The thumbnail says "unofficial" and malicious apps tend to try and trick you into thinking it's official. So I'm not sure it's malicious.
So them saying it's unofficial makes you think it is more safe, since surely if it said official it'd be malicious?
Sounds like putting unofficial there might just make even more people trust it then, good for a malicious app.
We're on like, what, three levels of reverse psychology now?
