I doubt there are many of us who haven`t at some time made a loss in the HYIP/Autosurf arena.
What was your biggest loss, and who to?

I`ll start off. Probably I`d have to say CPUI, but I can think of one or two others in the `rogues gallery` which may also qualify.
The amount lost? From memory around $250. I have never been one of those to sink thousands into any program - I`m not that trusting.
Anyone else going to admit to a loss?

OUCH!
That was one of those more recent programs wasn`t it, clifton? I must say I was very surprised when they went belly up.

Yeah, though I had written the funds off anyway. The loss which hit me most emotionally was just $50 bucks in Golden Nestegg. I should have been pretty naive at that time, because I calculated how these $50 will make me rich in few years (and really believed that). So that loss crashed a nice illusion

Well, lets see. PIPS, Foreign Fund and Wellspring Capital although I did get about 80% back from Wellspring thru the SEC intervention.

Oh, you were also with Foreign Fund eh Hardlyworkin? I did lose a bit in that, but fortunately managed to get most of it out. Remember them setting up a new website (I think with a new name), but no one ever got anything out? Nowadays the scammers don`t go to those lengths of pretend honesty, they just cut and run.

Actually I was just doing a search for something and I came across a thread on CaribeFX. Anyone remember them? I lost with them, around $100 from memory.

In this regards i think i m luck i have been scammed once and that too for $50 .... i stick to Hyips that are in the lower range so that even if its a scam it wont burn a hole in my wallet.

If I lose, it's $10 here, $20 there - but it adds up. On the other hand when I get into profit, I can usually recover losses from the little spends. I'd have to say that I lost the most from the "Tatijano" programs. Anyone fess up to being in the crowd scammed by this guy?
