Platform Overview: Seoc.top, a fraudulent platform, lured users into a fake SEO job scheme involving tasks that required cryptocurrency deposits. Initially presented as a remote job opportunity offering daily earnings through tasks, users were progressively encouraged to deposit increasing amounts of cryptocurrency to complete these tasks. The platform continually blocked withdrawals, claiming additional security deposits were necessary to release the funds, leading to significant financial losses for users.

High Security Deposit Demands: The platform required additional deposits for security purposes before withdrawals, a common scam tactic.
Impossible Task Progression: The number of tasks and required deposits increased over time, trapping the user in a cycle of deposits.
Unresponsive Customer Support: Communication was primarily through a “customer service” chat that repeatedly denied requests for alternative solutions.
Crypto-Only Transactions: Payments were requested in cryptocurrency, making them irreversible and harder to trace.Conclusion
Seoc.top has been identified as a fraudulent platform exploiting individuals with false promises of remote work income through SEO tasks. Users should avoid platforms requiring deposits to complete tasks and be cautious of remote job offers involving cryptocurrency transactions.
