<\/figure>\n\n\n\nOverview<\/h2>\n\n\n\nWhat Income Team X Claims<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The current sales page opens with “IMMEDIATE PAYMENT – PENDING” in giant letters. It announces a new team connection, puts you third in line and shows a $417.22 daily deposit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A countdown warns that your spot goes to the next person watching. Entry costs $37, described as a one-time payment with a 60-day money-back guarantee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What You Actually Buy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Behind the hype is a basic affiliate marketing course. Its own product page lists four training modules, 10 prebuilt affiliate pages, a members area and a library of bonus ebooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You are not joining a payroll. Any money would come from commissions on other companies’ products, after an affiliate network approves you and you find your own traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The bonus library is a set of general ebooks, with titles such as Serious Side-Hustle and Affiliate Marketing Mastery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is Income Team X Legit?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
No. The course exists, but the way it is sold depends on claims that are false on their face:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- A payment is described as pending when nothing is owed to you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- The sales video’s start screen imitates a Cloudflare security check that is really part of the video thumbnail.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- An exit pop-up claims a $97 regular price and a free $497 bonus pack.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Buyers on one checkout route are offered one-click upgrades of $497 and $197 right after paying.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- The support page tells buyers not to contact their bank, claiming they would lose a dispute.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Income Team X Reviews and Complaints<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Real customer feedback is thin and negative. The Trustpilot profile for incometeamx.com<\/a> holds a 2.6 TrustScore from four reviews, and every one gives a single star.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Those reviews date from February to July 2026. Buyers call it a scam, say they paid for nothing and complain of no support and a product unlike the advertising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trustpilot also shows a notice that the company may be associated with high-risk investments. The Better Business Bureau has no business profile for Income Team X at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"Trustpilot](\"https:\/\/malwaretips.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/income-team-x-refresh-income-team-x-trustpilot.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nMany pages that turn up for Income Team X reviews in 2026 are something else. They are glowing write-ups posted on Google Sites, Experiment.com project drafts and FeedBear feedback boards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Their buttons pass through redirect pages to the ClickBank sales page with an affiliate hop ID attached. Whoever wrote the review earns a commission if you buy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The funnel’s own exit pop-up adds a five-star badge claiming 1,114 verified reviews and a Best of 2024 vote. The page names no source for either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How the Income Team X Scam Works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: A Personal Success Story Appears in Your Feed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
From December 2025 to February 2026, Meta ads from pages named Sarah Hooper, Francesca Smith, Jessica Harper and Anna Schneider sent viewers to the Income Team X invitation page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"Meta](\"https:\/\/malwaretips.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/income-team-x-refresh-facebook-ads-faces-blurred.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe stories rotate. A Costco or Walmart cashier supervisor resigns, a DoorDash driver or trucker quits, or a stranger on a plane made $260,000 last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One version claims $1,770 in the first week and more than $2,460 in the second. None of these ads explains what the system actually does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meta removed some of these ads for breaking its advertising standards. Others ran from accounts or pages that Meta later disabled, according to its Ad Library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: The Page Says Your Payment Is Already Waiting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The invitation page treats you like someone collecting money, not buying a course. An Instagram-styled version shows a $437.32 daily deposit and 1,700 live viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nothing is owed to you. The deposit figure is a graphic on a sales page, and the only payment involved is the $37 you are being asked to make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even the video’s start screen is staged. It shows a Cloudflare human-verification box with a reCAPTCHA checkbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The whole box is the video’s thumbnail image, so clicking the checkbox simply starts the sales pitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Timers, Fake Comments and a Fake Discount Push the $37<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A security timer, about 30 minutes on one page and 42 on another, warns that your spot will be forfeited to the next viewer. Reloading starts the countdown over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Instagram-styled page adds comments from Tanya Brooks, Marcus Ellison and Crystal Vaughn. They are written into the page code with fixed timestamps of seconds ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A small pop-up announces that Robert from United States just activated their Income Team X earnings. Try to leave, and an exit offer appears instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"Income](\"https:\/\/malwaretips.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/income-team-x-refresh-income-team-x-exit-offer.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nIt shows the same $37 price beside a struck-through $97 regular price, plus a $497 bonus pack of side-hustle ebooks thrown in for free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
None of the sales pages asks for $97. The discount exists only to make $37 feel like a bargain you will lose by closing the tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 4: One-Click Upsells Follow the Purchase<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
On the BuyGoods route, the page after payment is the Platinum Fast Track upgrade. It charges $497 in one click and promises up to 1,000 buyer clicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It claims only 7 of 25 upgrades remain as of today, a date the script reads from your device. A sister product, 3 Step Payday, repeats the same line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A second upgrade, Elite Member, costs $197 and is labeled optional upgrade 2 of 3. Taking both brings the bill to $731, with a third upgrade still to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"Income](\"https:\/\/malwaretips.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/income-team-x-refresh-income-team-x-elite-upsell-197.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nBoth upgrades are billed as one-time charges. The risk is speed: a single click charges the card you just used, with no new checkout form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 5: The Course Teaches You to Run the Same Kind of Funnel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
According to its product page, the training covers prebuilt affiliate pages, getting approved to promote offers and exit traffic, which redirects visitors who leave your page to commission links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An earlier support page said member earnings were paid through ClickBank and gave tips for getting a ClickBank affiliate account approved. The system is affiliate marketing of other offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is a real business, but it takes paid traffic, testing and months of work. It cannot produce a deposit waiting for you on the day you join.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What the FTC Rules Say About Pitches Like Income Team X<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
No FTC case or notice names Income Team X. The agency’s rules and guidance still show what an honest money-making offer owes you before you pay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Business Opportunity Rule<\/a> covers sellers who promise outlets, accounts or customers, including online ones. They must provide a one-page disclosure document at least seven days before payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Income Team X’s upgrade promises up to 1,000 buyer clicks. Its checkout takes payment on the spot, and no disclosure document appears anywhere in the funnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In January 2025, the FTC proposed extending that rule<\/a> to money-making opportunities such as business coaching, with written proof required for earnings claims. No final rule has been published.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The FTC’s consumer advice<\/a> is simpler. Ask for the disclosure document and any earnings claim statement, and walk away if the pitch contradicts the seller’s own paperwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Income Team X contradicts itself. The sales page shows a $417.22 daily deposit, while its earnings disclaimer says there is no guarantee you will make any income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seller, Retailers and Refund Route<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Seller Gives a Name but No Address<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The main terms clause leaves the company name blank, calling the website the property of an empty placeholder. Disputes go to arbitration in a place written as Company, California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Exceleron Marketing is named in the refund, anti-spam and FTC compliance policies, and the ClickBank vendor account is exceleron1. None of those pages gives an address or registration number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Three Retailers Take the Same $37<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The same product sells through ClickBank on cb.myincometeamx.com, BuyGoods on bg.myincometeamx.com and Explodely on the main www address of that domain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each page prints the retailer’s address: Boise, Idaho for ClickBank, Wilmington, Delaware for BuyGoods and Orlando, Florida for Explodely. Those belong to the retailers, not to the seller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The BuyGoods footer even carries the platform’s supplement disclaimer about the Food and Drug Administration, which has nothing to do with an income course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Support Discourages You From Calling Your Bank<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The support portal says customer service works weekdays from 8am to 8pm Eastern, through a ticket desk. Refund requests are sent to the retailer instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"Income](\"https:\/\/malwaretips.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/income-team-x-refresh-income-team-x-support-refund-warning.png\" "\\"\\"")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nIts refund instructions tell buyers not to contact their bank, warning that a dispute would only delay the refund and that they would lose it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That outcome is not the seller’s call. Your card issuer decides disputes, and you can ask the retailer for a refund and still dispute the charge with your bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Members Area Uses One Password for Everyone<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The old incometeamx.com address now opens only a members login for Income Team X 2.0. Buyers sign in with their purchase email and a default password printed right there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyone who knows a buyer’s email can try that same password, so anything you save in the members area could be seen by a stranger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Income Team X Domains, Name Changes and Sister Funnels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The original incometeamx.com domain was registered in July 2022, and myincometeamx.com followed in July 2025. The newer domain now carries every live sales funnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The numbers have shifted. A 2024 page promised commissions of $989 to $1,797 a day, and a 2025 page introduced the $417.22 daily deposit that still runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Paid social traffic is not new either. An archived July 2025 invitation link carries Facebook ad tracking tags, months before the ads now visible in Meta’s library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 2024 page also features Brad Wilksford, a single dad who says he built a 50-person team and needs only 45 more partners before stepping back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Instagram-styled page also carries a BuyGoods checkout link into 3 Step Payday, a separate product whose upgrade page copies Income Team X almost word for word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That page is signed by a different presenter, Cole Marner. Shared sales copy shows a shared template, not who owns either product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Brad Wilksford name also appears in our report on the 7 Minute WiFi Blueprint phone trick<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similar phone-trick funnels we have covered include the 3-Step Wi-Fi Trick<\/a>, Cash Loophole<\/a> and the Digital ATM System<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What to Do If You Paid for Income Team X<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The 60-day refund window is your best tool, so act quickly and keep every email and receipt:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Save the evidence.<\/strong> Screenshot the payment-pending page, the timer and every receipt, because the funnels move between domains and pages change.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Find the retailer on your statement.<\/strong> A ClickBank purchase appears as CLKBANK*IncomeTeamX. BuyGoods and Explodely orders name those companies in your receipt email.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Request a refund from that retailer.<\/strong> Use ClickBank’s support site<\/a>, BuyGoods at support@buygoods.com or Explodely’s help desk. List every charge, including each upgrade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Dispute the charge if the refund stalls.<\/strong> Ignore the support page’s warning. Give your card issuer the order emails, the sales page claims and your refund request.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Look for one-click charges.<\/strong> Check for $497 and $197 upgrade charges you did not mean to approve, and treat later fire sale emails with the same caution.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Treat the members area as public.<\/strong> Because the login relies on one shared password, keep personal and payment details out of it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Expect new invitations.<\/strong> The funnel already cross-sells 3 Step Payday. Treat any daily-deposit pitch under a new name the same way.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Report the ads and the seller.<\/strong> Use the menu on a Facebook or Instagram ad to report it, and file a report with the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Ignore recovery offers.<\/strong> Anyone promising to recover your money or unlock your daily deposits for a fee is running a second scam.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Is Income Team X a scam?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
As it is sold, yes. The deception sits in the marketing rather than in whether a course arrives, which is why a refund request is your strongest move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Are the Income Team X reviews online real?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Treat any review with an official site button as an advertisement, because it pays its writer a commission. Reviews from actual buyers are scarce and uniformly negative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is Income Team X the same as Income Team?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
If you saw Income Team on a daily-deposit page, yes. The logo spells INCOMETEAM with a large X through it, and the pages also shorten the name to ITX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Who is Brad Wilksford?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
He is the presenter named on the older sales page and the $497 upgrade. Nothing on those pages ties the name to a real company, address or public profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Does Income Team X charge every month?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
No subscription appears in the checkout. Each charge is labeled one-time with no rebilling. The money adds up through instant upgrades, not monthly renewals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why does incometeamx.com only show a login page?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The sales funnels moved to myincometeamx.com. Old sales and policy links on the original domain now point to the members area meant for paying buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Do not buy Income Team X. The $37 buys a basic affiliate course sold with a fake pending payment, a staged live audience and at least $694 in upgrades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you already paid, ask the retailer on your statement for a refund of every charge within 60 days, and take it to your card issuer if the refund stalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Real side income starts with a named company and terms that explain how you get paid. Until money reaches your bank, a number on a sales page is not income.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
