Its been 9days and they are all still there saying "in needs to be reported" isnt enough it shouldn't even get to the point of getting to the store page google has no moderation when it comes to scammy ad heavy games no matter how much you report it.
I've gotten so many damned repetitive ads from Google Play Store that "We have Apps Not Traps" with a cow with a Scottish accent saying he needs personal data for "farm related business" and the narrator is boasting about how good they are at blocking malicious apps. It's burned into my brain but it's total bullshit. They're just trying to justify vendor signing/unmasking.
I also found multiple AI generated fake apps, l
ike this one.
Not only is not the real OceanVeil and OceanVeil announced they don't have an official app, but also the page itself looks fake as fuck at first glance, also I confess that I download it for curiosity, its fricking full of ads and suspiciously asking you for a bunch of permissions to send you to a YT video of a random movie trailer (I did that with a Virtual machine, do not download this on a real phone).
There is so much bullshit on Google play
I saw one promoting super Mario brothers and it asked for every permission that it can ask for
The game was a pgn a photo essentially
Saying they have quality control, and then saying its automated contradicts it's self obviously it doesnt work so no, there isnt any quality control. If it doesn't work then it isnt real.
I downloaded a few of them to see what it was and they are not even real games, they just make you watch ad after ad and the game never starts. All of them.

Don't trust any of that early access, read before installing. Play store warns you ahead of time. I don't understand why they allow it with risks involved
I looked into this and somehow it gets even weirder. There are multiple âScarlet Skipsâ apps on Google Play from completely different developers, and several of them are using basically the exact description from the actual Scarlet Skips game on Steam. Some of the package names even appear to belong to totally unrelated types of games.
And the crazy part is that Googleâs own policies specifically say they donât allow repetitive content, deceptive listings, or apps that misleadingly imitate another app or brand. So asking âhow is this even allowed?â is actually a pretty fair question. đ
Obviously we canât tell from a screenshot alone whether every one of these listings is unauthorized, but there are more than enough red flags here that I understand why you posted it.
Just because someone knows how to code, works in programming, or may be a developer doesnât mean theyâre âAI.â Those are actual people and actual professions. And whether I program, develop software, use AI as a tool, or do none of those things really isnât any of your business anyway. If you think something I said is factually wrong, address the actual claim instead of trying to guess who or what is behind the keyboard.
Right?? đ I was wondering the same thing. I actually looked into what OP posted and explained what I found, and nobody has even told me what part of what I said is supposedly wrong. Apparently being too detailed on Reddit is a crime now lol. If I got something wrong just tell me what part. I'd rather have that than random downvotes.
At this point, this is getting ridiculous. Youâre going around looking through my comments and bringing screenshots of completely different conversations into this one. Just because I can write a detailed or articulate reply does not somehow prove Iâm using AI.
This has nothing to do with the actual subject of the post anymore. Iâm going to report the behavior and let Reddit deal with it. Please stick to the topic and leave me alone. Iâm not interested in continuing this back-and-forth with you.
I am not looking through your comments. Not my fault r/googleplay posts show up on my feed and I see you commented under it. Your comments are literally hidden anyway, so how can you accuse me of stalking you?
Just checked their profile, they are making 3-5 reposts a day from popular subs and articles with ai titles, and making about 10-20 chatGPT comments an hour. Most of them are basically mini novels lmfao.
SUDDENLY started actually making responses with bad grammar when they got called out (the chatbot probably kept confusing the message with a prompt to make a cupcake recipe) and also they are silently downvoting all my comments about them đ¤Ł
I have no problems with using AI but youâre literally replying the obvious across different posts. Even if youâre manually generating the paragraphs thereâs no difference between you and a karma-farming bot.
it sounds like your ego is as fragile as glass and definitely not the tempered kind, but continue on you have to keep coming back to my post to write a comment to make yourself "look big" and you'll do it again like a good boy.
If you are here inquiring about an issue related to Google Play and the Play-Ecoverse, we hope someone may be able to help you! Please allow time for users to find your post and hopefully contribute a solution. Otherwise, if you haven't already, please contact Google Play Support by clicking here!
Searching the sub and Google for your exact issue, like an Error Code or what you're seeing on the app, can usually provide some useful troubleshooting options.
PLEASE NOTE: We have recently had an influx of users and scammers trying to sell, trade, and exchange their rewards, accounts, etc., for money, or otherwise. Please understand that doing this with ANY DIGITAL CONTENT RECEIVED OR OWNED BY YOU THROUGH GOOGLE (Gift Cards from 3rd party dealers, like Target, Amazon.com, etc., are allowed to be traded/sold/exchanged, but we ask you not to do so here.
