Topic: Before you invest in HYIP (Read 1184 times)

For goodness sakes you are bumping this dead thread from 2014 and your account be Hero member, sometimes I can't imagine things like this. Hyip investment or not, people are already used to the system and they have fallen in love with it, meaning nothing new about this dead thread you just resurrected now. When you don't believe in a project another person will believe.

Before you invest in a HYIP, don't. They are all stupid. Best case scenario you are stealing money from other users. Worst case scenario, you lose everything: your money, your friends, your self-respect, and potentially end up being interviewed by federal investigators some day.

For everybody who still thinks HYIPs are a good idea if done "properly," you should really learn about Ethconnect. A bunch of people bought into their ICO thinking they would definitely get paid because they got in first. However, nobody got anything. They didn't even distribute their Ethconnect tokens! It was a giant, straight up fraud, everybody who put any money into it lost it all, and any HYIP is just as likely to be the same.

read this topic written on 2014. recently tried this hyip theme aaand it is still the same - the same rules, same people who invest in it, but the funniest thing is that I found some projects which are still working from 2014 maybe some of them are worth to invest in at least one time?

Newer HYIPs like ETH Revoltuion are really different: they last and they pay

hyips is risky investment do go with this if you don't want lose something from your account simple way is don't join hyips

Sometimes. But almost always you will lose money
90% hyips made by schoolboys and will close in 1 day, because scripts in public and everyone can make it

not everytime..! you can lose even if you invest on the same day of launch ..! but if you want to take the risk you can just don't invest money you can't afford to loose ..!

They are good investment during the first stage

well i did some internet marketing a long time ago, and mainly in selling ebooks about how to make money in internet marketing.
and from that i know that the creators of these ebooks basicly play the game of selling new stuff all the time to each others customers.
theres good money in that if you play their game and get to know the right people, and i`m under the impression there is something simmular going on in the hyip world.

but i could be wrong offcourse. maybe they are all kiddies trying to scam people.

You are absolutely correct, there is nothing to object

Agree,
high risk = high profit
low risk = low profit

Forex is very risky, bitcoin is very risky, HYIP ..... if you want to earn money you need to take risk

HYIP is very risky investment program, better don't join

I have some experience but it was only fun and "gambling". But if you follow these rules you can earn something. There are many strategies out there.

The rate of scam in HYIP industry is way to high , because a 14years old can launch his own hyip and can claim anything..! but he'll fail..! many times even the guys investing first lose..! some of the hyips are just made with the intentions of scamming people like you..! and don't even complete a full cycle before scamming.

Anti-HYIP activist Nancy covered most of this in a very good post:

I put some money in TopVest on the first day of operations. On the very last day of the 6 day cycle they blocked withdrawals. It's not about getting in and out as soon as possible with profit, it's just about getting out with what you put in. period.

Topvest was the same site as RO-Invest a sure sign of a scam. So even if you are fortunate enough to get in fast, you can still walk away with the same as you had to begin with.

They just aren't worth the time in my opinion.

- don't join HYIPs

do you have experience with investing in hyips? and do you use them to make money?

i have been looking at them for a few weeks now. and it seems to me if you know how to play the game and get to them early theres a good chunk of money to be made.

if you do use them succesfully maybe we can work something out.

HYIP - High Yield Investment Programs

If you want to invest wisely and steer clear of frauds, you must get the facts. Use extreme caution making an investment based solely on what you read in an online newsletter or bulletin board posting, especially if the investment involves a small, thinly-traded company that isn't well known (most HYIP sites are correspond to the last one). For instance, you'll need to:

- firstly, look at the selected HYIP site, read all the information carefully, watch for the spelling errors, no real investment company will have the site with a bad design, spelling errors and on a free server!

- check whether the company info is unique or it has been stolen from the others. Many fraud HYIP sites administrators do not bother themselves entering the unique company info, they just leave the one the script developers left as a draft.

- check the HYIP forums and monitoring sites, look what people tell about the selected HYIP. Check many of them, one is not enough, and trust the majority, the scam HYIP admins cannot pay just every monitoring site for the fake information. Vice versa maybe the monitoring site asked the HYIP admin to pay for a good vote and he refused and got a bad vote only for that, so try to navigate the information wisely.

- check all contact information of HYIP. You can found domain registration information for most HYIPs. You can call to provided phone and check if this phone related to company.

- check what security use site. If site use: SSL certificate, DDoS protection, licensed script, dedicated server.

- try to find how many funds admins spending on the system maintains. Good design, custom or licensed script, many monitors listing the site, banner/text ads advertisement. Life time of the program depends on money spent on system maintains.

- check out the people running the company and try to find out if they've ever made money for investors before.

- be wary of promises of quick profits, offers to share "inside" information, and pressure to invest before you have an opportunity to investigate.

- be aware from programs with huge profits. It is impossible to make more that 5% per day. Offers to share "inside" information and pressure to invest before you have an opportunity to investigate.

- do not invest more than you can loose. Do not invest your last money.

- do not place all your money to one program. Invest in at least 5 programs. If one program will close you will receive profits from others.

And always remember, no financial investment is "risk free" and a high rate of return means greater risk. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!
