Title: Hyip website offering unusual returns
Post by: Hamada1983 on February 21, 2024, 04:28:41 PM
I found a Hyip website https://www.standard-wealthinvestment.com/ where they claim investors can earn up to 80 percent daily and there are three  investment packages which is 20%, 40% and 80% returns which seems too good to be true. When you scroll down there is registration certificate which is fake.

The pop up notification that someone withdrew or deposit money is fake.

Upon checking the address in the UK, it is located in rural area but the address is fake and 58 Marlborough does not exist. Also the FCA issued a warning for the company stockfinance because it was providing investment services without their authorization with same address that made me believe wealth investment and stockfinance are same scam company. However the domain for stockfinance is no longer active.

The website is founded by four teams with images that have fake names and are stolen images from other site and they have nothing to do with wealth investment. There is one of the image that has a fake name of  Hugh Gallagher and upon using Google reverse image his real name is Shou Chow the founder of TikTok.

Beware of this scam.

I can't access the site right now when it comes to HYIP everything here is all fakes, the team the location, the payments, and the testimonials their plans are unrealistic they are targeted newbies who believe that there are companies that they can invest in and double their money in a few days, one of the reasons why these HYIPs don't die easily is because they are paying HYIP Monitors to show that they are paying companies, this is to lure people that they are legit.

This is one example of HYIP Monitors

Yep, textbook scam investment. Nice work, OP.

I don't think it's even HYIP, they'll simply stole the fund instead of slowly rug pulling by building a reputation, paying the investors with newest investor's money.

As pointed out, the team is fake.

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/02/21/Yvkjj.jpeg

Hector Elis is Qualcomm's CEO (https://www.qualcomm.com/company/about/leadership/cristiano-amon), Cristiano Amon.

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/02/21/YvfnD.jpeg

Hugh Gallagher is, as pointed in the opening post, TikTok's CEO, Shou Zi Chew,

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/02/21/YvvOG.jpeg

And the other two were... not sure if they're famous, but they're taken from these pages below:

https://www.eduyush.com/blogs/full-form/ceo-full-form
https://x.com/cashch/status/1746594021143876033?s=20

And I don't even bother to run their company number on UK's database because this license seems... off.

Oh, by the way, I archived (https://archive.fo/QzVgK) their page.

Typically, someone has to be familiarized with these schemes that whenever a company offers investments and they're promising high gains and returns. Those are the signs that they're a scam and you should be aware that they don't have good intention but just to scam their investors. Nothing on Earth can give you high gains for a short period of time. Even holding Bitcoin requires patience and what these scam schemes are targeting are those that don't have an idea about their existence. No need to go through with details even by just simply looking at the percentage rate of returns, that's already enough to say that they're a scam.

I stopped reading the details of the project once I reach this description.
Any project that offers a return on investment higher than 5% per month without proof and precise details on how to achieve profits is a fraud, let alone 20%, 40% and 80%, and therefore understanding the certificates and guarantees that it may provide is a fraud.

You can report them as many providers' policies prohibit Hyip projects.

Like the way these guys pose themselves, 5% return in one month equates to 60% in one year my bad its 20% a day, heck these guys creating money out of thin air? Why they have not destabilized the economy yet? Just asking yourself these questions yields the answer that it is too good to be true, but if you are swayed by their words and think you are going to make money, you are only making a fool of yourself.

Dont even try to experiment with 10 to 20$ - its not worth it, rather buy a lunch bento with that instead.

Anyone reading this, the above site is a scam and if you think we are fooling you, ask yourself the above question and try to find the answer.

Except that they don't offer a 5% monthly. It is far more "enticing" than that, at 20% daily. And no, OP is not swayed by their words, he created this thread for the exact opposite of that, he warned against a scam.

The four domains I will mention also fall under Hyip and use the same template as the scam website OP mentioned; the scammer behind them all may be the same owner.

  • rise-empire[.]com
  • alpha-tradex[.]com
  • aetexu[.]org
  • reliable-returns[.]com

Whoever does a little research, as @Holydarkness did, will confirm that these HYIP sites that you may encounter online contain nothing but falsehoods. There is nothing real, even 0.1%. It is worth noting that they try to use fake certificates and images of famous people to appear legitimate.

Thank you, OP

These same hyip websites are being created by scammers since long time and some investors deposit on such sites and lose their money in the greed of getting quick profit. After visiting this website I saw big big amount of money deposit notifications to make the site look trustworthy, and if one believes this, he will definitely lose money if he deposits on this site.

Just looking at the investment plan of these hyip sites shows that it is a sure scam and a trap with tempting offers. No real project can give such a high profit return so quickly, but inexperienced investors have little knowledge about these scams, so they easily become the target of these scammers. OP thanks for the information about this website, which will help the crypto community stay safe from these websites.

Everytime people see such scam offers, people will always question why scammers still make an obvious scam attempts when what they offer is obvious scam and many are aware of it?
It's because there are still people who are into it and ready to risk their money for greed because HYIP are good only in the "first place" so as long they are the first one who enter they are in good place, you will see a new user will pop up in other/different platform promoting that kind of site.
I wonder where OP found this site though.

That's the sad truth because of people's greed, they never stop getting into this. They're all familiar with it but decline to stop because they know that they have to be the first so that they're also the first one to get out of it. But honestly, they should just stop so that these scammers will lose their patience and eagerness to repeat these actions. If there are victims that are ready to get victimized, they'll be seen by these scammers and that will urge them that there are a lot of people ready to be targeted again no matter what type of scam scheme they portray the next time around that they're there. It's just so sad that they'll never stop and not just those type of people but also the actual ignorant ones too.

Bitcoin is irreversible, and many beginners believe that they can try a service, and even if it is a scam, they will be able to recover their investments.
Greed is what makes a person believe that these projects will be real, even by 1%, because you need a very greedy person to believe their scam.

Except a newbie and a greedy person will see something like this and still fall into the trap, there are some offers in which the moment we are sighting them, we could have sense the danger in them, if it looks too real to be true, then its not something we should go for, as no any business will be willing in giving a daily interest on investment at such rate when they are not scam, how can they meet up.

  • alpha-tradex[.]com
  • aetexu[.]org
  • reliable-returns[.]com

There are hundreds of them, at this point where they can create hundreds by simply copy pasting a script it's just futile to to try and mention them all or open a topic about them:

bitstars-miners(dot)com/?a=home#investment
rise-empire(dot)com/?a=home#investment
altcoins-digitals(dot)com/?a=home#investment
coinprofit-finance(dot)com/?a=faq#investment
goldentradersms(dot)com/?a=home#investment
crypto-escalator(dot)com/?a=home#investment
cryptocapital-elite(dot)com/?a=plan
multi-coinexchange(dot)ltd/?a=home#investment
gainbundle(dot)ltd/?a=home#investment
giftextradefx(dot)net/?a=home#investment
bitbridges(dot)com/?a=home#investment
microstrategies(dot)org/index.html#investment
calmmindinvest(dot)com/?a=home


and I got bored of even counting not copy pasting their domains, there were at least 40 more in just google search.
I really hoped for a while it will stop being such lucrative business and at one point they will simply cease this but there is nothing stopping them.

Dont even try to experiment with 10 to 20$ - its not worth it, rather buy a lunch bento with that instead.

Unfortunately that's what a lot do, and $10 from there $20 from there they are already making a profit over the domain name and they will keep doing it.

There are also cases when people invest their capital in such pyramids consciously, realizing that this is a ponzi scheme. But they consider themselves smarter than others, naively hoping that they will have time to take their money with a profit before the pyramid collapses. And some of them really succeed, but most of them still lose their money.

And some of them really succeed, but most of them still lose their money.
From the start, we know that ponzi schemes are fraudulent investment scams where returns to existing investors are paid using funds contributed by new investors, rather than from profit earned.  The scheme leads investors to believe that profits are coming from legitimate business activities when, in fact, they are coming from the contributions of new investors, so why do we join in the first place?

Yes, I tend to agree!
Early adopters might initially receive returns and feel like they are benefiting from it.  But how did we know if we join ponzi scheme will last long upon we join?  It's not ideal to join HYIP websites.

Their business model is based on creating thousands of accounts at a low cost and promoting them in the hope that someone will deposit 10 to 20 dollars to try the service. Such scammers will continue to create more of these services if they are able to collect 100 dollars per month (fooling 5 users).
If they find a suitable person, they may risk doubling his profits quickly so he can deposit more, and so on until they steal him.
