Hi everyone! I have added a fairly wide variety of investment programs to my monitoring list recently and one of the longer term low rate of interest ones is called EmperorFunds. They’ve only been online for about the last two weeks or so therefore it’s ok to consider them as pretty much brand new. There’s a couple of interesting plans on offer, mostly very long term (as long as 210 days in one case) but there is one shorter term one that be of interest to small investors. Just remember that the plans run for calendar days but only pay on business days, which is from Monday through Friday.

The first of four plans available from EmperorFunds is called The Novice Plan and it runs for 30 calendar days. It’s a bit more of a test plan really (compared to the others that is) but if you are a smaller HYIP player then it’s not bad. Deposits start at a minimum of $10 and go to a maximum of $100. There is a daily return of 1% interest per business day and at the end of the term your principal will be returned.

For something a little more substantial there is The Advance Plan. The minimum investment here is still $10 so it’s still affordable to smaller players. The maximum investment is $1000. The plan runs for 90 calendar days during which EmperorFunds offer you 1.2% interest per business day.

It gets a bit more serious with The Expert Plan. This one runs for 150 calendar days and the minimum spend goes up to $100. The maximum is $10,000. If you join you can expect a daily payment of 1.4% interest per business day.

And the last plan from EmperorFunds is called The Elite Plan. It runs for 210 calendar days but with a $500 minimum spend it’s certainly expensive but not outrageously so. The plan offers a daily interest payment of 1.6% which would see you break even no matter what else happens after 63 business days and your principal is then returned. Now at 210 days, which is nearly seven months, and in the current climate of big name closures, a lot of you will be (justifiably) wondering if EmperorFunds can really last that long. Just remember that it only takes 63 business days to break even (which is just over 12 weeks) so that’s the only thing you really need to watch for here. Everything after that is a bonus.

The choice of payment processors is average enough. Not bad, and not great. LibertyReserve, PerfectMoney, and StrictPay are the only ones accepted at this point. On the plus side however bank wires are also accepted but this is only open to the serious players. $2000 is the minimum to deposit through that method. Payments need to be requested and despite the fact that they are typically very quick you are still asked to allow the admin up to 24 hours to process them.

The security of EmperorFunds is up to a standard higher than the average HYIP. The first thing I noticed was the SSL encryption provided by Comodo for a little extra protection of your account. The script is licensed from GoldCoders and the hosting provider is Koddos. They are keeping the website on a dedicated Staminus server and protecting it from DDoS attacks. Customer support from the admin is provided by the online ticketing system as well as Live Chat. Live Chat is not a 24 hour service by the way.

Overall it’s quite a professional looking layout and not a bad program at all. Texts are original which if nothing else at least indicates a little extra effort from the admin. ForEx is the line of business they claim to be working on but just like every other online HYIP out there no proof and no back up of any of this is offered. Plus the fact that you are not invited to a face to face meeting (no matter where you live) with anyone involved with EmperorFunds before handing over the money. So continue to approach this as an online gamble and a game and treat it like a bet.

But once you are comfortable with that then as online HYIPs go EmperorFunds has potential. No guarantees, but potential. Live Chat support, secure website, good design, and profitable but sustainable plans. In the right hands it could go a long way, but then I guess that’s where the gamble comes into play.

OTHER NEWS FOR TODAY.

First of all I would like to note that since yesterday three more programs have been moved to Waiting status on MNO. They are CurrencyBasics, UmaxFunds and DepositPalace. As for the last two I have been told about selective payouts and had to move them to Paying selectively status last night which was then changed to Waiting. CurrencyBasics is listed as Problem on Goldpoll and I also noticed that the instant withdrawals have been switched off and now even small cashouts are pending. CurrencyBasics is surely on the way out now so I would strongly advise not to make any additional deposits there. The admin of the program wanted to buy a banner on my blog last night but he really insisted that the banner was placed on the same date of purchase which made me think that CurrencyBasics had some cashflow issues and apparently I was right judging by the pending withdrawals and problem status on some monitors.

Another program XagaEnterprise has been moved from Waiting to Not Paying status and rightly so as the admin broke his promise to pay everybody today. Only the smallest payouts were processed. I myself was paid the smallest payout to StrictPay while the five larger ones are still pending. The admin of XagaEnterprise keeps feeding his members with one bad excuse after another and he probably thinks that everybody except him is a fool, such a smart guy. All the investors got the hidden message from the last update from the admin Kevin which screams: I’m a scammer and I urgently need your money to scam faster. Such a silly email simply cannot be taken seriously and just showed the true colors of this guy and XagaEnterprise is in Not Paying status on MNO just as I predicted a few days ago when the payouts suddenly stopped. Of course, it’s not recommended to invest in XagaEnteprise as it’s a confirmed scam now. Just for your amusement here is the latest update from the admin:
“Today is suppose to be the Day! However, our programmer is doing the final touch. Sealing all backdoors. Just give him couple of days and he will ready to install the script.
Tonight I will use the masspayment system. However, not all of you will receive the money because the total withdrawal surprises me. 70K. I already ordered money few days ago from 3 exchangers and they said they need couple of days to complete the order because of the huge amount. So, the delay is on them not me.
Everything is doing okay. I repeat, some of you will receive your withdrawal tonight. To those who still have pending withdrawals, please be patient. Kev”.

The admin of SureBetInv promised to answer my questions for an interview soon so hopefully it will be published on my blog in a couple of days. I remind you that SureBetInv is allegedly involved in sports arbitrage betting which allows it to pay 1.4%-1.8% daily and 11%-15% weekly with no expiry. In today’s newsletter he gave the members some stats from the recent football matches which they apparently use for betting purposes, estimated some profit returns that could be sustainable and allow the admins make some profit for themselves as well, thanked the monitors and ordinary members of SureBetInv for their lasting support during the first days online and reported about the improvements in the support system including the tutoring of some staff for the live support and the introduction of the phone support. All the latest news and developments from SureBetInv (reviewed here) can be read below:
“Hello SureBetInv members, We completed one week of operation yesterday, during these 7 days working I’m amazed with the increasingly support of investors. The program has over 350 registered members, many already invested. Our arbiters are excited with the capital they have got for betting in this first week. We have had some excellent results in the events, especially in the Champions League. Let’s go with the most important events of SureBetInv portfolio in the last days:
Arsenal 2 v 0 West Ham, Man. United 2 v 1 Liverpool, Fulham 1 v 2 Manchester City, Fiorentina 3 v 0 Genoa, Palermo 1 v 1 Internazionale, Milan 1 v 1 Napoli
Bordeaux 3 v 1 Lille, Aston Villa 2 v 2 Wolverhampton, Arsenal 2 v 0 West Ham, Man. United 2 v 1 Liverpool, Athletic Bilbao 2 v 1 Getafe, Real Madrid 3 v 1 Sporting Gijon, Mallorca 4 v 1 Atletico de Madri, Malaga 2 v 0 Villarreal, Zaragoza 2 v 4 Barcelona.
Some results were very favorable to our business this week, especially those we got in the Spain Championship. Our arbiters could get very good odds in the matches of this event. I talked a bit with the 4 arbiters and they said that we could hardly get something better. Before we launched SureBetInv we did some calculations and we know the average profit per week is between 14% and 17%, in this first week we got 16.5% of profit, something excellent. The net profit of SureBetInv, after paid all members withdrawals and fees, will be 4.8%. It is a very encouraging profit for our business as we are working for only one week since the launch of SureBetInv. Our staff is very excited with the results, which makes us even more proud to continue working hard.
I am answering to an interview submitted by Paul Abramson, administrator of Money-news-online.com, I think many people know his site. It became the most popular blog of investments in the last 2 years. In this interview there are many issues that should be interesting for the investors. I would like that our members read it and also refer the interview to other people, maybe you have invited members and they are still waiting more information about our business to join SureBetInv. I thank Paul for the interview, I already responded to all questions but I still need arbiters to check it, I want to make sure everything is correct.
Thank you everybody for your deposits, for referring people to SureBetInv, thank you monitors for the realistic views about our project. I see many monitor administrators posting in the forums some ideas about our program, I hope you continue the good job. I’m sorry if I could not put more monitors in the Marketing page, we received lots of emails from monitoring sites. I chose the most popular and reputed, my goal is to benefit our project with good marketing and help members with real statistics about SureBetInv.
Oh, I would forget to announce we are training a person that will be responsible for the Live Chat and telephone support, this service is not available yet but we are working to provide it as soon as possible. So untill the next week you will find in the site a telephone number that you can use to contact us and clear your doubts. In this moment if you have questions please use Live Chat or email.
Best Regards, SureBetInv Team”.

The most recent update from PTVPartner (reviewed here) gave us a very exciting update on the imminent introduction of the much anticipated Bank wire option. When it’s fully implemented any member of PTVPartner will be able to send Bank wires (starting from $1,000) to any of the plans which the program is offering to online investors: 110% after 10 days, 125% after 20 days, 145% after 30 days and 190% after 40 days. I remind you that at this moment you can only invest in PTVPartner via four popular payment processors: LibertyReserve, PerfectMoney, GlobalDigitalPay and StrictPay. Other features on the recent newsletter from PTVPartner includes the meeting schedule for this week, and traditional Blog articles of the day and Joke of the day columns. I remind you that the admin of PTVPartner Garrett is going to reply to my questions for a second interview this week which is expected to be published on MNO next Monday. Please stay tuned as you won’t want to miss it and if you’d like to know what to expect from the second interview with Garrett please refer to the first one which you can read here.

“Bank Wires Soon to be Available
We have established our structure, opened the accounts and are diligently working to integrate the script into our website. The Bank Wire feature will be available within a few more days.
Once the Bank Wire option is online you will be able to ‘Register’ your bank account inside your member area. From that point forward you will be able to Deposit and Withdraw with bank Wire as an option.
The minimum deposit or withdraw via Bank Wire will be $1000 USD.
The bank itself imposes a 2% fee for incoming and outgoing wire transfers.
We will be adding, very shortly, a Euro Option and a Canadian Dollar Option. Other currencies will follow in due time.
If you initially deposit with USD you will be able to withdraw in any currency we offer based on the current available rate of exchange.
We will announce the bank info in the coming days.
Members do have the option of opening accounts via this fiduciary which will open the doors to additional options such as Debit Cards, Credit Cards, Offshore Structure Assistance and many other services.
We look forward to being able to open this option and make it available to the members who have anticipated it.

Call to decision
“From 1976 to present Bob has spoken and given workshops at over 200 business conferences worldwide, and has been on radio and TV hundreds of times. Until his retirement in 1988 he was always judged by the attendees to be one of the top three speakers and never once was lower than first in workshops due to his vast knowledge of the mining business and his grasp of worldwide financial markets and political scenes.” Check here if you’ve read the other info we’ve had.
Topic highlights:
Healthcare Economics
Stimulus Package
How to be Prepared
Unemployment
Mixed Reaction to Fast Net Pledge
Have you heard about the plan in the UK to put High Speed Broadband access in every home? It would appear that the labour party’s plans for this are meeting with seriously mixed reactions.
“The intervention, he said, would involve government money as well as policy and regulatory changes.”
Does this sound familiar? What are your feelings on this? More and more you will be asked to think about and determine what your government’s involvement will be in your life and your lifestyle. No matter where you live you will find that most governments will be spending more of your money. If you’re fine with more government spending and requirements then decide that. If you’re not, decide what you will do about it.
Joke of the Day:
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a camping trip, set up their tent, and fall asleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes his faithful friend.
‘Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.’
Watson replies, ‘I see millions of stars.’
‘What does that tell you?’
Watson ponders for a minute.’ Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, it’s evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?
Holmes is silent for a moment, then speaks. ‘Watson, you idiot, someone has stolen our tent.’
Start the Experience … join PTVPartner and … Free your Life!!!”

The admin of IntermedInvestments Terry reported in his last newsletter that membership significantly increased due to the interest shown from potential investors after reading my detailed review of the program published here. I think in the latest update from IntermedInvestments the admin showed some true professionalism and managed to introduce himself in a simple yet dignified manner. Some other points were being discussed like the limited offer of the VIP plan and the site’s coming overhaul which I think will be useful to make IntermedInvestments more prominent and memorable with investors seeking for professionalism not only in the payments and sustainable plans but also in the site’s design which could be more appealing for IntermedInvestments for sure:
“Hello, everybody. As we increase our visibility online with a review by Money-News-Online published March 23 (thank you for that, Paul!), our membership has already increased massively. With so many new members, I thought it prudent to issue this update. My plan is for these to become more regular in nature – every week or so – with brief updates on urgent matters spattered in between. I am by nature a man of few words, so you will find (and I hope appreciate) that I will always be brief and to the point. This will likely be the longest update you will read from me!
First of all, my name is Terry Jameson. You will find that all communications from our program will have my name in the signature. That is because I am responsible for all queries that come through our contact form and e-mail. Though I may delegate some tasks to others, I will always take full responsibility for the content of our communications. As is ALWAYS the case, you are free to contact me with any problems, questions, complaints, or suggestions for or about our program. This last item is most important to me, suggestions. We are a relatively new program, and I am always looking for ways to improve. I take all suggestions from our members under serious consideration (provided they are realistic and adherent to the laws of business and physics!). And if a suggestion is NOT enacted, I will provide an explanation for such a decision. Please e-mail me directly at administration@intermed-investments.com, or use our contact form.
Second, as mentioned above, a review of our program was recently published on MNO. Paul covered all the salient points of our program. Though I feel we have made the website and program simple to understand, if anything is unclear, please let me know and I will do my best to explain further.
Third, our VIP Opportunity will be vanishing soon. Originally, the limit for investment was always set at $20,000. There are approximately $2000 remaining available at the moment, and we expect that to go within the next few days. When that happens, we will remove the banner and deposit options for this plan from our site. For those of you unaware, this pays 25% every 15 days for 180 days, and principle is returned.
Finally, it has been suggested by several members that we “upgrade” the look of our website. Though our design has so far been functional, I myself have never been thrilled with it. A bit too mediocre for my taste. So, we are looking for designers who can help us. If you are a website designer, or know of one we could use, please let me know (preferably somebody who has experience with the integration of Neversay scripts). I don’t expect any downtime to result from any upgrades, as we will NOT be changing the script (as this seems to cause so many programs so much difficulty).
Thank you for your attention. Have a great week!
Best Regards, Terry Jameson. Administration”.

I have added two new programs to my monitoring page tonight. The first one is a low -ROI program called StereaFunds. It offers two investment plans: 1.5%-1.9% daily and 8.5%-10.5% weekly. Remember that the payouts are done only on business days and that you can request your principal back after the initial lock-in period of 120 business days. Unfortunately only LibertyReserve and PerfectMoney are currently accepted by StereaFunds which makes it kinda limited in its appeal to investors. The minimum to invest in each plan is only $10 however with the profits increasing in line with your principal. The security of the site is up to standard as well – StereaFunds uses SSL encryption and is hosted on a dedicated Staminus server by DdoSWiz. The program has been online for a week so can be considered as very new (considering its low-ROI plans). More about StereaFunds can be read in the upcoming review on MNO soon.

But if you’re looking for a promising short-term HYIP you should look no further than to RichesToTheMax – a brand new program with an original design, unique and customized script, and attractive and lucrative plans: 104% after 1 day (minimum to invest $5), 123% after 5 days (minimum to invest $50) and 200% after 10 days (minimum to invest $250). Of course, the SSL encryption for safer investing and hosting on a dedicated Staminus server with DDOS-protection provided by DdosWiz are the additional bonuses on which the more savvy investors will look at first. There is quite a limited choice of payment processors accepted by RichesToTheMax (only LibertyReserve, PerfectMoney and GlobalDigitalPay are currently accepted) which can undermine the program’s growth. It’s fair to say the addition of more options would definitely be greeted by some investors preferring to deal with some PPs requiring verification. However this inconvenience is offset by the instant payouts to the accepted processors. Also please remember that to invest in RichesToTheMax you first have to fund your account from your e-currency account. Then click on the Deposit Funds button, choose the amount you wish to spend, and distribute it among your desired plans. More on RichesToTheMax program will be discussed on my blog in the upcoming review which will be published within the course of the next few days. Stay tuned for that, guys!

I hope it will be a very interesting read for you so don’t forget to check out my blog tomorrow!
