A fake app masquerading as password manager #LastPass just got pulled from the App Store

"The illegitimate app was listed under an individual developer’s name (Parvati Patel) and copied LastPass’s branding and user interface in an attempt to confuse users. Beyond being published by a different developer that was not LastPass owner LogMeIn, the fake app also had various misspellings and clues that indicated its fraudulent nature, LastPass said.

That such an obviously fake app got through Apple’s App Review process is a bad look for the tech giant, which has been arguing against new regulations, like the EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA), by claiming these laws would compromise customer safety and privacy."
