Scam warning: the fake MetaMask app in Google Play is stealing users ' Ethereums. The epidemic of fake Crypto money applications continues to spread effortlessly in the Play Store. Also Google seems to be doing nothing about it.
This fake metamask app is the fourth fake app on Google Play
Security Researcher Lukas Staffanko found another phishing application in Google Play Store. This time, a copy of Metamask, a popular Ethernet DAP Scanner. Last week, Google Play reported that it hosted a disturbing amount of fraudulent software related to Crypto money.
This fake metamask app is the fourth fake app in Google Play after at least two fake Myetwallets and a fake Poloniex app. It is unknown whether many users have suffered from previous fraud cases.
Scam application appears to have been deleted or removed from Play Store
Investigations into the metamask app on the Play Store show that at least a few users have been caught cheating. A user says, “the owner of this application is a thief. He stole my entire Ethereum. Please block the owner of this application. This is a fake practice. he filed a complaint. Another user, “spam application! I lost 2 thousand 700 dollars."he used his words.
It is remarkable that metamask does not have any apps in the Google Play Store. Just have it as a web browser extension for Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Opera. As of the writing date, the application appears to have been deleted or removed from the Play Store.
