It’s pretty obvious that it’s a scam, and I’m surprised you don’t see that from the start. Nobody is going to give you a 100% ROI (nor any other guaranteed ROI), and even less in a 24 hour period. Just ignore it.

Edit: Are you talking about your phone SMS inbox, or the forum's Inbox ?

Confirmed scam attempt. First report to admin by report button. They will take appropriate action. Report him/her for spamming on inbox since scam isn't moderated by forum. Perhaps moderators/admin will ban him. And open a thread on scam accusation board with enough proof, so DT members could handle for now. How someone could pay 998% just within 24 hours. Don't believe them and don't fall on this trap.

For the newbies out here (and for some Member ranked users like OP) a pretty good rule of thumb on spotting an "investment opportunity" as a scam HYIP is just by looking if their website has a fixed payment scheme. They often will give you a fixed amount on a given period which on the given volatile market we have is technically impossible, you as a potential investor my wonder how could they keep up a fixed payment scheme when the rest of the market worries about how and where the market will move. Don't let yourself be blinded with the returns you see because your money won't even come back to you fully.

0.07BTC = 0.14BTC after 24hours.
0.15BTC = 0.45BTC after 24hours.
0.25BTC = 1.00BTC after 24hours.

Comprehensively this are bogus figures of profits which cannot be realistic on the basis of Bitcoin price and it nature, so, this is an obvious scam attempt from this bloody SCAMMER with low figurative Intelligentsias in what i called and termed NEWBIES SCAMMERS.

These are cheap scams that nobody will fall for, and i believe that OP is more knowledgeable than me, so, s/he shouldn't fall for this.

A typical "investment" scam, that exists even outside the cryptocurrency ecosystem.

I mean.. Your typical investment scam  promising 20-30% profit daily of your initial deposit is already a very very obvious scam, but then you get this:

You can earn 100% to 998% profit of your initial startup within 24hours.

LOL. The scammer didn't even take a bit of time to at least make his scam a bit believable.

Whenever you see something like that, always ask yourself this.

If there was a deal that good, what incentive does the person have to share it with you? Out of the goodness of his / her heart? The scammer barely knows you, why would he/she do that.

Personally, if ever such a good deal existed, would:

1. Keep quite about it
2. Leverage to the hilt
3. Go all in
4. Cash out
5. Keep quiet about it still. Why bother attracting attention to yourself with your new found wealth?

This same thinking can be applied to many aspects of your life too. Think about stock pickers you see on the MSNBC or even ICO shills on this forum. If they really had a sure-fire hot stock / ICO to recommend, why the heck would they be telling you about it? The more reasonable explanation for sharing it is (a) it's their job, they have to shill something (b) they have something to gain from sharing it eg. they are already in on their position and need other's to get in behind them to give it momentum

Just keep in mind that NO ONE will ever give you any money for free, especially no one who is a complete stranger to you. If someone you meet at the streets in your town and offers you 200 bucks if you lend him 100 ... would you do it?

It's pretty obvious that it's a scam, why will someone you don't know send you a message about a money doubling offer that's too good to be true.

If possible please share the profile of that person so that we know who S/he is. It very likely that that person has sent out several messages to other members too.
Opening a scam accusation thread would also be a very good idea so that they get tagged.

Well, is it not obvious? What confirmations do you need? It's the most primitive ponzi scheme with unbeleavable returns. Usually scammers offering much smaller returns to look more legitimate. Because nobody is going to believe that's possible make 1 BTC in 24 hours just by investing 0.25 BTC. It's f**king 400% ROI!
I see that you're not new member here, I find it a bit strange that you're asking about such obvious scams.
