Fake Cydia app in the app store!

New Cydia app in the app store is a scam. Read Saurik's own review and warning about this application:

Cydia makes its way to the App Store, but it’s not what you think

You're welcome. Yeah, I was hoping to get the word out so fewer people would fall for this.

Wooooooooo, look at the description for the cydia app, "the caterpillar named Cydia if you remember it from chilhood" really?, caterpillar Cydia??, "please do not think this is the Cydia Store, if someone mixed between the two please get a refund" woo woo thats a big woo, the icon does not even refer to a caterpillar game -c-

Yeah, they clearly intended to rip people off, otherwise they wouldn't have used the same name and icon that are used by the Cydia store.

Looks like it's already been pulled from the app store. Thank you, Apple!
