Liberty reserve offers 200$ return of investment in 5 days

May 14, 2012 4:17am CST
Got an email from liberty and I don't know if this is true. The email address seem legit since it is from no_reply@libertyreserve.com. They said that if we deposit $100 before May 18 the return of it will be $200. The maximum deposit is $10000 per member. so if we invest $100 the amount we will get after 5 days is $200. It sounds so unreal. What do you think guys? Have you received the same message from liberty reserve?

It is from an HYIP program that uses LR as a payment processor. HYIP programs can make money so long as you get in early and then get out. All later deposits just go to paying out the early depositors till the site crashes from lack of money. By the time you get this email it is already too late for you to invest. Also, the email address may be written on the screen as being from LR but if you hover your mouse over it then it may show a different address.

Yes, lots of HYIP sites say they make huge profits from investing our money in Forex when in fact it is just a ponzi setup. I make money from HYIP and Forex but you have to be really on the ball to do it and have the time to be online to react immediately.

I am interested in Forex trading or buying stocks so I can watch my money grows but I think it needs a lot of expertise to do that thing. It involves money so I need to practice more before getting into the real action of investing. Thanks!

When you get emails like this which are too good to be true and look as if they come from a reputable source, DON'T trust what it says in the From: field - it can easily be spoofed. 1) If you have an account with a payment processor, they will know your name and all reputable communications from them should address you by name. If it says 'Dear Member' or 'Dear Account Holder' or something like that, ALWAYS suspect that it's false! 2) Check where it REALLY comes from by looking at the full message header. Different email clients have different names for this and different ways of doing it. Look for information on this in their Help system and learn how to read a header. 3) If the email contains a link 'to your account' or something similar, just point your mouse at the link and read where is would REALLY take you to on the status line at the bottom. It will almost certainly NOT be to the page which you would normally use to log in!

yes, we can read from every email of liberty reserve that they always address their ember with their names and will never send a link or ask for our passwords. The message I received address me as a "member" only not my name. Thanks!

I'm a member at liberty reserve as well but I've not received that email. I receive similar emails that are supposed to come from PayPal but those are fake for sure and I always forward them to the PayPal pishing whatever email... just on case :)

Sure... and also LR is a payment processor and not an investment site. Unfortunately there are always people who believe that emails and so those people make their day....

I always get emails from reputable sites but of course I always have a doubt when it looks so unbelievable. Thanks.

Don't trust on this mails. Make sure you visit the Liberty Reserve site and confirm that it is real or not.

it is better not to trust this kind of email message than to realize that your account was hacked.

Well, let say they did invest and they can get that amount with your cash after 5 days, do you think they are kind enough to give you double the amount of your investment? Well, just think that there's nothing that is too good to be true in this world, they are running a business and all they would think of is to maximize their profit. But if you think it really exist, then just call them or send a support ticket to verify it, but never just believe in email like that.

right now I still do not have the reply of liberty reserve about this. if it is really from them it is still unreasonable to think that a company will double our investment for a short period of time.

Do not believe in all these hype , it is too good to be true. You might want to think through how they are going to earn from this program.

It is really a fake email and don't believe with this kind of email because you might be a victim if you will give your trust to this mail. Obviously, the world double your investment is really untrue. Libertyreserve is a payment processor and it is not an HYIP or a money cycler that could give you high returns.

They are awesome hackers! Imagine, they were able to penetrate through the security system of Liberty Reserve which implements a double login security feature. Makes me remember of how Mark Zuckerberg hacked into the data network of Harvard back when he was still developing Facemash.

liberty reserve has never ask people to invest on it. by the way it didn't mention to you what type of the investment. so better be caution and don't trust on this kind of message.

as said by them, they established relationship with forex trading accounts from costa rica. The reason why they are making the offer of investment.

I received an email too that said i've won $100 but i need to pay $0.50 so that they can be sure my account is still active.. but i've never really joined it that's why i just deleted it's message...

Just remember the old age adage if it sounds too good to be true it most probably is. Sounds like this is a huge scam or ponzi scheme that is going to leave a lot of people out of pocket.

There are a lot softwares to send spam emails. here are some tips to realize them. 1. Check whether it reached spam/ junk folder of mail box 2. Check the reply address * sender address may be changed using bot software. So they can use any email id as sender address. no matter whether it is valid or not. 3. Check the "reply to" address. As the mail is from liberty reserve domain's email, we are confused :). I think it is better to contact liberty reserve's support team ;)
