Warning: Beware of fake Android GateHub app

[GateHub]

There is NO official GateHub mobile app at the time being.

It has come to our attention that there is GateHub app by "MIT Service" available on Google Play Store. 

DO NOT USE THIS APP!!

Very interesting.  I attempted to open a GateHub account about a month ago and ran into trouble that made me suspicious that I had been redirected to a fraudulent site.  I abandoned my attempts and purchased the latest antivirus software updates to scan my computer - a Trojan Horse was discovered and deleted.  The whole field of cryptocurrencies is ripe for theft and therefore, it is up to each individual to scrutinize everything carefully, lest they become a statistic.

Doesn't Google vet what appears on Google Play?  Ridiculous.

No. It's user/installer beware for android.. Apple is a bit better at vetting in this regard with their walled garden.  Pros and Cons for the two platforms
