It costs a million dollars to trust Apple

The company has released a fake Bitcoin application in the App Store.

One of the advantages of the iPhone is Apple’s love for high security. He said that the data stored on the device is almost impossible to be stolen, and the possibility of installing malicious apps is very small, because the authorities can manually check all apps before they are released to the App Store, and they cannot Install the software on mobile devices elsewhere.

One Washington post Phillipe Christodoulou also blindly believes this statement, so he installed an application called Trezor in the App Store. He believes that the application is used to store a small cryptocurrency wallet of the same name. The official customer of the tool. He did not know that Trezor did not have an iOS mobile app, nor did he believe that criminals might pretend to be his manufacturer and upload a fake app designed to empty his wallet to the App Store on his behalf.

After unlocking the wallet, the malicious mobile app immediately robbed its content and 17.1 BitCoint passed it on to its manufacturer. At the time of writing, the criminal had stolen US$112,000 or HUF 312 million from the man at the current exchange rate.

You may say goodbye to your money forever.

Christodoulou is certainly angry with the criminals, but in fact, most of his anger is actually directed at how Apple completely brought money-stealing apps into the App Store, and he claimed that the company abused trust. This seems reasonable, on the one hand due to Apple’s communication, and on the other hand, because app developers often rip off their hair on the ridiculous excuse that their apps cannot test the app store.

In contrast, the inspector has not noticed that the submitted mobile phone is fake and malicious.

Apple declined to comment on the matter, and it is unclear whether it is willing to report the matter after deleting the application. After all, unlike the victim, Apple may have information that can help identify the perpetrator.

Of course, Android may be in the same situation, and the possibility is higher, but Google’s system is known to have malware problems. Therefore, compared with the situation where the Play Store does not have any reputation in this field, actors are more likely to find the financial applications they want to deploy, and are less likely to blindly trust the security of the store.
