If you have ever lost money to an HYIP program, I’m sure you feel bad about it, but at least you know there are risks involved that the program is a ponzi scheme.
But what if you lost money because an a$$hole lawyer produced a court order to freeze the e-gold account of your HYIP program? Take note: This HYIP program has been paying you diligently EVERY DAY WITHOUT FAIL.
How would you feel? Would you want to curse and scream and beat the living $HIT out of this lawyer? A lawyer who expects to take a 30% cut out of the total HYIP program funds in order to go away?
Well… let me give you a test case…. www.real-fund.com is the victim and the lawyer is Michael Bruzzese.
IF you ask e-gold why the accounts were frozen this is their reply:

I happen to agree with you on these lawyers. Why does e-gold honor
block request. I thought they where oversea operation. Some lawyer trying
to freeze SI wanted 30% of my invest in SI for getting my money back.
Sounds like lawyers are trying to bankroll fee associated with these programs.
How are these programs going to survive in the future. Probably why most
good ones are private and very private they are.

I believe that Michael J. Bruzzese is the same lawyer that were pursuing a lawsuit against SolidInvesment.
Curt Crowley of http://www.ponziscams.com/ also have spoken to this lawyer regarding SolidInvestment. (as a comment in http://hyipblog.nobshyip.net/2006/07/04/solid-investment-is-not-paying/ )
Btw I am a member of Real-Fund and I hope this problem will be resolved asap. As I understand that Michael J. Bruzzese email reply is an automated response, so I hope someone can really contact Michael J. Bruzzese to sort things out.

[...] Like I said in my post before this, I emailed Michael J. Bruzzese, the guy whom I was fuming over because he closed down MMHIP. [...]

Bush is forever saying that democracies do not invade other countries and start wars. Well, he did just that. He invaded Iraq, started a war, and killed people. What do you think? What is he doing to us, and what is he doing to the world?
What happened to us, people? When did we become such lemmings?
We have lost friends and influenced no one. No wonder most of the world thinks we suck. Thanks to what george bush has done to our country during the past three years, we do!

I dont have to much confidence left in E-gold nowadays.. Thy block accounts on daily bassis , ask for documents to be send or even DELETE accounts without paying you the balance..
And guess what .per their terms they have the right to do it:
” 4.6. Right of Association Issuer reserves the right to refuse service to particular individuals or entities, at its sole discretion, with or without cause.”
Read a story on my blog on how a guy got his account frozen with $5500 inside

If you feel that you were wrongly accused (ie. libeled), then why not sue the lawyer
