DeFiLlama Founder Empties Own Wallet to Force Apple to Remove Fake App

The anonymous founder of DeFiLlama, 0xngmi, revealed he had to let a fake DeFiLlama app from the Apple App Store steal a small amount of cryptocurrency from his own wallet to prove it was fraudulent, after months of ignored trademark violation reports. Apple removed the app only after receiving this evidence. The fake app was a simple clone designed solely to steal users' secret recovery phrases. The founder disclosed the incident to warn other crypto teams, noting that scammers used defunct small businesses to pass Apple's verification. This prompted DeFiLlama to delay its official app launch until all clones were removed. The report highlights a broader issue of fraudulent apps and ads, citing similar incidents where users lost significant funds through cloned exchange platforms and fake Google ads.
