Has BLEASS been hacked?

edited February 2023 in General App Discussion

I just received a notification from the BLEASS Compressor app (the notification said I had 3 unread messages from BLEASS), tapped on it and it opened the app with a pornographic ad… in the app! Unbelievable. I think they or their apps have been hacked. This is not a joke and obviously I cannot post here what appeared in the app.

Anyone at @bleassapp aware of what is happening?

I turned off all BLEASS app notifications.

    Edit:

    Looks like it wasn't just me then. Going to delete my post:

    About five minutes ago I got a weird notification banner from one of the Bleass apps, similar to when there's a sale. I wish I had not clicked on it because I can't retrieve it again, but it was definitely one of those "x wants to chat" scammy ones. When I clicked on it (stupidly), it opened one of the Bleass apps (can't remember which). Then it tried to redirect me to a website on Safari.

    Luckily, I have restrictions on content access because my son likes to play with my phone, so no harm done as far as I know.

    I'm not sure how the notification stuff works with ios apps and how those are triggered. Therefore, I don't know if my phone has a virus that spoofed it, or if Bleass had a security incident.

    Thanks for the comment. They have been hacked or their security measures have failed. Now I’m concerned about any credit card information they might have on file.

  • Scary. Time to uninstall.

  • I just got one as well.

    It seems like something has hacked their notifications. i got a suss notification. didn't click it.

  • Got another one. Screenshot before dismissing:

    got another one

  • Got one from Alpha 😱

  • That's weird as I have notifications for ALL Bleass apps disabled in the settings but still that crap popped up?!
    Hopefully the @bleassapp dudes have a valid explanation for this...

  • Just received a message from Megalit.

  • Interesting, got Monolit and SlowMachine, both not listed under Notifications and I havent't had anything like this pop up

  • it seems that our iOS notification system has been hacked. Please ignore the weird notifications, we are currently investigating this issue.
    Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding!

    From Nadya you mean?

    Who had ‘BLEASS send porn via App notifications’ on their ‘weirdest iOS music sh*t of 2023’ bingo card?

    Crazy.

    With the security requirements Apple has in place for apps, it's shocking that this is even possible. Perhaps a customer database at the company was hacked.

    Yep!. I rushed here to comment on Tinderbleass but you’ve done the work…
    I did open the notification and got this sidekick preset (compressor in the background).

    Is it AUv3 ?

  • Isn’t see one of Bleass employees? She looks lonely.

    Developer’s receive no personal info (not even email addresses or names) from Apple.

  • We are very sorry for the inconvenience, please accept our sincere apologies.
    Our notification system provider has been hacked (it's not related to Apple) and we have just halted this faulty system.

    And yet I did just that… Should I feel terrible?. It’s not really porn, is it?.

    Inter-app only 😢 but you can purchase a very interesting sound pack as an IAP

    Hope you fire this offending company. They're clearly incapable of protecting your customers from malicious hackers.

  • Is it weird that part of me is disappointed that Nadya was hitting on other people at the same time?

  • good thing I rarely enable notifications for apps, and never for music making apps

    Considering this is Michael's site and not yours, you should delete those images.

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  • This forum can make a comedy of even the most serious topic 😂

    @bleassapp would be interesting to know which provider / library you're using for your notifications so other developers can avoid them.
