Yes, practically all HYIP are scams. As others said. HYIP Stands for High Yield Investment Program. I have been in the "scene" of HYIPs for over 2 years now and I have to say that 99.99% of them do end up as scams. They will build up and pay as new members invest money. I can recommend you 1 of them that I have been invested in for quite a while now and is stable. In the trading market, it is difficult but possible to make a good 10-20% profit in a stable manner (you have to be good). Usually programs like those already went private and do not accept anymore investors as they have all the money they need. Any site telling you that you will get x% per month will most likely be a scam as it is illegal to do so for SEC registered companies. I wouldn't even start to do research on any site that offer more than 1% per day as they are scams and/or will not last long. Most companies also are just not registered with the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission). The one I would recomment has been in business for a while now and I wouldn't be surprised if they went private soon. They do not tell you how much percentage you will get as it depends how their traders do. From personal experience, I have seen an average of 0.45% per day which turns to be about 12-13% per month with a bad month at 8% and best at 19%. This company is registered with the SEC.
