just lost btc through a scam wallet on google play market. if you type in 'bitcoin wallet'. you'll see SoBit: Bitcoin Wallet. it has 5 star rating & it would be first or second on the list. beware. once you send funds to it, it sends out btc somewhere else after confirmation. i couldnt believe it at first but then after going through 1 star reviews i realised i wasnt the only one. makes me wonder how can google allow this scam to be on top?


Google allow it because they are not the tool to assess the credibility of the apps. It was we who are very responsible of doing the research and at least seeing the reviews. In fact, you have seen the 1-star review and for me, it is quite doubtful about it and never I think it was reliable. Because if you bother to think about it, definitely you will never fall into this scam/fake wallet. And if you also hear about Electrum wallet, you never see yourself in the google play store looking for a Bitcoin wallet as it was indeed a trusted wallet already.
