TIPs 2 Get Better Results From HYIP Investments

These tips are designed to help both newbie and experienced investors in the HYIP arena. These do not represent the complete list. This is what I practice when deciding whether to invest in a new program – either just launched or newly introduced to me. These tips are not my own creation but the result of research that I have conducted to help me increase the potential for making profit and/or reduce the risk of losing money.

Tip 1.
Do a Search on Google – Study the website carefully to understand as best as possible how the program is meant to function. Do not pay too much attention at this stage to:
a. How the money is earned;
b. Where the company is located; or
c. How long they have been in business.

Choose and copy one or two sentences from both:
a. Home page; and
b. Paragraph explaining how they earn their returns.

Paste the sentences from the home page into the google search bar with quotation marks both at the beginning and the end of the sentence. Do the same for the sentences chosen under (b) above. The search results, majority of the time, will show that these sentences match exactly those found on a professional trader’s website.

Additionally, do the same for the Admin of the program. This is a little bit more complicated. You need to get the name of the file that the image of the Admin is uploaded at; you can do so by clicking on the properties of the file. Then copy and paste it into a google image search. Here again, the majority of the time the search results will show that the image is an exact copy from another site.

Conclusion: Do not touch it - the Admin is lying. Your conclusion here has to be conclusive; there are no ‘ifs’ or ‘buts’. Trust your own decision; do not be influenced by what you are told, irrespective of the source.

Tip 2.
If the result of the Tip one is inconclusive e-mail the Admin and ask the following three questions:
a. How is the money earned?
b. Where is the company located?
c. How long have you been in business?
d. How long have you been paying?

The most common answers that I’ve received were (a) the USA; (b) two years; (c) Forex trading; and (d) been paying members offline for over a year.

Conclusion: Do not touch it - the Admin is lying.

These are the two most important aspects of any DD about a company. There are more tips but, relative to the two above, they are not as important.

Wishing you great success.

Thanks! This is a nice addition to my DD strategy!

Thanks nobleman

I like this so I've made it a sticky

Coolwhois can be a great addition also. You can load it into your browser tool bar, then when your visiting the website your looking into just click on Coolwhois and you have all the site registration info.

If in fact they didn't go through annonymous registration they will have a phone #, give it a call and I bet it doesn't go through, it's disconnected or it's a fax machine.

Another clue to a scam.You can also check the registration date of the site. You'd be surprised how many of these scams say they have been paying for months and they just registered the site a few weeks ago, LOL!

Hope this helps save a few newbies

Nice one feelgood2, great post.

Got any hot tips on new ones worth a punt on? ;0)

this might make sense if you're talking about an avatar image. otherwise, i'm not sure what exactly to look for. in any given site, where does one find an image of the admin!?

I would base my DD on different research, but this could help some investors ...

Nobleman,

I would really like to know what program or programs you are investing in right now. I am looking for an honest, credible program. My email is [email protected]

Realize that most HYIP's are not real programs and that they rob Peter to pay Paul. Just hope your Paul!!
Realizing that they are is the most important lesson. You can still make some money in this arena. Just follow some simple rules.

1. Invest only what you can afford to lose. (It is similar to Gambling.)
2. Spread your investments into 7 or 10 programs. (create a portfolio)
3. Take out your investment "risk" ASAP! I like to invest in programs where I can remove my Risk within 30 days.
4. Take profits often. You never know when that program that you thought was a sure thing will disappear.

That being said, their are programs that appear to be true investments, IE. Feeder Fund.

But these programs ROI is not much better than investing in a Higher Risk Mutual Fund.

Some people, and I know a few. Started HYIP's on the basis of investing in Forex. I myself have done some Forex Investing. I had several programs to track signals, trying to find good Enter and Exit points to buy/sell between currencies. Setting stops to ensure if the currencies go the wrong direction I wouldn't lose too much money. Some days I could make anywhere from 10 to 240 PIPS on my best day, but over the long run, I would pretty much break even.
These guys felt they could make a go of it, it worked for a while and they were able to pay everyones interest and make money themselves. But they hit a bad streak of luck for about a week. They had enough in reserve to pay for two or three bad days, but a week was too much and they lost it all. They felt the pressure of trying to pay their investors and took risks they shouldn't have taken. When the program ended, there actually wasn't any money left period. They didn't run with peoples money. There just wasn't any money left.

The moral to this story is, yes there are many scams, then there are programs like the one I discribed, where people actually thought they could grow an investment business, but in the long run, they really didn't know how to run the buisness. This is the risk you run, investing in HYIP programs. Even honest ones can fail if the traders make mistakes.

When you invested, you agreed to the rules, these rules basically say, if we lose all your money, you have no recourse against us. You agreed to these rules when you invested!

Sorry for the book...
