What’s 2% of 1000? 20. 20 malicious apps. I don’t even have to search to know that Windows, Android have more than 20 apiece. Maybe even 25, but I don’t know, that’s a big number.Feel free to inform all the people that performed the studies that showed that 2% of the top 1000 apps in the Appstore are scam apps. Lol!
How did one scam app developer make 13 million from the Appstore app? It is mind boggling.
And, I know what malware supporters are thinking. “Apple can do better than that. With their help, there can be 40, 4000, 40,000 and more malware ALL ACROSS the internet! Let’s work to make iOS the kind of malware infested OS we all know it can be! The App Store just does NOT provide the type of environment where malware can flourish!”
No, it’s not mind boggling, it’s the same thing that Netflix, Paramount+, and all subscription services do. Get people to sign up for a free trial understanding they’ll be autobilled at the end of the trial period and hope they don’t cancel. The app wasn’t even a scam, it does exactly what it says it does. I downloaded, didn’t sign up then deleted it. If I had signed up for the subscription, I could have gone into settings and disabled the auto bill even before I was billed. No subscription payment, no malware left on my phone, no ransom ware, no identity theft. I know Windows users WISH scams on Windows were ONLY that bad.How did one scam app developer make 13 million from the Appstore app? It is mind boggling.
