Not long ago, 'Pokemon Go' launched in Korea. However, Niantic (provider of Pokemon Go) is in danger. The reason being is that Pokemon Go players are looking for, and finding ways to progress in the game. The players are using



programs or 'cheat apps'. An example of a cheat app is called 'Fake GPS'. The app 'Fake GPS' helps users control GPS.  It happened after 'Pokemon Go' launched in Korea.

  Fake GPS that controls GPS information appeared all round the world. So many users of 'Pokemon GO' used 'Fake GPS' to play 'Pokemon Go' well. The users wanted to catch many rare pokemon. And they wanted to win Pokemon battles. They wanted to find an easy way to catch rare pokemon. Finally they found the 'Fake GPS' app that they wanted. And it was that beginning that saw Niantic become in danger. As users use the 'Fake GPS' app, they don't need to use their money. So it is hard for Niantic to get money from the Pokemon Go users.


 There is another problem with the use of fake apps. "Such(fake) apps are feared to contain malicious code  that lures users in to subscribing to unneccssary services or can take over their phones.", says 'Police'.

 "To avoid such malware, gamers should not download suspicious emails or attached files.", says 'police'.

Korean Police has warned users of 'Fake GPS' app. So, the Korean police will take action against the problems made by the 'Fake GPS' app soon.

Niantic has failed to solve the problem of cheat apps. Moreover, 'Pokemon Go' is falling in popularity. Interest is falling in the game so fast.

Niantic's purpose for making this game was to increase the number of users to be active outside. However, it is failing because of 'Fake GPS'. Can Pokemon Go overcome this hardship?
