I was checking the recent hype on SafePal when I saw this post warning users not to download the fake version. They have an ongoing airdrop and referral program so make sure you share the correct link to your friends if you are joining that.

Download the real wallet from the official links https://www.safepal.io/download

I have seen other fake mobile apps before to steal user funds and this won't be the last so let's be extra careful.

Thanks for the warning. The creation of fake apps became rampant due to many projects becoming successful and many new people come into the market.
Yes, there are many of them and targeting also other hardware wallets like Trezor and Ledger.

Safepal is getting popular no wonder many scammers are making clones to fool users to download the fake app I would recommend for users to download on the official website to get the official link to download the real app

Common modus with those hackers/scammers etc. in mimicking out those wallet and other services out there which is popular where they do know that they can really phish out some privatekeys to those
people who had been fooled to believe that they are the legit ones.Thanks to this warning op where it do really help out to spread awareness but for sure there are people who get
caught with this trap, this is why its always ideal to make verification first.

Visiting the main website itself doesnt really cost an arm and leg for you to do so because if you do just purely rely with some instant google search then you would most likely ending up
on this situation.

I suspect that because of their new toko airdrop partnership the scammers are now working to lay on the ground some fake app that totally resemble the original safepal. Of course many will be enlighten again to join thr new activity of safepal project cause of rewards they are given on their task. It is also a good opportunity for thieves to lay their trap for those who are Interested to join the giveaway and instead gonna get fall on their lousy trap.

So where this FAKE app can be seen? In google play store again?
If that so, this google play store is a suck, they don't even care about those people who will fall into the trap of scammers.
But anyway, thank you for sharing this. The good thing about me I most commonly visit the official site for security purposes, if I am not sure, I will visit their social media group like Twitter and telegram. This is very common now since we are in the bullish trend and every coin in the market is valuable in the market.

Google can't determine the app if it's a scam or not because they are just checking the app code compliance to there guidelines. It's either user will report it as scam or the app code is malicious. But if the clone app is in compliance to them, The bot checker will never determine it as scam since there's no way to tell if the app is scam or not by just checking the code.

Thank you for this idea, so it might good if we report this fake app and help our community not to fool by them.
This is very sad to google, they are a big company but they don't have a checker on the code either it legit or not, for them, as long they receive money that is fine.
