Getting less knowledgeable users to buy an app is not a scam. Good for you
Despite my personal opinion, I explained that your app is notarized by Apple and posted links were it’s featured by reputable websites. The VirusTotal links I posted above show that your app and websites do not trigger any warning.
But you seem to be stuck in a past feud with someone and VirusTotal.
I don’t have time to waste in this kind of discussion. Good luck!

I have no idea what your talking about, I was discussing this with Apple care on the phone a few times..
Sounds like you work for one of the companies and fear that I said something but its not my intention, I dont have time or want to share my opinion about a product, I ask around cause even Apple says there are things some people know how to do which they dont advise if I do not know programming, nothing to break a warranty just technical programming things with the terminal..I am just asking for a solution.

That is a response to the previous comment by etresoft. As it was big, I didn’t think it was necessary to quote it.
