Hello everyone! First of all just on a personal note let me say I’m really excited about the next four weeks. That’s how long I’ll be spending in Italy and San Marino so I’m looking forward to seeing all the wonderful historical old cities and hiking in the beautiful rustic countryside. The food and wine won’t hurt either! That’s me for the next month anyway, but I’ll be very much active on MNO and will be posting regularly as always and maintaining my monitor. Getting back to business now, being Saturday it’s been slow enough in the industry, something I myself was kinda grateful for as I prepare for my trip. The news item of any note is from AppStorm who seem to be picking up a bit of steam, though away from the actual programs I monitor there was a couple of announcements made by two payment processors in SolidTrustPay and Payza. It’s also time I think to draw the final results of the MNO TalkBack opinion poll asking about your intentions for the HYIP industry over the summer. There’s also a new question asking what you think the most important features a new HYIP needs to have before you consider it good enough to join. So let’s get started with our weekend MNO news issue!

APPSTORM – TWO WEEKS ONLINE REVIEWED AND REPRESENTATIVE SCHEME SIMPLIFIED

It hasn’t been a great couple of weeks in the industry, no point in denying it, but one of the few bright new programs we still hold out some hope for is AppStorm. As a long term program it’s still very much brand new, and offers investors a chance to earn between 2.2% and 3% daily in plans running 90 business days. You can get a more detailed explanation of that and the other main features of the program in the AppStorm review which was first published on MNO here. The only thing I was a little disappointed in was the shortage of payment methods, AppStorm‘s list consisting of PerfectMoney, Payeer, and BitCoin with a $20 minimum investment. Anyway, two weeks online was marked in the admin’s latest newsletter to members which also spelt out some changes in the program’s regional representative scheme. Previously these positions were only open to larger investors, but the main change just made by the admin sees the minimum requirement drop to a $100 deposit. In return for their services the successful candidates are rewarded with an improved rate of referral commission payments. Please note however that for the moment this is only a provisional offer and will be reviewed at the end of next month. To become an AppStorm representative the admin still requires that you have at least three other investors in your downline first before applying. I guess this is probably to satisfy him that you are serious about the role and are capable of bringing other people in to AppStorm under you. That’s fair enough I suppose, if he’s serious about the program then he should expect the same attitude from his representatives. The full newsletter from AppStorm can be read below:

“Two weeks online and changes in the representatives program
AppStorm Limited has successfully launched its investment project, and we can take the interim results for the first two weeks of our work. First of all, we didn’t set ourselves the goal of a rapid increase in the number of new customers or large investment inflows at the initial stage of development. However, we are grateful to all who are interested in our offer and become our active investors. We guarantee that we’ll make every effort not to disappoint you and help you to make confident steps to financial freedom by investing with us. Smooth development of the project suggests the continued success of the company, and we don’t doubt it.
AppStorm Limited proposal is beneficial not only for investors but also for partners and regional representatives. We would like to describe in detail the mechanism for obtaining the status of company representative, which will allow you to earn from 2% to 10% commission through your active efforts to attract new investors. Today we can propose to start representing the interests of the company if you are registered on our website and in case you have an active deposit of not less than 300$ and the number of your active direct referrals is at least 3 people. As you can see in the website section with representatives we already have several such partners. However, we get a lot of queries for simplification of procedure for obtaining representative status and would like temporarily to meet your needs.
In this way, in the period up to the end of June 2016 you can become a company’s representative with a deposit of just $100. We want to make sure that you are serious about our proposal and continue to require at least 3 active referrals before we’ll consider your request. We hope that this will help you to become a part of our team and earn more thanks to affiliate rewards program.
Thank you for choosing AppStorm Limited, stay in touch and follow our updates!”

SOLIDTRUSTPAY – CLOSED FOR BANK HOLIDAY

Most of the news from the industry today comes from the payment processors that accommodate them. Starting then with SolidTrustPay which has long been a favorite both of myself and many of my readers. As you may know, SolidTrustPay are a Canadian company, and as such will observe Canadian laws and holidays. Coming up this weekend then is Victoria Day, celebrated this Monday, May 23. In practical terms what that means to everyone else living where this is not a holiday is that you now need to add an extra 24 hours onto any pending business you might have with SolidTrustPay. That includes deposits, withdrawal requests, exchanges, document review, and pretty much any ongoing support tickets you might still have open with them. Just to re-iterate, many of the benefits and advantages open to online HYIP players who use SolidTrustPay as their preferred payment handler were explained in this article on the MNO Info Center page. The security of the accounts, the level of customer support, the way they allow direct deposits and bank withdrawals without the need for over priced third party exchangers, it’s all top notch.

For any Canadian MNO readers let me just join in the sentiments expressed by STP and wish you all the best for the holidays and hope you have a great weekend. Meanwhile you can read the posting informing account holders of the holiday from the official STP news blog re-posted for you below:

“Office Closure for Victoria Day Holiday
Please be advised that SolidTrust Pay’s offices will be closed on Monday, May 23rd for Victoria Day. As this is a Canadian banking holiday, customers are reminded to add extra processing time for deposits, withdrawals, and e-currency exchanges; along with document review and support ticket replies.
We hope that everyone has a happy and safe long holiday weekend.”

PAYZA – WARNINGS OVER ONLINE SECURITY

Another popular payment processors among MNO readers of course is Payza, who are similar in many ways to SolidTrustPay. They have issued a somewhat lengthier news update that warns account holders about an online scam. Various scams actually, but essentially they are all the same thing. Basically what happens is that someone offers you an app for a so called “money adder”. You download the app, and it gives you the ability to just magically add money to your Payza account and start spending like a drunk oligarch. I know, it really is as stupid as it sounds, but some people will believe anything! Given that in order to be scammed in the first place you need to be doing something dishonest yourself then it’s kinda hard to sympathize with the “victims”. But just in case someone is under any illusions as to the ethics of their intentions, the same warning is out there for everyone. The only thing that you are really downloading with these money adders is a backdoor for the app writer to hack your Payza account. Now, whether or not he can successfully steal any money from you is debatable, but it still gives away confidential information and who’s to say what else could be lifted from your computer or phone. For more information you can read the update from Payza below:

“Beware Payza Money Adder Hacks: This Is A Scam
Has any Payza member ever received free money from a hack money adder?
No, definitely not.
Conduct an internet search with terms “payza hack” or “payza money adder” and you will find a plethora of listings; we are not alone: similar “hacks” exist for all major online money transfer businesses. All these sites advertise ways to get free money in your Payza account. It almost seems too good to be true.
Well, it is. Let us explain.
What is a “Money Adder” and “Payza Hack”
They go by a few names, mostly along the lines of Payza Money Adder, or Payza Money Generator, or simply, Payza hack.
Some look primitive in terms of design and promotion; others are very sophisticated with stylish design and branding. Some purported money adders are available as a mobile app, some only work on desktop. Many are associated with promotional videos on Youtube and social media, providing slick demonstrations on how simple and effective this hack is.
Has a Payza hack ever provided money to an account? No, never
Despite these differences, all money adders have one thing in common: they do not actually give you free money.
These money adders share another common trait: They are designed to trick you into providing your Payza Account details so that a fraudster can compromise your account.
We can say with absolute certainty that no one has ever received money in their account from a money adder or similarly purported hack. Our fraud prevention and customer support departments, however, are familiar with the need to freeze accounts that have been accessed by unwanted third parties. Our investigations indicate that third parties gained access to an account after the owner provided their login information to one of these money adder sites.
“FrEE INSTaNT MONEY! SIMPLY GIvE US YOuR PERSoNAL InFO! >:-)”
Embrace the advice from this popular expression: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
We recently discussed Payza Money Adders and Payza Hacks on Quora. For a more detailed explanation of how this scam works, read our answer below.
Please stay vigilant so that, together, we can minimize the risks of online fraud.

MNO TALKBACK – POLL RESULTS AND NEW POLL ADDED

Finally for today I want to draw the final results of the last MNO TalkBack opinion poll and replace it with a brand new question. So, with the summer upon us it’s often happened in the past that the HYIP industry gets a little bit quieter around now. People have other plans, vacations and so on, and the HYIP world becomes less of a priority. The question I was asking therefore was:
“What will you be doing in the HYIP industry for the summer?”

Most readers will carry on as always it seems, with 56% of you voting “The same as always, the time of year is not important.” There’s still a significant minority however you will be scaling things back to a greater or lesser extend. 13% of you voted “The same as always, the time of year is not important”, while 9% said “Less than usual, I have other commitments.” Meanwhile the remaining 22% took a more optimistic view of “I am expecting some good opportunities soon, I’ll be busy!”

For the new question I want to thank one of my readers for making a suggestion. And by the way, if anyone else has any ideas for HYIP related opinion polls then feel free to pass them on to me. I won’t make a promise but everything will definitely be considered. What I’m asking this week then is what are the main criteria you look for in a HYIP before joining? What are the most important features, the absolute “deal breakers” that a program simply must have before you will join. The exact question will be:

“Which is the most important factor that must be present before you join a HYIP?”

Your possible answers are as follows:
a) Short time to profit
b) Instant payouts
c) Variety of payment options
d) Strong security and hosting
e) Good design and script

As usual thanks in advance to everyone who votes here. Everyone’s opinion counts equally so please take the opportunity to express it. The poll will stay open for around a week or so, maybe ten days, but definitely long enough for anyone who wants to vote to be able to do so. Voting only takes a second and is completely anonymous, unless of course you prefer to discuss it on the MNO ShoutBox as you are welcome to do.

I’ll be taking a day off tomorrow to relax after my journey and enjoy the sights and sounds of Rome and The Vatican, but don’t worry, my monitor will always be updated a minimum of once every 24 hours to give the most accurate and up-to-date status for all programs. Enjoy the rest of your weekend, thanks as ever for reading, and I’ll see you all again on Monday!
