Moloco was recently made aware of several fraudulent scams using emails, messages, and websites falsely representing themselves as Moloco. We’re working to take legal action in the appropriate regions.
Given the fraudulent nature of these websites, we wanted to alert our advertisers and industry partners as quickly as possible. These scam websites are not affiliated with Moloco in any way. These websites are running several scams, from trying to get people to invest in cryptocurrencies, to taking money from individuals and companies in exchange for rating mobile apps, promising financial returns. The scammers are reaching out to people and companies via email and social media — as well as WhatsApp and Telegram.
No part of Moloco’s business would ask individuals or companies to send money in order to rate mobile apps or participate in any questionable investment opportunities. This is a fraudulent scam that is not affiliated with Moloco.
Some of these fake websites are listed below:
Moloco-revue.com
Moloco-local.com
Moloco-logical.com
We’re observing these fraudulent websites in several countries, including the United States and China. If you encounter any of these scams, please contact us at legal@moloco.com. We’d like to advise our advertisers and industry partners to use caution and verify businesses are legitimate through the appropriate legal channels in your country.
If you were a victim of this scam, please report it to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) at https://www.ftc.gov/complaint in the United States or the relevant authority in your country. The FTC is a U.S. government agency that collects complaints about fraudulent business practices and works to protect consumers.
