Gulf Reserve Invest In Oil H.Y.I.P or H.Y.P.E?
Gulf Reserve quickly gained popularity in the realm of High Yield Investment Programs. An arena which I swore off years ago but the lure of hourly deposits and daily cashflow with instant withdraws enticed me enough to look further. At first glance this looks like the typical hyip ponzi scheme. Like most programs they present a semi believable story about where they come from, how they really don’t need new investors money etc.
Upon further investigation there are a few things that stand out that give potential prospects searching for what to invest in 2011 a reason to look further. First and foremost is their technology and security. Unlike the fly by night hyip scammers these guys actually invested a few bucks in a custom script with 256 bit ssl encryption and a few other expenditures. The site shows seals of protection from comodo and mcafee to give potential investors a bit more warm and fuzzy.
The most important thing I noticed was that they accept credit cards through alert pay which gives them much more credibility since they had to go through some checks and balances to get approved. This by no means makes the program any more or less a ponzi but it simply means someone behind the scenes has put themselves on the chopping block and taken responsibility for the program and acceptance of credit cards.
If you read the terms and conditions they spell out the fact that all investments are high return and high risk along with the other disclaimers. This may give them a little wiggle room if they have a problem making payments down the road. So before I give you an overview of the actual program let me give my my personal opinion. I don’t feel they have a persons money long enough to be able to generate any real sustainable profits BUT it is possible if they are trading Binary Options or day trading commodities and they are very organized and meticulous.
My first rule of investing, especially in anything that offers above average returns through a website investment would be preservation of capital. To apply this to the Gulf Reserve program I would consider one of two options A) Their 5% in 5 day plan which will pay you your principal and 5% additional in 5 working days. If you can hold your breath for each 5 day period this may be worth a shot. B) The 30 day option with 120% return. The reason this is a bit appealing is because funds are deposited into your account hourly until you reach the daily percentage offered and you can withdraw your money instantly. As the days go by your risk lessens.
Here is some more info about how the program works.
Gulf Reserve is an Alert Pay Verified Program that boasts an ROI of up to 5.5% per day. The program launched sometime in March 2011 and lasted until July 2011. If you choose to invest in any of these type programs start small, get your profit back as quickly as possible and then use profits to minimize your risk. As for the question, is it an H.Y.I.P or just full of HYPE looks like it was hype since the program folded in July 2011.
Remember, High Reward ALWAYS comes with HIGHER Risk than traditional ventures.
