Atherium Wallet Metamascus Ficco Rack: Leaves Scam App on Google Miskenelli Store

On July 25, 2018, the Google Chrome App Store, a platform that enables users of the most widely used web browser to install the original browser application, has removed aetherium wallet metamask from its store.

In the form of a popular open-source and non-protective aetherium integrated in important browsers including Google Chrome, Firefox and Brave, there is a known wallet for decentralized applications (DAP) users on Metamask etherium, mostly for its simple user interface. The reason that allows users to start transactions on atherium main chain with minimal effort .

Augur and brave steps up

Obviously, the unexpected expulsion of Metamask from the GoogleChrome App Store prompted the Cryptocurrency Community and Metamask Development Team to panic, and metamask developer Kevin Serrano told the company's official statement, the team is concerned mainly about the presence of Metamask replicas Was the Google Chrome App Store, which had potentially theft funds from new users, rather than the original Metamask Wallet

The rapidly growing decentralized prediction market, based on the Atrium Network, Ogur's development team initially warned the users in the Atrial Community that they should avoid downloading Metamask replicas at Google Chrome App Store.

At the beginning of this year, brave browser team integrating Metamascus warned users to be aware of the situation and stop downloading fake Metamask Wallet on Google Chrome App Store.

In its official statement published on July 26, 2018, the Metamask team said that it was concerned about newcomers who downloaded fake wallet specifically to Google and all the company's efforts were allocated to ensure that The community is well aware of this matter.

"Phishing - Although most new users will come first on our landing page or are directly linked to the expansion list (both of which will eventually lead to a dead link), the presence of Luclease on the storefront page means that people are searching the extension confusing In addition, we were alerted to telegrams and many other phishing vectors on the Google Play Store, which was active at that time, "Serrano also said

Update and Next What happens next

Fortunately, after six hours of confirming the deployment of Google Chrome app store and Google on Arbitrators for error, Metamask was restored, all operations were returned to normal.

The most important thing is that the Metamsk team confirmed that the Metamask replicas and the fake valleys with which users have the ability to steal money and scams, the atherium holders have been removed from Google.

The team said:

"Chrome has been the most aggressively removed on the web store, the team will have ongoing discussions on red-alert scenarios and special protocols to handle each one. In the most optimistic case, to increase transparency, Most of the warning scenarios will share publicly. "

In essence, the root of the issue of Metamascal deletion on Google Chrome is similar to those of Twitter's fake bitcoin and etherium scandal that has been running since the beginning of 2018. Through the use of simple tools, there should be a centralized platform like Google and Twitter, to eliminate the possibility of phishing attacks, only able to move replication apps and accounts by removing new apps and accounts with the same name, image, and description.
