SCAM ALERT
SCAM ALERT: Moretech.ma and Owner Alae – Freelancer Payment Fraud
In the world of digital marketing and SEO, trust is the currency that keeps our industry moving. Unfortunately, some bad actors use the hard work of freelancers to grow their businesses and then disappear when it comes time to pay. This article serves as a formal warning regarding the website Moretech.ma, an IPTV service based in Morocco, and its owner, Alae.
The Incident
The owner of Moretech.ma, operating under the name Alae (Contact: +212 680-862803), recently commissioned a total of 9 professional articles to be published with live backlinks. During the initial negotiation, Alae refused to provide an advance payment, claiming he had been "scammed" before and would only pay once the work was verified.
As a professional showing good faith, I completed the task. I published the articles on high-quality sites and provided the live links as requested. Despite the work being completed to his specifications, the payment was never sent.
The Pattern of Deception
When the live links were delivered, Alae began a series of stalling tactics. He first promised to send the payment via Binance by "afternoon." When the afternoon passed, he promised it would be done by "evening." Instead of fulfilling his financial obligation, Alae chose to block all communication once he had secured the live SEO value for his website.
This is a classic "hit and run" scam used by unethical site owners to gain free SEO authority and traffic at the expense of independent workers.
Website Information and Warning to Users
The website involved is:
Service: IPTV Morocco
Owner Name: Alae
WhatsApp/Contact: +212 680-862803
We are calling on the international SEO and freelance community to take note of this behavior. If you are a service provider, writer, or link builder, do not engage with Moretech.ma or Alae without 100% upfront payment.
Furthermore, we urge all current and potential subscribers—especially those in French and Arabic-speaking regions—to be aware of the ethics of the company they are supporting. A business that built its online presence through theft and the exploitation of workers is not a business that can be trusted with your personal data or payment information.
A Call to Action
To protect the integrity of our industry, we request the following:
Freelancers: Check your records. If you have worked with this individual, ensure you have been paid. If not, consider removing any content or links pointing to this domain.
Webmasters: If you have hosted guest posts for this site, be aware that the middleman or writer may have been defrauded.
Community Reporting: Share this alert in SEO groups, "Blacklist" forums, and on social media to ensure no other freelancer loses their time and resources to this scam.
Stealing labor is a crime of integrity. While Alae may have received his live links for now, the long-term reputation of Moretech.ma will now be associated with fraud.
How to use this with your images:
When you post this on a blog or social media:
Use the screenshots: Upload the chat screenshots you provided as evidence. This proves the work was requested and the payment was promised.
Alt-Text: For the images, use keywords like "Moretech.ma scam," "IPTV Morocco Alae fraud," and "+212680862803 scam."
Title: Make sure the title of your post includes the website name so it shows up when people search for it on Google.
Note on "Reporting": Instead of asking for mass reports, it is better to submit a "Spam Report" to Google Search Console regarding the domain if you have the power to remove the links you created. If you published these on your own sites, delete the articles immediately.
