Sorry for the inconvenience caused - I have removed all my applications off right now.

I dont know what other developers do - but I dont have enough time to go make email accounts and then get an itunes account buy applications and review them.

It was a big mistake to give out free promo codes - Its been a lesson to me - No more free applications for anyone - All the Applications have been removed from the store.
Vivian, thanks for replying. The fact is though that you have been making money off 'falsified' information. Do you know what wire fraud is? Look it up. I doubt Apple would take action against this, but you never know. You're certainly not the only one doing it. Big studios are even more culpable of this sort of thing.
