I am aware that there are many HYIPs out there that are quite legitimate and do pay, but how do I find those different from the scams which outnumber the good ones.
I think all HYIP's are no good. I haven't tried one yet and will never try it. At first, they will pay you and that's only the bait in order for you to invest more. After you pay them a large of money, they will vanish with your money with them.
