Sad! The App was published on 2 June 2020 and has over 500 downloads. Imagine the number of chaps whose private keys have already been phished  >:(
Google Playstore is a big joke. I have tried to report the app from my mobile device. Let's hope they respond and remove it very soon.

People should really take cautious and inquire first on the project if there is really an app release by them cause tendency these scammers to use their project for scamming is high.

I dont want to visit the site, but the process of uploading the wallet is through private key? Then those 500 users were doomed.

How irresponsible Google Play Store are! This app should be remove from iInternet soon as possible. Already reported that app.Hopefully everyone will spread this news everywhere!
I think Google doesnt do their research and keeps accepting application, just for money. Damn, Apple will get ahead if they continue to slack like this.

It's all Google's fault, how came they are still allowing this kind of apps to proliferate on their platform? We have seen thousands of fake apps but it seems they really doesn't care about and continue to allow criminals to deploy this kind of apps. I agree that Google Apps Store shouldn't be trusted now, unless they really do their job to clean their system again.
