New spam for App Developper

October 16, 2026, 2:32 am new google-play app spam

Hi !

I wanted to share a new type of spam I received, as its new to me.

I didn't know people used to "sales" specific access to their google play store login, it's a strange new world to me. I assume if the publishing is tagged fraudulent, you become liable by laws, so even if the win at short term seem nice, it's a problem in the long term.

There to show what I received;

Hi !

Today I will share some parental control possible if you own a Meraki firewall at home.

First of all, you must know to have the control, you need the Advanced suite licence for the device. Enterprise licence does not cover that. For a strange reason Meraki's enterprise licence is the basic's one, without Content Filtering.

In a nutshell, it exist only 3 way to make it possible;

  1. Block Adult Content. That method will block for everyone in the house.

    • Go to the Meraki Dashboard.Navigate to Security & SD-WAN (or Wireless for AP-specific settings) > Configure > Content Filtering.
    • Check the option to Block adult content using the built-in database of objectionable websites.
    • Add custom blocked or allowed URL patterns/categories if needed.
  2. Create a Dedicated Kids' SSID. This method is more flexible that #1, as it block adult category on a SSID that the kid device will use.

    • Create a separate wireless network or SSID specifically for children's devices.
    • Apply strict content filtering and traffic shaping rules exclusively to that SSID.
  3. Set Access Schedules. This settings would go over the method #2, to make sure no device are left after bed time to naviguate or use the Internet.

    • Configure availability schedules on the specific kids' SSID to turn off internet access during bedtime or study hours.

I suggest those categories to block;
