Android’s Google Play Store and iPhone’s Apple iOS Store have been flooded with fake apps imitating OpenAI’s chatbot, ChatGPT.
The fake chatbots had been used as an avenue for scammers who defraud unsuspecting users by asking for subscription fees, Nairametrics reported on Tuesday.
The authentic AI tool, however, is currently available on its website and is free for use.
The beta version of ChatGPT, which was launched on November 30, 2022, did not require users to pay for subscription fees.
