It's what happened to people who don't know the importance of official websites, when it comes to wallets apps and exchange apps I will rather go through the exchange website to download the app than using Google store

The most unpleasant thing is that this application was posted last month, on the second of July. And the fact that this scam was revealed quite recently. 500 downloads is quite a lot, considering that among them there can easily be clients of the exchange itself who are waiting for a mobile application. Another reminder that in the crypto world you need to check absolutely everything, several times.

This is kind a scary actually specially for those who are lazy to check if the trading sites really created a mobile app.
Before we actually use a mobile trading app make sure that it is really from the trading team not just by random person who are using their name to scam people.
We need to learn how to search and protect our crypto don't be lazy to do it and cry out later when you lose because of your laziness.

Oh, more scammers! Scandals, intrigues, investigations!
It is even interesting to know what Google can say about this-everyone knows that unfortunately their store is still a dump. There is no content verification at all or how?

I hope Google Store staff or parties from PlayStore should immediately delete this damn application because that's it is very detrimental for beginners who just joined in this crypto world. Be careful because there are a lot of fraudulent applications related to crypto on Playstore and thank you because you for sharing this important news with everyone here. this topic is very useful.

day by day crypto scammer that have high skill in techonology developt various techniqu to attack exchanges or anything that rellated about money. even popular twitter account attacked too, they thinking by attacking trusted account will make more people trusting and send money.
Scammer do everthing to manipulate people to do their requests, but the final decide not from him but from us. That's why we must always double check every piece information, make sure from an official and legit source, but even from legitimate source, we must judge whether it makes sense or not. If they offer easy money, surely it's from a scammer even if published from legitimate source

If that was already verified by Google Play's Play protect will that was a clear lapse on their part, Just be careful guys even a large and sophisticated app market like Google play store is not safe from the proliferation of fake app it's better to check carefully from the original party issuer to minimize the risk of being scam that might result of losing our hard earn money.

Be careful, Google Store has launched the IDEX Market mobile app, which is a SCAM.


How do we distinguish the application from official sources or not. If we search directly from Playstore there are indeed very many similar applications. But I suggest being able to visit the official site, and download based on their referral link. This method will be safer than using search.

Yes, it is much more secured same thing with the other wallet hackers already found a way to scam many people by using Google apps as tools I also found some one like this but they use  exodus wallet fake application.

Don't just install application you saw in the app store make sure it always came from legit source which you can only find in their website if they own it.

You can check the developer on the more details section and also you can get an idea with number of downloads, if it is new and have only few hundred or thousand downloads then better check the official site for more details but never use to playstore to redirect to the official websites because scammers may have cloned the official website as well with the changes they wanted to include.

There are a lot of shady apps in the google store and appstore, so be really careful when you want to download them to your phone. And just like what you said, we'd better go to their official website and visit the link there to download the app.

It's crazy considering how much time it takes nowadays to publish a normal app in google play store and how strict their reviews are but see this one scam app could go through easily. I must admit that google play really bad in term of reviewing apps in google playstore compared to app store. Maybe, security is not their first concern.

ofc security is thier concern . cant you see that their apps always update with the latest security patch  ? but they cant totally control the apps of other creators  but they give warnings before a user donwload and install them for potential threats  . apple on the other hand is more robust when it comes to thier standards  .  thanks for this thread  . we know that idex is popular on crypto  , if the app is scam many people wouldnt know it   and thier idex accounts can be in danger

Just to be clear, it was not Google Store that has launched this, it was the criminals who used Google's platform to run this SCAM. I think this should also be moved to Scam Accusations board for maximum exposure.


Yes, scammer is taking advantage of google store to upload this app to market. We need to denounce this app as soon as possible and hope the google store staff can take it down soon, I don't want people being cheated in this market.

The IDEX app should be reported because if not taken down, more people will fall prey. Those scammers are targeting private keys and mnemonic phrase or keystore of gullible crypto enthusiasts. Why will people be so heartless to create a fake app in order to scam others, this is not fair at all. Before installing any app, I usually confirm if it's legit to avoid stories that touch.
It's better if we are also helping the dev to report that scam app. It looks like the scammers were creating the fake app to fool others as they were feeling difficult to scam people caused by people have become even smarter. I will also report it asap and I hope it will be removed very soon.
