HYIP/MLM News
Friday
Jul 31, 2009
Well, since I put this blog up I have had three programs disappear. Those programs were new programs that seem to have been put up by hit and run scammers.
I decided not to play any new programs and will stick to those programs that have already proven themselves.
Also, I am not posting as much, I’ve decided to concentrate on affiliate marketing more and more. At the moment, the MLM program I am having a lot of success with is People String. This is going to be a great money maker for me in the next couple of months when their Malbox-Cashbox program is finally put into effect.
If you haven’t looked into MLM/Affiliate Marketing you should.
Infinitiva, Inc.
Friday
Jul 10, 2009
Well, I took a huge leap of faith and decided to spend in Infinitiva, Inc.
There are several points that I took into consideration for doing so. The professional design of the website; it’s one of the best designs I have seen on any HYIP program. A certificate of incorporation in Belize, provided from the back office when you register (not that I pay attention to these much at all). The number of registered payment processor recently added, Alert Pay and previously Strict Pay. And, finally, the DDoS protection, provided by BlockDOS.
As far as the hosting is concerned, it seems that Infinitiva is sharing with another domain that they deny has anything to do with them. The admin of Infinitiva did answer an email by a member concerning the other domain. The email reply was posted at the Talk Gold forum, at the time the other domain was fitogroup.com, now there is another domain on the same IP address, forexmoneyinc.com:
Infinitiva, Inc., June 4th, 2009:
Our IP addresses, including the one we are using for the domain infinitiva.com, have been assigned to us by BlockDos a week ago.
BlockDos was contracted to provide the DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack protection services for Infinitiva. (More info at http://www.blockdos.net).I can only guess that the same IP address or a set of addresses previously
were provided for Fitogroup by BlockDos. We have no relations with that
company.
I tend to agree with Infinitiva’s explanation concerning the other domains on the server.
Infinitiva offers several plans:
- Starter Plan 0.8% – 1.0%, 10.00 – 59.99, for 30 days
- Advanced Plan 1.0% – 1.3%, 60.00 – 999.99, for 150 days
- Professional Plan 1.3% – 1.6%, 1,000 – 4,999, for 150 days
- Expert Plan 1.6% – 1.8%, 5,000 – 9,999, for 150 days
- Senior Plan 1.8% – 2.2%, 10,000 – 19,999, for 150 days
- Ultimate Plan 2.2% – 2.6%, 20,000 – unlimited, for 150 days
Although I will no longer post the programs that have paid me at the end of every post I make, I will say here that I did get my first payment from Infinitiva already.

Not much happening with the programs I am in, except to say that a few of them paid me today.
Ad-Ventures 4U
Steve Smith continues to claim of broken records in deposits week over week. It could be true being as the membership in this program is massive. As some of you know, Steve’s mother had a stroke, but she is doing better as we were updated on her situation today:
Update on my Mom, First I want to thank all of you for your concerns and thinking about our family. Mom is doing as best as we can expect at this time. She had a massive stroke and the kind she had kills about 90% of the people that have them. She does however know everyones name, from what I understand the back of her brain was highly affected but the front is in pretty good shape.
So we are still hoping that she will be able to continue to get better.
Thanks you all. Steve SMith
Here is some news on the planned GNI members only forum and a warning of work going on with the script. As I posted yesterday there were some problems with the rollover plan not crediting the daily interest. Members who were affected are now posting on the forums that their interests were credited and that the problem seems to be resolved.
… We are not planning a forum for VIPs, just a private forum for active members only. So everyone is welcome, as long as you have a deposit with us.
We will however continue to be part of this great forum as well and it will still be our endorsed forum!
A word about the postings of the Weekly Rollover earnings. The script picked up this afternoon after the guys at Black Lotus allocated a bit more memory to the php.ini. It took us a while to find out where the problem was located. For the tech interested guys among you, it was set to 32MB and they set it now to 64MB – but it could be to much, what could result in a runaway script or poor server performance. Currently they are playing around with the php.ini to find out what should be the right memory to maintain a proper operation. That caused this warning about “Too many connections in /home/goldnugg/public_html/includes/functions.inc.php on line 0″ Currently the site is loading fine again, just be aware that someone is busy with the server in the hours ahead.

Many members have been asking what’s going on with the Weekly Fixed Rollover plan. Todd, GNI’s support, has just explained that in a recent forum post.
FIRST THINGS FIRST.
WE’RE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE SCRIPT, AS A RESULT THE ROLLOVER PLAN DIDN’T PAY YESTERDAY. WE’RE AWARE OF IT AND ARE TAKING PROACTIVE MEASURES TO CORRECT IT. NO NEED TO SEND A TICKET 0R EMAIL
THANK YOU!!
Ad-Ventures 4U
Steve, the admin of Ad-Ventures 4U, sent an update today reporting on the progress with the script. His programmer had this to report:
Ventrino LTE Script Update
Hi Steve, I thought I would give you an update on progress. You have probably noticed performance on your current script has improved over the last couple of days too. This because I have implement changes to the indexing by moving over code from the new script. The framework is in place and the new tools page is ready. This incorporates messages from the members upline and twitter. Members will be able to speak directly to the downline members without using email (thus avoiding spam complaints). They will see a list of people searching for ways to make money on twitter and can send them a link with their referral ID. Attached is a short video that demonstrates how that works. The XSS protection code is now in place and I’m confident we can block all known methods – of course that’s not a guarantee that someone somewhere will find a new method but will give excellent protection until then! Dave will start on you red design later this week, I have told him to keep it red and to remove the cartoony effects and go for real photos thus giving it a more serious business look.

HYIP News – Saza Investments LDA
Friday
Jul 3, 2009
Saza Investments LDA sent us members an email concerning the fake certificate of incorporation. I posted about this here.
This is their reply:
Many members were asking us about a phone number, adress and about the certificate on our site. We are in the process of moving the entire company to Dubai and that’s the reason for not offering an adress or phone support yet. Many of our bussinesses interests are connected to Dubai and they also have a more flexible policy which will allow us to make more profit.
All the papers for Portugal were made by an intermediar company for us and we never did had a problem with them till now. Many of you told us that our certificate is not good. Nobody told us that untill now. Anyway, it won’t be the case anymore as we are moving to Dubai and the process of moving started couple of month ago already. As soon as the movement will be completed we will post on our site the new certificate, our adress and phone number.
Also we will start to offer bank wire deposit option too. Anybody will be able to verify us online or offline without a problem. We hope that this will stop the rumours who are meant to ruine our credibility.
Also we did our research and we’ve noticed that many of those who are doing this are from Romania and Moldova Republic from where the ddos attack on us came too. So we asked our security team to block in few days these two countries. All members from these two countries who already invested with us will be asked to provide us papers for verification and their own IP’s to can access our site after this. We hope this will protect our program more. Our program is safe and stable and we are doing our best to make all our members happy all the time.
Thank you all for your trust in us.
Best regards,
Saza Investments Team
At this point I really don’t care too much about the fake certificate. As I wrote in my previous post concerning this, plenty of programs have done this before, and this doesn’t mean that they will run with our money. What matters now is that they follow thru with their promise and provide the new information.
Update (July 6, 2009):
According to Saza Investments we have it all wrong about the registration number on their certificate. It isn’t a registration number at all, but an ISO number:
ISO 9000
ISO 9001:2000 Certified what is the meaning of this?
For4tune Was Richard O’Neill’s Scam
Friday
Jul 3, 2009
Well, it’s official, Richard O’Neill was behind the program For4Tune all along! After denying this fact, it is now obvious and only because he was forced to shut down the program. I guess because of lack of interest, very little was deposited as I can tell from the numbers invested.
I have been a member of For4Tune for some time, but never spent there. I was about to, and I was saved by the bell! Literally! On June, 30th, I sent an email for info on funding with Solid Trust Pay, I never received a reply, that’s because the program had already died by then. Had I done this last week, I would have been scammed again by Richard O’Neill.
Richard O’Neill has one of the most infamous reputations on the HYIP arena. So much so, that we named him Richard O’Steall! He is the in your face serial scammer that seems unstoppable. He keeps coming back, again, and again, and again. He has run like 20-something past scams!
This is the email he sent to For4Tune members just minutes ago:
Hello everybody!
FOR4TUNE as you may know is on the rocks! And the admins have upped
and left town! Leaving me to pick up the pieces![]()
You can collect your for4tune refunds here:

* Be quick; first come first served!
* If you think this isn’t legit; you soon will!!
But all is not lost; smile; you’re about to make a lot of money!
(After I refund you) Welcome to Richy-Invest!Rich
http://www.richy-invest.com
As you can tell by this email, his new program, which he admitted to, is Richy Invest. This program is obviously a jab at past members who have been scammed by him. There will always be those who will continue to spend in his scams, that’s because they come in early, spend a little, and make their money before Richard is gone in about 5- to 6-months.
Stay away from this scammer, it’s the best you can do.
Another reason not to put all your money into one program. Diversify and spread your money.

As of now I am in Nano Money Corp.
Nano Money Corp. has been running for more than three-years! So my spend here goes against all I believe about HYIPs. HYIPs come and go, but on occasion you get one that outlasts and runs for years. Nano Money Corp. is one of these HYIPs.
Run on a dedicated server with DDoS protection.
They offer three investment plans:
1. The Pool Program: $20.00 up to $1000.00. Paying a daily profit of 1.20% for a period of 30 working days, principal back on expiry.
2. The Venture Program: $1000.01 up to $5000.00. Paying a daily profit of 1.50% for a period of 50 working days, principal back on expiry.
3. The Fund Program: $5000.01 up to $100000.00. Paying a daily profit of 1.80% for a period of 100 working days, principal back on expiry.
4. The VIP Program: by personal invitation only.

Today I spent into PanaMoney. Hopefully, this one will last long enough for me to recoup my spend and then some.
PanaMoney has been around since last year, so I will not be reviewing it. There is plenty of info on this one on the forums and in interviews.
PanaMoney is run on a dedicated server with DDoS protection, which is always a plus in my book.
PanaMoney claims to be trading in the Forex market; of course, we have all heard this before, haven’t we? They do, however, have a unique members’ area where you can actually select from a list of currency pair trades you want your money to be traded in. How real this translates to the Forex market is anyone’s guess. They also protect your principal spend and cover loses with a Safety Fund.
I think I have a great chance of getting my money back here.

I have placed SigmaTral on Waiting status as I have not been paid since yesterday and no reply to my email asking for an explanation. Already, also, several members have stated that they haven’t been paid either and one has stated that his Liberty Reserve withdrawal was processed but no money showed up in his account. I’m keeping a close tab on this one.
Update on SigmaTral (9:22 AM): I haven’t been paid since yesterday morning. And some members since 3-days ago who deposited via STP, like me. Don’t spend on this one. It’s a scam now.
No reply to my email asking for explanation.
Gold Nugget Invest sent us a long awaited newsletter:
Greetings to our Valued Customers & Clients:
We here at GNI hope your summer is progressing in a fun and joyful fashion, devoid of any mishaps but with pockets filled from your successful investing with your trusted partners here in the world of Sports Arbitrage.
While we haven’t made any bold announcements of late, that is not for any of you to think that things are not happening behind the scene(s). Todd had an unfortunate mishap a few weeks back and his recovery has necessitated our delay in rolling out some long-anticipated customer service enhancements. Do not despair, these enhancements and upgrades have only been delayed, NOT canceled or terminated; not a chance!
I. The engineers of Black Lotus in Southern California have advised us of some upcoming improvements as follows:
“Service affecting network maintenance scheduled for June 30th to July 1st, 2009!
Start: 06/30/2009 17:00 U.S. Pacific
End: 07/01/2009 11:00 U.S. Pacific
Black Lotus engineers will be retrofitting the Elite/Enterprise network at Los Angeles, CA to completely migrate customers away from legacy network equipment and to install a new distribution router with additional capacity and redundancy.
During this window there is the potential for a one-time outage of 15 – 30 minutes network wide and intermittant outages throughout the window as routing and physical paths are manipulated.”
The bottom line, this is all good stuff that will enable us to provide better service, better security and happy customers!!!
These scheduled times can and will be subjected to possible delays and or schedule slips. What this means is there is the distinct potential for a one-time (or more) 15-30 minute outage spanning the entire network. Further, there is an equally distinct possibility of local, intermittent outages as routing and physical paths are manipulated to ensure optimum usability network-wide.
We encourage those of you who remain in contact with their uplines/downlines to pass the word, thus avoiding the anticipated “panic” that will invariably engross those newer members who are not aware of our steadfast committment to remain the most trusted on-line program that ever existed on the World Wide Web.
II. Some of you continue to swim in frustration over the inaccessability of being able to login to your GNI back office. Some common obstacles consist of the following:
a. PROPER EMAIL REGISTRATION. You need to register a Google (Gmail) email with us. Those of you who registered with Safe-mail, SBC, Cox, Verizon, Comcast, AOL, Yahoo, Juno so-on and so-forth need to obtain a Google, email address, send it to Todd via Ticket who will change this in the system.
NOTE: For those of you who have a significant investment, Todd WILL be asking for verification information such as an address. Those of you who have registered with nothing but a first name, are not giving him much to use for verification purposes. It is suggested less attention be paid to your referral issues and more attention be given to your own account to avoid the hassle(s) and potential loss of investment due to your willful neglect of complete registration information.
b. PROPER LOADING OF THE PIN CODE. Todd receives an awful lot of tickets from plan participants who indicate they have input eight or nine PIN codes “and it still is not accepting it….”
The procedure which ensures you are inputting a valid PIN code is quite simple. All that is required is for you, the user to ensure the GNI Browser page which calls for an updated PIN code remains open while you open your Gmail to obtain the PIN code. That’s it!
Should you properly get to the point where your GNI browser asks for the pin code but you close out the page or you arrow back to get to your email or anything similar to this, you will render the PIN code stale and it won’t work.
To clarify, once the GNI browser page asks for a one-time PIN Code, keep that window (page) open, open a new page to access your email to obtain the PIN code, cut and paste the PIN code and enter it into the box and you should be good to go.
c. Some of you, regardless of your actions and efforts, cannot successfully enter their account. In a situation such as this, you have sent multiple tickets, changed your email(s), communicated to us the roadblocks you face; we will do our best to accomodate you and prepare appropriate refunds.
In the event you are making this request inside your thirty day lockin period, do not anticipate any refund until such time your lockin period has expired.
III. REAL-TIME CUSTOMER SUPPORT. Phone (Skype) Support is forthcoming. The number has been secured (and you’re going to like it); couple weeks time
IV. OUR OWN, PRIVATE FORUM. The skeleton has been installed and is being modified to accomodate the needs of the GNI Global community. We’re going to try to accomodate those of you whose first language is NOT English, are not as technically knowledgeable or whose investment literacy is a bit less than others, all in the spirit of an enhanced GNI experience. It will be moderated by members with on-going support by GNI admin.
All of this, baring any unforseen “mishaps” will be up and running, certainly before the end of July, probably much sooner.
In the meanwhile we wish all of our US domiciled clients a very joyous 4th of July Holiday, nothing less to our world-wide client base. Be safe, and always remember that 97.5% of the global community lives below the poverty level. Find a charitable cause and support it. The good feelings that resonate throughout is indescribable.
All the best,
Robert, Jurgen, Todd and the GNI Team

Ad Ventures 4U
The admin of Ad Ventures 4U, Steve Smith, sent members an email hours ago. In it he announces that his mother, who suffered a stroke is doing better, but doesn’t have use of her left side, mentally she seems to be OK. We hope she feels better soon.
On a more positive note, the Gold site is complete, the testing the details of mailing and receiving gold is not. So it seems we will have to continue to be patient and wait and see when the Gold site is finally ready for business.
FX-Interest
The admins of FX-Interest continue to update (if you want to call them that) its members, after they folded, with more promises of refunds. Refunds that to tell you the truth can’t be verified, and because of previous lies, I continue to be skeptical. But here is their report on last week’s Yahoo! Messenger chat. Apparently, they kept everyone waiting for the the second one that day, not surprising, it seems the way FX-Interest continues its disdain for its former members. Lack of time for us? You kept our money all this time, lied to get it, when they knew full well that they were in trouble, and kept it without paying interest. And they have no time for us? Typical of all the bullshit they keep spraying on us.
I am still waiting to be sent the June 16th update as promised to me on the chat. I am not going to get it, and I really don’t care, it’s just more bullshit. I just wanted to see if they would follow-up, but as typically FX-Interest, they promise, promise, and promise, and make more promises that they couldn’t give a shit about keeping. No company can claim not to have time for their clients/members, either you make the time or you don’t have a business.
I for one will never do business with their payment processor, and if they think that after treating its members the way they have that most of them will in the future is ludicrous. Right now members don’t speak out negatively because they hope to receive their refunds, speaking out now could jeopardize that.
Dear All,
We had a chat with users who came for chat on 23rd on 11AM GMT for 1.5 hour and unfortunately because of an urgent meeting we couldn’t join you for 5PM GMT. Please accept our apologies.
Here are the questions were asked:
1- Are you still refunding and what is the situation with that? Yes we are refunding to all according to the priority and announcements we had before but because some of the members who got paid didn’t want to be announced publically we didn’t name them in our last announcements.
2- What is the news for the new processor? We are going to submit our application to the government in a couple of weeks (as you know a company like us with some problems needs time to settle down and provide the fees for governments, providing enough documents,…). After that we would let you know about the share prices, moving your funds to it,… gradually by emails. We need to decide about all of these according to the laws and board decision.
3- Why Fx-I site is not up yet? We are too busy with everything else and as all of its files were infected including the forum, we couldn’t rectify the problem and as we haven’t had the backup, we may need to build a new forum soon. But don’t worry all of the records of your accounts are here.
4- Why don’t you answer the emails? We receive a lot of emails daily and as some of our staffs are gone we cannot reply to each and every emails. But if you have any requests in your email, we will do that for you, but you may not receive your response. We may not respond to the emails which asks for the payment sooner, because we are refunding according to the priority we announced.
5- What are the features of the new venture? In the new payment processor we would have a PP like AlertPay and so, and we may add some features like paying a little interests on the money which is in your account.
6- Could you please let me know when my turn is? No, because it depends on the budget we have for each month and according to the priority we would pay to them. So it is not possible to tell you your turn.
7- Could you please let us have such times to have a chat? Sure we would have it regularly now onwards and would let you know by email for the next times.
8- How often will you update us by email? It depends on our workload but we try to update you with any news and payments at least once a month.
These are the most questions were asked on 23rd June 2009 by the users. Hope these are clear enough and useful. We are refunding and will let you know by email at least once a month.
Please don’t worry and we appreciate all of your patience and understanding.
Thank you for your patience and sorry for any inconvenience.
Best Regards,
Fx-Interest Team
