We have compiled a huge list of Paypal takedowns against File Locker, Image Hosting and Piracy support sites that can be announced. Effective 16th August 2012. Of particular note is the appearance of video streaming and music sharing sites on this list.
We believe the following sites have had their relationships terminated by Paypal. With Paypal terminations it’s common practice for funds to be frozen for 180 days, no withdrawals or transfers of funds allowed.
The following sites lost Paypal payment processing between 2nd August and 16th August 2012.

We believe that all these sites have been terminated by Paypal in the last week. We do not believe any of them may process through Paypal again, however Paypal always deals with these matters on a case by case basis.
NOTES Copy Control does not claim responsibility for these or any other Paypal terminations. Many organisations work to deal with infringing sites. Some of these sites may have been reported earlier then re-reported as they continued to process with Paypal. This information is current at the time of publication and is subject to change.
{ 73 comments… read them below or add one }
it seems that you don’t have a work
so now that none of the hoster use paypal anymore what shall you do?
You do understand that both Visa and Mastercard will be acting on 3rd party processing companies processing for file lockers ? Or did you think that Visa and Mastercard would give copyright infringing hosts a free pass ?
no one cares about Paypal anymore..every working host has moved on to something bettter..more payment processors are coming up to provide support to Cyberlockers as its a Legit Business Model.
The 3rd party payment processors who process payments for file lockers will soon need to answer to Visa and Mastercard and will eventually be forced to stop.
Boo Hoo…go whine and tell your lies somewhere else. We all know what kind of crap you are pulling here. You have not even touched RAPIDSHARE, NETLOAD, and DEPOSITFILES. Visa and Mastercard are not the only companies…if you think 3rd party payment processors will have to answer to them then clearly you are extremely delusional. You can get them to answer them in USA or in Aussie…but what about other countries and the European Union? EU won’t stand up for this bullsh*t and neither the 3rd world countries i am familiar with.
Your political reach isn’t that much when compared to mine in my country haha (don’t even think for a sec that i will get too excited and reveal you more details).
If you can play dirty to save your porn business (nothing artistic about it)….even we have folks in high places in some countries.
If you believe Visa and MasterCard will allow their brands to be tarnished by being associated with file lockers full of pirate and illegal content then we suggest you watch this space closely.
if you believe porn sites won’t have any processors then you are mistaken. If sites like brazzers, reality king,naughty america can have payment processors, then clearly file lockers who are legit business models can also use them.
You have not taken down paypal payment processors via coyright thing…you are using paypal’s policy about porn crap. We can clearly see that most of your images/proof are about porno being uploaded on file lockers.
Its up to Visa/Mastercard to just do payment processing in 2 corrupt countries (USA and Aussie) or they want entire EU/Asia (that have most of the population of the world).
And please, if you are resolute about stopping payments to these sites…then your next target should be Netload, Rapidshare and Depositfiles. First stop these 3 and then go after small fries.
We all know you can’t do shit to Netload as its in Germany and they can defend themselves very well there.
You can’t do anything to Rapidshare as they are also lobbying.
You can try to get Depositfiles down but you need don’t have enough proof that they are not doing enough work. They have records of how many abuses they remove everyday.
Now stop all these 3 sites first and then tell us about other startup companies.
This!
a lot of hosters, of course, but a lot of people never heard of them and these are such small OCH… piracy scene is laughing at your efforts and is still uploading to several big hosters and sharing porn, films, games, music, programs etc.
i guess your site is nothing more than a running gag…
I quit paypal 1 month ago, I still receive money.
The biggest PayPal takedown list ever!
Finally 4Shared, ShareCash, and some of the file lockers that have articles here had PayPal pulled its plug from these sites! KUDOS PAYPAL AND COPY CONTROL!
bitshare.com freakshare.com laughing your site everyday. HAHAHAHA………
You forgot to takedown these 2 big f*cker site?
Their illegal files everywhere. I bet you can’t do nothing.
I take my hat off to you.
Since losing paypal we have been adding an extra 900 Euro a day to our sales. Keep up the good work!
Please remove PayPal from premiumize.me and rehost.to. They are very big in Germany.
This movement is slow and persistent, but it’s actually working, this has been very exciting to watch unfold.
You need a hobby bro.
^And people like you need to learn to create products rather than steal. I’m guessing your comment implies you lack a capacity to do so, sorry to hear that. Nonetheless this campaign will march on and make illegal filesharing a risky and burdensome venture.
“Nonetheless this campaign will march on and make illegal filesharing a risky and burdensome venture.”
Are you saying that removing payment options for the worlds smallest file hosting websites makes file sharing risky? Are you 12 years old? There is absolutely no logic in what you just said.
crocko.com
I notice that they use paypal for only small transactions as they anticipate that they will get frozen again and want to convert people initially.
For larger payments they look for a processor that has less care for their brand.
I see PayPal in that site above…
And also Editor, you may take a look at non-English, foreign file lockers. They are supposed to have illegal content.
Still also what about anonfiles? Do they have PayPal account? Is that file locker on Stop File Lockers list of PayPal takedowns?
“And also Editor, you may take a look at non-English, foreign file lockers. They are supposed to have illegal content.”
So we’re just guessing now? Has it really come to this?
This site use google checkout & amazon (only is possible view the options logged):
ugoupload.net
Dear Admin,
What about HOTFILE, FREAKSHARE, NET LOAD?
Any answer to these BIGGEST file lockers??
WHY THEY STILL CAN USE PAYPAL????
Because they are legal businesses, dumbo.
Actually Hotfile is not. They are in court right now and they are clearly gonna lose.
Dear Admin,
FREAKSHARE Paypal use very long times…
How long are they?
World’s biggest site is Rapidshare please remove paypal from them, I know they are b*tches f*ckers they love the money.
f*ck you rapidshare f*ck you!
I don’t like working 10 hours a day, but that’s what I have to do to survive. You don’t like having your stuff shared… Well, that emotion isn’t going to change anything, so why don’t you lighten up and find something better to do? You only live once. Are you going to spend your life in anger over something you cannot change?
Rapidshare will never lose their paypal, and we both know this.
You can’t report big files host, it’s true.
With no pp, many hosting wil closed service soon
Sh*t
I use ony filehost to share free scripts (private hosting, no Aff, post ony free php script, php modules, code) but he report and i lost my pp.
Crazy ….
There are plenty of legitimate filesharing websites, for those of you not involved in copyright infringement and illegal pornography. they are still up and running.
two examples. http://www.yousendit.com and http://www.dropbox.com.
That`s Bullsh*t,
I’ve seen more Copyright Infringments on Dropbox, Youtube, Myvideo, Vimeo, and so on, than you ever can think off, but they all have enough money to get the best team of lawyers and so they get there rights, becaause you can’t be blamed for infringments made by third party. Thats your right from DMCA and most other Acts in allmost all countries. Stop blaming filehosters and go to the source of the problem. The industrie doesn’t understand the need of changing selling strategies. if they behave like in the 80′s, they shouldn’t wonder to get overtaken by the digital evolution – so far for my oppinion and i know, what i speak of: i give my own content a CC License and earn my living by the Ads on my site. That is how you make it!
Sido, don’t cry, baby, at the future will be only worse.
Yeah, exists filehostings, that sent AK to the ass, and still have own Paypal
NetLoad f*ck off Copy Control, so illed AK searching for new targets (like small filehostings).
CopyControl never stops filehostings industry, because if they will do it, coming time of free porn tubes, where all content will be shared for free & for all.
Bye-bye, loosers =)
netload.in
This recipient is currently unable to receive money.
We checked this and found Netload had removed the Paypal payment option, however it appears the Paypal payment option is back on the site.
The Trichordist is quietly going after the Brands that are advertising on these sites. And that is also working. Filelockers are for-profit businesses often with ties to organized crime. Fuck em. let them go down.
Yo, Don Quijote! Instead of trying to remove PayPal from each and every site, how about you just go and shut PayPal itself down? Way more efficient and this company needs to end anyway as they’re delusional and think, for example, that they need to enforce US laws outside the US too.
Also you should go and illegalize empty CDs, DVDs, BluRays, HDDs, flash drives (hell, just about any storage medium) as they are used for OFFLINE(!!!) file sharing.
Even they they are perfectly legal, they could potentially be used for something illegal. So it’s your duty as a fascist to enforce the ban, even with no legal basis.
Yeah, and if you want to be super-efficient: shut down every hardware-manufacturer, because any computer could be potentially used infringe copyright. Then we live like back in the stone-age and you can search for another hobby or protest against big stones, as they could be potentially used to murder someone
Can you stop Rapidshare? It is accepting all types of payments including Paypal..! You can fight with only small companies not with big guys..!
RapidShare is a legal business, which is why PayPal allows it. The rest of your post is completely true.
RapidShare seem quite comfortable, issuing press releases blaming linking sites, meeting with rights holders, trying to maintain the facade of a legitimate service. They’re in for a big shock. Watch this space.
You mean that big, BIG shock when they decide on their own that paypal no longer deserves to process payments for their service? Let me know when that happens. I wouldn’t want it to pass me by.
Yeah, let’s see you getting Rapidshsare Paypal limited, though also expect to get sued back by their lawyers.
RapidShare should sue us, then we can subpoena documents relating to their operations.
They won’t sue us though for that very reason.
The owner of this site in an infinite loop…He will never be able to come out of it. The more he cracks down….more hosts will come out live..
why don’t you get hotfile.com, you think hotfile is legit? they have affiliate program PPS up to 50%.
PPS is a legit business model for none-infringing affiliates. You don’t need to share files to earn money with PPS, so your argument is invalid.
The business model of file lockers profiting from content which does not belong to them or the uploaders of such content is over. It’s just a matter of time.
The monetary system will eventually collapse from exponential growth in the money supply. It’s just a matter of time.
I’m not holding my breath, though.
What’s all the stink about paying for file-locker subscriptions?
I download from file-lockers every day. At least 500 mb per day (not a lot, there isin’t much good stuff any more that I don’t already have after years of downloading). I use the “free” or “slow” option. I can download files as large as 400 – 600 mb (single file) from some lockers using free option. I use jdownloader which automatically refreshes (changes) my IP address so I get around silly file-locker download limits.
Is there a point to what you just said?
I’m very frustrated about this we can´t download anymore as a free user? How many credit cards we need to download on this hosts? 150? For one file?
F### off you all! I hope this hosters going to jail that they deserve it.
Paying for a stupid file and give 30 days of no downloads in that host?
What a joke, Torrent will give a light to this motherF#ckers in this days!
“Editor”: If you are anti- file lockers then you should let those multi sites be, because they are ripping off file lockers and hurting their profits, isn’t this what you want?
also, do you understand the Internet was designed to facilitate file transfers? that is the point of the Internet after all, you seem to have no ability to distinguish between infringement and just file transfers.
Do you really think you will win this? Even if you somehow magically succeed in shutting down every single file locker through threatening PayPal and credit card companies, you won’t win the war (this is of course also completely ignoring the idiotic flaw in your plan that advertising is the largest portion of revenue those companies have).
Let’s pretend every host shuts down tomorrow. Now what? Well, you still have to do something about all the newsbin sites, torrent sites etc. Now what about ed2k and gnutella and similar? What about them? How can you stop this?
So somehow you magically shut down decentralized networks and every torrent site and usenet site on the planet. What about services like dropbox and other cloud services that let friends “pirate” to each other? What will you do about this?
So, once again, magic saves you and you can stop this. Now what do you do about people with personal FTP servers? What do you do about people sharing (whoops I mean “pirating”.. you know attacking ships on the high seas) via email, skype, AIM, yahoo etc?
What is your end game? Have you even thought it through? In the long run your efforts are futile, the Internet is the Internet, get over it and do something worthwhile with you life instead of ripping off poor individuals who think you can be affective, you can’t.
Unless you advocate Chinese-style censorship globally, you can’t do a damn thing about this. Oh wait, I forgot, I am writing a copyright troll, of course you hate freedom.
linksnappy is still using paypal happily
Not any more they’re not.
So, are you gonna target the big debrid sites after all or not? As long as they have Paypal, targeting the actual file hosts is useless, the pirates will simply switch to debrid sites and download even more than they did before because then they’d have access to tens of different filelockers for the same amount of money and they can also pay through Paypal.
OP your attempts are futile, filelockers pop up like pimples on your no doubt old wrinkly w*nker a*se. When a few go down, dozens more appear to take their place! They are exponentially growing in fact, now slowing down at all. By taking down the biggest ones (look at megaupload example), they gave room to 30 other smaller — at the time unknown ones — to take over. And of those roughly 30 new known ones, about 5-10 became popular some almost as popular again as megaupload… some major ones right now which have ALL games, movies, music, and tvshows uploaded on now: netload, rapidshare (tried to be taken down, and failed), rapidgator, ul.to (i think europe only), uploaded.net, bitshare, ruyshare, freakshare, filevelocity (even though its on your list, they are still being uploaded on), ultramegabit…. and then lets not forget the legit and much older sites being lately “raped” by illegal uploads like gamefront, mediafire, zippyshare, glumbofiles, etc.. they cant even keep up with deleting the illegal content (and believe me they are trying), they are no way “evil” money scamming companies like the regular file lockers, they just simply cant keep up with the deletion of everything. I for example download all the legit nazi_zombie_whatever maps which get released for Call of Duty World At War, hundreds of custom mod maps (100% legal) are released for that game so far, and dozens more weekly, which are all uploaded to gamefront, just a 0.0001% small example of how a site like that is legally used, and the piracy being illegally done on it is maybe 5% of it total?
Anyway like I said, your attempts are futile and I hope you realize that, no matter how hard you try to remove these sites from use, even more will come to take their place. Piracy will never end, I dont think that is a possibility until all freedoms and internet rights are removed, and then you might as well remove all real-life rights to the point where people rise up and bludgeon police and military to death and the whole world is in actual chaos with no order. Is that what you want? Then let people do as they want, we have less enough rights are freedoms as it is (and many dont have enough money to barely survive these days, you rich pr*ck (?), let alone to buy the entertainment they want.
The editor here doesn’t do full research before publishing any matter. I wont talk about all matter but for the sites listed here in this post i will definitely say that most of them were not using paypal during your mentioned period 2nd August and 16th August 2012 nor before 2nd August hence no point of being banned by paypal. I am not saying all but most of them were not using paypal for a long time after paypal got strict.
I will give an the editor has listed a site way2premium . Its a funny matter that editor listed this site since this site was not selling rather say they have left this selling long time back and you all say they lost paypal during your mentioned period. I am having a big laugh and can see how much research you do before publishing any matter. Same way there are many sites listed by you all which were actually not using paypal but you just did bother to do a research before publishing and simply copy pasted sites name without even seeing if they were actually using or not or even if they are working.
Stopfilelockers you are creating fun of yourself. I hope you perform a full research next time before publishing any post.
Your work is futile. For each site that goes down, there are 10 new. If they can’t use paypal they will use other system.
Anyway Megaupload will be back soon, and that would be check mate.
You lose ROLF
“Anyway Megaupload will be back soon, and that would be check mate.”
Your assumption is based on Mr Dot-ego not over eating and exploding between now and when he switches on some servers (unless he rightfully goes to jail).
Your mantra is always the same…”big companies = bad” & “I’m sticking it to the man etc etc”
It’s boring drivel because you overlook the fact that Mr Dot-ego via his insider trading antics and political donations is just as corrupt as the ‘man’ you want to stick it to.
The only difference is Dot-ego will give you free stuff.
The saying ‘every man has his price’ rings so true. It’s clear you can be bought for nothing…which kinda makes you a slave IMO
It’s funny because for every site that goes down 10 more come back up.
It’s also funny because you are incredibly old and think you have a chance at stopping file sharing (because you are clueless about this “series of tubes” we call the internet), or you are incredibly young and naive.
Either way its incredibly cute. I have used file lockers maybe 5-10 times in my life and never for copyrighted content, everyone uses other services for that sort of thing.
Good luck to you, this website was good for a chuckle in the morning so I appreciate it
what a waste of time and effort this site is….
i can’t even believe i’ve taken time to write this post, but is was enjoyable laughing at all this. Do you really think you will stop piracy…. no you won’t. It may reduce it, but one thing is for sure, it will just go more underground!! Good Luck copyright soldiers
consider the six degrees of separation. if we (as a one world community) are only set apart by six people, then you are all my friends and/or potential friends. with the advent of the internet i’d suggest that we are even more tightly nit than that. i pose this question to the naysayers of file hosting sites; have you ever borrowed any media of any medium from one of your friends? if so, you a hypocrite. now on the other hand if you’re making copies of said media and are selling it to make a profit, you are stealing and should have to face criminal charges and answer for your crimes. this is how clear and easy this debate is. as an artist, i hope people will spend the money that they can on my media in an effort to support me enough to get though to the next project. being an artist is not a stable profession and will never be. sharing isn’t killing the artist, it’s killing the industry and in turn putting the art back in the artist’s hands.
A lot of what you say I agree with but the problem is that it’s not putting art back into the artist’s hands because most people don’t care where or from whom their warez-fix comes from. They just want it for free.
Of course some people will support the artist and these are enlightened individuals who understand what the internet can do for real independent artists. The bottom line is that it should be the artist’s choice as to how they want to distribute their work. If they want to share it for nothing, fine. If they want to charge for it, fine too.
What we DON’T need are people sharing other people’s work when it’s not free in the first place, in addition to (i) getting paid to do so and (ii) making file locker owners money in the process.
have you ever think in freeze the paypal account for DEPOSITFILES there are lots of copyright material and as all the filehostings, ilegal porn…
Have a nice day and good job.
What is wrong with you people paying for access to file lockers?
I’ve never paid, and I’ve downloaded several TB worth of stuff over the past few years. Many file lockers have “free” or “slow” download option, and the max file-size for the free option can be 200 to 600 mb in size. Many people post links to multiple lockers so you can download an entire movie or music CD by accessing 2 or 3 filelockers simultaneously (and without paying). If you want to download again from the same file-locker, just change your IP address and you’re ready to download again.
My point is that blocking filelockers from using paypal is dumb because nobody needs to pay filelockers in the first place. What’s my favorite content site you ask? av****me.ws
Sad and pathetic how pirates trying to justify their behavior… and loaning a cd or movie to a real excisting friend is something different then uploading content and share it with millions (rest of comment deleted due to foul language)
Oh no! Warez will be wiped out forever now that Agent King is on the case!
LOL
I’m sure I’m not the only one that thinks this is futile…
What do you hope to gain from all this? If people want a service they will always be able to find it no matter how hard you try to stop it. Sure I don’t agree with profiteering from piracy.
Piracy has been around in many forms for many many many years, before fie locker sites there was P2P protocols and FTP/IRC where people would share between themselves (although nobody profited).
Then there is torrents which is impossible to stop, sure you can look at people IP addresses but then people can always use VPN services and TOR.
But before all of that and even what most people consider the internet as it is today there was and still is newsgroups which contain binary files which are totally unmoderated and protected by law, a lot of these services are provided by ISPs themselves (probably to save them money in the long run by not purchasing outside bandwidth).
So a lot of ISPs don’t even give a crap about piracy, in fact they love it and use it as a selling point to sell people faster connections and premium prices. How do you hope to stop all of this… please enlighten us all?
If it’s futile, then why comment ?
One thing we find interesting about our critics is that they invest a great deal of time trying to tell us how what we’re doing wont work, or is a waste of time. One would think if they really believed this they’d just sit back an watch the failure of our efforts.
However the one thing many of our critics have in common is that behind the cries of ‘you’ll fail’ and ‘its a waste of time’ is the fear that we will have an impact.
I think the editors’ goal was to make a blog and drive visitors to it. I’m sure he gets a few visitors just looking at the number of commentors.
I upload some and I recently made the switch to another payment processor and I still get my payment quick and easy it wasn’t a problem at all.
At first I thought it would be a problem but now I just use WM to get my money fast and easy.
good luck with your blog.
Wow get a life and get over file storage sites. Take your 1900s witch hunt to a 3rd world country if you dont like it here.
