Ama-Zone = E-Gold?

I am clearing my bookmark links of the old HYIPs I invested. As a practice, I just click to see what becomes of the site. Whether it still exists or morphs into something else, you know.

And what a surprise I have after clicking this old link to Ama-Zone. A phishing site for E-Gold? You must be kidding me.

I played around clicking the links on the site. It's using a frame to pull the real pages from E-Gold, so you get the whole works including the turing number. I'm sure Ama-Zone will intercept your data once you push the button to request for your E-Gold account information. And you know of course the next minute your E-Gold will be hacked.

Not a particularly sophisticated phish site. It doesn't duplicate everything from the real stuff. I don't feel anyone will really get conned here. Still, you never know. Anyway, you have been warned.

FeederFund: New program plus some

FeederFund introduced a new Associated Program a week back. Know as the "Leopard Fund", it is a business loan opportunity paying interest up to 5% per month with principal guaranteed. The fund is domiciled in the US with full disclosure. How much more secure can you get from a fund?

Interested but no account? No worry. Click this FeederFund link to sign up for a free account. You can then log in to find out more details on Leopard Fund. While you log in, don't forget to check out the other funds.

One small problem. Don't expect confirmation messages on sign up and suchlike. Their email system is acting up. They will be working on it once they are on the new server.

Did I say "new server"? :) Guess now is a good time to tell you that FeederFund are changing servers early Dec 2005. So if you got access problem, you know what's happening. They don't expect the access problem to last beyond 5 Dec 2005 though.

Safe-Holdings not safe anymore?

I didn't get my weekly payout this past Friday. And I can't access Safe-Holdings for the last 2 days. Got the "www.safe-holdings.com could not be found" error message.

A check around some HYIP forums confirmed this is not my problem alone. Like me, other investors can't access the web site since Friday too. So, is Safe-Holdings a goner?

I certainly hope not. I've been getting good returns for the last 4 weeks, recovering practically 50% of my initial spend. In fact, I recovered 60% with a boost of referral commission last week. With such good returns, who in their right mind wouldn't want the program to continue?

Since the admin didn't post any status update in the forum he frequents, speculation abounds. Some say the down time is due to a site revamp. Some say it's a goner. One investor pointed out that because of the unusual good returns, that's why the program can't last. A hind sight which seems to pop up always. But when the going is good, nobody seems to remember this. Funny, isn't it?

It will be a pity if Safe-Holdings is gone forever. It had such great payouts. I'm fine even if it's gone though. Because when I invest, I always treat the money as goner. Plus I've actually gotten back 60% of my spend.

I only feel sorry for my referral - whoever s/he is. S/he just invested and this has to happen. What luck!

R-YIP: Change the game

There's a new kid in town: R-YIP. He wants to change the ball game. Why?

We were tired of seeing ridiculous claims of 5%, 10% and even 15% daily at other programs in this genre. Those systems are just big games with nothing financially solid backing it... and they disappear within weeks of opening. If you've participated in these programs before, then we're sure you're quite tired of it too. Thus the "reality" concept of R-YIP was born.

And these are what the new kid claims to offer:

  • Realistic returns on member deposits of 1% to 2% each business trading day
  • Sustainable outlook for the long term based on research and development by the finest minds in the industry
  • A system backed by a solid and stable income that ensures growth and rewards for the R-YIP members
  • Profits and Commission credited to your R-YIP account daily
  • A major change in this program genre by truly offering long-term and realistic returns

When it comes to any new HYIP program, I normally wait and see. But this one, I jumped ahead to join and invest. Because when the kid says "finest minds" in the industry, I did recognize a name or two whom I'll give credit. And heck, with a minimum of $1 to start, it's really not going to burn a big hole in my pocket.

Oh, yeah. I've forgotten to tell you what "R-YIP" stands for: Reality Yields Internet Profits. What? You thought it was "Rest Yourself In Peace"?

Wanted: {e-hyip.us}. Dead or Alive.

{e-hyip.us} paid me for the last time on 1 Nov 2005.

The web site is still around, but that of course is no help. There isn't much information on the web site to tell you what's happening. So I just went into my own speculation.

They have made 60 payments into my E-gold account. So maybe they stop at 60 payments? Then again, my profit is exactly 40%. Is the return only 140% inclusive of initial spend?

HYIP Farm seems to be in the know though. On 31 Oct 2005, Edwin, the administrator, hinted that {e-hyip.us} would shut down. So looks like he knew something but he's not revealing anything more.

Wanted: More information on {e-hyip.us}. Is it dead or alive? Leave your comments please. Anyway, now is definitely not the time to go spend your Christmas money there, don't you agree?

Safe-Holdings: 14% and 12%

I'm totally impressed with Safe-Holdings.

Only two weeks with the program, and what have I gotten? 14% return on the first weekly payout, and 12% on the second. And am I lucky or what? 14% is the highest weekly return so far! What a way to start my journey with the program.

In its short life of 17 weeks or about 4 months, this HYIP has produced an average weekly return of 9.65%. Anukan, the program administrator, puts the expected profits down as 4% to 16% per week. He has definitely been on target.

The average weekly return translates into 1.93% daily with a 5 trading-day week. On a monthly basis, we get about 38.6% per month. Wow! Now that's no mean feat, I reckon. You should get your initial spend back within 3 months if Anukan is consistent.

Safe-Holdings started life on 28 Jun 2005. It is a one-man show by Anukan, a full time trader, investor, and punter. This is no scamming HYIP. Anukan provides screen shots of his trading accounts. There are many happy investors with their "paid" posts too in its forum. Like me, they have received their Friday payouts direct in their E-gold accounts.

There is really nothing much more to say about this HYIP except it delivers. If you're looking for another investment opportunity, Safe-Holdings is one worth risking your $50. And if you feel like thanking me for introducing you this program, you can always put my E-gold #1917338 as reference when you invest. But hey, it's your choice.
