First, lets start off with a bit of news with the industry. Not a whole lot has been going on with many of the programs listed on the Monitoring Page. We’ve seen some tid-bits of information come through, but with the new year and Martin Luther King Jr. day, things overall have been slow. I’ve been keeping an eye on the programs listed closely, especially as we emerge from a slow period on the industry.

A reader posted the following comment the other week I’ve been figuring out the best way to answer. A reader, Fabio Lazzaroni wrote:

Hello,

I would like to see more transparency and up to date reviews and comments about HYIP programmes, your details and history on HYIPs are very good but most are old, this review on Yes-Investment is very old this was made on the 1st October 2010 what’s happened between then and now?
90% of HYIPs are scams if we don’t have good super monitoring the investors won’t stand a chance to win but .

Regards and let’s win.

First, since the question was about Yes Investment, let’s talk about them first. I want to warn everyone that Yes Investment has been confirmed to be paying selectively. Investors of the daily plan may still be receiving payments, however investors who are  invested in other special plans have not been receiving payments. Please do not invest in Yes Investment.

Here on HYIPBlogger.com, after a program that is a featured listing hits break-even point I write a thorough second review of the program. I wait a bit, watching to see if they program turns scam before I begin my second review, sometimes for a couple of weeks. I wait because it’s my experience that the time shortly after a cycle is one of the times a program is most likely to turn scam. Overall, it’s my goal to only provide you readers with useful information, so if there’s really nothing to report, I’m not going to push you useless information.

Despite their making selective payments, we’re going to look at Yes Investment a bit. You’ll see below their Alexa graph shows very small or zero-growth for the past few months, something that is not a positive sign for a HYIP.

There was growth from September until the start of December. December is typically a poor month of growth for HYIPs, and the market slowed down for most programs, so this wasn’t an overly large warning sign for the program. Unfortunately, the program started launching a number of promotional programs, something I consider a huge warning sign with any high-yield investment program.

Now, we’re going to compare Yes Investment to EZ-Profit, another program turned scam that continues to selectively pay its daily plan investors. The similarities as you soon will see are astonishing, and it’s my belief that both programs were run by the same administration. The similarities exceed past their similar Alexa graphs to similar site layouts and scripts. As the program is considered problem, I can speculate more freely, and I hope you all see these similarities so you can check them against other currently paying programs.

Here’s the Alexa graph for EZ-Profit so you can compare yourselves:

Now, as you can see, the trend of EZ-Profit is very similar to Yes Investment. Both programs have significant growth in the middle of September, followed by a period of small to zero-growth before gradually declining.

A zero-growth trend is a red flag showing that a HYIP may be in trouble. Also the start of new plans without any warning shows signs of cash flow problems and can quite easily forecast the end of a program.

Unfortunately, I’m not able to write about every signal I see for every program I monitor. So much happens with each program and it’s difficult to tell if small activity changes are warning signs, or just normal procedure.

For example, the holidays, including Martin Luther King Jr. day, have thrown things off a bit. It’s difficult at times to know if a program isn’t paying or if they’re recognizing a holiday. So, I do the best I can to keep everything up-to-date for you all.

As far as transparency is concerned, I’m going to to my best to keep up with everything and continue giving you all the information you want. Expect updated reviews shortly for the programs I have hit break-even-point with on the Monitoring Page. It’s my plan to talk a bit about 144 Cash Ads later this week.

It’s important to note to everyone, and it’s my opinion, the programs that release the least information and pay strong while occasionally writing updates are among the strongest programs in the industry. Often the programs that write a ton of news and push marketing strategies often aren’t as popular with investors and end up prematurely ending. This isn’t always the case, but often the programs that offer simple, quality news as important things happen (and only when important things or updates have happened), are stronger and thus last for extended periods of time.

I can only recommend that you all observe and research programs, so that you personally know all the risks involved and have greater knowledge of HYIPs altogether. This industry definitely is full of surprises, so the best we can do is research and watch the trends. All HYIPs are extremely risky by nature and all Investments need carful consideration beforehand. I urge you all to strongly consider why you’re investing and weigh the risk of loss heavily.

I hope you all realize, most (if not all) of my analysis of high-yield investment programs can be found on the Walkthrough Page. With that being said I’m going to leave you to your own research now. Look forward to a review up tomorrow, and until then, keep walking through the world of HYIP investing!
