Nortel Investment, BT183.... SCAM Thieves

Nortel Investment - which claims to give 2500% ROI on variable investments with time frames ranging from 5 - days to 24 hours is the latest in HYIP SCAM ACTIVITY. There are several other sites that look like Nortel Investment. They offer either "Google Groups" or "Yahoo Groups" which are set up to give these HYIP's credibility in that it looks like they are paying every day - with some saying that they just invested $50,000 or - they just made $500,000 !! This leads people to believe in the validity of these HYIP's... and since we all would like to make some quick cash now and again... why not test this group out!

I sent a couple test posts inquiring about their referral program, etc.... and none of my concerns or test posts were posted... just the same 5 or 6 people claiming to have been paid -

I tested this group with a simple $400 investment into the E-Bullion account of ELIJAH MUTIE as their E-Bullion account number was sent to my email per my request. My investment was to return 2500% in 5 days. I thought it was kind of a joke... $10,000 from a $400 investment - but I jumped in anyway to check it out - as often, with HYIP's it is a matter of timing. They ALL crash at some point - because they are all PONZI schemes to some degree. So, you get in, make some money - and get the cash out before these guys disappear.

These guys couldn't even pay on a small test investment like: $400! So you can't tell me somebody made $500,000 with them - as their bogus google groups page claims. I knew my investment was "play" money, but it still ticks me off!

So, consider this group "tested" and don't waste your time here. It won't be long until this Nortel Investment site is black listed like their previous... they didn't even bother to change the design or look of their web site!

Here's the lowdown... http://NortelInvestment.com

Had previously been black-listed on several SCAM WATCH sites, under their slightly different URL ~ http://nortel-investment.org which offered a slightly different plan. I guess they paid some, but mostly, did not pay. All you have to do is pop "Nortel Investment Scam" into your search engine and - go!

I just went to post the WhoIs information - and kind of a coincidence... it is not available any longer. I sent it every where I could think of yesterday - so maybe they pulled it off-line. In case it works, this is the URL:

http://www.whois.net/whois_new.cgi?d=nortelinvestment&tld=com

This is guy listed on the Who Is report - this site was purchase just one month ago, November 2007. I tried to contact him by email, but of course, no response.

My initial inquiry to this group was for their E-Bullion account number - which they immediately sent me. I haven't heard from them since. I reported them to E-Bullion yesterday - as running a SCAM HYIP.

I also reported them to Liberty Reserve as an HYIP SCAM. Ultimately, I don't know what good all this will do, but if it saves someone's "Uncle Joe or Aunt Mary" from wasting their money here... then I'm happy.

Here are some other similar sites that look like SCAM. They "look similar" and have the same schtick - with the google or yahoo "group" that lends perceived credibility - and the web sites were obviously created by the same person or same program...

http://star-pays.biz/

This is the same group as NORTEL INVESTMENT. I compared IP addresses to emails sent from both groups.... same IP address.

http://SureProfits.com

http://eurosunion.com/

http://BT183.com

This group also posts daily that they are paying, however, a direct deposit into their "BT 183" Liberty Reserve account on December 21, 2007 went UN-PAID and remains unpaid even though numerous requests were sent to the admin.

This group also has a "Yahoo-Group" - with certain people claiming to be paid, however, numerous emails to these investors yield no responses. NORMALLY, HYIP investors like to communicate with one another - with advice and warnings... Again, I can only surmise that these "groups" are FAKE.

http://www.croftbros.biz/index.html

Croft Bros - or Citrus Finance, have already been black listed in a few places. They actually took their forum off-line - here's what they say:

MONITORING & FORUM PAGE

Attention: We have closed yahoo group today, because of certain reasons, we does not allow members discuss concerns our project, we are going private, our MIN spend is 2,000 Dollar, if you are serious investor, want invest more than $100,000 please contact us first support@croftbros.biz we don' T use the yahoo email citrusfinance@yahoo.com if you have any question please email to support@croftbros.biz


SO, don't fall for the NORTEL INVESTMENT SCAM HYIP or any of these others... THEY TAKE YOUR MONEY AND FAKE YOU OUT WITH THEIR PHONY GOOGLE GROUPS PAGE.

Simply sharing my experience. Wish it was different!

So what did they do, just take your money and never pay you? I am new to this whole HYIP thing. I trade for a living, and earning 1-2% a day is not that hard if you know what you are doing. 90% of Traders don't, they fail. I can tell you it is impossible to return that type of money 2500% in 5 days is impossible. Thanks for doing us a good service by testing this thing out. There is one HYIP I have run accross, and invested in and they are paying. They run there fund much like a hedge fund. I truly believe they are the real deal and are day trading the markets. Of course, they could fail too.

Yes, they took my money - $400 into Nortel's E-Bullion - and $250 into BT 183 's Liberty Reserve account. NO RESPONSE TO EMAILS, NO PAYMENT - NOTHING... Plus, the Yahoo/Google groups seem fake... HYIP'ers usually communicate with one another as you are doing, however, I sent emails to several of the investors posting returns and absolutely none of them responded.

Also note - ADDED TO 1/7/08 post - RELCO INVEST - SAME GROUP AS STAR PAYS...WHICH IS SAME GROUP AS NORTEL...
