Apple’s App Store is hosting multi-million dollar scams

It's been a week since this issue became so highlighted. And a week since Apple still hasn't said a single thing. This is sad.

How to remove a competitor on the app store:

- pay $20 to buy them fake reviews without their knowledge

- complain that they are scammers and have fake reviews

Ironically the guy in the article complains that his competitor is a scammer but I went to check his own app reviews:

- Jan 18 '...very deceptive'

- Jan 16 'scam!'

- Jan 14 'cheated I want a refund of my money...'

- Jan 14 'They change for the app to download then charge 3.99 to unlock features. Terrible'

- Jan 12 'Horrible i payed to get the app just for me to pay $4 dollars more to unlock the feature of using the keyboard'

I guess his app is another example of the scam apps he complains about?

Makes you wonder if there is an entire team at Apple responsible for uncovering fraud and how this kind of thing is getting through.

"But still way less than Android and/or the open web" - though this wouldn't make for such an interesting headline...
