JAKARTA Sora is one of the most talked about applications lately. In the United States, the application has managed to rank the top three in the category of populeler applications on the App Store.

However, this popularity was apparently misused by a number of parties. Many rogue developers are known to create mock applications from OpenAI's Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based video creation platform.

Launching from 9to5mac, one of the applications known to be fake is an application called the Sora 2: AI Video Generator. This application seems to have succeeded in tricking the downloaders because they were ranked high on the App Store Top Photo & Video Application list.

Not only that, when users search for a simple keyword in the form of 'Sora' or 'Sora 2' it will also display several options. Previously, there were a dozen mock apps that were seen appearing on the App Store search page.

Some of them try to convince users by using the OpenAI logo on their icons. In fact, some include the name of the Google model, Veo, in the sub-judle section.

All of these fake applications offer in-app purchases. They also charge a fairly expensive weekly subscription fee from unsuspicious users.

Therefore, you need to be careful with the circulation of the Sora application on the App Store. Although you are curious and want to try it, keep in mind that the new Sora is available to users in the US and Canada. Apart from those two, it is certain that the application is fake.

In addition, the Sora app is currently still based on invitations. Since this news was created, Apple has removed a number of these mock apps from the App Store. However, to prevent future fraud, please be careful in downloading the app.
