Midjourney Scam App

Ben Sandofsky:

There’s a scam app claiming to be Midjourney, and it’s charting in the App Store.

Not only did he file junk trademark claims for Midjourney, he just admitted he’s doing the same for Wordle.

Click on the link in his twitter bio and it goes straight to a stripe check out page for consultant work. That tells you everything you need to know.

Kudos on his page in using Next Computer Inc. Last time I checked it was still registered to @Apple

Huge App Store success story. Congrats to @nickjsheriff!

Apple doesn’t remove obvious scams, and it just so happens that Apple benefits financially from those scams. Meanwhile “honest” apps are constantly shut down over enforcement of shifting and unknowable App Store rules.

It’s not surprising that developers are going to notice this and optimize for it.
