Hi, guys! The summer is in full swing and as you might notice I’m publishing new with a bit less frequency. Well, I’m very active offline as well and trying to spend a bit more time outdoors. As I hope you are too. But I always have time for money-news-online. Anyway, summer is usually a quieter time in the Industry and less active for the online investors too. So it’s just logical that I devote my time less to the reviews now and more to news. I hope that by autumn there will be a lot more hot programs ing which I will gladly review on my blog. But for today I’m going to concentrate more on the news from the Industry and let me tell you there is a lot to report from the last 36 hours.

And I think we’ll start with SigmaTral (reviewed here). This low-ROI program has been running for over 5 weeks and is slowly getting more popular among online investors due to it’s stable daily payouts and the personality of the admin Trent himself who showed true commitment in running SigmaTral. You can read my interview with him here for more details. In the latest update from Trent among other things he mentioned something big which all investors should expect in SigmaTral within the next couple of months. Surely, I will be anticipating this with great hope and possibly it will open a new page in the HYIP industry. Anyway, read the latest update from SigmaTral to find out more:

“Well, where should I start!? The past 37 days have been astounding! We have accomplished more than any of our expectations. With having hit and passed the 1 month online mark we are growing strong and stable.
Let’s start talking about what has been going on. About two weeks ago we were offline 1 day due to some maintenance. We decided to do an inventory and make sure all members were credited in their account when they deposited and also when they withdrew. While on the maintenance, we also had the chance to get in touch with our programmer and requested him to secure our script with further security. As we grow, month by month, or even day by day, we will continue to always try to improve our services. Thanks everybody for understanding about being offline that day. If, in the future, we go down for anything, we will post the reason on the site for you to keep an understanding.
Now, just a little note I would like to make with all members in regards to AlertPay. Please only withdraw AP with any amount $1 and over. AlertPay has a minimum withdraw amount of $1. If you do withdraw under this amount, I will deny request and send back to your account. This goes for SolidTrustPay as well. LibertyReserve and PerfectMoney we accept all and any amount to be withdrawn.
We have started to see a lot more serious investors now after establishing SigmaTral. I’d like to welcome all new members since last newsletter and wish you a bright future! Thanks all members who are supporting us and continue to invest with SigmaTral. We, in 2-3 months, will be having some fantastic news and we hope all members welcome this much anticipated goal. We are working a lot offline and hope you all enjoy your offline activities too. I will let you know more about this in the near future! It will be big and give the more serious investor a big opportunity to invest with us.
We are paying out $150-250 daily and we would welcome all members to support us in any way they can. Please post your payment or comments in any of the forums.
That is all for today. If you have any questions or comments please contact me via the live support or use the support form.”

Ivy-Castle program (reviewed here) is now offering a new bonus on all subsequent deposits. The size of the bonus depends on the amount deposited. I hope this bonus plan is not another attempt to get more money before closing like what happened with many programs. Since the bonus is limited in time we will see what happens with Ivy-Castle by the end of June. If you’re interested in the rules here they are:
“We have a good news to you! We plan to start an reward plan in return for your support, the detail as follow:
A premium of 10% is paid on who made deposit from $100 to $500.
A premium of 15% is paid on who made deposit from $500 to $1000.
A premium of 20% is paid on who made deposit more than $1000.
The reward plan will close at the end of June, don’t pass up a chance like this!”

SteadyGrowthInvest (reviewed here) continues to develop and most recently the admin introduced two more languages in which the site can be read. I myself couldn’t find any button that will help me read the site in German or Russian but I guess the admin of SteadyGrowthInvest is in the process of adding them. I remind you that SteadyGrowthInvest accepts all popular payment processors and pays 105% after 2 days or 130% after 10 days. I myself got paid many times and hopefully the program will continue its steady growth after nearly 7 weeks online:
“We would like to announce that two more languages will be available at SGI – German and Russian. This includes a completely localized user interface and shortly after adding this feature – member support in these languages. So you will be able to choose between three languages to communicate with us – English, German and Russian. We truly hope this would make SGI more user friendly to our foreign investors. Additional languages are not planned yet, but might be added if there is demand.
Last, but not least, our investments develop very well and we are prepared for our steady growth.”

The admin of GlobalTraderGroup which I interviewed just last night (read the interview here) mentioned in the recent update that he had received some blackmail emails trying to extort money from him in exchange for not posting bad votes. Of course he refused to pay so GlobalTraderGroup might soon be a target for some paid posters many forums and monitors. Please be aware of that and remember that GlobalTraderGroup has been paying since January and just recently the admin added some new features to his website. I believe that his program is a promising one and definitely one to watch:
“We are receiving threats of blackmail again. We will not do what they want.
Require a payment of $ 1000 to stop the attacks, but we will not sell. They are attacking us on multiple monitors. We will never submit to such blackmail.”

The day when the first payouts on expiry should be completed is fast approaching for EarnerSurfer (reviewed here) and hopefully we will see the first payment in just a week from now. EarnerSurfer is a brand-new manual surfing program which is paying 7% for 20 days and is based on the same script AggeroInvestment used. Many investors considered this fact as the most important when deciding to join. I would add that the admin of the program Chris is also quite an interesting personality which I’m definitely going to interview once the first payments on expiry are processed. I’m sure an interview would be an interesting read. Chris keeps active on forums and in updating the members of his program regarding the current situation. He surely knows how to please the members of EarnerSurfer and in his latest update he finally announced the winners of the contest that ran for a few days. The largest investors have been now rewarded with some sweet bonuses. This and other news are in the update which you can read below:
“I just have some quick news to keep you up to date on a few things.
First off, I’d like to announce the first promo winners! We offered 3 days to the 3 largest deposits and we are glad some members took advantage of this opportunity. I have given a bonus to each of the winners based on their deposit amount and what place they came in. Here are the winners:
1st Place: ID 236 – 15% Bonus
2nd Place: ID 23 – 10% Bonus
3rd Place: ID 105 – 5% Bonus
Congratulations to all the winners! Soon, starting after payouts, we will introduce a few new contests.
Next thing I am glad to inform you on is, today marks the 15th day of being online and operating! We told you that we would raise the deposit limit on this day from $2000 to $2500 and we did so. Everything so far is outstanding and with payouts right around the corner (actually 5 days) we only see EarnerSurfer starting to get some serious attention. We have noticed many members comment on how they would like shorter plans as far as the length in days, but we started EarnerSurfer to become stable and to last as long as possible. With that said, I would almost be positive that we will not add any additional plans. Hope you all can understand that by adding something like 12% for 12 days it will only cut down the life of the program.
To finish this newsletter off, I would invite you to contact me through Yahoo Messenger. We received a few emails asking if I had one to talk and I didn’t. I have taken a little time today to register an account and now I am ready to start getting to know each and every one of you individually. You can add me anytime as you wish.
My yahoo messenger ID: “EarnerSurfer“. That’s all for today, see you in the threads! Have an enjoyable day!”

Another popular autosurf program Surfing4Roi (reviewed here) is also doing well. There is one key word we can associate with Surfing4Roi – improvement. They are always on the lookout on how to make his program even better and keep it going. The efforts of the admin of Surfing4Roi, Francesco, pay off in the end as the program is in the constant growth and after about 7 weeks online shows no signs of decline. This is what good planning and striving for constant improvement can achieve. Really, a perfect example how a program should be run for other admins to pay attention to. It’s your choice what plan in Surfing4Roi you’re going to choose but be it 8.5% for 14 days (119%), 8% for 16 days (128%) or 7.5% for 18 days (135%) you still can be sure that you’re in good hands. The recent update from Francesco is as follows:
“This will be a short but hot news today, so let’s go straight to the point.
Monthly Cashout Limit Removed
Ohh, yes! The two monthly cashout limit has now been removed.
Since our start we were bent on not changing this limit, but after the umpteenth time, exactly 21 tickets, suggesting the limit removal, we have given up and removed the limit. We consider 21 tickets a very high number, since users do not usually interact much with an admin (hate this word..lol..).
Other factor that contributed to this choice is the absence of disadvantages, particularly concerning funds management.
Thus, if you were not feeling confident to start a new cycle, as you had to wait the following month to cashout, you may now deposit lower amounts day by day, decreasing the risk, and withdrawing whenever you want.
We have written this somewhere in Surfing4Roi:
Everyone has a voice and can use it to make change.
This is just a typical example of the influence you have in Surfing4Roi. As we always say: the success of this project is determined by your willingness and ability to interact with us and suggesting new and fresh ideas or hints that may improve the quality of S4R.
Landing Page
Our landing page is a powerful way to attract new potential members. It includes few important info with the intent to convince surfers to signup.
1) The Surfing4Roi heading implies that the page talks about an autosurf;
2) The plans let surfers understand what we offer;
3) The list of features stands for ‘hey..there’s finally someone that is trying to break from traditional’;
4) The one month stamp, the number of feedbacks and our slogan definitely intrigue and stimulate surfer’s curiosity;
5) The Money-News-Online stamp does seem like an indicator of quality;
6) Signup and find out why simply invites the surfer to visit Surfing4Roi;
This is what should cross surfer’s mind. So, put your personal landing page in rotation to all autosurfs or traffic exchanges. This will allow you to maximize the chance to get new referrals and will help Surfing4Roi to grow. We believe this is most effective and easiest way to advertise in order to get more attention. Of course, this is just a first draft and we will optimize it in the next few weeks.
Your Personal Landing Page Link is: http://www.surfing-4-roi.com/landing.php?ref=245
That’s all for today! We have passed 1000 (one thousand) feedbacks and this just shows you how much potential Surfing4Roi has.”

Let’s now get to some less positive news. The once promising program TheDollarDiggers is now in Waiting status on my monitoring page. I suggest not to make any further upgrades here. The payouts are pending because of the alleged illness of the main admin. The support is currently being handled by someone who is probably not able to make the payouts for some reason. The conference call regarding the future of the program was scheduled yesterday but since then I haven’t heard from the admin at all. The main thing (the payouts) seem not to be discussed at all which is alarming in my opinion. Once again I repeat: do not invest in TheDollarDiggers until things are made clear. Here is the latest regarding the conference call for TheDollarDiggers‘ members I received yesterday:
“Here’s the first schedule for the conference call. Date: June 25, 2009 Time: 9 a.m EST Maximum participants allowed: 150 Dial-in Number: 1-219-509-8020 Participant Access Code: 611787
Go to http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc to help you convert the given time in your local timezone.
Agenda is to introduce the co- admin of TDD and to discuss future plans and changes for the betterment of TDD.
Please send an email to confirm of who can participate with this first scheduled conference.
I’m sorry i forgot to include in my earlier email that we’ll not accept any deposits to TDD Plans except of Digger 3 Stage Cycler Plan until the conference call is concluded.
As of now only the 3 Stage Cycler and the TDD Iggly Biggly Teambuild will be promoted.
More details on the conference call tomorrow.”

Another program NorthBizz has been moved to Waiting status on my monitoring page as well. I have three pending withdrawals already which they seem to have forgotten to pay me. I saw many other negative votes on the public forums so I’m not the only one. I don’t know how much (if anything) I contributed to these issues by publishing the info on their office location, or it would be better to say, the lack of the office in London in my investigation (read it here to find out more) but surely this warning sign cannot go unnoticed. To the programs admins I would like to say: if you lie to online investors at least make it more believable instead of opening fake offices on fake addresses. Hopefully it will be a good lesson for the admin of NorthBizz and other admins that think that the Contact information posted on their websites cannot be verified. Well, they are certainly wrong and more investigations from MNO will follow for other offices of online programs in the future. So please keep it in mind when opening your online investment project and stop lying, it’s just getting too obvious!

Three sites were having some accessibility problems over the course of the last few days. They are: AsianInvestGroup (reviewed here), VentureFundsGroup (reviewed here) and XagaEnterprise (reviewed here). I’m glad to report that seemingly they were just temporary issues which have now been rectified. I have the full access to the above-mentioned sites and have been paid from all of them which makes me think they are quite OK by now.

This is an important update I would like to tell you about from StrictPay payment processor. I think it will be at utmost importance to those who already hold StrictPay Debit cards as well as for those who may consider purchasing one in the near future:
“StrictPay Customers, We wanted to take a moment to remind all our customers that we now have a new StrictPay debit card that is available to all verified customers. This is not just an ATM card, but is a debit card that can be used at millions of ATMs and retailers around the world. StrictPay cardholders are able to easily manage their cash flow, and the debit card is a safe convenient alternative to carrying cash. There is no application process for approval of the StrictPay debit card, and as long as you are a verified StrictPay customer you can purchase your very own card. Having the StrictPay debit card will allow you to gain access to your money even when you are on the go, and if you can log into your StrictPay account, you can receive your funds in a timely manner.
We feel this debit card offers customers a convenient, fast, and secure addition to our withdraw options that are currently available. For more specific details about the new StrictPay debit card, please click on the following link:
https://www.strictpay.com/members/debitcardinfo.php
We also wanted to take a moment to let customers know that our Fee Schedule has also been updated. Please see the Fee Schedule page for a breakdown of all fees associated with your StrictPay account.”

And this is the info for the holders of the StrictPay cards from their last provider with whom they no longer work. You have an option to get the new debit free of charge (just paying postage). Read below on how to do it:
“StrictPay Debit Card Customers, We are happy to announce that the initial shipment of debit cards are in, and we are ready to ship them out to customers with current StrictPay debit cards, as well as customers with orders already placed. The initial order we placed was very large, so we are also ready for all upcoming orders, but we need to be sure the new debit card provider has current and accurate information for security reasons. We expect cards to be arriving in the hands of our customers within 7 to 10 business days from the day you do the following:
1 – If you already have an existing StrictPay Visa debit card, we need you to login to your StrictPay account, and you will be prompted to re-enter the order to insure that we have the correct mailing address, as well as a few other pieces of information that the new debit card provider needs (telephone number, mothers maiden name, and gender). We were going to just ship all existing cardholders the new debit cards, but we do not want to take the chance that you do not receive them. If you wish to have your card replaced with the new replacement debit card at no cost (except for whichever shipping option you choose), we need you to follow the instructions that you are given the next time you login to your StrictPay account.
2 – If you have an existing order in our system, but have not received your debit card yet, you will also be prompted to re-enter the order the next time you login to your StrictPay account. We will need you to enter the correct mailing address, as well as a few other pieces of information the card provider needs (telephone number, mothers maiden name, and gender). You will not be charged any additional funds for the new card (except for whichever shipping option you choose), as you have already paid to purchase the card previously (which saved you $5.00 off the new purchase price), and you will receive your new StrictPay Visa debit card within 7 to 10 business days as well.
We will be shipping all replacement cards (as well as current card orders) either by Worldwide First Class Mail for $2.95, or FedEx with Tracking for $49.95, and the shipping cost will need to be paid for by the customer.
Please do this as soon as possible, as we want to make sure we get your new debit card to you as soon as possible. As always, we know you have many options, and we appreciate you choosing StrictPay as your primary online payment processor“.

That is all for today. I just wanted to list the programs that paid me for the last 36 hours and that can definitely be considered as safe picks for now. They are: Treckswana, Merchandies, NanoMoneyCorp, NovalexFinance, SteadyGrowthInvest, EnscoOffshore, PanaMoney, Surfing4Roi, Ivy-Castle, InvestmentForge, InvestiMates, SigmaTral, GeniusFunds, ExcellentProfit, CoolReturn, GoldNuggetInvest, OilInsider, AsianInvestGroup, XagaEnterprise, ElegantMoney and Verifield.
