I understand that HYIPs are highly unreliable. However, if we check the alexa ranking of a HYIP site, how much ranking would suggest safer site?
LOL, until now I still don't know why he keeps on telling people to check Alexa ranking. Maybe that's all he knows, LOL :P

Anyway, I heard that the source of income for HYIPs is through forex trading. To be successful, of course they should have great traders. But with high ROI and less time to give back the money to members, it will be difficult to 'grow' the invested money, because we don't always get profits in forex. Even if we get profits, it might not be bigger than the ROI promised. So I think one way to at least reduce the chance of being scammed by HYIPs is to find those who have less ROI and more investment time, so at least the HYIP can have longer life span.
