iPhone ‘Heart Rate’ app on App Store attempts to scam customers out of $90 using Touch ID [U: Removed]<div class="feat-image">
</div>
<p>[Update: 4:58 ET: The app is no longer available on the App Store.]</p>
<p>Despite Apple’s strict review process for software distributed through the App Store, it’s still possible for malicious actors to take advantage of loop holes in the system to scam customers.</p>
<p>The latest example is a rather sophisticated and devious trick used by an app that claims to read your heart rate through your fingertip using Touch ID. In reality, the app (which is currently on the App Store) uses your fingerprint to authorize a transaction for $89.99 while dramatically dimming the screen to fool you.</p>
