PLEASE MAKE DONATIONS SO 44 CAN KEEP GOING

Where does my money go?

To website and forum hosting (server, firewall and bandwidth), forum improvements (maintenance and programming) and content creation.

Even though Cyprus44 receives £8000 funding on a yearly basis, our running costs are higher this year.

Our yearly costs are roughly as follows:
Dedicated server hosting with MS SQL database engine ~ £4000
We had to install a good firewall due to computer attacks ~ £5000
Bandwidth charges ~ £1000
Maintenance, backups and coding ~ £2000
Content creation ~ £1000
TOTAL: £13000
How much money are you hoping to raise?

Our yearly expenses cost £13000.
We receive £5000 from advertisers.
We receive £3000 from supporting companies by Izzet and friends.
We plan to raise the remaining £5000 through donations and other fundraising activities.
How do I donate?

You can easily donate via PayPal using any major credit card.
Please send your donations to [email protected].
What can I do to help you spread the word?

Please tell your friends and family. Ask them if they use Cyprus44...
What if I don't want to appear on the Donors List?

Let us know by email, and we'll show your contribution as "Anonymous".
How can I contact you?

Maybe they can ask the UK Government to add it to their list - see article below.

Another collection of Michael Stephen's "careful you don't step on the vomit in the street" articles

More importantly I hope that people take the above warning seriously since this particular website www.cyprus44.com has attempted the exact same scam in the past.

I guess the cheapskate carpetbaggers don't want to know then. My they would be completely lost without it.

I suppose they could ask Turkey to fund them, I wonder why they haven't.

How do you know about the scamming bit re DT.

Just wondered 8)

Got it from the FBI website. Apparently the Nigerian/Belgian scammers that operate that website have been keeping the FBI internet dept busy for a long time.
