Hi again! For my second post today I’m going to give it over entirely to highlighting the major news stories from around the industry that happened over this MayDay weekend. Let’s start with some good news for the investors of ImperialFinances (reviewed here). The program entered into their fourth week online and that means that the first payouts from the 20 day plan have been processed already. My congratulations to those who already received them. But in case with ImperialFinances I have a strong feeling that three weeks in operation is only the beginning of a long and successful online journey. Just have a look at the interview which I conducted with the admin of ImperialFinances Will recently (read it here) and you will find out that this guy is really committed towards the goal of making his program one of the most successful and long-lasting programs of 2009. Will is a very proactive admin who also encourages you as a member of his program to be proactive by participating in interesting contests. Recently he was asking the members of ImperialFinances about the ideas for the next contest and someone had a really good idea of a video contest on Youtube. As you are aware Youtube is the most popular site where you can upload your videos for free and will be visible to millions of viewers around the world. So why not help your favorite program and earn some money for the next contest which was announced in the latest newsletter from ImperialFinances? Try your luck and help your program advertise in a creative way by posting your video on Youtube:

“Hello everybody, I am coming with very good news.
#1 First payouts in 20 days plan, have been already processed. Now ImperialFinances is 20 days old and keeps growing with more than 35 new members per day.
#2 Ideas contest is now over. I received a couple of nice ideas. But someone amazed me. Here is the email I received from him:
“Contest idea 2: Make a video on youtube about ImperialFinances, the best one will be choosen and win a prize.” sent by “wibboo”. His account will be credited soon.
Many members requested a tutorial about how to deposit, withdraw, use a hyip. Everytime, there are people that see for the first time a hyip. So they need a demo, a good tutorial. This is what we’ll do. Read #3.
#3 Movie maker contest: create a video tutorial, about how to use ImperialFinances. Here are some hints:
– Register process
– Deposit process
– Withdraw process
– Support request
This is what your movie should contain, and of course well explained. You have 10 days for this. We will have for this category 3 prizes: $50, $40, $30. And most important: movie must be uploaded on Youtube.com and posted on at least 1 public place (forum), then send both links to “admin@imperialfinances.com”.
Do not forget: contest ends in 10 days.”

EwoCapital (reviewed here) announced another e-currency which it started to accept from now on. It’s the very popular option of SolidTrustPay. I believe that with introduction of SolidTrustPay the program will become more popular and the potential investors of EwoCapital will have more options to invest in this program. Here is the latest update regarding this:
“Dear Customers, A new payment processor, SolidTrustPay, has been added as a funding and withdrawal option. SolidTrustPay offers the following funding options: Regular ACH, Quick ACH, Bank Wire, Check by Mail, VirtualMoney – and the following withdrawal options: Regular ACH, Bank Wire, Check by Mail. You are welcome to research this opportunity at SolidTrustPay.”

Poplans (reviewed here) raised their interest rates today and added a new plan. So starting from today the new rates being paid are: 12.75%-16.75% for 10 days, 140.42%-200.42% after 10 days, new plan: 250%-450% after 30 days. Unfortunately only one payment procesor (LibertyReserve) is accepted for now but the admin of Poplans admitted that he’s looking into implementing PerfectMoney on his site sometime soon. We will wait and see how that goes but for now you can enjoy the increased profits.

As you might have noticed DimensionalWealthFund site (reviewed here) was inaccessible for more than 24 hours. It appears the reason for that was a huge DdoS attack, protection from which the admin said was stupid to spend the money on in my interview with him (published here). It appears the site has come back online at the moment of writing so I was able to make a withdrawal and am now waiting for my payment to be processed. DimensionalWealthFund is still in Waiting status on my monitoring page but as soon as I get paid it will be returned to Paying status.

The site of a popular program AsianInvestGroup (reviewed here) is offline for more than 24 hours already. The admin updated the members yesterday though providing them with the alternative link to access the website. At the moment of writing the site of AsianInvestGroup was inaccessible for me on both URLs. Since AsianInvestGroup is a weekly paying program I will give the admin some time to rectify the situation but I have put his program to Waiting status on my monitoring page already until everything is fixed. Here is the latest update regarding AsianInvestGroup‘s downtime:
“Dear clients, Due to technical problems you may experience difficulties with accessing the site via AsianInvestGroup. In this case please use http://72.20.14.55 It should work fine. Sorry for inconvenience.”

There was some important news yesterday for all the members of SolidTrustPay. It seems that payment processor is a way ahead of their competitors and starting from May 15th obtaining a TrustCard will be a must for every member of the processor dealing with bank transfers or credit card transactions. It was made to ensure the highest level of security for SolidTrustPay members and make sure that no unauthorized transaction can be made through your account. There is no need to purchase the TrustCard for STP debit card holders but you’re welcome to do it if you want to increase the security level of your account. The reasons of implementing TrustCard and a guide of how it’s done have been given to all the holders of SolidTrustPay accounts in the most recent email from them. If you haven’t received it here is that email for your consideration:
“Big Things are Happening at SolidTrust Pay!!
STPay will soon be announcing a New Script, New Look and Advanced Security!
One of the biggest changes is the introduction of the TrustCard – a revolutionary new idea to eliminate fraud and identity theft! The TrustCard contains three secret codes, giving the cardholder exceptional security and protection when using their account. The card is anonymous – no username, personal name or any other identifying information is listed. If lost or stolen, it is completely useless to the finder.
A TrustCard purchase will be mandatory for ALL members wishing to use bank accounts and/or credit /debit cards starting 15 May 2009.
TrustCard Security Benefits
Identification Code: this word will be used to identify you to our Customer Support Representatives over the phone. This code is never transmitted via the internet, so it is impossible for anyone other than the true member to get information about their account.
Payments Code: this code will be required to process all Direct Bank and Credit/Debit Card transactions. As the code will never be e-mailed or made electronically available, only the true owner of an account has access to these sensitive payment types. Successful VISA and MasterCard transactions will be confirmed instantly, giving you immediate access to your funds!
Password Code: this code will allow you to change your secondary password at anytime to whatever you want! Members without a TrustCard will have to wait 24 hours and answer security questions in order to have a computer generated secondary
password emailed to them.
Equally as important as the secure information on the card is the method of delivery. The TrustCard will be shipped to members via Registered Mail or Courier. This adds a new level of address verification and eliminates identity theft criminals from sending in stolen or falsified identification documents.
Please visit the FAQs for answers to many of your questions. The STPay TrustCard – putting YOU in control!”

For the last 48 hours I was paid from the following programs: ImperialFinances, GoldNuggetInvest, PrismoFunds, EwoCapital, NovalexFinance, DamexTrade, CascoFunds, OakCash, EnscoOffshore, FlowBroker, GearsOfProfit, NanoMoneyCorp, Poplans, MajorBarter, GeniusFunds, FinancialProfitsCorp and NorthBizz. SilverLodge site announced recently that they would not be processing withdrawals on Saturdays and Sundays so I expect the next withdrawals to be processed tomorrow.

I have joined one more program today which I think could become one of my favorites soon. It’s called HighRiseFinance and is offering quite a low rate plan of 2.2%-3% fixed daily for 40 calendar days. The minimum to deposit in HighRiseFinance is $15 and LibertyReserve and PerfectMoney are accepted as payment processors. Although you will not be break-even before your principal expires (for the lowest paying plan) your profit will start from 188% including your principal which is not so bad after just 40 days. But the most important advantage HighRiseFinance is offering to its investors is the possibility to withdraw your principal anytime you want even before your 40 days term expires (with a 20% fee applied). HighRiseFinance just launched yesterday so I think there is a good chance to be in profit from them especially considering the fact that they are DdoS-protected and hosted by BlockDos – the leading provider for top-notch website protection. The site is being run on a licensed GoldCoders script so I don’t expect any unpleasant surprises from the script either. They listed a phone number and an address in the USA but I would advise you to be skeptical about that as like we all know HYIPs are illegal in the US. The more seasoned investors will understand my point of view that HighRiseFinance should be treated as another HYIP and nothing more which means high-risk/high-profitability ratio for your investments.

That is all for today! Tomorrow it will be a bank holiday in the UK but it won’t top me from posting on my blog and sending updates to my email subscribers. So stay tuned and check out my blog often!
