors to choose. You can earn 2.5% daily for 100 days and get principle back when it matures. If you invest more than $5001 your daily return will be 3%.Our min deposit required is $5 and no max.

3. What are the payment processors members can currently use to make a deposit? Will you be adding more in the future?

Now we mainly accept LibertyReserve and PerfectMoney. And you can also use another new E-currency called ECUmoney to invest, but you should contact me first. And we will surely add more when a popular and safe new e-currency appears in the future.

4. Online security is extremely important to our readers. How secure is 2008-N? Are you on a dedicated server? What script are you using? What measures have you taken to protect the program from hackers and DDoS attacks?

2008-N is hosted on a dedicated server and DDoS-protection is provided by BlackLotus. I think it’s quite safe. Till now our site was down only once for about 10 hours. And it is not because of being under attack, but the host provider’s server breakdown. Our script was developed by our own technical department. I think our site is safe enough. But I’m still trying to find a better DDoS-protection service. I will also be very happy if you can give me some good advice.

5. You say you have a trading company operating since 2001. What is the name of this company? How can we independently verify that it is a legitimate business entity and not just another pyramid get-rich-quick (for you) scheme? If you want people to trust you with their money, will you provide them with receipts and other documentation as proof of your activities?

I’m sorry but I can’t give you our Trading Company’s name to public because I don’t want our business partners to know the way I collect funds to enlarge our business. It’s also the reason I don’t provide our phone number. But I’ll give you a simple copy of our monthly trading report. As we announced on my homepage we’re allegedly involved in the trading of Japanese and Chinese motorcycles on the European market. So we can earn more as we last longer. Of course I can’t say forever, because no company can last forever even Microsoft. But our team and I will try our best.

6. What have you been doing to promote 2008-N so far? What kind of advertising strategy are you using? Are you satisfied with the growth of the program so far? How good has the support of the members been?

I have tried my best to promote 2008-N. We have added many famous monitors and have some long promotion plans. So far I’m satisfied with the growth of the program. And our members are the best. They have given me enough support.

7. The very concept of an Albanian HYIP is enough to scare most online investors, and the recent arrest by InterPol of Bashkim Driza will only serve to remind people of the recent scandals there. How would you like to comment on that whole affair?

I’m sorry to hear this, Paul. But I really don’t know what happened. But I think it can’t affect us. I think our investors only love good programs not and depend on the countries programs are from.

8. Christmas is fast approaching and that often poses it’s own problems for HYIPs. How do you see 2008-N getting over this and into the new year?

We have a long-term goal. So it is not at all a problem to 2008-N.

9. What would you say makes 2008-N any better than the thousands of other HYIPs online at the moment?

Just paying and paying again. I think an honest admin is always welcomed. And a paying program will finally be the best one on a certain day.

10. If you can say just one more thing to convince potential investors who are still not sure?

If I’m still alive, you can get your payments on time.

11. And finally, what is your honest opinion of my blog? Do you think it is of any real value to online investors? Would you change anything about it?

Of course Paul’s Blog is the best online money researching resource! But I just have a small suggestion,would you please add some versions in other languages to make Money-news-online really worldwide! Thank you, Paul! Thank you, dear investors!”

And there you have it. Make what you will from that and of course always feel free to do your own research before investing. But I should also tell you that at this point I for one have been paid in full so far without any complications so I don’t have any cause for complaint. As well as that the returns on offer might, at first glance, appear to be unfeasibly high. I would not agree and suggest you refer to my review, published here, to see why. All in all, I think if you invest early enough, 2008-N will see you in profit. Thanks to Fatmir for taking the time to answer and thanks most of all to you guys for reading. I’ll be back tomorrow with more news and views from the industry so stay tuned!
