Fake Sora 2 apps flood App Stores worldwide

VHO - Users around the world are facing a wave of fake Sora 2 applications, taking advantage of ignorance to collect fees and cause dangerous confusion.

A series of “Sora 2” clones are flooding the global App Store, while the official OpenAI app is currently only available in the United States and Canada. This makes it easy for many international users, who are eager to experience it, to be confused and download fake apps.

Currently, one of the most prominent apps, called “Sora 2: AI Video Generator,” has climbed to number 9 in the App Store’s “Photo & Video” rankings. However, this is not an isolated case. When searching for the keyword “Sora 2,” dozens of different apps can be found, with similar names to confuse users. Some apps even use the OpenAI logo in their icons, while others include the name of Google’s Veo 3 model in their descriptions to trick downloaders. All of them have in common the integration of in-app purchases, even offering weekly subscriptions at quite high prices.

This phenomenon is not new. In fact, whenever a new AI tool gets attention, clones or fake apps quickly appear to ride the trend. The case of Sora is no exception. Since not everyone knows that the official app is limited to the US and Canada, many users in other countries are easily convinced that the “Sora” apps on the App Store are the real thing.

The risks for users are quite clear: not only do they lose money when subscribing to a premium package, but they also risk having their payment information, personal data exploited, or installing poor-quality apps, even ones containing malware. To protect themselves, users should always double-check the developer’s name, read reviews and comments, and be wary of new apps that appear unusual.

The phenomenon of “Sora 2” clones flooding the App Store once again shows the heat of AI products, and also reminds users to be alert and vigilant before downloading or spending money to register for any application.
