Hi, Just wondering, has anyone ever invest in these “HYIPs” or used autosurfs? Supposedly people can make a lot of money if they find the programs that are not scams. Does anyone have any experience in these thing? If so, please let me know.

This _could_ be spam, or it could be an honest question. mspara, we do not allow spamming on our board; if that is your intent you will be banned. If you just want to know about these HYIPs, I will send this to IMHO to see if anyone knows anything.
