News from La Riley

According to reports, people have succeeded in copying the footage created for the VaxiCode application and getting approval to download these fake applications on Google Play. As soon as MSSSS was informed of the situation, action was taken by Google to remove the fake applications as soon as possible. It is important to note that this situation is not associated with an integrity or security issue with the official VaxiCode and VaxiCode Verif applications. These are secure and ensure the security of personal information. Copying this type of popular application is a growing problem. Therefore, the citizen should ensure awareness to ensure that they download the proper official application. The following criteria make it possible to confirm this: for the citizen, the name of the application must be exactly “VaxiCode” without any other word before or after it; For the merchant, the name of the application must be exactly “VaxiCode Verif”, before and after the pronunciation without any other word; VaxiCode and VaxiCode Verif only ask permission to access the device’s camera or files / images; VaxiCode does not contain any advertising; Finally, fake applications will not allow you to download your QR code.
