Fraudster Helpers: Why AppStore Helps Freewallet Scammers?

 In previous materials, we talked about how well-known crypto portals help Freewallet scammers to advertise their app and find new victims. But it’s worth noting another site whose actions regarding Freewallet seem incredibly suspicious. We’ll talk about the AppStore.

AppStore, as one of the leading app marketplaces, plays a significant role in app distribution and accessibility. It serves as a platform where developers can showcase their apps to a vast user base. AppStore’s influence in the digital landscape also extends to app verification and security, as it sets guidelines for developers to follow in order to offer apps that meet quality standards and are safe for users.

Given its influential position, AppStore has a responsibility to vet and monitor apps for potential scams and fraudulent activities. This involves conducting rigorous checks on the legitimacy and security of apps before making them available to the public. By implementing robust screening processes and staying vigilant to emerging scam techniques, AppStore can help protect users from falling victim to fraudulent apps like Freewallet.

While AppStore has a responsibility to its users, it is essential to assess the effectiveness of their efforts in combating scams related to Freewallet. A critical evaluation of their response mechanisms, promptness in addressing concerns, and the overall impact on scam prevention will shed light on their dedication to fostering a secure digital environment.

According to our data, at least ten victims of Freewallet org scammers have already sent complaints to the AppStore administration with a request to block the application. We personally prepared two of them. But the administration ignored all such requests. This seems very strange, because you can find a huge number of complaints and negative comments on the Internet.

 

It’s enough to go to discussions on Reddit, Bitcointalk and other independent resources to understand that the Freewallet app steals users’ money. But what did the AppStore administration do? Nothing…

 

Therefore, we want to appeal to the application store once again: do not ignore users! Don’t let scammers steal new victims’ money! Remove Freewallet and all builds created by its developers!
