The BlackBerry Messenger app that was supposed to go online at the Google Play store on September 21, 4:30 pm is not yet available for download. Instead, those who are browsing the app store are ending up downloading fake BBM apps.
Users are also falling for the 'download BBM' option appearing on the www.bbm.com. From the webpage, a link can be sent to the email ID configured on the smartphone. But the email with the subject 'BlackBerry Messenger download link' stated, click the link below from your BlackBerry smartphone to download BBM.
The official BlackBerry Messenger Twitter account (@BBM) tweeted, first tweeted "Love the enthusiasm. Still on the way - hold tight! #BBM4ALL".
Although, on google play earlier today we had applications that looked like bbm, these applications force downloaders to rate it five stars and forced some others to download unwanted games, I downloaded a few myself and saw that it didn't work instead, it gave me unwanted adds. These apps were built by other corporations.
I checked again by 9:30pm, but all these earlier applications have been removed by google play. Let's hang in there, the real application is on its way, but BBM for i-phones are available for download in the apple store.
When the app will be available, be sure you don't fall for fake apps and only download the one issued by BlackBerry Limited. The ones available by the name BBM by BlackBerry Inc. are also fake.
