Risk of Online investment

First and foremost you must understand that the reward is directly proportionate to the risk. That is what speculation is all about; you cannot expect to make a substantial return if you are not prepared to accept a certain amount of risk. Any experienced financial speculator will tell you that successful speculation involves being able to quantify risk. The amount of risk attached to any particular HYIP, is for the most part, unquantifiable.
Many of the genuine small Internet based HYIP's are considered high risk, as they are not particularly well thought out programs, often with no sound methodology from which to generate returns. They receive thousands of small deposits from participants, which only adds to the problem. The larger specialist programs, many of which are not plugged on the Internet, can be much safer in many respects, as they are usually run by professional traders who know how to generate returns using sound trading methods. They keep a low profile due to the risk of interference by some authorities, but this does not mean that they are not genuine investment programs.

There is yet another type of HYIP trading program which allows you to set up your own offshore company and a bank account, the funds are then traded through this account, but the program administrator and/or trader never has any kind of access to your funds, he/she only has the authority to place the trades on the account. This method of funding is without a doubt the safest that is available to the HYIP investor. The only risk is that which is attached to the trading method used to generate the returns, although most professional traders will operate with specific risk parameters in mind.

The program administrators should also be forthcoming about how they intend to generate the quoted returns. You should be extremely wary dealing with any HYIP that refuses to disclose details about their system, after all they are asking you to show good faith in them by investing your hard earned money, so they should at least be willing to tell you how they intend to generate the quoted returns. Once you know how a program works, you are in a much better position to be able to assess the viability of that program. For example there is one HYIP that claims very high returns from investing in domain names. This type of HYIP might have been feasible a few years ago, but is highly unlikely to be profitable these days. There have been many high profile court rulings against domain name speculators over the last few years, and registering domain names is hardly an area that requires specialist knowledge and expertise.

As a rule the larger the sum of the investment the safer the program is likely to be, assuming that you are afforded adequate capital security. The frauds are usually the ones that request small investments and membership fees, as well as offering referral fee arrangements. Programs operating in this manner can draw in a greater number of participants in a short time before shutting down. The larger programs tend to be much more professional, with their focus on making steady returns for investors and taking a small part of those returns as their profit. Most of the larger programs also appear to understand the need for frequent client communications, which is often an area of complaint amongst many of the smaller HYIP's. Usually your only source of regular information is the HYIP website (assuming they have one), and in many cases these websites are not updated as frequently as they should be.

Rules in HYIP

The Analysis and a Choice of HYIP Programs
While choosing a HYIP program you should follow the following rules.
Rule Number 1
Never put all your money into one small hyip program, regardless of how good it looks, or how great you have been told the program is, especially if the only means of communication with them is via anonymous email. These programs if they have a website will usually have a free website from Homestead, Tri-pod, Geo-Cities, etc. This goes for almost all of the frauds, but can also apply to very professional looking websites that give you virtually no contact point information. If you intend to invest a large sum, then you should always make sure that the program in question offers some sort of capital security. In this case, you should also try to arrange a tete-a-tete meeting with the principals. If you have an up line sponsor, ask them if they have this information.
Rule Number 2
Carry out as much due diligence as possible on that particular hyip program. If you are coming in with $1 million, you will be able to satisfy yourself about legitimacy with irrefutable proof, because you will be dealing directly with the principals. Usually an investor with $100,000 can secure a program utilizing a sole signatory account, through an offshore trading structure, and be privy to more info, but this situation is not always the norm. As for the rest of you? Forget it.

There are no public registries, no BBB listings, no bankers or brokers who will confirm anything. For the small investor, this business is based on trust and personal relationships: you know me, I know 'A', 'A' knows 'B', who works with manager 'C', who knows the trade facilitator 'D, etc. You can only do the best you can with the information that is available on that program. Do not contact any regulatory authorities to see if any complaints have been made, as this may simply result in an otherwise sound program being shut down. Use the forums that are listed in the appendices to gather as much info as you can and make an educated decision. What you are looking for is impartial advice, which unfortunately is hard to find on the HYIP forums, although the Speculator Pro website is completely impartial, so make good use of it.
Rule Number 3
Once again do not put all your eggs in one basket when it comes to the smaller Internet based HYIP's. You should diversify by placing a portion of your investment capital into many different programs so if one venture goes sour you still have the others intact to produce income. Many small programs will close down. Funding two to three small hyip programs with large amounts is suicide. Focus on the overall plan, not on a program or two, unless you have found a single large hyip program that offers a good return coupled with capital security. Build your smaller hyip program list up to no less then ten, it may take time, but this is the correct way to go about investing in small Internet HYIP's. If you want to achieve a lot of success, get your mind off the investments you are in, and get focused on your plan. Your ultimate goal is to eventually fund 15-20 paying programs, as soon as some pay out you can widen your program list. Concentrate on the plan not the programs.
Rule Number 4
With the smaller programs, you should aim to recoup your seed money from any one venture as soon as possible. Take your seed money back when you reach 2-1 or 3-1. Remain invested with their money and not yours from that point on. Too many small programs start out fine, we get comfortable with them and start putting extra money in before the returns from the last cycle come back, and then they fail. Do not reinvest more money before you have been paid back, no matter how long it takes. A good rule to follow is to take your original capital back as soon as possible and only keep reinvesting half of the payout proceeds on each cycle.
Rule Number 5
Do not let large amounts accumulate in small programs; take smaller profits often. Even from the most stable smaller programs, take funds back often. Taking small amounts of profit along the way versus letting a larger amount accumulate before a program goes sour will allow you to see a profit instead of missing out on what you thought you had.
Rule Number 6
Do not jump into new programs right away. Truth is many hyip investment programs never make it through launch. Why would you waste your time promoting a program that had a month or two to go before you could ever sign someone up for it, assuming of course that the program even remains on schedule.

If it is good this week, it will be good next week or three months from now. Let the program establish a payout history with good customer service before investing money with them. With some exceptions, we do not join new programs right off the bat. If they are still around in another month and everyone who is participating is happy with the program, then it's time to take another look at it.
Rule Number 7
Do not jump the gun and start screaming swindle if a program experiences some problems early on. Allow some time for the administrative end to catch up with the trading and sign-ups, as enrolments escalate. Most programs with small administrative teams have no concept of how many people can enter a program in the early stages. It does not take long to get in a real pickle admin wise.

E-currencies

E-Currencies are a digital currency that you can use on the internet to buy and sell goods, services and other things. It is exactly the same as normal money, but in a digital form. Why do people use electronic currencies such as e-gold, netpay, evocash and others for investments? The answer is obvious, electronic money is easy to use and to transfer. It is easy to manipulate by investors and administrators of HYIP programs to direct it to the most perspective direction. Thus electronic money is widely spread in the Internet. It is much more difficult to lose, when you trust scammer, who will try to withdraw a code of your credit card or the password from an account with electronic money, i.e. electronic money are used for calculations only through a site of the system and there are no other processings. Thus it is easy enough to transfer money from one system to another. And one more advantage is the anonymity that provides over any other currency because all you are is a number. You don't have to provide any contact details if you don't want.

Use the following currencies while working in HYIPs
- http://www.e-gold.com/
- http://www.netpay.tv/
- http://www.e-bullion.com/
- http://www.StormPay.com
- http://www.Pecunix.com

Each of them has the advantages due to which it has become wide spread.

Funding your e-Currency account is very easy. You can use a bank wire, money order, use your credit card or send a cheque. Your account will usually be funded within 48 hours.

Choosing the right exchanger is crucial as there are many scams out there. Recommended exchangers are:

How To Use E Gold ?

Now that you have learnt quite a bit about virtual currencies,its time to actually work with one!
As for our purpose we will consider only Egold because in most HYIP investments Egold is the preferred currency used for investing.And also Egold is the oldest and largest e-currency available today.
Moving towards the first step,you need to open an egold account to use it. Opening Egold account is absolutely free of any charge and available worldwide In order to open an online account ,go to the official website of Egold(www.e-gold.com) and click on new account link..You will be taken to its account opening page.Just fill up all the required fields and set your passphrase(or in other words set your password)The passphrase should be around 10 characters long and for safety use both numeric & alphanumeric digits..This passphrase is a very secret number and you must not share it with anybody.And another thing,Egold does not send your passphrase in welcome email.So try to keep a copy of your passphrase in a safe place immediately when you set it,or else you may forget the passphrase and will not be able to access your account.
You can open multiple accounts with egold but provide valid information during opening your accounts.After signing up for a new account Egold will send a email (at the email id provided during registration) containing Egold account number.You will have to use this account number during all transactions.Keep your account number secret(it is just like your credit card number!)
After opening account you will need to fund it so as to make any investments/payments. Egold does not accept any direct currency deposits to fund client’s account.In order to fund account,take the help of third party exchange services. Transctions with digital currency exchangers is usually carried out by wire transfer, credit card, postal transfer, Western Union or check. It is important to use best and reliable e-currency exchangers to buy e-gold and fund you accounts.Funding may also occur by exchanging other e-currencies like EVOcash, netpay and paypal into E-gold.Charges may be around 3-5% for trading in dollars trough a wire transfer. If you rather like to use your credit card you should be prepared to pay higher fees.To find a good exchanger just make a research on google or look into forums.Make sure that the exchanger is a reliable one.
After funding egold account you are ready to make transactions.In order to make an investment you will need the account number to which you need to make payment to.In HYIPs there will usually be a payment button which will redirect to E-gold website.In such cases you will have to enter your account number and login with passphrase.Then send the required amount to the account number of the HYIP owner.There is no fee for sending money.
Receiving money is automatic.Whenever somebody makes a payment to you ,it is funded in your account number instantly.Just login into account with passphrase and look in the account balance link.It will contain how much egold is present in your account.In the transactions history tab you can find information about all payments received or sent.
There is a fee of 1%(maximum0.5$) in order to receive payments & a maintenance fee of 1% of the mean day balance per year.
Next move on to read our article on enhancing security measures while using your Egold account.

The Concept Of Test Spend In HYIP Investment

Test spend is a wonderful concept that you must understand and practise while making any HYIP investments.So lets begin this discussion on understanding test spend:
What is Test Spend? Test spend can be explained as a small initial deposit made in a new HYIP to assertain its viability.
What is its importance? Test spend is a very useful method to determine whether any HYIP is good or not.Whenever you come across any new HYIP then the first deposit should be a test deposit to see how the HYIP is working and deduce a conclusion about it.Since a HYIP is new,you probably don't know whether it is a paying or a scam programme.So making a test spend can tell you the reality of the HYIP.If the HYIP is genuine then you will most probably get all the promised interests and customer service with the test spend.If all goes right then you can move further to making your real investment and reap the products.This step of making test spend assures that the programme is paying at the current time.
And if the HYIP is a scam then you will not get your returns.So don't make any further investments.Thus you are also prevented from being scammed of a larger amount(the larger amount you had initially planned to invest in this particular HYIP)
What to expect from a test spend? Basically if the HYIP is genuine then you must expect 100% customer support,total(& timely!) interest returns,and any other facilities that the particular HYIP may promise to its investors.
What things to monitor after making a test spend? It is very important to monitor all returns after a test spend.Look for the following:
-Is the HYIP giving back your interests?If so then is the payment made at right time?If the HYIP's payment system is automatic then you must be getting your returns without requesting for it.If the payment is manual,then once(or more times) request for your interest and see if the
payment is actually being made.Many times the payment is not made at all (in both automatic or manual methods).It is best to avoid further investing in it.In some cases the HYIP may declare that it is not able to make payments due to some genuinr problems and would soon resume payments.In such cases wait till the specified time and see if the payments have begun..Most of the cases such HYIPs make false claims about not being able to make payments due to some reason but still continue receiving investments and then scam away!So you must not invest more till you are fully sure that the HYIP has started paying regularly.
-Next thing to monitor is their customer care service.See if they make prompt replies to your querries.Also some HYIps offer free online chat with the website administrators.Try to use it and see if its working!
Where to use test spend? It is usually advised that you make test spends only on HYIPs in which you intend to make large investments(say more than 100$)
How much to test spend? The test spend should be always minimum.Thus invest only that much amount which can be accepted according to the particular HYIP's policies on minimum investment.
How much time to monitor? You should monitor atleast one week or more as per the situation and the particular HYIP's payment schedule.

How To Earn Full Time Income With HYIPs

Its very possible to earn a full time income through HYIPs.But this is largely not recommended because-
HYIP returns are very unpredictable.If you lose all your money,you cannot get it back because it is difficult to trace the scammer.Even egold authorities cannot help you with that .If a case is filed in the court then legal proceedings usually take a long time for verdict & by that time your lawyer fees would have been more than the amount you claimed for!
Investing in HYIPs is like investing in gambling.You never know when you lose,thus there can never be peace of mind or job satisfaction.
And I think there is a little population who actually make full time earning through HYIPs(most of them are HYIP monitoring/HYIP related website owners and the rest few are those whom you see in forums as active senior posters)
Therefore I suggest that you keep HYIP investing as a part-time income source only

Recovery Chances Of Your Investment

Unfortunately there is no back-up if ever you get scammed.This is mainly because of the system flaw.Let me explain this in detail
Now supposing that you invest some amount in a HYIP and after sometime you suddenly discover that you have been scammed of your money.You would probably straightway make a complain to egold authorities about this stolen money and request either a pay back from the HYIP owners account or ask for the HYIP owner’s personal contact information from their records to enforce legal proceedings.But both in vain,egold can’t help you in either of these matters.
If you had made a large investment say a few thousand dollars) then you would probably file a case in court against the HYIP owner.But from where do you find the scammer,because he might have provided with all false contact information!Next,you have to wait for a long period(over a year) to get verdict from court.And by that time the lawyer fees would have been mor than the amount for which you claimed for!
So it is always best said-
“Don’t invest what you can’t afford to lose”

Gettin Scammed In Bad HYIP Investment

Unfortunately there is no way to assure that you won’t lose money when you join a HYIP.Basically don’t expect to get back your money,but you can definitely take your revenge by labeling the HYIP owner as a scammer and making an online(free) suit against him.You can also warn other innocent investors to be aware of that particular HYIP. If you find a HYIP site and wish to invest in,then you may follow the following steps-

Use Whois Lookup sites to find out the Web Owner details information such as IP address, Web hosting company name& address, name& registered address of the HYIP website or country of origin,etc.After you find these ,save the information for future use.

When you make payments to this HYIP then it is very important that you keep all confirmation emails containing information about amount of money deposited ,to whom you paid & on what date you paid. This is very important testimonial required whenever you want to file a case.

If you got deceived then The first things that you should do is to report about it throughout the internet.You may report it in sites such as HYIPnews.com,etc.Also make forum postings in as many forums as you can.Make sure you make a post in large forums like talkgold.com, HYIPdiscussion.com, moneymakergroup.com,etc.Be bold in your statements and give the actual details.I am sure people who read your report will definitely thank for your help.

Then report to egold authorities.Although they wont give back your money but still they may freeze the scammer’s egold account so that he cannot make any more transactions.Send complains to the web hosting company of the HYIP asking them strongly to suspend the hosting of that HYIP on charges of scamming.Try to give all your testimonials to convince the fact.

Finally make a fraud complaint to legal authorities.You can file a complaint at www.ifccfbi.gov the official website of the Internet Fraud Complaint Center, administered by the US National Bureau of Investigation and the National White Collar Crime Center.Any body can file a complaint(nationality is not a bar) and its absolutely free of cost.Once they receive your complaint then they will immediately start investigations and take any necessary action as required.

Simultaneously also make complaints to other similar authorities such as www.web-police.org, www.scamwatch.com, www.fraud.org.

By following the above steps you may not get back money but ofcourse you will feel satisfied by taking revenge and prevent others from falling into their scam hands!

Free HYIP Investment Stratergy For Investors

The key to a profitable hyip investment is just a single word-
“diversify”
It means you divide total investment among several different HYIPs so as to minimize risk.Investing in a single program is risky, because if the program collapses, you lose all your money. But if you put your money into many programs, if one of the programs fails, you will still have money in other programs.So by diversifying you virtually decrease the % of lost money in your portfolio.
Profits can still be made from investments in other HYIPs that are operating simultaneously.So it is quite possible that with a wide and wise portfolio you will always make a NET profit.
How wide should portfolio be?
It should be as wide as possible.For example if your total investment is around 500$ then portfolio should include atleast 5-10(or even more) different HYIPs.Invest about 50% in long term good old HYIPs and the rest 50% in new HYIPs.These may include –
Long term HYIPs are those that give around 1.5% daily and have a good track history over 1 year with good customer support,professional web design,etc.These are real HYIPs and actually pay customers.
New HYIPs include those who pay around 2-3% daily with unique professional web design & certain degree of reliability in other factors.
You may invest in ponzi schemes that give 3-5% daily,but join them early to be in profit.
If you like to take more risk(or try your luck) then join in pure scam programmes such as 10% daily for 30 days or 25%daily for 5 days,etc.Join early during launch of the HYIP and invest very less amount to minimize risk.
Scam HYIPs are run on ponzi schemes.A ponzi is an illegal pyramid system in which higher level members are paid with the investments from newer members.They actually have a short life time.Many people lose money in these scams.Their websites are made from cheap old regular common templates(not a professional & unique design),anonymous contact information,give high interest rates(>3% daily is suspected as a ponzi),have an attractive referral system,etc.

The average life cycle of ponzi HYIPs can be stated as:

Extra Long term HYIPs(ponzi & real HYIPs)
Such HYIPs pay about 1-1.7% daily or around 25% monthly interests.They usually last for a long time over upto a year.Invest in these only if it has a good history for about a year because profit recovery is very slow.

Long term HYIPs(mostly ponzi)
They pay 2-3% daily and last for about 4-5 months.Some even last for more than half a year.These are the most optimal HYIPs for investing.

Medium term HYIPs(ponzi)
Pay around 4-7% daily.Last for about a month(sometimes 15 days) to a couple of months.

Short term HYIPs(ponzi)
Pay >10% daily.Last for few days to few weeks.

In conclusion of this section we can summarize:
Don’t invest in new programmes thet pay less interest(around 1%daily) with a poor non-professional web design,etc.It is a scam ponzi where you cannot get much profits because the programme may close before you are in profit over your principal.

Invest in long term HYIPs which pay less(around 1.7% daily),but have a unique professional web design,and other positive features of a good HYIP.Invest in them if they are already over 1 years old with good track history.

You may invest in HYIPs which pay 2-3% daily,have a professional template design & other good features.Chances to be in profit is good.

If you like to take risks then invest in ponzi schemes that pay 3-5% daily.But you should invest while the HYIP is still new so that chances of profit recovery is good before the HYIP closes.

Invest in still higher interest paying HYIPs if you can risk higher.HYIPs such as 7% daily for 60 days or 50% daily for 3 days are real scams.however if you are lucky,you can be in great profits provided you invested while the HYIP was just new.But risk factor is also very high and I suggest not to invest more than 40$-60$ in such high risk HYIPs.Its always better to avoid them.

Learn Due Deligence Required In HYIP Investment

Now that you have made some research on your HYIP programme,make a little more effort in checking out these following points.And if you are intending to become a part-time earner,then you must learn to gain efficiency in these following-

Begin with the website name of the HYIP.Check if the domain name is free or a paid domain name.Free domains names(sub-domains) are like HYIPname.something.com whereas paid domains are just HYIPname.com(note the extension may also be something else like .net,.info,etc).HYIPs hosted at free hosting are pure scam.Aviod them at all costs.

Look for contact info of the HYIP administrator.If the contact email is a free email account such as yahoo.com/hotmail.com/gmail.com,etc ,then resist yourselves from investing in such a HYIP.If a HYIP which cannot even afford to get a paid hosting/email, then how can it pay high interests to you!

See in the contact information if they give you a postal address/telephone number.if not,then may be the HYIP administrator does not want himself to be revealed to the public.Don’t trust him, the HYIP may not be very reliable.

Notice the websites design of the HYIP.If the design looks unique & professional,then it’s a good sign.If the site is built on similar looking common cheap template design with an indifferent faqs section,then probably the HYIP is not intended to last for a long time.A good HYIP should have a professional design with fast and well responsive customer care.

Read through all the text in their website.ther should not be much spelling errors.And they must not over-emphasize again & again over their high interest returns.

What is their interest return rate?Any HYIP which claims to pay more than 3% daily is probably a scam & will not last for a long time.Many HYIPs promise to pay high rates such as 10% daily for 30 days or 50% daily for 3 days,etc.They cannot possibly be genuine because it is not very possible to make so much profit from actual forex/trading in such little time!

Do they offer referral income?If so then this is a bad sign.Because giving referral money means asking investors to recruit others to their HYIP.If a HYIP is good then it will eventually gain reputation & people will invest in it without the help of referrers. Anyhow small referral money is usually given in many good HYIPs also.So a HYIP with no referral is a good sign.

Mark what is the minimum investment required.Many HYIPs have minimum investment as less as 1$,5$,10$ or so.Just ask yourself ,what kind of trading will any HYIP do with 1$ or 10$ from you! Actually they don’t trade at all.they are just ponzi schemes.Dont invest large amounts in them.A good HYIP should probably have a minimum investment of around 40$-60$.

Check out if the payments are daily,weekly or monthly.Daily payouts are best preferred because with every day of the programme’s existence,your chances to be in profit increase.

Many HYIPs offer investors with an internal account on their sites wherein the interest is deposited.Later on the amount is transferred to your online account(e-currency) on request.Others have no internal accounts and pay you directly to your egold account.The second is preferably better.

Check for whios information about the HYIP domain name.If you find irrelevant information such as random meaningless words or controversial contact information ,then it is better to avoid.The whois data shows domain name,registration date,expiration date,administrative contact,etc.If the HYIP says it has been in this HYIP industry for a long time,but domain name was registered a few months back only ,then its reliability is in doubt.You can use whois.ws to see the whois information for free.

Respectable HYIPs never spam or let their users spam with their links.So if you came to know about a HYIP through a spam email then be careful!

Look up in the about us/faq section in the HYIP site.If it provides a similar set of information that you see in most other HYIP sites then,it has got an uncustomised cheap script.The HYIP may not be genuine.

Email the administrator of HYIP and ask him questions like “how can you make pay so high interests?” , ”Who are you and where do you stay?” , “Can you have a telephonic conversation with me sometime?”
If the webmaster dosent bother to reply,or replies in a very awkward & non-convincing manner then he is trying to hide away facts from you.He will never say that he is running a ponzi scheme,but you have to identify it! You amy also ask for previous business history to evaluate the ability of the HYIP owner to make the desired profits with your investment.
You will get experienced in all these aspects as you spend more time in this HYIP world!So never worry if you cant make a final conclusion from accessing the above factors, you woll gradually learn them with time.

How To Choose A Good HYIP

From the previous mentioned sources,you may have got many HYIP programmes in which you would like to invest.But remember – never invest blindly.You must follow the following steps before you take any decision-

See if the HYIP is listed in any HYIP monitoring website.If so then what is the current status?If the status shows “not paying” or “problem” then straight stay away from it.You must also look for its feedback in forum of the respective monitoring site.Notice its rating, & the user votes will help you determine the standard of the HYIP.

Other large forums contain posts on many new and old HYIPs.Donate some time in researching through the posts made by members of that forum.This will give you many much needed information.Secondly you may also post you experiences of any previous HYIPs or even ask other members to help you in taking a decision.

Look into HYIP news data and stay away from those HYIPs which are declared/suspected scam.

Nevertheless to say, make a search on Google.You may use the following search terms-
HYIPname(the name of the HYIP which you want to research on),HYIPname paying, HYIPname scam,HYIPname problem,etc.

Soures Where You Can Find HYIPs

There are many resources where you can get information about HYIPs.But before I start enumerating them,a word of caution-
You may find several HYIP advertisements in your email inbox.Please don't give much importance to them as they are mostly scams(just think over why would any good and reliable HYIP engage in email scamming!)
Now coming back to our topic-
The major HYIP sources are HYIP monitor websites, discussion forums,news sites,advertisements in any other websites,etc.
HYIP monitors are websites that list a large number of HYIPs with their current status as paying/not paying.These monitor websites are owned by experienced HYIP investors who put their techniques of assessment to determine whether a HYIP is paying or not.I will give you a list of some 19 such websites arranged according to their alexa traffic ranking below:


www.goldpoll.com,www.hyipranks.com, www.hyipinvestment.com, www.hyip-recommendation.com, www.goldrater.com, www.aurumgames.com, www.gold-hosting.com, www.hyip-navigator.com, www.gohyip.com, www.myhyip.com, www.hyipfarm.com, 365money.com, www.allhyip.info, www.worldhyip.com, www.hyip-help.com, www.hyips-analysis.com , www.hyip-assistant.com, www.hyipranking.com, www.hyipexplorer.com, www.thehyips.info

Forums are another source of HYIP information .You will find several experienced and newbie investors hanging around HYIP status discussions in many forums.You can come to know about the personal experiences of other investors who have invested in any HYIP programme.Many investors also post scam reports on any HYIP they had invested in.This information is of great help to you and you must prevent investing in such warned HYIPs.Some good forums are like talkgold.com,HYIPdiscussion.com
You will find many active forums in almost all the HYIP monitor sites also.

HYIP news sites are also a good source of HYIP information.Thes sites collect latest HYIP information and give you a daily updated HYIP related news and issues.Scam news can also be found out in these sites.Some examples of HYIP news sites are like HYIPnews.com,HYIPmailer.com,etc.HYIP news is also a regular feature in many of the HYIP monitor sites.

Another large source of HYIP info are advertisements.You will find such ads almost everywhere on the web & in emails as scam messages.But ads can be very deceptive also.So you must make a detailed research on such advertised HYIPs before investing.

How To Get Started Earnings With HYIPs

Now that you have decided to invest,you have to make the following steps to get started-
Decide upon which HYIP(s) to invest in.
Make an online payment at the particular HYIP site through your e-currency account.
Receive payments (automatic/manual) to the same e-currency account.
Follow up maintenance.

The decision to join any particular HYIP depends upon many factors.You will learn about these later in this website.

Receiving and sending payments online are done through e-currencies.It is same as real money,except that is can be traded online only.You have to create an online account(for free!) and then fund it through your bank account or credit card.Then using this amount in your e-currency account you can do all the money transactions online.Some examples of e-currency accounts are like paypal,egold,stormpay,etc.Most of the HYIPs accept egold because of the flexibility of maintaining account.And once you have a e-currency account,you are on the threat of several hackers who can illegally get into your account and steal away all your money.So you must follow some security measures as mentioned in article section of this website.

Follow-up maintenance is important for any serious investor.it includes analysis and maintenance of personal HYIP records based upon the performance of each HYIP that you invest in.This will help you in becoming a well organized and well experienced HYIP investor.Details are described in article section later in this site

How Much Should You Invest In HYIPs?

This depends upon the following:
I-You just want to experiment with how HYIPs work
II-You want a part time income
III-You need a full time residual income
IV-You are a person who earns from online GPT programmes(online get paid to programmes)

For the category I-Invest 10$-50$ in few HYIPs to learn various aspects of investing in HYIPs, managing e-currencies, etc

For category II-Invest 100$-500$

For category III-Your hyip investment should atleast be>1000$

For category IV-I personally know how precious are those few dollars that you earn after several days of online surfing.Remenber me-
You will really feel dis-hearted if you get scammed of your hard earned little money by a bad HYIP.If at all you decide to invest,then you must learn all aspects of successful HYIP investing so that you can minimise loses.

If you are a newbie then definitely you fall in the first category.So start experimenting in this HYIP world with a investment of around 10$-50$.Even if you lose,I suppose you won’t become a bankrupt with such less money,but definitely you are going to learn something.

Then you are promoted to the next stage of making yourself earn a part time income.by this time you must have gathered some personal experience as well as borrowed some other’s experience in due time.You might have already made sufficient research work on HYIPs.So I assume you have quite a fair average knowledge about various HYIP aspects & can confidently take wise decessions on which HYIPs & how much to invest.The time required for such experience may be 6-10 months.

If you successfully make a part time earning for some stable months/years then you would like earning a full time earning.All those who make full time income through HYIPs become a kind of HYIP professionals.You will be having a lot of information and can easily spot possible scam HYIPs.You will have developed a personal investment portfolio and an analysis trend.Most probably you will also be helping others invest in HYIPs and giving them advices.You can use your full intelligence & expertise to invest and earn a decent full time income.
Whatever be,HYIP risks are never diminished.So there are chances that you can become bankrupt if you redirect to full time HYIP income without appropriate wit & long experience.It is best advised that HYIP investors restrict themselves to just part time earning,because investing with larger money is equally proportionate to losing larger in scams.

Know All The Risks Involved In HYIP Investing

HYIP is invariably associated with risks.There are around hundreads of new HYIPs opening every month but most of them are scams and only a few last for a bit long time.And many a times,even a good reliable programme turned hostile and taken away all your money.So your investment is quite vulnerable to getting scammed! But if you are wise(or lucky) you even make a hefty profit of it.Anyhow, you may be scammed once/many times either now or later.You must always even be ready to suffer a scam attack.And HYIP investor masters always say-
“Don’t invest which you cannot afford to lose”
So you should be ready to lose at all times because you can never say when a HYIP turns a scam & when you have lost money in any HYIP programme you cannot either complain your e-currency account authorities to repay back the lost money or file a case against the HYIP owner(because that would cost you more on lawer charges,etc. than invested amount!)
Investing in HYIP is almost like gambling-the only difference is that if you invest wisely then your chances of losing is reduced…

What Is HYIP Investing?

H High
Y Yield
I Investment
P Program
As obvious from its name,it is an investment programme where you get high returns(higher than your local bank accounts offer).High yield is attatched with high RISK also.These are usually online programmes which claim to process your invested amount in forex,offshore trading,commodities,etc and give away a portion of their profit as a high interest to its investors.Some of the HYIP programmes even work out the invested amount in other HYIP programmes and share the profit with you.
These are basically online programmes(websites) and they may provide a postal contact address where their office is located.
You invest in these HYIP online through their websites with e-currency.
HYIPs pay back interest to you on a daily/weekly/monthly basis as per their policies for a specific time period into your ecurrency account
You don’t have to do any kind of activity in return of interest money from them.Thus investing in HYIP means a passive income source where you just invest and sit back & relax while extra money is flowing to you.

It sounds quite very attractive!But there’s the caution:
This passive income system is associated with a huge range of risks,because maximum of these programs are just scams which collect hyip investment from visitors and then close down their HYIP programme,and there is no profitable way to get back your money once you are scammed.
But when you have become an experienced investor,you can easily spot out bad scam HYIPs.Good HYIPs also exist and you may even make profit with scam HYIPs by intelligent investing.
Let me give an example of imaginary HYIP-
3% daily for 50 days
Min deposit-5$
Max deposit-5000$
Referral bonus-5% on all 1st level referral investments
Payment- paid daily,automatic
Payment methods-egold,stormpay

This imaginary HYIP is explained below:

And supposing you invest 50$, then this patricular HYIP will pay 1.5$ daily for 50 days(or in other words you will get 75$ after 50 days)The minimum & maximum deposit that can be made is 5$ and 5000$ respectively.This HYIP has automatic payouts,so you will get paid daily automatically in e-currency account without requesting for your payouts.The e-currencies accepted are egold and stormpay only.And you will get a referral benefit of 5% on your referred investors.In referral system,after joining the particular HYIP you will be given a unique referral url.If somebody else invests in this HYIP by following your special referral url then the HYIP will give you a gift of 5% on the amount invested by this new member.So this is an extra profit that you get in addition to your regular interests.
