MyTurn4Bux.com looked like an interesting and reliable HYIP program to invest in-I was wrong. It is a scam. Internet
Warning! MyTurn4Bux.com is a SCAM! I lost almost $1000 with this program and am out to warn the world of this and other programs like this. Don't be a fool like me.
Here is the advertising copy they run on their front page:
++++++++
We have been running ads for over 3 years and NOT even once have we lost money!
For example if we spend $100.00 on an ad the typical return is 37% profit on the products we sell. Now think about how much we can all make as a team!
Now let's say we have $10,000.00 come in from members to run ads.
It would look something like this in chart below:
$10,000.00 ads running on over 50 websites selling our products.
$10,000.00 makes around 37% profit off each ad.
$10,000.00 will also bring in around 300 new paid members to run more ads.
We pay out 16% to our sponsors. (Biggest on the net for sponsor pay)
Then we take the other 21% and pay the members.
No investing to lose and no guessing, we have been doing this for 3 years.
We run the ads while you do absolutely nothing!
It's a never ending avalanche of cash!
The ads will be everywhere soon so scoop up as many PROFIT CENTERS as you can now and start earning immediately!
Once all the ads spots and PROFIT CENTERS are full we close the system to new members and only the members can then Profit from the ads for the next 2 years.
* New Profit Centers are now open but go fast so limits are in place.
Lock in as many as you can and then get paid out on our work and ads for years to come.
Google / Adsense and multiple other ad sites bring in not only cash for our members but also a never ending group of new members that will keep us alive forever!
MY TURN 4 BUX are masters at running ads for Profit so feel safe in knowing that we are not here to hit and run like an HYIP, we are here to make a living and even if you don't join we will still be here! (Other sites CANNOT say that they are here to make a living because without you to feed off, they die! WE WON'T)
This is NOT an investment site and we are NOT a bank, we are an ad company placing ads worldwide. The product is our ad service and this makes us perfectly legal.
PLEASE IF YOU BUY ANYTHING ONLINE BUY IT HERE SO WE CAN TURN MORE PROFITS FOR MEMBERS!

Here is my experience. I started with this MyTurn4Bux (MT4B) program around the middle of October 2008. I did do some research on the company but apparently not enough. It was brand-new and the concept outlined above look plausible and interesting. I put $985 into an account with them with the Bonus Plan and was looking forward to decent return of 11.06% on daily basis.
But at first, my account never showed my deposit. I e-mailed them back and he asked for a receipt from Solid Trust Pay. I was confused because Solid Trust Pay (STP) didn't send me a receipt. We went back and forth over several hours regarding this issue and finally, I e-mailed STP showing them the problem. They responded that I do not need a receipt just a date and time of my transaction and he should recognize that. I forwarded the e-mail to MT4B and the next time I look at my account I had, to my surprise, $2200 in my account. Honestly, it appeared that he recognized that he made a mistake and was trying to soothe things over. I sent an e-mail expressing my gratitude over these actions.
But I guess it's easy to give away fake money when there isn't any real money ever going to be actually given.
According to this scenario I should've received $242 per day but there is a limit of $200 a day that can be withdrawn. So I applied for a withdrawal on the next day of $200. It was not paid. I applied for another $200 on the next day, and the next and the next and the next and after 10 days my account history was wiped out. No record of my asking for these $200 withdrawals were even recorded.
I sent him several e-mails asking what in heck was going on? He never replied. Finally I threatened to send in a Rip off Report on his company if he did not pay. The next day I had $200 in my STP account. This was the only money I ever received from this program. I put in another request on the following day and it was ignored. Finally I wrote a rather nasty e-mail saying that if I have to fight for every single payout then it's not worth it and I would again fulfill my promise of reporting to agencies like this.
I also explained in a detailed letter that one of the problems here is that there is no communication from him. I expressed concern that I know how it is to start up a new company and if that is the issue I can understand that but, when my requests for withdrawals are not answered and neither are my e-mails, I can only deduce that I have been scammed.
That very night an e-mail was sent out to all members of MT4B explaining what is happening and that things were getting worked out. He said that on the following week (around November 20, 2008) that credit cards would then be available and payments would be swifter. He also made a warning that anyone who would report anything about the company to various forums and reporting agencies would have their accounts suspended. He wrote that there were several people who had spread lies about his company and that we weren't to believe them.
I wrote him back expressing the thanks for sending out an e-mail and said that I would not report his company if this was truly the case. I made additional requests each day for my $200 withdrawal limit and then today, November 17, 2008 upon opening my account found that it was suspended. (A friend of mine in the program also had his account suspended so it is most likely that this site has now ceased to exist). I sent an e-mail asking why this was the case and got no response. I had not sent in any claims to any forums or reporting agencies yet my account was suspended.
On their site it says "Don't post bad vote on Public Forums and at Gold Rating Site without contacting the administrator of our program FIRST. Maybe there was a technical problem with your transaction, so please always CLEAR the thing with the administrator." I'm here to say that I did try to deal with the program administrator and is sent over 21 e-mails for various reasons and only received one answer during that time (except for those mentioned at the very start).
Are you curious as to what the answer was for? It was during the beginning period when I asked him if my calculations were correct if I had invested $10,000 with him. He said they were. Obviously. If he thought he was going to get more money out of me he wanted to make sure he answered quickly. But when asking why he was not fulfilling his payments to me, no response was ever given.
Over the weekend I found a group of people on the TalkGold.com have had similar problems to mine. Their accounts were also suspended with no response to e-mails and no reason given for the suspension.
I can only deduce that this is a scam of the highest proportions. While the payouts seemed plausible because of the claims made on the front page the reality is that they do not pay. While they made an attempt in my case to correct a rather bumpy start, the reality is that I received only $200 over a four-week period from a $1000 investment. I would've lost less if I would've put it in this crazy stock market of this past month!
Fortunately, I did not invite or involve anybody that I know into this obvious scam.
I have also come to realize that there are literally hundreds and possibly thousands of sites similar to this. What's astonishing to me is that they all use the same language in their FAQs and various portions of their website and also the same script (or program). I feel absolutely stupid for believing such promises and am warning the world in every way I can not to be involved in MyTurn4Bux.com.
This site should be shut down immediately. Federal officials of every country should be warned about this company and their practices. These people need to go to jail for what they are doing. Unless they respond to this report and pay me what they owe me, I will continue to tell the world what is going on.
MyTurn4Bux.com is a scam. Avoid it like the plague. The person or group that runs this program knows who I am. They have my name, address, e-mail, phone number, city, state and zip code. I know nothing about them besides the info below. If anything ever happens to me or my family for any reason, I am giving the world fair notice as to where start looking. I have no enemies that I know of in the world except this one.
Here is the WHOIS info available for them:

I did an IP lookup on the company who hosts them and they are out of Montral Canada. I've called them to get information about MT4B and they had me send in an e-mail to abuse@iweb.com. It is possible that this company is running out of Vietnam but I have no hard proof of that. There is a country code listed of number 84 and that is for Vietnam.
There is no question in my mind that MyTurn4Bux is a scam to be avoided at all costs.
