THIS PROGRAM HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM MY MONITORING DUE TO REPEATED SPAM ATTACKS.

PLEASE DONT INVEST THERE AS EDWARD BROWN IS A SICK PERSON AND HERE IS THE CONFIRMATION SCREENSHOTS OF HIS LATEST REPLY TAKEN FROM MY GMAIL ACCOUNT!

CLICK HERE AND HERE TO SEE THE SCREENSHOTS!

Hi everybody! As usual I hope you all had a great weekend. So we find ourselves again at the start of yet another working week. I myself have a number of things in mind for writing about on this blog for the coming week. Starting with EdwardBrownInvestments. Not exactly a common trait for HYIPs, to be named after their owner I mean, but really I suppose the name describes the program perfectly. More about that in a moment. The admin in question, (that’s Edward Brown obviously!) is probably known to some readers already because of his own online activities. He has his own blog, a twitter page, and various other things that may be of varying degrees of interest to the readers here. None of which I’m going to talk about here. Least of all his love for the Pittsburgh Steelers, lol!

But what I will discuss is his investment plans and how they can be of benefit to investors. First of all it’s not exactly a new program, which as most of you know is usually what I prefer. EdwardBrownInvestments, as an online business entity, has been running since late last year. I have long been aware of the program but never got involved before now. To be brutally honest the reason was the website wasn’t exactly up to the standards I expect from someone handling my money. No personal disrespect intended towards Edward here you understand. He knows what he is doing in terms of his investment activities, it was simply his website that needed some work. I guess it was just something of a testing period for his investments because all that has changed now. Gone is the free domain and hosting, all replaced with a much more secure registered domain and secure script. But let’s get back to that in just a moment after we see the plans first.

EdwardBrownInvestments offers a low rate of interest long term plan. To be more exact there are several variations of this plan, and your return will be based on how big your principal is. There is nothing too complicated about it though. Most readers here will I’m sure only be interested in the first option, as the cost of investing in the others is a bit high, especially when measuring that cost against the risk and the reward. But I will mention them all anyway. Maybe the King of Sweden reads this blog, lol!

First and foremost is the Silver plan. The cost of investing here is at least $20 and you can go all the way up to $499. The return is 1.3% paid daily for 125 days and your principal returned at the end.

Next is the Gold Plan, and it might interest some of you I suppose. The minimum spend in this one is $500 and the maximum is $999. As with the last plan it too runs for 125 days, returns your principal on expiry, but pays you 1.5% daily interest.

Moving up a gear now, there is the DTM Plan and the Diamond Plan. Joining these two will cost you $1000 and $5,000 respectively, so best you see the EdwardBrownInvestments homepage if you are looking for information on those. LibertyReserve is presently the only payment option available. Withdrawals are manual, and I must say that my first withdrawal was made very fast.

So they are the plans. But what of the security? Well huge strides have been made here with the admin having realized that you can’t run a serious investment program via a free domain blog. Now it’s hosted on a dedicated server from the always reliable DdoSWiz. They can be depended on to take care of any technical issues the site runs into including of course DdoS attacks. Another welcome feature is the addition of a licensed script from Waylex, in my opinion the best provider in that particular field that money can buy.

Now without wanting to get too far off topic, I just want to give a brief mention to how Waylex operates. The reason being that is that it’s only recently been re-launched after an overhaul and some new investors just won’t recognize it. When logging in the first thing you will see is a virtual on-screen keyboard where you will write your password rather than typing it in the usual manner. Always a good start in my opinion. After that you will see two buttons in the middle of the page marked “Manage balance” and “Make a deposit”. First you need to click “Manage balance” and then you will see the options to “Add funds” or “Withdraw”. The first thing you will be doing obviously is adding funds. This will open a new window where you will see your choice of payment processor (which in this case is limited to LibertyReserve) and be asked to decide the amount to invest. When you proceed you will then be brought securely to the site of your chosen payment processor to confirm the transaction. After that you are ready to deposit. You just click on the “Make a Deposit” tab and you will then see the available plans. First choose your plan and proceed. You will then be asked for an amount. Click confirm and that’s about it really. The same procedure applies to making a withdrawal.

But while I can only compliment Edward here on a slick and professional site that is well protected, I have also to mention that I do see some drawbacks, most notably in the plans themselves. For instance the minimum amounts required to join. There are four plans available and three of them are totally out of the question for over 90% of the online community who invest in HYIPs. And purely for financial reasons. But then in a market like let’s say the US or Canada where a higher number of people might actually be able to afford these plans, we find that LibertyReserve is the only payment method available. And there is no way you can put a positive spin on this but LR is simply not that popular amongst North American investors. Add to that the fact that it will take over three months to break even in the only plan most readers can realistically afford and we can see that EdwardBrownInvestments has a lot of work to do if they are to compete with what we could consider their closest rivals, other long term low ROI programs like NovalexFinance or GeniusFunds.

It’s not all negative though. Despite what I say, the admin has still kept this program alive for five months which is no mean feat in itself. It has improved tremendously in terms of quality, and I feel that with a little work, (not major surgery), the admin can make a few more adjustments and really throw this one open to a much larger audience.

Other news for today.

There were so many programs that quickly turned into scams over the last week that you must think all the HYIPs are ponzi-schemes. But is it so impossible to find a REAL program backed up by real investments and offering a realistic return on your investment? I would like to tell you that such a program exists and it’s called GoldNuggetInvest. These guys have been online for a couple of years so they know exactly how to make money and give you great profits. GoldNuggetInvest (reviewed here) came a long way from being a small private investors club to a huge program having thousands of members and backed up by arbitrage betting. By the way, the admin of GoldNuggetInvest Robert spoke about their investment activities in detail in my interview with him published here. The follow-up interview will be published on my blog soon, just before some important announcement will be made. Remember that GoldNuggetInvest is different from others so don’t treat it like any other HYIP. Of course, nobody can guarantee that your principal in GoldNuggetInvest is 100% safe but at least Robert and his team do actually generate income for investors on surebets. And GoldNuggetInvest may soon close the doors to new investors to limit the amount of deposits it can handle safely and securely. By the way, the recent addition to the GoldNuggetInvest team is Todd who is now handling all the support tickets for the members. Today he sent out a pretty detailed explanatory update where he touched on all possible issues that newbies can face when they join the program and he perfectly explained ways to solve them. Really, I agree with him that security must be a priority and all the difficulties you may meet are a consequence of this improved security which will guarantee the safety of your deposited funds against any possible hacking attempt. That is what I call proper customer support – to answer the questions in such detail and with such perseverance that few seem be able to do. So kudos to Todd who really showed that he can do a fine job as the head of the support department. This is the latest email from him and if you’re a member of GoldNuggetInvest or just are about to join please read it carefully to avoid any misunderstanding:
“Greetings Fellow GNI Investors:
As some of you know, I have joined the GNI Team specifically to help you, our cherished customers, with questions, issues and problems that you may have. I’m also here to assist Robert and the GNI Program when we sustain technical issues as well. To be sure, my priority is ALWAYS you, the client. If we didn’t have clients, we would not have to worry about technical issues; my point is our business starts and stops with our clients.
There’s a couple of issues; trends if you will, that I am noticing. I am therefore going to address this to our global community.
1. PIN Code
Folks, the PIN Code is here to stay. I don’t like it, Robert doesn’t like it, nobody likes it…. It is time consuming and requires additional effort; your frustration is understandable.
Having said that, I would rather see 50 requests asking why the PIN code isn’t working than 50 requests asking, “what happened to my account?” “Where are my funds?” So please, stop asking.
The PIN code is sensitive and requires understanding of your systems buffer and cache. There are also time constraints and parameters that must be followed if cooperation is desired between our embedded system and your computer.
Before I continue the community has to understand, there is NOTHING we can do, (no button to push or ax to grind) to force your system to accept the PIN. We will not disable this feature!! It protects the integrity of GNI as a whole.
If you are having trouble with the PIN the following steps must be taken…
1. Please be sure your browser is Mozilla (Firefox)
2. Please clear your cache. To do so, please execute the following steps….first, refresh (or reload) your browser. Then…..
a. Click on the top toolbar…”Tools”
b. Click on ….”Option”
c. Click on ….”Privacy”
d. Scroll down to the box entitled “Private Data,” and with the adjacent box DISABLED, click on “Settings.”
e. Enable the box marked “cache.” (We shall not comment on the remaining items contained within the Private Data settings window, it wouldn’t hurt to clear those out as well).
f. Click OK.
g. Refresh your browser (or reload)
h. Wait 1 minute and refresh (or reload) your browser one more time.
At this point you should be able to retry with your “Login Procedure.”
The key here folks is refreshing your browser and waiting. Your buffer has to catch up with the system. If you become frustrated, It WILL NOT work. (Believe me, I know!!)
Once you get the new PIN, give it a minute, then refresh then input into the link. If you follows these steps, you will have NO problems.
2. Verification Emails
Many of you are frustrated when you are not receiving your verification email. This situation likens that to the PIN code issue.
Clear the cache (process described above). It is also our recommendation (we don’t usually recommend, but in this case, we do) that everyone use Gmail for all of their email usage, or when dealing with us. It offers heightened security and google pours an enormous amount of resources in fraud prevention and other security measures. You will likely NOT have verification email issues.
We have found emails originating out of AOL, Yahoo, Safe-mail (yes, safe-mail), hushmail and others just don’t rise to the level of Gmail….
3. Going Private.
Many of you are asking whether GNI will be going private, to which I answer with an assured YES. When? This question is best answered by Robert, but it hinges firmly on our level of deposits. Sure-bet traders can only manage a pre-defined level of funds. It’s fast paced, requires a heck of a lot of organization and things can go wrong real fast. If I had to guess, I would say by years end the doors will be closed to new investors. We’re also looking for a more sophisticated, one who understands the nature of our business, type of investors. In my opinion, it’s very important all of you understand Arbitrage trading so that you know how your funds are being invested. Folks, we ARE NOT an HYIP. This program is real.
4. Personal contact with Robert.
Yes, Robert is accessible, but he is the key (as is Jurgen) to our success. He is the heart and soul of our operation and time is a commodity that is second to none. Investors at the $5000.00 level will have access.
5. Phone Support.
I am working with Robert on this endeavor, (as you read this) to implement phone access to our new and VIP level investor. Phone support will be offered to those investors at a pre-determined investment level. More on this will be forthcoming.
Well, that’s it for today. I encourage everyone to be patient with us. Be forewarned that I will be debiting those accounts who received duplicate payments and bonuses. The vast majority of all questions are addressed on the website. You just need to take the time to look.
I will work hard (as does Robert and Jurgen) for your investment dollars. Try to direct all your questions to the help desk. If I don’t have an answer, I have a direct line to Robert who will either take the question himself or give an answer to me and I in turn will deliver this, my goal, always within 48 hours. (This was not maintained, but we had some other issues that were pressing, we are now back on schedule.
If any of you have any outstanding questions or requests which were sent to my Goldnuggetinvest@yahoo.com email address, please forward them on to the helpdesk as we are live and ready to help.
Thank you folks and have a great week.
Todd – GNI Customer Service / Help Desk“.

Another very successful real program – SilverLodge (reviewed here) – is going to close for new registrations in a couple of days. So you have one last chance to join and enjoy the most popular bi-weekly plan which is paying 20%-25% every two weeks (this plan will be closed shortly as well). By the way, if you joined SilverLodge but haven’t deposited yet your account might get deleted once the program is private. For larger investors bonuses are still available but as the admin of SilverLodge Louise (interviewed here) noted in the latest update they will be added for a limited time only:
“Hi SilverLodgers and my Dear Members, for a very long period we have been partners, and we go to hard but now again very nice times.
I want you to recall that we close the bi-weekly investment on the 20th March 2009 for new investments.
Afterwards you cannot invest in this great investment possibility anymore, as a previous investor you will earn in this plan until your plan expires.
I like you also to memorize that we will be closed for new associates after this day as well, and if you feel to get a family member or a friend into our silverlode you have just a few days left.
So far, 2009 is the best year we were facing in our program and in our offline investments, and we like to share our profits with you.
Therefore, again for the very last time, we gave a 15% Bonus on all investments higher as $2500 and 10% on all higher as $500, if you invest amounts higher as $5000 we give you 18% on your Investment. As you all remember we allow Bank Wires for any amount higher as $1000 and for verified members, so let me know if this would be an option for you.
Dominique will structure a small little forum together with one of our partners and we will give you the link in the next few days, this forums in on invitation only and you need to inquire if you like to be a part of it, we will give you instructions once the forum is up.
To all our monitoring partners, make sure to get your downline into our SilverLodge before the 20th of March, all what join before will have 5 supplemental days to fund there accounts before we deleting members what did not invest.”

The admin of DukasFund (reviewed here) announced that they have entered their fourth month online and to celebrate this event they decided to add a 5% bonus to everybody who makes a deposit during the next 3 days:
“Hi guys ,this is Jenny Your admin for Dukas, first of all warm welcome to our all investor, It is really proud to say that we are online from last 3 months and investor has showed faith to us. We are growing moderately and we are happy with our growth. Here is good news for our investor, Next 3 days who will make deposit with company will have 5 % capital added by company. Good luck“.

As usual on Monday all the investors of AsianInvestGroup (reviewed here) get the weekly statement where the variable percentage is announced for the previous week. So the stats are the following:
“Our rates for current week are the following:
Optimized Portfolio – 8.2% weekly (+0.1)
Aggressive Portfolio – 10.6% weekly (+0.4)
Optimized Portfolio Premium (for investments of $1000 and above) – 11.2% weekly
Aggressive Portfolio Premium (for investments of $1000 and above) – 13.6% weekly“.

Unfortunately the admin of Tradirex haven’t responded to my email so I can assume that they are really gone for good this time. I remind you that there was some downtime a couple of days ago but then the admin expained this mess by the DNS issue he created himself. Then Tradirex came online and it seemed it could continue as usual. I don’t know what happened this time but it’s obvious the program will never come back now. The same fate Tradirex is sharing with 4BrothersInvestments, UCGCapital and Pioneer-Fund which all are going to Not Paying status on my monitoring page. You should be aware that the collapse of many programs were also caused by continuous problems with LibertyReserve payment processor which not every program could withstand. So maybe it’s really better to switch to PerfectMoney, lol?

I was paid today from the following programs: PanaMoney, CrazyCashSurf, SilverLodge, NovalexFinance, 10DailyIncome, ProjectSurf, EnscoOffshore, OakCash, GoldNuggetInvest, InfrastructureInv, NanoMoneyCorp, EdwardBrownInvestments (the first payment received) and StanCapital (the first payment received).

By the way I would like to introduce a new program which I joined just recently. It’s called StanCapital – the program of which the admin is probably is trying to repeat the success of InoFund (if you still remember that program which lasted successfully for 4 months). Anyway, the plans are almost identical: 1% for 3 days (with the allowed investments from $5 to $35), 1.9%-2% for 7 days (the minimum is $35 for that plan) and 2.8%-3% for 30 days (the minimum for the plan is $500). In all the plans the principal is returned on expiry. I hope these plans will help StanCapital to last as long as InoFund lasted. Anyway, the program is still new having been started only a week ago. The plans are the only thing I can compare to InoFund though. StanCapital only accepts LibertyReserve and is hosted on a dedicated server by NetServicePro. Another interesting program hosted there is AcrylicTrade which hasn’t experienced any downtime since the beginning. I believe therefore that StanCapital is protected against DDos-attacks thoroughly. Unfortunately, the script used by StanCapital is not licensed and I believe it can threaten the program’s performance. But in my opinion the plans could be quite sustainable in the long run and if everything works out smoothly then StanCapital may become a big hit. Anyway, I believe we should watch this program closely so the review of StanCapital will be published on my blog very soon. Stay tuned for that and see you on my blog tomorrow!
