You can now directly report a scam on Apple App Store

Apple now lets you directly report an app that you are suspicious about through the new version of ‘Report a Problem’ button on the App Store. According to a report by The Verge, Richard Mazkewich and scam hunter Kosta Eleftheriou first found out about the update. “In a major reversal, Apple quietly added back the “Report a Problem” @AppStore button in iOS 15:” wrote Kosta on Twitter along with screenshots of the new button.

The company has not only added the button again but now it also has a dedicated “Report a scam or fraud” option in the drop-down menu. Until now it was quite difficult to report a scam or fraud as to report an issue with any app, you had to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the App Store and the only options available were – Report suspicious activity, Report a quality issue, Request a refund and Find my content.
