Beware! UnicoFX has stopped paying! Do not invest there!

Hello everybody! Monday again so I hope you all enjoyed your weekend and are looking forward to getting back fun and games of the HYIP industry. Before the day’s news stories which as usual I’ll be getting to in the second half of today’s update, I want to start with a closer look at a short term HYIP called UnicoFX. You might remember it was first introduced on the MNO blog last night, however as it’s already been online for the last two weeks or so can’t really be considered new anymore. Not in relation to the plans the program is offering potential members anyway. Though as we shall see, and this is typical for programs like UnicoFX, some of the plans will get you a reasonable profit in a short space of time while others are probably not worth the risk. Which is which is entirely up to you to decide, so let’s take a closer look at all the plans plus the other main features of the program and see if you think UnicoFX might be worth taking a chance on or not.

Starting as usual then with the investment plans, UnicoFX have no less than eight of them in total, though most of the more experienced players are unlikely to be interested in some of them. Al plans have a number of things in common, most importantly that they all pay you just once on expiry of the investment term, and that the final payment will be based on how much you spend – the bigger investors being tempted with a bigger interest payment.

So to start with the first plan runs for a term of just 1 single day and makes one interest payment on expiry, a payment that includes your principal. So join today and get paid tomorrow. The minimum cost of joining is $10 and for anything up to a deposit of $499 UnicoFX offer a return of 104%, or 4% profit. You may make a larger deposit if you can afford to, and expect a higher percentage in return. The rates are calculated as follows:
Deposits of $500 to $999 will earn 105%, and from $1,000 to $4,999 will earn 106%. Check the UnicoFX members area for information on larger investments if interested.

The second plan runs for a term of 3 calendar days and also pays on expiry. The same $10 minimum deposit is required to join and for anything up to $499 UnicoFX are paying back 113% interest, a figure that includes your principal so that’s 13% profit for yourself. For anyone brave enough to go further than that then the following rates are offered:
116% for deposits between $500 and $999, and 120% for $1,000 up to $4,999. For the rates available to bigger deposits I suggest you see the UnicoFX members area.

UnicoFX‘s next plan pays on expiry after a term of 5 calendar days and costs $10 to join. Your final payment will also include your principal. Make anything from the $10 minimum deposit up to a value of $499 and the return will be 125% on expiry, or 25% profit. If you’re feeling lucky and wish to take a bigger risk then UnicoFX make the following offers:
Spend from $500 to $999 and earn 130%, and get 135%, on anything from $1,000 to $4,999. Again check out your UnicoFX members area to see what they offer to investments bigger than that.

As you can see the plans get more and more risky as the terms get longer. So it’s time to maybe start considering how realistic these figures are before getting too excited at the enormous rates available. But at least you can still join for a minimum spend of $10 and for UnicoFX‘s fourth investment plan which runs for a 15 calendar day term that can supposedly earn you 180% interest, paid on expiry and principal included, if depositing up to $499. Beyond that the rates are:
195% for $500 to $999, and 220% for $1,000 to $2,999. Larger investments are accepted so for information there see the UnicoFX members area.

Plans described above have all up until now completed one or more investment cycles. Not so with the remaining plans which are all going to require you taking an added risk that almost borders on a “leap of faith” if you like. However as we shall see the minimum amount required by UnicoFX to join any of their remaining four plans takes a massive increase, and in some cases to such an extent that I would only call it a blessing in disguise that a lot of investors may be saved from heavy losses here by virtue of the simple fact that they can’t afford to join in the first place. Anyway, it’s your own business entirely if you feel any of the following options are suitable for you, I can only give you the figures.

So plan number five will set you back a $100 minimum investment and runs for a term of 30 calendar days. For deposits up to a $499 maximum UnicoFX offer their members a single payout of 270% made on expiry and including their principals. For larger amounts the rates go to 300% for $500 to $999, and 350% for $1,000 to $4,999. See the UnicoFX members area for further details on amounts even bigger than that if interested.

This is followed by a plan running for a term of 50 calendar days, paying once on expiry assuming UnicoFX get that far. The minimum requirement for joining is a $150 minimum deposit and at the end of the term you are offered a 400% return including your principal. For anything bigger the rates are:
450% for $500 to $999, and 555% for $1,000 to $2,999. Larger investments are accepted so for information there see the UnicoFX members area.

A minimum spend of $250 is required to join the next plan, though even the most naïve of HYIP newbies will see that things have long since descended into the ridiculous before this when it comes to the offers being made. The term runs for 100 calendar days, with one payment on expiry. A rather unlikely rate of 2,000% is offered, principal included, on deposits up to a value of $499. If you disagree and believe this is actually possible, well, that’s a lot of money that can never be recovered just to call someone’s bluff. Even more unlikely rates apply to larger deposits, such as 2,500% on amounts between $500 and $999, and 3,000% on amounts from $1,000 to $4,999. See the UnicoFX members area for information on anything above that.

And finally, and this is probably as much for information/amusement purposes than any of the last couple of plans, UnicoFX have what they describe as a VIP Plan. One suspects the only VIP here is going to be the admin, as a minimum deposit (perhaps minimum “donation” might be a better description!) of $2,500 is required to join. The term runs for 10 calendar days with a flat 1,200% interest offered on all deposits up to a maximum value of $50,000. Though if you ask really nicely and say please then I’m sure the UnicoFX admin can be persuaded to accept more.

If you like any of the plans then the payment options available to you are a bit limited, with UnicoFX taking just PerfectMoney, EgoPay, and HD-Money. All payments are processed manually by the program’s admin and are not instant which is often the case with programs like this. They will need to be requested by individual members from inside their private account area. Once done the admin promises to have all transactions completed within not more than a 12 hour maximum timeframe, that’s according to the UnicoFX terms and conditions anyway, and as far as I can see from the main forums that’s seems to have been the case up until now.

Moving on to the design and security aspects to the program now, UnicoFX is running off a script that’s under license from the always popular GoldCoders so will have quite a feeling of familiarity to most regular HYIP industry players. The website has SSL encryption by Comodo for safer browsing and more secure transactions, and is hosted on a dedicated server by Koddos with the protection they provide from attacks. If you have any further questions you would like to put to the UnicoFX admin then you can get in touch by filling out your details on the online support form and submitting through the contacts page on their website. UnicoFX also comes with a built-in Live Chat feature so if you prefer, and you find an operator there at the time, you might be able to get your questions answered in real time. Fans of social networking sites can find UnicoFX keeping profiles on both Facebook and Twitter, unfortunately though this seems to have been a disappointingly wasted opportunity as after two weeks there’s been next to zero activity on either. A postal address is listed for UnicoFX in the UK, though you’d be unlikely to find anyone connected with the program there were you to actually visit as I recognize it as a serviced office used by many other businesses including other HYIPs in the past. Though if you wish to try calling them there is a phone number included if you think you will get a response.

I must admit that the UnicoFX website looks very well put together and designed, however the texts give a quite muddled and cryptic description of some kind of stock and ForEx trading strategy. Nothing you can verify of course and unlikely to be anything more substantial that any of the countless other online HYIPs to make the same claims about similar returns. And I suspect UnicoFX will eventually go the same way, with some plans making a reasonable return for smarter investors who know both how to play and when. So as always keep your spending to a sensible and affordable limit that won’t hurt you were you to lose it, and if joining UnicoFX at all then try and keep them as a smaller part of a wider more diverse portfolio.

DAILY NEWS FROM THE INDUSTRY

UNICOFX – LIVE CHAT AND PHONE SUPPORT INTRODUCTION

More communication channels were added today to the above reviewed UnicoFX which I already explained. As for the London office UnicoFX is allegedly having and which you can visit I wouldn’t be too sure of that. As I live in London myself and from my own previous experiences with HYIPs, such addresses are just cheaply obtained virtual managed offices with no one there connected with the program, and most likely never even have heard of them. Feel free to visit them yourself if you think I’m mistaken. Anyway, as I already said in my review of UnicoFX, just treat it as a regular HYIP to avoid disappointment and only invest what you can afford to lose. Here is the latest from the admin Ryan:

“Live Chat and Phone Support Available
My name is Ryan Stevenson and I am main Administrator and CEO manager of UnicoFX.

OILGROUP – CELEBRATING 20 DAYS ONLINE AND SOME CHANGES

Another popular short-term program OilGroup has been online for nearly three weeks now and the admin decided to share the good news with his investors. Their latest newsletter also announced some minor changes such as an increased level of referral commissions which the best promoters will receive from now on, around the clock support hours, and an updated phone number for resolving urgent issues with your account. If you haven’t read the full review of OilGroup published here, I’ll remind you that the program accepts deposits starting from $10 via EgoPay, PerfectMoney, and HD-Money, and you can invest in plans that include 104%-120% after 1 day, 122%-230% after 5 days, 170%-750% after 15 days, 400%-1800% after 30 days, 700%-3000% after 45 days, 800% after 8 days.

POKERBYPROXY – PROFITABLE RESULTS FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS

I’m glad to see that for the last few days PokerByProxy working fine and as expected, after the program’s move to BlockDos, the attacks are a thing of the past. That certainly vastly improved investors’ confidence in the program which still pays to everyone consistently and within the promised 24 to 48 hour timeframe. The full review of PokerByProxy can be found on MNO here with the interview with its admin Patrick here. In a nutshell PokerByProxy tries to operate like a bank account, allowing you to deposit or withdraw any amount you like (including any part of your principal and profit) at any time you like, even after one day. Daily returns reported by the admin at the end of each day are variable and go up as well as down. The results can be up to 25% profit on one single day and the potential losses are capped at 5% per day. The latest results were profitable though, as yesterday the report stated 3.33% profits on deposits, and today it was 1.07%. Investors can withdraw to SolidTrustPay, EgoPay, PerfectMoney, HD-Money, BitCoin, or PayPal accounts, and also to Bank accounts and via Western Union. Deposits in PokerByProxy usually start from $25 and can be done at any time, but preferably before the end of every calendar day GMT when the results are posted. Below are the results from PokerByProxy for the last couple of days:

“Sunday 6th October 2013
Result 3.33%
Report Another great day at the tables here at the Casino de Montreal. Things started off well, with a few wins on the lower limit tables, before we decided to move up to some higher limits. For some reason, the casino was packed (perhaps due to the lousy weather), which was great, as it provided us with a wide variety of players, including numerous amateurs who were trying their luck.
After a few hours of play, we calculated that we had achieved a return of 3.33%, which we felt was a satisfactory result for the day. Anyway, we’ve just packed up and checked out of our hotel, and will be departing Montreal. While not quite as successful as our Niagara Falls trip, I’m satisfied with our results.
All accounts have been updated with today’s result.”

“Monday 7th October 2013
Result 1.07%
Report After such a busy weekend, all of us here at PokerByProxy were pretty tired, so we limited today’s poker play to a short session. Only 2 of our team members played today, while the others rested. The result, after a 50 minute session of online play was a return of 1.07%, which has been added to all accounts.”

SOLIDTRUSTPAY – THANKSGIVING CELEBRATIONS

In other news maybe not directly connected to HYIPs but still having a significant affect on their operations, SolidTrustPay will soon be taking an extended weekend break. For anyone who doesn’t already know, the STP payment processor is a Canadian based company. Being compliant with the financial rules and regulations of what’s often been regarded in international business surveys as the least corrupt country in the world, I guess this would explain their popularity among online investors. Operating out of Canada of course means that SolidTrustPay and their employees also observe the national holidays there, and despite still being a week away they have given their account holders ample notice that next Monday is one of them. Coming a little bit earlier in the season to what most people will know as “Thanksgiving”, ie the American holiday, in Canada it is of course celebrated in October. So next Monday, October 14, the STP staff will be enjoying a well earned day off. If you need to contact them for any reason, or if you have any deposit, withdrawal, or any kind of transaction queries, please remember to allow them at least an extra 24 hours to deal with your request. Below is the announcement taken from the STP news blog, but first let me just take this early opportunity to wish a Happy Thanksgiving to the STP staff, all Canadian readers of MNO both in Canada and celebrating abroad, and their families. Have a good one!

“Customer Support Holiday – Thanksgiving (Monday, Oct 14 2013)
Please be advised that SolidTrust Pay’s offices will be closed on Monday, October 14, 2013 for Thanksgiving. As this is also a Canadian banking holiday, customers are reminded to add an extra day of processing time for deposits, withdrawals, and e-currency exchanges.
For a complete list of STPay Customer Support Holidays, please visit our online Holiday Schedule. http://solidtrustnews.com/holiday-schedule/
We would like to wish all those celebrating the holiday a safe and happy Thanksgiving!”
