Fake wallet app makes it into the top 3 finance apps on the App Store (Update)
After the fiasco came to light, MyEtherWallet took to twitter to clarify that it has nothing to do with the impostor app and that it has filed a report regarding the issue.
This is NOT US. We have file reports and emailed and reported. Would appreciate the communities assistance in getting these scamtards out of our lives.

It is not yet clear whether the fake app was trying to rake in as much as possible on the back of the MyEtherWallet app, which costs $4.99, or if it was trying to actually steal crypto coins from those who fell for the scam.
Update: The rogue app has been pulled from the App Store. During its time on Apple's digital storefront, the fake wallet app has managed to garner some 3,000 downloads at a price of $4.99.
