though he says he was warned that Apple knows about this … think he actually was being told: not to bother contacting Apple
It is in our professional interest that every time we become aware of fraudulent schemes … we should notify Apple! …

as I doubt these hustlers are offering to make bots to download paid games … there is no money involved
alas, since the iTunes App Store … is almost autonomous from Apple, Inc. … many problems with overseeing content and user's actions/behaviors have escalated to the realm of ridiculous!
keep hounding iTunes App Store and follow-up with complaints to Apple!
