LikesXL Review: €50 a pop credit card Ponzi fraud
There is no information on the LikesXL website indicating who owns or runs the business.
The LikesXL website domain (“likesxl.com”) was registered on the 24th of August 2015, with “Kolar Peter” (Peter Kolar?) listed as the owner. An address in Mauren, Liechtenstein (a known tax-haven) is also provided.
LikesXL itself would appear to be based out of Austria, with the default language on the LikesXL site set to German, the LikesXL website hosted with an Austrian company and Austria the country featured in example material explaining how affiliates sign up.
Possibly due to language-barriers, I was unable to find any further information on Peter Kolar.
Of note is that LikesXL is being promoted with dubious marketing pitches that mention a “well-known credit card company”:
A couple of board members of a Major CC company (some of them I have met personally) have been in contact with Mike Deese (MyAdvertisingPays) and other advertising platform owners for over a year, and they have learned a LOT…
This Major CC that we all know has now pre-launched their own Advertising Platform / Revenue Share last Saturday, starting from The Netherlands.
I was there and was amazed by what they have created. As you know, I have years of experience in this area.
This Major Company has partnered up with giants like Mercedes, Volvo, Disney Worldwide, Universal Studios, Sony, Gucci, Prada, MacDonalds, Versace, Porsche, Audi, etc etc., to name just a few.
These companies are paying millions in advertising each year and they will pay many millions to this new platform for people to simply view their ads and their offers.
It has been thoroughly tested in Norway for over 3 months with 8000 people. Launch will be on 19th of October.
MyAdvertisingPays is an ad-credit Ponzi scheme launched in late 2013, with it fast approaching the typical two-year Ponzi lifespan.
It should go without saying that reputable credit card companies aren’t in the habit of launching Ponzi schemes, so take pitches like the above with a dumptruck full of salt.
As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.
The LikesXL Product Line
LikeXL has no retailable products or services, with affiliates only able to market LikesXL affiliate membership itself.
The LikesXL Compensation Plan
The LikesXL compensation plan sees affiliates invest in €50 EUR “PR packs” and get paid to recruit others who do the same.
Passive ROIs
Advertised ROIs on each PR pack investment is between €0.35 and €1.20 EUR daily.
There is currently no limit on the size of the ROI offered on each pack, with ROIs continued to be paid out subject to continued new PR pack investment.
Note however that affiliates are capped on how many PR packs they can invest in, which is determined by how much they pay in LikesXL affiliate fees:
- Green (€29.90 annually) – 50 PR packs
- Silver (€29 a month) – 150 PR packs
- Gold (€39 a month) – 300 PR packs
- Diamond (€55 a month) – 900 PR packs
Residual Commissions
Residual commissions in LikesXL are paid via a unilevel compensation structure.
A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):
If any level 1 affiliates go on to recruit new affiliates of their own, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.
If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.
LikesXL cap payable unilevel levels at five, with how many levels an affiliate can earn on determined by how much they pay in “downline fees”:
- €60 EUR downline fee = earnings on up to three unilevel levels
- €120 EUR downline fee = earnings on up to four unilevel levels
- €180 EUR downline fee = earnings on all five available unilevel levels
Commissions are paid out as a percentage of funds invested in PR packs, with how much of a percentage paid out determined by how much a LikesXL affiliate paid in membership fees:
- Green (€29.90 annually) – 4% on levels 1 and 2, 3% on level 3, 2% on level 4 and 1% on level 5
- Silver (€29 every month) – 6% on level 1, 4% on level 2, 3% on level 3, 2% on level 4 and 1% on level 5
- Gold and Diamond (€39 and €55 every month respectively) – 8% on level 1, 4% on level 2, 3% on level 3, 2% on level 4 and 1% on level 5
Joining LikesXL
Affiliate membership with LikesXL is available at four pricepoints:
- Green – €29.90 annually
- Silver – €29 monthly
- Gold – €39 monthly
- Diamond – €55 monthly
The primary difference between these membership options is income potential through the LikesXL compensation plan (residual commissions and max amount of PR packs that can be invested in).
Residual commissions require payment of an additional €60 to €180. Investment in PR packs (€50 EUR per pack) will also add to the cost of LikesXL affiliate membership.
Conclusion
Modeled on MyAdvertisingPays without the advertising, LikesXL offers up a stock-standard €50 EUR in, unlimited ROIs out Ponzi scheme.
The nature of the unlimited ROIs favors the owner(s) of the scheme and early investors, who by nature of the ROIs paid out will walk away with most of the funds invested.
Those who join after fund the withdrawals of LikesXL’s initial investors, with everyone losing out.
The payment of a “downline fee” and affiliate monthly fees dictating referral commission percentages also adds a “pay to play” layer to the scheme.
Basically the more a LikesXL affiliate pays in fees, the higher their income potential.
Income potential in an MLM opportunity should always be based on sales performance, rather than the amount of fees an affiliate pays.
The credit card company marketing pitch doing the rounds meanwhile is just smoke and mirrors, which is why you get the “we can’t disclose any company names” nonsense.
The bottom line is there is absolutely no reason for any company not to have its name associated with a legitimate business enterprise it is supposedly operating.
Further research reveals the credit card company is question to be “EuroCard”:
Eurocard is intimately involved with LXL and you can be sure they know the answer.
They assured quite emphatically that it can be used in the USA. It is a Mastercard owned company, is a MasterCard with special Credit Card like qualities.
That said, the company itself doesn’t appear to be tied to LevelXL, with Kolar instead purportedly linking the two through a third-party merchant he owns:
Company is owned by Peter Kolar, and he is very private about this. He is also the owner of Cardcompact, from which we order the Eurocard (product of MasterCard) for payouts.
How long is CardCompact’s account with EuroCard going to last before financial fraud filters are triggered? Your guess is as good as mine.
Dr Marcus Rossman is the brain behind the company and, it would seem the man who got it rolling with M/C – see below. He has been on the MasterCard board of directors or years.
Roland Stagnate is the LikesXL promotion man and has been with MasterCard for 20 years and 6 years board member. He is constantly on the road now to promote now.
MasterCard board is fully aware of the development of LikesXL, and when Herr Rossman raised the idea and explained the concept, the board instructed him to go forward and form the company.
That was the birth of LikesXL, right in the MasterCard board room.
It now has the full support of M/C which also guarantees its Corporate participants. The company also works in association with Europacard, also a MasterCard, which is owned by MasterCard.
The above is taken from another LikesXL marketing pitch doing the rounds. Preempting the inevitably denials once shit hits the fan and MasterCard start cancelling merchant processor accounts, I’m just going to leave it up there for the record.
As with all Ponzi schemes, once recruitment of new investors dies down so too will new funds entering LikesXL.
At that point the daily ROIs are strung along for a while (to give the owners time to clear out the company’s accounts), with affiliates realizing the scheme has collapsed only when they attempt to withdraw their displayed backoffice funds.
So pretty much you’re either waiting for MasterCard to shut this down or for the scheme to collapse organically, with the majority of investors losing funds either way.
Sounds great, where do I sign up?
I can easily see MC’s phone ringing off the hook with people inquiring. Kaboom!
This reminds me of when BannersBroker was touting how they were approved and endorsed by MasterCard. Only one problem, MasterCard had no clue, but when they found out MC was immediately pulled from BB.
Guess they thought it had been too long for people to remember BB’s inept attempt at trying to get credibility off the backs of MC, so they are trying to pull the same stunt.
Anyone falling for all this BS deserves to lose it all!
Of course we have the two major pimps, Ken Russo and Dr. Goddie Ude, pimping this. These two would be lucky to have a combined IQ of 90 to pimp this it is so blatant of a Ponzi.
Well, I should hear back from Ms. Cohen from MasterCard International tomorrow or Thursday.
It is going to be interesting to get her take on how MC is endorsing them and a couple of their board members founded this company.
Keep an eye out for info in the coming days. The ponzi pimps are traveling out to Spain (Barcelona) to be entertained by the owner Peter Kolar.
For anyone following this, you will note the story has changed quite a lot.
Currently the big one being told to draw people in by all the ponzi pimps who are getting this directly from Peter Kolar. McDonald’s is working with Likesxl for advertising to the tune of $35 million.
But it doesn’t stop there, BMW and Mercedes have also been mentioned. (just don’t ask for proof)
Many of the MAP + Monsoon names are promoting this on the quiet, the MAP America move has them terrified.
The following is making the rounds to the pushers. Sorry for the length, it contains so many delusions and interesting info.
I would like to make a correction to the above article, Card Compact is Peter Kolar’s company (or at least that is what the main people are told) CC offers many different cards, one of them is the europacard.
So Peter has connections to both CC and Likesxl, they are using the Mastercard connection to draw investors in (as you can see below they continue to push the Mastercard = legit). (Card Compact ltd has two listed directors, neither are Peter Kolar)
In MLM, this only happens when something dodgy is going on.
Lol level over 9000. These guys are full of it.
yeah…..when you are asking people for money, that’s just not going to happen.
indeed.
Credit card biz needs not to share any revenue with any one. It needs to make EXISTING members spend more, and it has plenty of mechanisms to do that, such as rebates, perks, and so on.
The model makes no sense on the corporate side. It’s clearly bogus.
Their website looks like an amateur produced it. With all their money talk blah blah, you’d figure they would at least build a site with some sort of wow factor.
Lynndel, who do we contact at Mastercard, have you received a response ?
newsroom.mastercard.com/contact-us/
The two guys running the show have not put anything in writing on the website, for obvious reasons.
If you mention this to any of the believers they roll out world class excuses. Yet legit businesses openly make statements about their relationships and developments.
Currently they are leading with the whole Swiss trustee and director angle, so far as claiming this is proof they are legit (it’s like people forget Banners Broker and others also had all this in place, and more, once those directors found out what was taking place they hit the brakes).
They also claim the trustee is the only person who has access to funds and that they are regulated by the Swiss government, so if anything was wrong, why would that person risk their neck.
Coninuing to use Mastercard as a selling point and taking advantage of the Peter Kolar/Card Compact – Europacard links.
Paypal comedy claims
As many of you have noted, they say 2 years in the works yet their website is completely amateur.
They have only two German ad networks which are Belboon and Affilinet who Likesxl are signed up as a publisher. Hence the low quality German ads. (If you want a laugh, ask any Likesxl pushers the two company names and they have no idea what the heck you are talking about).
If these guys are pro’s and have a Swiss government appointed trustee, not to mention trying to draw in the MAPs and Traffic Monsoon crowd, you’d think they would make sure the launch and website were better than the rivals and not follow the same failed click 10 ads per day ponzi concept.
They are rushing to get the site in Russian, Chinese, Thai and Czech.
There is a little war going on, MAP + TM have some kind of agreement where their leaders can openly promote and hold meetings for both schemes.
Where as both schemes are vocally against Likesxl, apparently someone claimed Stepsys called it a ponzi and people should avoid it.
Of course Likesxl people are using this as a “well they attack us because we are legit unlike them, their people are also leaving to join us”.
All the main pushers are spreading this :
This is a SCAM. The script they are using is a $90 script that is over 10 years old.
They do not have Coca cola or Gucci or any name brand advertisers. They do have Pac Man in the back office though! LOL…
I just can not believe that people are joining and promoting such a poorly made site. MAPs is ugly also but at least somewhat more “legit” than this pile of poo.
My 2 cents on “LikesXL” and yes I am a so called “ponzi pimp” myself and I would never pimp LikesXL, a pimp has to have some standards.
i know the owners really well and i can say , it is scam, regards from vienna
Drop some specifics that are not yet in the public view, Danny.
LikesXL are now holding meetings in various countries. United Kingdom Manchester on the 24th November and London on the 25th.
Manchester Airport Marriot Hotel – Hale Road Hale Barns, Manchester WA15 8XW GB
Peter Kolar and LikesXL people are now claiming that MAPs and Traffic Monsoon approached him and his company, Card Compact ltd to get Mastercards in place for payouts.
The story goes that they looked into MAPS & TM and found them to not have any external advertisers and so, they declined.
TM, MAPs and LikesXL are all the same. It would be interesting if someone from MAPs/TM could make comment addressing this claim from Peter Kolar and his people.
Dear Sir, Madam,
Kindly explain why you not sending us confirmation email each PR pack buying or every top up likesxl account. We don’t have any proof of purchase in this way?
And please mention how to find the details of your company trustees.
Thank you,
S Guruge
Approached today, so glad that, although the internet HAS scams, there are plenty of resources on the internet to counter them, with advice here.
Interesting to see that Ian Driscoll (I.D.) is promoting this. He was the UK leader in Banners Broker (BB).
From the recent fraud investigation, it would appear that I.D. would have known that BB was a ponzi BEFORE he pushed it across the UK.
He then got involved with Flexikom who are yet to prove their legitimacy and rumours are (unsurprisingly) that he has been involved with others.
He clearly has no regards for the people who he signs up, know that it will all go pear shaped eventually. But like so many others, they are out to make a fast buck before it goes bang.
Uinvest held meetings worldwide too. They scammed members for about three years making them think they were actually investing into existing businesses in Europe. LikesXL is the same.
Dear Sir,
Now only, I went through your review about Likes XL site, and thanked you several times (in my mind) for having saved me from becoming a victim to the glib persuasive ad, liberally using the names of top companies of the world.
Now, through this reply I am thanking you again in person for your act of saving me from falling into a pitfall.
If you don’t mind, can you suggest me one or two dependable and legit PTC/GPT sites (new or old) that can fetch me around 800 USD (around 50 to 60 thousand rupees), a month.
Please excuse me if you take this request of mine, through this reply box as improper and lack of etiquette.
Thanks and regards,
R.Shamarao.
We don’t give out recommendations here. Your due diligence is up to you.
When the Mafia in Las Vegas realized that there was more money in honesty they went legit.
Ponzi owners end up in jail, hence it is a pretty stupid move to start a ponzi.
Intelligent business people will start a legit business, make a ton more money than the ponzi people, and get to enjoy the money too.
Let’s see which ones these are.
What’s there to see, we already know LikesXL’s business model…
What you mean this Oz?
That seems to be some insight you have on dodgy MLM companies. Is that what you think LikesXL’s business plan is ‘Dodgy MLM’.
You must have a depth of wisdom about MLM companies as well then, and those which are ‘dodgy’, and those which are not. It is not explained further than that. Please bless us further with your ‘knowledge’.
@Raz
I was quoting comment #5. Which you’d know if you’d actually read the review and all comments.
I think LikesXL is Ponzi fraud based on its business model, which you’d know if you read the review.
Try actually reading the review first before commenting. Otherwise you come of sounding like a silly git.
So far I’m satisfied that the Trustee Mr Hess does work for a Swiss Trustee company called Artha.. They’re a firm regulated by Swiss authorities.
I’m also happy that Kolar owns Setimo which owns Likes XL. I’ve also seen literally dozens of Fortune 500 companies advertising on their website.
I think you’d have to be pretty wreckless to have such links to major global advertisets. The litigation would be almost immediate, and massive from 157 such huge companies.
So far nobody here has given me any evidence against this company apart from their own opinions and conjecture which count for nothing.
I’m open minded. Please give me factual evidence and I’ll drop Likes XL like a hot brick of solid Gold. Thanks
LikesXL’s compensation plan.
Yeah, whodathunk the business model trump waffle about trustees and associations with Fortune 500 companies?
Certainly not you, but that’s why we’re here.
That is spot on Shaka.
1) Such well known and very large companies would not associate themselves with a ponzi.
2) Peter Kolar and the co-owner have too much to lose, as they have prominent business positions.
No evidence at all that they are in anyway similar to Raj Dixit and Chris Smith from BB who have both been arrested.
Congrats as well to you Shaka on not falling into the A+B+C etc, and doing your research.
^^ The only research you need is LikesXL’s compensation plan.
50 EUR investments used to pay off existing investors? Yep, Ponzi scheme.
Everything else is just noise.
@Shaka

need anything else?
OK. “LIKES XL”, has a business that can make a lot of people money worldwide.
Now 1st look at a similar model. It was called, “zeekRewards”. The different is “Zeekreward” paid out in “24” hours.
What happened is the owner of Zeekreward, hired SEe they didint know what the hell they were doing. instead of giving the profit to the members”‘ the owner promise hiring executive staff big money.
ZEEK REWARD…OWNER SPEND THE REREVENUE ON THE HIRING OF EXECUTIVE STAFF and did not give the money back to the poor souls who were promise a return.
Yes. The biginers will make money but until it is secured by banks or gov the profits sharing system will not last.. them andpaith Ok GQ send.
I got $600. euro to invest in Likes/xl Do you!
Um what?
Zeek Rewards was a Ponzi scheme. The early investors got most of the money and ripped everyone else off. That’s how Ponzi schemes work.
Who told you that? Your upline?
Zeek’s Receivership lists the staff at less than 20. Most were owed money. The “new” exec staff? There was only one guy. Zeek wasn’t a real company where new president gets a gazillion signing bonus.
If you STILL haven’t figured out Zeek’s a ponzi scheme and they cheated you, this many years later, but continue to make excuses for them, you will be scammed over and over again, until you wise up.
Just want to give a real account of what is happying in the real world. Oh! Zeek Reward had a US banking but LIKES XL bank is in SPAIN. the SEC can’t touch them. Get in early and make a lot of money. GQ send
K Chang, I am not making false statements. I agree with you that Zeekrewards is a ponzi.
Zeekrewards court case is international news and still on going. So I don’t need an up line to tell me what happened. I am saying LIKES XL is the same model setup as Seek Rewards.
And? A Ponzi scheme is mathematically guaranteed to collapse. Both Zeek Rewards and TelexFree were on the verge of collapse by the time regulators shut them down.
So you are saying that because US Law can’t touch a scheme in Spain people should join suspect a Ponzi scheme?
Have you heard of “Interpol”? Or perhaps, Profitable Sunrise? How Profitable Sunrise, with shell companies in UK and ran out of Europe, was dismantled by multiple nations with a simultaneous raid lead by US authorities?
Just taken a punt on likes Xl via a close friend of mine, (small investment) work colleague also taken the plunge with a larger sum to get things rolling. Watch this space……!
@Rusty You know it’s a scam right?
This guy probably doesn’t look both ways when he crosses the street.
Even when told he wants to put money into a scam – he will do it anyway.
You go bro.
Heck, what’s the harm when there is no consequence for your mere participation. In fact, if it does get busted in the future, maybe our tax dollars can help you get your initial ‘punt’ money back and consider you a victim.
I was sent the video link for this scam yesterday. At 2 minutes in the presenter shows a slide that says “Did you know that currently Fortune 500 Companies spend 26 BILLION dollars per day in advertising?”
26 Billion? Every day? That means that, on average, each and every company in the Fortune 500 list spends $52 MILLION on advertising. EVERY DAY??????????? Yeah, sure!!
Don’t these idiots even know how to con people properly? lol
Thanks for usefull info.
I already bought 3 PR pack to take a chance.. never mind of loosing it.
But my main and important concern is why no one dare to contact at least one of 500 fortune companies to find out the truth?
Who we can contact to verify that do those advertisers (like coke, Audi or KFC) really have a connection with or pay LikesXL to get advertised?
It has already been done, and they deny any Partnership, MasterCard and Mercedes were contacted, Ill try and find The links.
A Ponzi scheme is a down line that has no end. (Ozedit: No. Bullshit arguments based on false premise removed.)
@Edward
A Ponzi scheme is defined by the use of newly invested funds to pay off existing investors. The size of a downline is entirely irrelevant.
Non-MLM Ponzi schemes don’t even have downlines.
Nope. Charles Ponzi’s victims never had any “downlines”. Don’t try to “redefine” existing definitions as that make you look like trying to divert the conversation and shows your ignorance.
Here is Mastercard, Mercedes reaction:
moneymakergroup.com/Likesxl-Likesxlcom-t503170.html&view=findpost&p=1109521856#entry1109521856
Some people never believes in anything. This company LikesXL is making so many people euro millionaire while some are her castigating.
I think it works, have few people to testify.
If by “works” you mean early investors are stealing millions of EUR from new investors – yeah sure… LikesXL “works”.
And where are you sourcing your “millionaires” data from?
Interesting stuff and help for my “due diligence”exercise.
Finding information to present to passionate believer in the idea of network marketing, which I personally have an inbuilt abhorrence of. I may have already got enough but, as an extra question how about opinions on:
HOW LONG BEFORE THIS ONE COLLAPSES AND FOLK DONT GET BACK WHAT THEY HAVE PAID IN?
No recruitment and new investment = kaboom.
I was foolish enough to sign up for this through a trusted friend. Even more foolish i didn’t look at the Terms and Conditions before putting in 500 Euros.
Now when I try to red the T&C I discover it is all in German. An email to the ‘support team’ tell me they don’t have the document in English.
I’m trying to get my payment refunded. No success yet.
christine,
And if you choose to do a normal cashout, isn’t that an option? I think they are still making money with this scam at the moment, so you could try, please keep us updated.
I don’t know what a ‘normal cashout’ is. They asked for a copy of my bank card, even though I had sent them my bank account details.
I told them I wasn’t willing to send a copy of the card for obvious security reasons. They replied I could tape out all the numbers but for the last 4 digits of the card number. So I did that saying they should give that advice to everyone when they make such a request.
I never heard back despite many emails from me asking for information about when I could expect a refund. Today, I received another email asking for a copy of my bank card…
Has anyone apart from Christine had a bad experience with this company. Ive signed up but I’m reluctant to provide proof of ID.
I made 2 withdrawals to my europacard and that gave no problem whatsoever.
They are kean when it’s about security, which is one of the strong points of likesxl. They fight against fraud and the only way to do that is to ask for proof and that is what they do.
So if Christine did not deliver proof, then waits and think the question for proof will go away then of course it will not happen and they will not answer anymore. They will keep asking for proof.
But maybe Christine should contact her sponsor and ask him/her to help her out.
It’s a pity that people shout out on sites like this one before having tried to solve the problem themselves or with their sponsor or with the likesxl support group on facebook or with the twitter group, or or or or.
Just do as asked and the problem is solved. Proof of id is asked once. A picture of an id has to be presented and then it’s saved and never asked again. Again all to prevent fraud, again just to make it safe.
So don’t be reluctant, it’s just to make sure everything is legal and safe.
If you invested 500 you bought 10 packs right?
When you click your 10 ads per 24 hours you will receive about 5 euro a day back by payments on your account every 30 minutes, right?
So the only thing you have to do now is to go on clicking for 125 days and then you can withdraw 600, because for every pack of 50 euros you buy you get 60 euros back. But then again, you have to give proof of id !!!! Did you do that already in your profile? If you did you would not have any problem getting your money out.
By keeping making complains here, like a whole bunch of other people do here, you should first get your facts straight.
Maybe you had a lousy sponsor who did not explain you what you need to know, maybe you did not make your own homework to know what to do? While there is tons of information to be found.
I’m in since the start and i am nobody special or from the top and i can tell you that it just works!!! Whatever these negative stories above tell you, it just works!!!! And that’s the end of that.
I’m just going to let that irony sit there for a bit.
So long as you get paid, fuck who you’re stealing from right?
N. Roegiest lol are you serious? this is a ponzi, but hey as long as you are getting money, and other people get scammed it’s no big deal right?..
look at the moneymakergroup forum about likesxl, I have posted multiple replies with proof they are scamming everybody..
EVERY Ponzi victim says that… right up to the day the scheme collapsed. Then it’s “why didn’t see this coming” or “f*** the government! They killed my dreams!”
Which one are you, Roegiest?
I heard that they have a lot of problems with the withdravals.
They also changing their card supplier to a small eastern european prepaid card company, which only makes prepaid cards ( this is the mastercard connection, haha:)).
Hi , I spend €5000 on Likes LX, when I ask my friends to join them say that, with those kind of compagnies. You don’t get your money back.
Then I try to make a transfert today. And the message I got is : our account is being inspected du to fraud at the moment, We can’t pay you. We apologie.
Hi Guys,
I have been observing this website for a week now. Thanks to those who post here with positive or negatives.
I was invited for the meeting and introduced to Likes 2 weeks ago. I was excited first but similar opportunities in the past taught me a lesson, thus I`m very careful now.
I decided to keep on hold and not to join.There was no push during and after the meeting. Presentation was perfect, but my research showed that something is not right. I`m now observer.
I also heard about withdraw problems, but at the meeting I was showed inside LikesXL admin area and saw €15,000 accumulated during period October – April.
Initial investment €480. I also saw how much they withdrew and status was: “Transferred”. Well, the couple who invited me invested over €1000 and want to add more. I feel sorry for them, because greed may end up sad.
@John I`m not English native speaker and you neither I guess. I understand that you have a problem with withdraw too.
Sorry, but you can only blame yourself for your own decision. Please keep us informed when you get your money back. I do wish you to receive it.
Hi John, could you send a screenshot of your message? (without revealing your personal info offcourse) maybe through imgur.com
I hope you will get your money back, and hope that potential investors like tatsu find this website first.
Good thing you did some research first Tatsu, I still think it’s kind of quiet on the internet if a lot of people aren’t getting payed I would expect more activity on twitter and forums like moneymakergroup..
Did you make any progress Christine?
Hi John again here , unfortunatly there is no progress at all on the LikesXL business. Until now I still can’nt withdraw any money, I send two messages to the support and until now, no answer.
They don’t even have an auto respondeur to notifie you that they got your message they are very onprofessional.
I still got to wait for next week. In cas LikesXL is a scam, can any body advise me how to make a claim and bring them to the justice?
I went into this business bcs they say that the 500 bigest companies In the world have pay to adventiste on there plate-forme.
Why should they lying? That is now the question I don’t understand, I do invest more than €5000, thanks for any help .
Because if they do they get people like you investing over 5000 EUR and wondering where your money went.
How else could they get people to send them money, except by lying ???
Likesxl members are receiving this E-mail:
I hope you can see this is all smoke and mirrors, don’t invest any more into likesxl, and try to get your money back somehow..
Did you signup by yourself, or do you have a coach? (I dont know the exact name, but if someone referred you with their code, he is the one you should be talking to)
This is the biggest lie in the email…
And that is the second.
All LikesXL does is use newly invested funds to pay off existing investors. There are no “mathematical calculations”.
And even if there were what, the knuckleheads running the company can’t explain how it works? What a load of crap!
Yes, I’m sorry people invested in this but to be honest, the only thing they have delivered every time is a bunch of crap with claims that have no basis.
First it was Ersnt & Young who verified the legitimacy, until I contacted Ernst & Young, then they remove the complete statement (but I have screenshots don’t worry) then it was a “big trustworthy company from Switzerland” whatever that means..
I expect they won’t last another 6 months, but I think the people investing in the Bitcoin version will definitely lose their money, since it won’t be traceable by authorities, and no one can freeze their Bitcoin account (unlike the regular banking world)
lol. they didn’t see that one didn’t work for the achieve scam?
i cant withdraw my money…. this is definetely a scam.
I got a message saying their fraud investigation is already in the final stages andd they will contact me when they have an exact date.
So it begins. Facebook pages are in panic mode deleting questions asking why they cannot withdraw.
Two months without payments and the goal posts continue to move. For those who joined Likesxl and are reading this, you have had no information directly from Peter Kolar or posted on the Likesxl website.
Every single pathetic simple minded fantasy update has arrived through one source. A fan site mylikesxl.info – Registrant Name: Daniel Remijn. They mislead through using “The LikesXL Marketing Team”.
They are regular people and not employees. You have nothing.
– Document all updates released following meetings that Peter Kolar and Roland Stagnet attended and made specific claims. Such things will be removed along with any references made to the mysterious 45k insurance.
– Demand the release of reports referenced in the recent weeks that they say have been produced by legal experts, attorneys, accountants, Ernst & Young, government investigators.
– Demand and obtain a statement from Peter Kolar and the trustee on the situation.
Hi , is John here again. This LikesXL are not honest.
Two weeks ago they say that withdrawal was possible. I request payment , they wrote to me saying that my informations are incorrect, so they ask for the copy of my bank card, I send to them, the second week now I request again, and they ask me again the copy of my bank card.
Mean whiles, I got a message from them that they got the copy of my bank card. Now, it’s next week again that I can request payment again. I’m very dissapointed.
Now they are saying that we cannot make withdrawal until 20th of august!! They are using so many lies in order not to pay money back. Let’s wait and see.
Hello Yuna and John,
This is not my experience. LikesXL is paying out and withdrawals are handled swiftly.
Hi Eric, are you trying large withdrawals?
Hi Eric,
A mail appeared on our account on august, 9th, informing us, that we should wait until august 20th before retrieving money from our account and that we should order a europacard in order to make transfer.
All of my friends received it, how is it that you didn’t receive this information as it was sent to all Likes XL members?
Yes Fmas, both small and large withdrawals. And always smooth handling, never had any problem.
And Yuna, please check the news in your LikesXL dashboard. That is the official news.
There is no information to wait before retrieving money. You can withdraw anytime.
Netradez here… I have been in and around network / online marketing since 2005, my first company was GDI, I have mixed it up in just about every online scheme ponzi pyramid you can think of just to try and make some extra cash!
I have been in Revenus Share, Gifting, 1UP, 2UP FORCED MATRIX , SPILLOVER MATRIX, Instant downline, downunder whatever!… I also know of members who have been in LikesXL for sometime now.. .they have requested withdrawals but no response.
This reminds me of JBP and JSS Tripler which at the time was a great program,same concept but NO WITHDRAWALS the only people that made anything got out and moved to the next one… with JBP AND JSS Tripler the sustainability of the business model could not handle the weight of the membership withdrawals on a daily basis, which I feel is going on with LIKESXL…
In a perfect world the sustainability of the revshare model is the answer to all human finance issues..right?… but in real life it just does not happen.
All too often we are blinded by the visuals of what people are showing us online and in videos and how they have helped their families and the huge amounts of cash they have made in these programs and we continue to follow into the same programs and financial traps of self willing because of the false promises, which 95% of us can’t afford, but hey.. we buy into it…
why? Because it is self help we want and it is financial discovery we need for our future generations.
Cliche’
My basic rule now is “If you are not in at the start, you have no chance, because’ its too good to be true”.
Anyway thats my piece and I do actually still gamble in network / online marketing and the rest, because its human nature…
Serial Ponzi promoter Jack Petith broke the exiting news on his FaceBook page today:
facebook.com/jack.petith
SD
Whatapps Jack Petith didn’t say Is the membership fere Is higher. we have to click more advertisement, each click Is at 0,16 of so instead of 0,40 at the beginning.
We have to order eurocard of cash Card in order to Retrieve money. We lost a lot of money during the change of the website as we d’été not able to click.
No way, Îm not trusting Likes XL anymore. unfortunately, i have put my money in it and i have to see how can i take my money back!
Doede Khan AKA Danny Turner is promoting this now.
Of course there have been people who’s been able to retrieve money from their Likes XL account, but that was those who got in , in the beginning.
I can’t understand that there are still people to defend them! It is as if they don’t want to face the truth.
The Likes XL team change the rules all the times. Members have to click more advertisement than in the beginning, What’s about, you can take money out only if you reach 150 packs. Is this normal and fair. Members can’t retrieve money from gained comission?
See what’s available as money that you can removed, it’s just peanuts!!!!! Honestly. Netradex, you’re 100 percent right!
I’m looking for people who’s been putting lot’s of money in Likes XL and who wasn’t wise enough to retrieve their money when problem started.
Can we get together in order to put pressure upon the Likes XL team to at least get at least our money back. Here is ma mail address: (removed)
@Yuna
No email adresses please, I have no idea who owns that email address.
What a poor AVI and all the false promises … The ones promoting the business only want the referral commission.
Bad company, many better revenue share companies on the market. Think this is the worst one right now. I do not understand new people start when you get hardly 1cent/day/pack … Takes you 5700 days to get your 57 euro back.
DO NOT invest in this company with many good actors trying to sell the business.
Please, don’t put your money in this company, even if your best friend is begging you to do so. You will never receive your money back. Only the first members got their share, and the others nothing. Make me cry, i trusted a friend of mine, very well known sport elite and i lost all my money in Likes XL!!!!
Likesxl is nothing but a scam, you watch 12-15-20 adds per day day and the ads are all stolen from the net and utube, you have to pay a monthly membership minimum of $29.99.
You must purchase packs to earn. for the last four years you make about one cent per pack. Nobody’s makes money except the owners.
Please don’t join and waste your money and time. It is a big time scam.
Exactly Jason, they want us to buy à membership of and from 29euros Whn we click and récrives peanuts.
So we havé to take our money to pa thèm when we are receiving nothing from Likes XL. I ask my money back and told them they can keep their commissions but since then mo more answers.
Where is the trustee which is suppose to guarantee pu to 45,000 euros? We havé to fight these crooks, i am mot going to let them doping this without fighting for my right, if mot they’ll continue to harm other people.
Please every victims of Likes XL, join me in the fight send them e mails and go after the trustee!!!!
Sad that there are such people in this world but still wish you lots of success, health and prosperity for next year! Thank for the website!!! Happy New Year 2017 to all!!!✨
Yesterday December the 30th, they finally wrote to us in order to explain why we are getting peanuts from our daily clicks. Make me laugh, their explanations!
Just rubbish now listen, open your ears: everything will be back to normal in lest than six months but in the mean time, continue to bring friends, more referrals, more money to them!! And they made profit and want to buy a recycling factory!!!
Hey guys, Likes XL team, haven’t you hear that we want our money back so instead of buying recycling factory, GIVE US OUR MONEY BACK!
You didn’t keep your promises, you lied to people who trust you. Next year, we’ll be on your backs till you give back our money.
To all Likes XL victims keep faith, be strong, just don’t let them go away with our money. More we are stronger we stand! Best wishes for 2017: we get our money back!!
Well, seem that Likes XL have understand that we are not going to let them cons us!
Now they are offering 2 months membership fees! This is normal we can’t pay 29 up to 39 euros when we are not receiving enough money to pay the membership fees!
So friends, don’t give up, we continue our fight! Stronger we stand in 2017!
Looks like the latest reviews are all 1 star, this won’t take too long now.. facebook.com/pg/likesxl/reviews/ (order by newest)
Well, for what i know, The company Settimo have been sold, and this big Likes XL International is just a way for the new owner to make big money on the back of Likes XL Members.
No where do they say that Likes XL have been sold, Now the membership fee start from 2 euros, there will be many pigeons falling in, believing that they will make money, only those recruiting massively will be able to make some money!
Don’t put your money in Likes XL international! You have to convert your money in Bidlikes XL, virtual money, no way to have your real money back! STAY AWAY from this scam!
A ponzi from day one and is still today. Ponzi pimps still promoting this Bullshit.
To Soesman,
Of course they are! Most of the accounts in Likes XL classic will be closed and no money refund!
You have to transfer to Likes XL supercharged, buying more packs but getting nothing in return!
The are just going to rob more people now in under developed countries in Asia and Africa. They are thieves!
First of all I need to say that I’m a member of LikesXL more than one year ago.
I started my membership still in LikesXL classic… and I’m lucky because I know the owner Peter Kolar personally and I’ve met with him many times.
I am grateful that he is not a networker. He has learnt from mistakes and renewed LikesXL this March.
I always got and get my revenue share every day from “LikesXL classic” and from “LikesXL Supercharged” as well! Every Day!
I have a small team in LikesXL. All my teammates are satisfied-because they get what the firm promised! Every day!
AVI and comissions are arriving exactly therefore I can get my income to my Cashcard or by voucher.
I think that business is the most honest. Does not promise too much percents. It is well worth being a member.
Um, considering LikesXL is/was a Ponzi scheme, doesn’t sound like anyone’s learnt anything.
Aha! Most of the members who’s been in that SCAM from the beginning, we Knowles too well how it world. Changing rules all the time and robbing!!! No way to cet your money black.
Beware friends, don’t l listen to tthose whisky quant you to put your money in. Stay away from this scam!
I’d say that’s you’re going to consider that to be “BAD” lucky rather than “GOOD” lucky very soon.
Oz – Yuna – littleroundnam
OMG! 🙂 🙂 🙂 To think something and to experinece something is very different…
What I wrote is my business not Yours. Take care and God bless Guys!
Unless LikesXL developed a unique business and compensation plan for you and you alone, your “experience” is the same as everyone else’s.
As defined by it’s compensation plan, LikesXL is/was a Ponzi scheme. If you made money in it, that makes you a Ponzi scammer.
Take care cupcake.
Yet, here you are rationalizing and justifying it in a public forum, while simultaneously expecting people to accept your comments without question.
Weird.
Hat off! OZ, exactly, unless LikesXL developed a unique business for him, if not, then it is the same and only”LikesXL Ponzi scheme”.
I even discover that there are secrets groups for those who are bringing more goats in the system!!!!
Those who just put their money hoping to get a profit, you’ll have none and when you’ll ask for your money back, you’ll never be able to have it back. Money’s gone!!! Beware!!! Never ever put a single coin in this scam!
Yes “a member” , that’s why there are some many 1 star reviews, because everyone is getting what they are promised..
facebook.com/pg/likesxl/reviews/
A new scam launched today and is being pimped by a mjor lowlife scammer, cashmachine34 (on the MMG forum). This new scam is called Coinxl.com
I wonder if it has any connection to the LikesXL scam…..
Be aware Of ThIS FRAUD AND LIKESXL Scam ,UNLESS YOU WANT TO LOSE YOUR HARD EARNING MONEY.
The have got me into their program since Feb 2016 and promised that each 50 euro will turn to 60 during the 3-4 months the only thing to do is watching 10 ads a day. since then they change rules MANY TIMES (if you dot say yes, you can not even see your page or do anything).
when i complaind about their AVI they said almost 9 months ago that it will get better be patient, ( so i did and i did).
until recently when i complained last week i had different answer>> straight forward saying we are advertising company and you will not get your money back and you signed up that you agree with rule changing at anytimes.
basically it is what it is nothing will change or get better, i dont make 0.1 or Euro a month they want to charge 3 euro a month too ,and I am still watching the ads every single day from 10-15 hoping one day i can get at least my money back with the AVI ratio and reduced 60 euro to 57 now.
it may take 25 years to get only my money with this ratio if it stay this way even by then i am dead or paid more on fees , which ofcourse you understand where i am going with this, they will change rules again, I AM TELLING YOU TRUTHFULLY DO NOT (DO NOT) GET INTO THIS FRAUD AND SCAM AND LOSE YOUR HARD WORKING MONEY.
LIKESXL IS A BIG SCAM AND THEY WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY.
Yes LikesXL is a big Scam, And now they start their same big bla bla in Asia. I couldn’t believe my eyes, seeing Peter Kollar holding, indian children in his arm promising nonsense while in final, the pocket money of many indian will be lighter if not completely empty by this scam!
Good news friends, there is an office in the name of Wealth Recovery International in New York and anybody can try to cover their money, it is free and i think they took a percentage on what you recover.
WATCH OUT NOW….THIS SCAM WILL BE LOOKING TO REEL IN SOME NEW SUCKERS NOW.
I just received an email from a major pimping scammer, Tyron Indalsingh…here is an excerpt from his email:
Gawwwwd. Is there anyone left in the MLM underbelly not trying to scam people with an altcoin?
Muahahahaha. Those two terms are contradictory.
A cryptocurrency “opportunity” is an INVESTMENT (unless you go OneCoin doublespeak by selling “education”). A legitimate cryptocurrency opportunity has no “revenue” to speak of. You can’t marry the two.
Maybe update on their new coin x12coin and they say you can trade it on the exchange cointed.com. The price is already x5 …. Think a way to get new money and scam even more people.
I don’t believe them, i think that what they want is just to rob money. Still don’t want to give back the money, they robbed to people they scammed.
i also became a likesxl member without knowing something about likesxl.
it makes money and it gives money back. but the thing is you get less than you invest. you need to invest continue to get more money.
if you all guys above think its a fake why its still running? and what about (Ozedit: offtopic derail attempts removed)
That’s typically how a Ponzi scheme works for most investors.
Nobody said anything about “fake”. A Ponzi scheme runs for as long as gullible investors like yourself sign up and invest.
@REN
You know why this shit Likes Xl is still running? It is still running because they sealed the money of the first investors who started to be members in october 2016.
They had problems in december 2016/2017 when members start to understand that they are being coned, nobody who asked for their capital invested, received anything.
Likes XL answer that the money was invested in advertising so no way to get the money back, some month ago the Likes XL had been sold to another company, and they make big publicity in Asia.
Please note that Asia is full of poor people looking for some ways to have some more money: These people are putting their small economy in Likes XL reason why you can see the money growing in the virtual member account!!
But the money you see is virtual, so grab it as quickly as you can because if in any way, they have problem then the virtual money just fade out like dust.
Just make a test dear, try to retrieve part of your capital and you will certainly know if you are dealing with a Ponzi Scheme or not!!!!
Who needs to test a ponzi scheme?
It was proven to be one long before anyone would need to invest in it!
To Terence B
Agree with you, 100 percent, I can’t understand that there are still people trying to defend such company like Likes XL. Ihope that nobody will never invest a penny in this company.It is a scam.
When Peter Kolar has no money, he’s still inventing a new package.
After the BP package, BidsPackage followed, now money for Discount Packages, and wants to pay its members in the X12 coin, which has no value.
I understand that this sort of marketing in general is not everyone’s cup of tea. However, it is not the same as the X12 coin.
Actually you can trade X12 on two independent exchanges.
@Max
The days external trading of an altcoin was proof of legitimacy are long-gone. Dodgy exchanges are plentiful and launching an altcoin takes all of five minutes.
@yuna
Did you get your money back yet from likesxl, I am also on the same boat as you, they stole money and now say the only withdrawal is x-12 coin which is worthless.
Everyone needs their money back via bank wire transfer. So wanted to know your situation to date with likesxl.
