Fake Lastpass app found in apple app store

There’s a fake of an app called Lastpass, the same Lastpass app I use on my phone. The difference is the name of the developer, and according to Malwarebytes, some misspellings that may be noticable.

Lastpass’s main app is made by Log Me In, the parent company behind the company. Although Lastpass has been separate from Log Me In, I believe the two still work together.

This is one reason why I ask users who recommend apps to send me links, as I don’t want to be compromised. They just tell me to search for it but I think those days are over.

Warning from LastPass as fake app found on Apple App Store has the complete details including a quote from Lastpass themselves that indicate that they’re looking at taking this app down and any others that may be brandishing their IP.

Lastpass is surely trying here, I don’t think they’re at fault. They’re trying to change their bad year in to something even better, and by fighting this and teaming up with other companies, they’re on the right track.
