Thread: Pips-(BM)-Trial Starts 13th of september.

Know it well - and I agree, it's a beautiful city and I was there when it was behind the Iron Curtain.
I must say that until I was asked to write a book on Pips, I never realised the extent of the fraudulent investment schemes being promoted on the internet. Pips was of interest simply because of the incredible ramifications of property, restaurants etc., something that most fraudster try to avoid since it inhibits the exit strategy. In the case of Pips, I don't think there was an exit strategy - just a hope that everyone would go away quietly and forget their investment. Picpay effectively put a stop to that.

@Owen

Don't know the Restaurant Schiff myself but I'm sure the Franziskaner will still be around when we both are long since history.
I'm a little familiar with currencies myself, only the majors though (EUR, USD, JPY, GBP and of course the CHF) trading them for a small swiss bank, but I think you hit the nail on the hat by your prospect of a devaluation of the IQD. Much more likely than a sudden appreciaton anyway.
Regarding the promoted schemes here, I think it's at least fair to say that any sort of Investment club that promises a certain pct of daily profit is indeed a scam. But would love to elaborate that with you in Zurich, feel free to give me a pm.
Regards
Max

I just got back from there and many of the prices remind me of Europe from the late 1970s. A half pint of bier cost me less than 7 Swedish Kronar , which is unheard of anywhere else. The Bier was Wonderful as well. They have modern stores like other places and the same brands as anywhere else, so why the big time costs everywhere else. It would seem the same raw materials would be bought at the same prices for manufacture of things.

The Euro never did benefit the average person in Europe. Just Big Banking , Business and Government Interests. Met a girl here in Sweden from Greece and she said that life was easier before the Euro and that now the Greeks need two jobs to get by. Same for many in Italy and Spain.

I guess the scams have a farther reach than just these Hyips we see advertised everywhere. Look for things to get worse before it gets better. But I would definitely consider a trip to Prague. Beautiful city if you stay in the older parts.

Cheers , Blue

Equally applied and harvesting lots of sad faces within the middle and lower income bracket group in my country too!!!

But quaint places like you have been and Owen's seconding is certainly a way to get by and forgetting there is a Euro currency in place...

I luv the other spots too in Vienna and Kopenhagen as well but Milano is simply a gorgeous place to walk-shop till one drops....

YB. - Cheers to all on staying abreast abt the trial so others can see, read some sanity emerging as the months envelope.

One month to go before the next "mention".It is going to be a long wait.There are some cheerleaders claiming that there is going to be a big suprise! Bryan will be out, sooner than we think !!!

Watch this space

and out of which cell is that? heard there's a new prison building under completion for new faces too.

Well...Here it is Wednesday, October 25th and there is still no word?? I think that our "investment" is gone along with BM!!

Like blaming the authorities for the fiasco that Bryan was responsible to create is the biggest joke I have ever read!...

Your list of lies should be enough to realize that PIPS was based on false promises that made too many members lose their hard earned money!

A straightforward question to you: If in 2003 PureInvestor had been frozen by the Malayasian authorities as it was in 2005, or if at the very least the authorities had at that time announced that due to inquiries being received that a preliminary investigation of PureInvestor’s business affairs was being conducted, would the tens of thousands of people who bought into PureInvestor/PIPS have done so before the Malaysian authorities had revealed their findings? Yes or No?

Owen,

What is your take on Solid Investment? Have you done any research on this program?

Sosa, real or fake? Colins, real or fake?

Were they truely just a couple of Russians working yet another (some would say) brilliant scheme??

Just interested in your views.

Thanks

(Yes, I know this is not the right thread for this question! I'm asking it anyway! YB can move it if he so chooses!!)
