DefiLlama delays mobile app launch due to phishing impersonators on Apple's App Store

Odaily News, DefiLlama founder 0xngmi, of the crypto data analytics platform, stated that the team spent months asking Apple to remove phishing apps impersonating DefiLlama from the App Store, which delayed the mobile app's launch until all such counterfeit apps had been removed. 0xngmi noted that after the team downloaded one of the malicious apps and documented a small crypto wallet being stolen, Apple removed it within days. In 2024, the App Store also saw counterfeit apps impersonating Rabby Wallet and Curve Finance; in November 2023, a fake Ledger Live app on the Microsoft Store siphoned off $588,000 across 38 transactions.
