It has come to our attention that there is a development company in the Android Market who is scamming Android users. The company’s name is Bright Studios and they are publishing fake games with popular titles such as Plants Vs. Zombies, Tiny Wing and Hanging With Friends.

If you download these apps you will get a black screen that says “ERROR” on it. If this happens for any app or game that you install from the Market, immediately get a refund and remove the app from your device. Although these apps have not had any reports of malicious intent as far as damaging your Android device, they will take your money once you pass the 15 minute refund threshold.

If anyone experiences any other scams in the Market please feel free to let everyone know by using comments section of this post.
