An expert in Android security is warning users that some developers of crappy Android apps have come up with a new trick for fooling users into installing their apps.

The trick relies on app devs registering Google Play Store developer accounts that mimic install counts, instead of their real name, such as "1 million installs," Installs 1,000,000," "100,000,000 Downloads," "5,000,000+," "1,000,000,000" and other similar formats.
