Forcount is started right after Cointherum, a Ponzi Scheme started by Francis Silvia. Francis Silvia is seen marketing Forcount as well which makes these two companies connected and Forcount, a risky choice for investment.

Forcount’s website has no details of the owners of the company. The domain (forcount.com) that was registered on 7th July 2017 has been done privately, leaving no scope to find the name of the owner of the domain.

However, Francis Silva has been seen marketing Forcount affiliate program who the owner of Cointherum. It is believed that the Francis started Forcount after Cointherum collapsed as per ponzi scheme fate.

This strongly indicates that Francis Silvia is the mind behind both these companies. This makes Forcount even more susceptible to meet the similar fate as Cointherum.

The company has no products are services that can be retailed apart from the affiliate program that it offers. To join the affiliate program, one must invest at least 0.1 ETH or LTC. For joining the MLM program, the minimum investment is tied to 0.25 ETH or LTC.

There is a monthly fee attached to the investments as $25 and $50 depending on the investment made.

As I have always stated, if a company is not transparent, it cannot be trusted with our hard-earned money. So, I consider Forcount as a risky investment.

Forcount – The Compensation Plan

The affiliates are paid daily ROI ranging from 0.01% to 3% for an investment of 0.1 ETH or LTC or more. Apart from this, a referral commission of 5% is paid to those who invest 0.25 ETH or LTC. This referral commission increases to 10% if the investment is 20 ETH or LTC or more.

Forcount – The Residual Commission

Forcount uses binary compensation structure to pay residual commission to its affiliates. In a binary structure, an affiliate is placed on the top and the subsequent affiliates are placed on right and left side of the top affiliate, making a total of 2 affiliates on the level 1. Similarly, each affiliate on level 1 has two more affiliates as right and left side. So, there is a total of 4 affiliates on level 2 and so on.

At the end of each day, the volumes on both sides are taken into account and the weaker side is considered for the residual commission. The percentage of funds invested by the new affiliates on the weaker side is used to pay the commission to the affiliate. The commission depends on the invested value of the affiliate.

Forcount – Reviews from around the world

Jake: Nothing new. Waste of time and money.

Ruden: Another ponzi scam surfacing. If you are wise enough, you won’t invest in this coin.

The conclusion from the above Reviews

As you can see, people are aware of the way this platform is growing. It is no different from many other Ponzi schemes claiming to be a prominent and future paying investment.

The Verdict

The company first started with Ethereum investment and as the investment was drying, the company added Litecoin to continue its processes.

Forcount claims to be involved in cryptocurrency trading for generating ROI. However, there is no evidence to prove that claim.

The funds invested by new affiliates are used to pay the existing affiliates. This makes this entire program, a Ponzi Scheme.

As soon as the new recruitment would die, the ROI will stop as well. The admins will run away leaving the majority of affiliates in the loss. Hence, it would be wiser to stay away from Forcount.

    Forcount is a scam I must confess, I joined thinking I will be able to sell my cryto when it appreciates. Is there any contract that has no expiry date? The company has no clear terms and conditions for you to know the risk you are getting into, you will just wake up one morning and unable to withdraw and if you are able to withdraw the so called earnings it can take over a month before it transferred to your specified wallet. The worst happening now is that we can no longer withdraw the earning in Litecoin but in MINDEXCOIN, at the end your litecoin depreciates and send to the mindexwallet, who can change that for any other crypto or cash? You now see that your cash is forever traped with forcount, a contract that never ends and no profit.

    A year later the so called scam is still paying and doing well by the day, documentation always beat conversation. The past does not equal the future. I don’t know any business that did not fail at first in the past, do you. It does not mean that they are a scam

    To start off, you have the rank achievement bonus wrong because it starts at $400 for sapphire and so forth. Secondly, the fee is only if the person decides to refer this to other people and become their sponser, not for people who only decide to stay as investors, AND if you become the sponser of two people that buy at least two coins, each month, you do not pay the fee. The company has also added the coin DASH, MINDEX, and the very well known BITCOIN. There are already ATM’s and a visa card coming out. I know because I’m doing the business and the results have been amazing.
