    Okay but, installing an apk is not the kind of thing a scammer does. They’ll just install some standard off the shelf remote access software from the play store

    This very much feels like they just needed to come up with a new justification for this process and opted for scammers for some reason. Even though they’re completely disconnected

      It feels that way because that’s exactly what happened.

        I was hoping for at least something slightly believable, someone let Gemini write the justification I guess

          They don’t even respect us enough to bother with trying to make their lies convincing anymore.
