Can’t prove it but I think Apple is okay with scams on the App Store. They provide a lot of IAP income that they love and they always manage to slip past app review when other developers get their apps rejected for asinine reasons if any. On top of this, getting a refund is incredibly frustrating as it’s up to Apple rather than individual developers.
I don’t think the App Store really helps with security all that much and is just a way to rent seek since you can only sell so many iPhones. Similar thing with Amazon where they sell a lot of bad products, even dangerous ones. Say what you will about traditional retailers but at least their limited capacity forces them to ensure that their products don’t let you do dumb shit.
