Which HYIP becomes scam faster?

Well, i've been investing in HYIPs long time, and i feel that HYIPs that become scam very quickly have the following characteristics:

1. They have domain names of


  • .info - HYIPs with a .info domain name is something to beware of : planforprofit , pro200 , oemtradershyip , Multiple investment etc. As you can see, they dont have much discussions. i.e. professional investors know they are scams.

  • .biz - One would think these are more reliable than the .com domain name. Well, HYIP admins know you think that way, and hence, even though these have expensive names, they're 100% scams. .biz domain names are few, but they're ALL scams. Check these out: 12dailytrade , Fast-Funds , 3d-trade , SpaceHYIP, Safe Gold , Online2Cash etc.

2. They have numbers in their site name. Look at these: 20dayfund , UpTo600 , 10dayshyip , Only400 , E3Gold etc. This is an unprofessional way of naming a site. Yep. They're scams.


3. Stupid names . Yea, you know they sound stupid, so stupid that it cant be true. So why invest? Here're are a few hyips that have really silly and unpro names : fastcoin , Coolbenefit , Fastmilliondollar , waymajesty etc. If they say, "cool" "fast" "quick" oranything that sounds too fishy, bail out as soon as you can.


4. Using names of other successful Companies. Just because they say "LibertyReserve" or "Paypal" or "e-gold" or even "Microsoft" "yahoo" etc. , know that these companies DON'T run HYIPs. HYIPs after often short-term, and no one is going to sue them for using their trademark or registered names. Why? Its not worth the effort. You'll never catch these HYIP scammers. Check these out: egold-pclub , Liberty Hyip, Euro Investment Ltd , C-GOLD FX ADVERTISING etc. Don't be surprised if there's a HYIP called Red Cross. (There is. Read about them here: Red Cross) Just don't invest in them.


5. Search for typographical errors - you find them? Leave them. :)


6. Check out their support - send a e-mail via "contact us" and check for response from the Admin.


7. Report new HYIP scams - You can make a post in the respective HYIP thread in forums with a message. You'll save others from professional scammers. You can search for the HYIP using the search feature : Search Forums. Search by Key Word : Set Key Word(s): hyipname.com and set prefernce to "Search Titles Only" for faster search. Futhermore you can specify the forums as HYIPs. Or you can ame a new thread abou it here: HYIP potential scams and warnings or send a PM to a Forum Moderator with the report.
