We possess first-hand direct contacts with numerous financial institutions and private lenders throughout North America and Europe.

2. Our offer.

Our group has been in this business since 1998 offering investment opportunities to private individuals. Our customers' funds are involved in the following financial activities: bank debentures, hedge funds and private placements.5 In order to make our a**ets more diversified and for the company to be more versatile we also deal in the real estate (the US, Europe and certain Asian countries), precious metals and more.

The funds you entrust us with become the part of our investment capital which is managed by skilled professionals and guarantees stable income for at least another 10 years.

4. Our history.

1998 - SOLIDINVESTMENT was founded by a group of traders, bankers and financial experts with a start-up capital of $9.8M. It was intended for individual and corporate investors aimed at getting high income.

1999 - We have strengthened our positions on the market. This year we have made it more attractive for our investors to lend money than to save up.

2000 - Our fund went online. Our private customers now have online accounts. We are looking for a secure online payment processor for convenient and sppedy transfer of funds to our investors.

2001 - Over 700 new customers have registered with us. The total a**ets under management has grown to $21M. We are still working on a private basis. Minimum deposit amount was reduced to $10,000. We started working with such online processors as PayPal, E-gold and OSGold.

2002 - Was the year of many changes. We are watching public HYIP market closely. We witness several due diligence services scamming a lot of people. OSgold payment processors runs off with customers' funds. Luckily the amounts we held in OSgold were not significant and it did not have any negative effect on us. 2,000 new accounts were opened.

2003 - Referral program was introduced. The interest rate is increased to 0.5% daily. The continue working with e-gold and stop using Paypal.

2004 - The year started with broadly positive equity markets and bright global economic prospects. SOLIDINVESTMENT expects that 2004 will be a good year for equities with synchronous growth in both USA, Europe and Japan.

April 2004 - In SOLIDINVESTMENT launched 2 new Plans, very attractive for new investors. Our Internet subdivision becomes a separate independent entity. It is designed for those customers who need complete anonymity and high returns. This is made possible due to offshore jurisdiction of our fund.

December 2004 - We open a new company. It will represent our fund in the web. Over 300 new members registered accounts with us during December.

Statistics according to their Site:

STATISTICS
Total Investors: 29,897
Total Invested: $20,230,328
Total Profit: $36,717,624

*** Why Some People Mistakenly Think We Are A Scam ***



Q. There is a website called http://www.buyselldomains.com/. Your domain is on sale there. Why is that?
A. This is a scam website. According to our investigation this website is run by admins of some HYIPs that try to slander us. If you do not believe us, try to buy this domain. We have contacted them many times and never heard back from them.



Q. Jungleventures.com have scammed me.
A. There is no doubt they did. This HYIP (www.jungleventures.com) was in no way related to us. When we started working online all our company documents were displayed on our website and anyone who could access our website could view or download them. At that time we were popular among the closed groups of investors and no one could from outside this groups could access our website. But some Russian scammer managed to sneak in, downloaded the documents and used them in his scam HYIP. Many people who were deceived by that HYIP believed that it was our HYIP and put the blame on us. Frankly speaking we became aware of all this only after that HYIP went down with investors' money. This case has been reported to the FBI and they are now looking for this scammer. Thus, SolidInvestment is the name of our group, Jungle Ventures LTD is the legal name under which it is registered. So now when you hear or read that Jungle Ventures is a scam, please find out whether they are talking about jungleventures.com or about us.



Q. Why do you say that you have been working since 1998 of no such wesbite existed according to http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://solidinvestment.com?
A. We have been working since 1998, but have been in operation online since 2004. Before that this domain was registered by us, but never used to provide investment services. Most of the transactions and contacts were handled offline.



Q. I have read somewhere that you are going to run off with our funds in 2 weeks.
A. Yes, we here this every day during the last couple of years. Please note that such rumours are spread by those who are not interested in our growth - scammers who own their HYIPs. They understand that we are one of the most seriuos HYIPs in recent history. We do not depend on the influx of new funds from investors, we are not Ponzi and we are able to pay interest without it. If we wanted to run off with your funds, we would do that long time ago. You better be very cautious with what such people say.



Q. You are listed as scam on http://www.goldpolice.com/cocoons.
A. One more warning. We have spoken to the admin of this website as soon as we started promoting our website on HYIP monitoring websites. He said that we are a reliable HYIP and he has nothing to say against us. In some time we were labelled as scam and no matter how hard we tried to contact them afterwards, they did not get back to our emails. So, beware of such wesbites.



Q. I have seen another HYIP that has the same contact data. Why do you deceive people?
A. We are not deceiving you. You are being deceived by someone who is using our contact info. Please remember that we are the real owners of our company. You can check our certificate at http://www.certification.titanic-technology.dk



Q. I still have no trust in you.
A. We can understand that. We will continue working for years to come (at least 10 years more) and will give people an opportunity to earn money. It is rather easy when you invest with professionals.



Q. How can you comment on the information that we can view on ifsc.gov.bz?
A. Here is another case of overreacting. Some of the investors contacted authorities in Belize in the effort to find whether SolidInvestment is indeed registered in Belize. Surely, they were told that there is no such company in Belize. The reason why there is no such company is that our domain name solidinvestment.com is not the name of our company. We do not display our company registration details on our website, we provide it only on request. Our company name is Jungle Ventures Ltd. It is stated on ifsc.gov.bz that Jungle Ventures Ltd is indeed registered in Belize, but does not have a license to provide financial services. That is true, legally Jungle Ventures does not have any investment activities. It is responsible for customer service, hosting and technical support of our website and database and for several other similar activities. Investments are handled by other companies. We will not reveal any info about these companies as we treat this information as confidential.6

According to the information Above
Point 1: Location of this Company is in Belize City Belize. Since the United States does not have Jursidiction there, there is o recourse if they do run with your money.

Point 2: Anytime Someone Takes money from you to Invest elsewhere besides their OWN company they should be a Registered Securities Broker

Point 3: Sheding liability from offers they point you to, invest for you.

Point 4: If they are Authorized Representitives of an Well Established Investment banks they Would be registered securities Brokers, which they state they are not.

Point 5: Hedge Funds are exempt from registration at this time.

Point 6: They Give your money to another investment company. If this is the case they should be a Registered Broker.

Analysis, with them being out of the Jurisdiction of the U.S. there is no repercussions for their actions, contradictions in their statements that they are Representatives of a Well Established Investment bank, though they are not registered brokers.

I would stay away from this Investment scheme, as there are NO safeguards, or recourse, in play for you, or your Funds.

What kind of a Mickey Mouse forum is this???

There are several hyips listed here that are real and paying. I've made ten times my original investment in Solid Investment, and then some.

Not that this forum is interested in the truth but, SolidInvestment is not their company name in Belize. It's only their website, dummy!

Here's some info for you that is the result of someone who really understood what Due Dilligence means. Be careful tho. You may decide to jump on this bandwagon. That is if you can open your minds and leave this post on this piece of garbage you call a forum!   Smiley

I have received emails from others stating SolidInvestment.com  is a scam, but with only lip service to back up their claim.  I personally feel they pay too much also, but I am finding other companies paying close to the same I feel are real.   Remember OsOpps ran their charade a full year before folding at a 40%/mo payrate. 

Forum postings continue to show flawless operation.  I have experienced flawless operation since I joined. So I emailed the support person there, Rafael Sosa,  for some DD on their company; and surprisingly he sent me a copy of their certificate of Incorporation which matches the Whois information shown below. The phone rings but you have to leave a message. And he DID call me back. If you are not a VIP with significant funds with them, they do not waste phone time on you. This was explained to me by Rafael Sosa, the support guy who has been very patient with my demands. And the snail mailing address they show on the corporate document matches the whois address in the whois information below.
   
I entered this program doing this.  I put in as much as I was willing to lose. I set my compounding to OFF, which means all my interest and referral fees were available to withdraw. When my interest and referral fees returned my principal I then respent 50% of my interest and referral money  back into principal (with the "it is now locked up for 7 months feature") and 50% was available for immediate withdrawal, which I  do every few days.  That way my principal keeps growing, and I still see real profits at the same time.  This program would have to have a year under it's belt with me before I would consider setting my compounding to 100% and putting in large amounts. That approach may be too conservative. This may be a great program but I think it is too early to tell yet and we should take a conservative approach in any funding.

However in the program's defense I have requested several  withdrawals so far and have been paid promptly every time, I have changed settings on my site frequently to test the system - always with immediate positive results, they email me with account changes every time; so far I have nothing bad to say about how the website operates or their performance. One person emailed me stating Jungle Ventures was a scam, but further investigation revealed a Russian website copied all their stuff and had a website named jungleventures.com and  scammed people using their name and their information. Jungle Ventures is their IBC name, not their website.  Solid Investment website claims existence since 1998, but have NOT been on the net since 1998, even though the domain name was registered in 1998. Dec 2004 is when they came to the net.  A rather long history that was presented to me as due diligence requested, stated that they operated as a small group of individuals privately with word of mouth and private clients since 1998. Sam Colins is the founder and active chief executive officer and CEO of Solid Investment Group. It's Sam - the CEO, a support Service Representative, Rafael Sosa whom I have been communicating with,  Pablo Padroza and a group of technical admin people who are taking care of the server that constitute Solid Investment; plus the bank Sam is part owner of which is largely responsible for the investment activity.
 
Sam says he has  been in this business for over 20 years with a degree in finance, and he initially worked in an investment bank. Presently, he has shares  in an investment bank that is engaged in trading on a global scale. He founded Solid Investment in 1998 together with a group of associates and at first only provided investment services to a small group of investors whom they all knew in person. They have not shown me any documents showing this 1998 to 2004 Solid Investment affiliation.

A different version of this might go like this.  While it's true that the company name of "Jungle Ventures Ltd." (the name of their parent company) was registered in Belize several years ago, what you don't see unless you do some additional digging is that this company name was a previously set up "shelf company" that the new owner purchased as part of an offshore, pre-made package deal. How this works is that people set up offshore corporations all the time, but when it comes time to renew them one, two, three years down the road, they wind up letting them go. Instead of dissolving these corporations, the company that originally set them up for the client takes over the corporation by paying the renewal fee to keep it active, then sells it to other clients for a hefty profit that want to purchase a ready made offshore entity that already has a history behind it instead of appearing as a newly formed organization, giving them the illusion of being an established entity instead of a new start up company. Jungle Ventures Ltd. may be such a shelf company that was purchased by this new owner in December of 2004. So technically, the website and Belize corporation are legit and both have been around for several years now, that much is true. However, neither may have been owned by the current owner until December 2004 which makes the statements about the history of Solid Investment.com going back to 1998 dubious. This is the only aspect of Solid Investment that I haven't been able to prove one way or the other.
 
As they  realized that this undertaking was pretty successful, they took it even more seriously. So they opened a program that could allow low and medium worth investors to participate. For a  long while they did not do any advertising.  New investors were  referred by  existing ones or came from closed groups like mine.

In year 2004 they made the offer available to the general public. Any person could join them. The only requirement was a non-disclosure agreement  and they did not require any personal information from their customers. That has since changed, they now want your information. 

Most of the communication between investors and them is handled via Rafael Sosa,  head of the customer service department. You can contact him at any time 24/7 via email for us medianos and even by phone if you are a big spender (that's what I got out of it).  He has been with Solid Investment for 5 years and joined as an investor at first. They do not strive towards attracting the largest possible number of new investors. The investors who are with them now, refer their friends, relatives and associates.  That is how they increase clientele. They are always glad to serve people of all ages and walks of life and will treat every investor individually. As of today they have over 38,000 investors and over 42 million invested. They came to the net to get investors because,
a. it is becoming more commonplace to do that and
b. the types of investments that are available to them now which generate extraordinary returns require larger amounts of money. If they truly started back in 1998, this progression makes sense, especially since Sam Colins is part owner of the actual bank itself that is involved with these large trading contracts. They act as an intermediary between us and the opportunities that require large amounts of money to enter. Their main investment sectors are PPP, bank debentures and MTNs. These are the activities that generate the largest returns.. They also diversify their assets by investing in real estate and rapidlly growing young companies. All trading operations are carried out through the bank Sam is one of the owners of. Highly qualified traders perform the daily operations. Sam has over 20 years trading experience and every trader involved has at least ten years of experience they state. 

When asked if they would provide proof of real trading;  statements, trading records, etc; the response was no, such documents are confidential. Solid Investments is involved in such contracts that do not allow them to reveal such. However, they do reserve the right to reveal such information to high net worth individuals whose funds are invested individually.

They do NOT piggyback off of other online programs and all funds invested are properly diversified to reduce the risk of losing funds.

Longevity of any program is what ALL members want.   When they started offering their service to the general public, they had a properly designed business plan that will allow them to operate successfully for at least 10 years. That plan is continually being updated and the ten year date is still good.

They have also  established a  reserve fund? They claim they are at all times capable of returning all the funds to investors and have a special backup fund that comprises 20% of all their assets.

They are planning to introduce their website in other languages soon.

They have a physical office at the address shown in the whois information below but not just anybody can walk in. The office is for personal meetings and  VIP investors only.

They have their own  highly secured dedicated servers and use DDOS protection as well as redirect or duplicate web sites with all of the information
as the main web site contains. Those are solidinvestment.com and solidinvestment.net.

They provide communication with all members regarding what is going on within the program. I DO like the way this outfit communicates.
 
 Here are answers to the two most commonly asked questions when people are doing their due diligence on SolidInvestment.

1) There is a website that is selling your domain for 100K USD. Why is that?
Answer: This is a fake domain, we have tried to contact this website's owners many times, but they have not removed this domain from the list of domains for sale. We assume this is a scam website.

2) Your company has recently scammed a lot of people. What can you say about it?  Answer: The hyip jungleventures.com was run by Russian scammers. They took our legal registration details from our website and used it to scam investors. We are not affiliated with jungleventures.com in any way.
Jungle Ventures is our IBC name; Solidinvestment.com  is our online domain name component of that. We have never been out there as jungleventures.com
We started our operations long before they went online. Now we do keep our legal registration details on our website which is provided  to our active investors.

I have received emails from others stating SolidInvestment.com  is a scam, but with only lip service to back up their claim.  I personally feel they pay too much also, but I am finding other companies paying close to the same I feel are real.   Remember OsOpps ran their charade a full year before folding at a 40%/mo payrate. 


Well thats what we are talking about!  PONZI SCAMS FOLD and TAKE PEOPLES MONEY......We Uncover Ponzi Scams.

I also see tat Sam Colins of SolidInvestment has changed the payout Plan again....Thus it takes longer now to do a payout, so he has a better chance to cover the amount owed to older investments as new investments are paid in.

This ponzi is going to collapse soon.

there are now at least 5 different occurrences of  "Solid Investment" in the scam database,

many are complaining of not getting paid, see:
http://www.goldpoll.com/details/1482/

Their 6% daily plan is a big joke to me. Remember PIPS opened a new 3% daily plan to replace the original 2% daily plan before they went down?
