23/12/2011. Interview with the admin of ProfitableSunrise

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

Hi guys! With Christmas nearly here I won’t be posting so much over the coming days, though I will of course have a full news update tomorrow, assuming there’s much to actually report on that is. I do have a brief update on two programs for you that I’ll be getting to in just a moment (unfortunately neither of them is all that positive), but first as the headline says I have an interview with the admin of ProfitableSunrise.

That’s a long term HYI program that’s been running since the early part of November, and though while that’s not exactly brand new with plans that offer more sustainable rates like 1.6%-2% for 180 business days with your principal returned on expiry there really only getting started now. In the hands of the right admin anyway ProfitableSunrise could go a long way. I wouldn’t really expect much activity between now and the new year (and that’s something I’d say for all HYIPs) once we enter January I guess we’ll have a much clearer picture of where they’re headed. Meanwhile if you like the following interview with the admin and want some further information, a more detailed review of ProfitableSunrise was published on MNO a couple of weeks back and you can read it here.

“1. Hi Roman, please introduce yourself to the readers of MNO and tell us about your own role within ProfitableSunrise. What are your own duties within the program? What kind of experience do you have in managing the funds of others?

My name is Roman Novak. I am the founder and sole owner of ProfitableSunrise. I am also the head of the company responsible for its daily operations. I have years of experience in managing funds of investors. In fact, I have been in this business for over 20 years now. I believe in God and follow his teachings in everything I do. I also do believe that he helped me and my company a lot.

2. Can you also give us some background on the program? How long have you been running? What were you hoping to achieve by starting it in the first place? Apart from you is there anybody else working on ProfitableSunrise?

Before launching the website, I have been successfully running this project offline for over 10 years. I have decided to launch the website in the effort to increase the company’s exposure and grow its clientele. This is a natural course of events, I guess any investment company (even those that are run privately) must sooner or later establish its presence online.

It’s a great honour for me to introduce my team (which I think of as a family) to you. My brother Radoslav Novak is the company lawyer and apart from the legal issues is responsible for the company marketing. Ruth Ellington is the head of our accounting department. Nosuke Koyama is the technical expert responsible for the smooth operation of our website.

3. What about the investment plans? Can you explain them in detail to us? What are the minimum and maximum amounts for investment, what rates of interest are on offer and how long do they run for? Which ones have been the most popular?

Here is a brief description of the investment plans we offer:

-Starter Plan. The minimum investment is $10.00. Interest rate is 1.6% per business day. Compounding is available. Principal amount is returned upon maturity.
-Regular Plan. The minimum investment is $500.00. Interest rate is 1.8% per business day. Compounding is available. Principal amount is returned upon maturity.
-Advanced Plan. The minimum investment is $2,500.00. Interest rate is 2% per business day. Compounding is available. Principal amount is returned upon maturity.
-Private Plan. This plan is available to groups only. All the details are discussed individually.

All of the investment plans we offer are designed for a 180-day investment term. It means that a customer cannot withdraw the principal amount during the 180-day term. Every customer can have up to 4 different plans running at the same time within one account.

Most of our members invest into the Advanced or Private plans.

4. Tell us about the payment options available from ProfitableSunrise. What payment processors are you currently dealing with? What have been the most popular choices among investors? Are you currently allowing instant payments?

Currently we offer Liberty Reserve and Perfect Money as payment options for deposits and withdrawals. Several other payment options will be added within by the end of the year or early in 2012.

5. How highly would you rate the security of your own website? Tell us about your hosting provider and how highly would you rate them as a service provider?

I assure you that we take the issue of the security of our website really seriously. This is why we have Nosuke Koyama, a real IT security expert, on the team. Certainly, we our website is run on a separate dedicated server located in a class A datacenter. We have also signed up for a full-time anti-DDoS protection with Blockdos.net.

6. What script is your program running off? What would you say the benefits of this are to your members and how safe/secure/easy is it to use?

The software used on our website has been developed with simplicity and user-friendliness in mind. But even if the website may look a bit simplistic, the software ii operates on is state of the art and has been designed using the latest and the most efficient technologies.

7. What kind of customer support do you offer? What is the best and most efficient way to contact you if I have any questions?

We have designed our own unique customer support system. In addition to the regular emails, any ProfitableSunrise member can contact us directly from his or her ProfitableSunrise account using the support ticket option. This way we ensure that no email is lost and every question is answered. Moreover, I personally oversee all customer support replies and quite often answer them myself. We are a small, but highly efficient company. I believe we are a success because we strongly believe in individual approach to every member. It is through the account contact form or email that we can guarantee you individual and highly efficient assistance. For that reason we do not offer live chat and phone support on our website.

8. What have been the most common questions, problems, or other support related issues that you have had to deal with so far? Is there anything you would like to address here so that members can avoid having to contact you?

As I said before, we have designed our website with simplicity in mind. Naturally, no so many problems arise. However, there is one security option within the member account area that we receive a lot of questions about. It is the ‘Lock’ button. This is a security feature that allows every member to lock the basic settings of his or her account. This lock can be disabled only after you enter the ‘Security Word’ which you entered in the registration form.

9. What other outside business and investment activities are ProfitableSunrise involved with?

Apart from the main business activities ProfitableSunrise is involved in, we are doing a lot of charity work. We spend a really significant part of our profit on charities worldwide.

God has helped me a lot in my life. I am very grateful for the help and guidance that he has and is giving me. I believe that he would be happy to see we pay him back through helping others. I hope the charity work that ProfitableSunrise does will serve as an example for all our members.

10. Are there any plans to develop ProfitableSunrise further in the near future? How are you planning to keep the program competitive with so many new programs opening every day? With things picking up again in the industry how long do you realistically think you can keep a short term HYIP online for at the moment?

ProfitableSunrise does not compete with other projects or companies. We plan to continue our operations for many years.”

Thanks a lot to Roman for taking the time and effort to complete the questions. Best of luck to him in establishing the program in 2012 and good luck also to any readers who’ve taken a chance and invested there in hope of seeing a profit.

That’s almost it for today, but before I go there’s a couple of updates that I mentioned at the top of the page that I need to get to. The first concerns JackPotProject which after less than six weeks online has stopped processing payouts. Though it was online long enough for some of the earlier investors to profit from their 30 day plan, the vast majority would still be at a loss unless payments resume. JackPotProject has already been moved to Problem status on the MNO monitor and will go to Not Paying status soon enough if things don’t change. I don’t think there was a whole lot of interest in the program anyway so hopefully not many of you will be affected, but for anyone thinking of joining then please look elsewhere. As of this point any investments in JackPotProject are not recommended so please stay away from them!

Another less than positive development but one I’d have more mixed feelings about is the situation with HyperCompound. The admin has been having some well publicized difficulties with exchanging money in recent days, however the sad fact of the matter is that too many ordinary rank and file members are getting caught up in the middle and are not getting paid. Despite the admin’s intentions and despite the situation being largely out of his hands, the reasons why members do not get paid are irrelevant. That’s why I have also moved HyperCompound to Waiting Status on my monitor today. Now, I don’t want to panic anyone unduly and I do believe the admin is making a genuine effort to get the program back on track which is why I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt and not removing his ad banners from MNO. And the fact is that a fair number of his members have gotten paid despite the current exchange delays so I also don’t believe it’s a deliberate scam. But like I said, deliberate or not means nothing to the members so I’m afraid I’m also going to have to advise all readers to stay away from HyperCompound until further notice. I sincerely wish the admin success in turning things around will keep my fingers crossed that he does. But a lot of damage has been done already and with the industry slowing down so much at the moment it remains to be seen if he can repair it or not. If there’s any change with the status of HyperCompound then I will of course make sure that MNO is the first place you hear about it.

Sorry to finish on a negative note but that’s the way it goes in the industry sometimes. I’ll be back again tomorrow, hopefully a little earlier than usual as I need to be in bed early before Santa comes calling! It will be my last news update until after Christmas day so I hope to see you all on MNO tomorrow if you’re not too busy with the last minute Christmas shopping. See you all then, guys!
