The question is, why does chrome give room for damn cheats to place phishing applications in their stores ? Does chrome not do verification or some kind of warning to potential users who want to install something on a PC like (always be careful to install anything if the extension does not yet have a good rating and feedback).

Unfortunately, this web shop has become a potential means for fraudsters to cheat victims. I have heard that there are many others who are victims of fake extensions on the web store. Especially for crypto fans, you really need to be careful. @DroomieChikito, thank you for sharing information about this.

Please be aware of fraudulent KeepKey apps in the Chrome Store. It is essential to use either of the two official software clients for your KeepKey: The ShapeShift Platform or the KeepKey Chrome Client. We will never ask you for your 12 word seed phrase, if anyone does that is a scam. Phishing attempts, such as these fake wallet apps, can lead to users losing their crypto.
and Erick never know that news, this lesson to us always update news related to your wallet.

Be careful, the newbie don't install anything not related official website. the hacker used some bots pushing this fake extension up in the rankings. before action take a look on the official website and double check it before installs anything.
