Security News > 2024 > March > Fake Leather wallet app on Apple App Store is a crypto drainer
The developers of the Leather cryptocurrency wallet are warning of a fake app on the Apple App Store, with users reporting it is a wallet drainer that stole their digital assets.
Last week, the genuine Leather wallet warned its community about a fake version of its wallet on the Apple App Store, making it clear that the company does not yet offer an iOS app.
Since the App Store does not report download counts, the number of people who downloaded this crypto drainer app is unknown.
BleepingComputer has contacted Apple about the presence of the wallet drainer app on the App Store, but a comment wasn't immediately available.
In early February 2024, a fake app named 'LassPass,' which mimicked the popular password management app LastPass, was published on the App Store.
LastPass reported the fraudulent app to Apple via the recommended procedure, and it was removed from the App Store a few hours after our publication for violating guidelines on copycat apps.
