Kaspersky finds 26 'FakeWallet' apps on Apple's App Store stealing wallet recovery phrases
Kaspersky found 26 decoy apps on Apple's App Store (games, calculators, to-do lists) that opened a fake App Store page and pushed users to sideload trojanized versions of MetaMask, Ledger, Trust Wallet, Coinbase, TokenPocket, imToken and Bitpie. The trojanized hot wallets captured recovery phrases during wallet creation or restore, and the Ledger lure asked for the phrase directly. The campaign ran since at least fall 2025, mostly against users in China, and is attributed with moderate confidence to the SparkKitty actors; Kaspersky reported all apps to Apple. No loss total was published.
