Autosurf...  |
|
 The autosurf industry has been around for a very long time.
It fact, it picked up its pace in popularity in the early years of the during the turn of the millenium!
It peaked in its popularity during the 2005 to 2006 period.
The most popular ones at the time was Stormypay and 12DailyPro.
Everyone was happy making money off these programs. And they lasted a good period. Just over a year before some disgruntled people started to become jealous of their success and started screaming Ponzi.
It all started with Stormypay, where they started freezing user accounts claiming that they have violated the user agreement and the TOS by joining a ponzi scheme program.
The irony is that, the people who opened the pay processor, are the ones who approve the program in the first place. There begins the downfall of the Autosurf industry.
Lawsuits started flying around. And before you know it, all the accounts that were involved in other autosurf programs start to get affected as well.
Members started to cry foul when their accounts are frozen. Funds are continually being accepted, but nothing can be returned to the owners even when they are no longer involved in the programs.
Monies that were credited into the user's accounts were reversed. Accounts started to be frozen for no good reason on account that they are suspected of being involved in ponzi.
The authorities stepped in and an investigation ensued.
Soon, other autosurf programs start to fall, one by one.
Experts started to pop up everywhere saying it is impossible to give the kind of rewards promised to the members of autosurf programs if it is not a ponzi.
No one stood up to examine if it is possible.
Many payment processors are affected due to this investigations as funds are frozen by authorities pending investigations. No money could be added. No money could be taken out either.
One by one, the popular payment processors succumb to the freeze in funds and shut down.
The ever strong going 12DailyPro also got dragged into the mess. This is largely due to payment processors closing down. Then people start to cry foul as money was lost due to the failures of multiple payment processors it supported.
The owner of 12DailyPro was also hauled to court on charges of ponzi and fraud.
Many members lost money because of the law suits!
There after, the autosurf industry is no longer lucrative.
Many autosurf still sprung up. But many of these are mostly ponzi operated by people who either do not know how to reinvest the money, or just jumping on the band wagon to make a quick buck and leave.
Eversince then, there is no one secure program that was ever as successful as 12DailyPro. I have been looking around, but yet to find a program as reliable and as rewarding as 12DailyPro.
Have yo ever been on an autosurf program?
What do you think of this industry?
Is it still viable today?
Who is still on autosurf?

2.  eeyore39 (3181) | 1 year ago |  I am well aware of the industry and took part in several of the programs. Fortunately I was able to get out with money ahead because of the system I used.
I do agree with you however all it takes is one person to spoil it or everyone.
Most people don't even know what a Ponzi scheme is or how it works and have seen many legitimate programs because of their structure called ponzi. Ignorance breads stupidity and more ignorance. People should look over programs very carefully before they invest anything into them. They should be aware of the owners and feel safe with what they are doing. They should also develop a program to eliminate or at least cut down their possible losses. I am not aware of any autosurf programs working today. They were surely masacured a few years ago. Just when we found something that worked and made us money too.

| eeyore39 (3181) | 1 year ago | Not sure about the Guru part but it worked for me. Every time I was paid I would take half off the table before reinvesting the amount. That way I was always adding to the original amount but still taking profits at the same time. It would generally only take a few payouts before you have recouped your original investment and everything from then on is pure gravy. So many just keep putting back in everything they make and when the site goes belly up all of their money is gone not just part of it. | |

| ahgong (3854) | 1 year ago | That was the model I used too.
Put in the first initial investment amount. Roll the full amount till I get my capital back.
Then it is fifty percent of the profits after deducting my initial sum back into the program.
And I was doing really well till I lost my money to some e-gold hacker.
Curse that jerk till the end of my time for stealing my money!!!!
Then comes the payment processor troubles that put the whole autosurf industry in chaos. Sigh...
I received you message. Will be responding to it soon.
Thanks for the recommendations though. | |

| 3. andak2007 (1647) | 1 year ago |  your post is a very well explained topic about autosurf and i have to agree with you about it.
I was supposed to upgrade in 12Dailypro when my stormpay account got frozen and could not be accessed...that was the time when 12dailypro was very popular and i have to say i was kind of hoping to earn money with my small investment.
After that incident i just wanted nothing to do with autosurf anymore...i have to keep away from it as possible...not all autosurf programs were scam...dad n' daves for example..they are very reliable and stable and have so many members...the problem was with the payment processor.
Now is still do autosurf programs but not upgrades..i just use the credits to promote my blog.

| ahgong (3854) | 1 year ago | I am sure you are not the only one.
I too am a victim of StormPay.
Their last minute changes to their policy lose me a good sum of money too!
Money that took me heck of a long time to accumulate.
Well, I am no longer into autosurf much.
I am more into rotators to promote my blogs and sites.
But I am still hopeful that the 12DP days will be back. And this time, all the legalities will be sorted out. | |

4.  smoke_gun (877) | 1 year ago |  i missed the golden age of autosurf but i think it's glad for me because the incident didn't happen on me.any program on internet could be "ponzi" if peoples judge "ponzi" as "the system that paid peoples by matrix,level to level".
i never invite anyone else to join those program need investing money first to get returns,because i knew that i'll be the first being blame if they lost their money.
by now days,peoples are more mature than old times,and they have found autosurf is not a good method or the only method to make some money online,since then,autosurf is an "dying industry".

| ahgong (3854) | 1 year ago | Sounds like you have found a better tool to spin money than autosurf.
Care to share your links or tools?
I would love to be able to explore more possibilities to what I am currently using.
Earning cents from PTC and PTR is really miserable.
And I am constantly looking for ways to expand my knowledge to make a little more. | |
