So recently I was interested in buying an altcoin my friend recommended (TEL) and when I went to coinmarketcap they recommended the Atomic Wallet for storage

I went to download via Google Play store on mobile and luckily checked the reviews before downloading because the real Atomic wallet app is only available on iOS at the moment and the android version was set up by some dodgy dudes  (to scam coins off users?)

Are you talking about the fake (android) Atomic wallet, or the 'real' one on iOS?
