Essentially saying we’ll just ‘install’ piracy, as FitGirl is a major player in the piracy scene (as far as games go, no clue if they do other things).
Unless I’m wrong and Fitgirl now has repacks for major android/iOS apps that can be utilized through an existing app interface.
This was supposed to be taken down, but I guess its a proof how you can passively promote piracy on to the play store. This app shows a list of games that have been cracked & repacked
As others have said, Fitgirl is a major player in the games piracy scene. She doesn’t crack the games, but she does repack cracked games (compresses them in clever ways). It’s quite common for people to impersonate her or her site to try to fool people into downloading malware. This seems to be another one of those.
She warns against this quite frequently. From her faq, for example:
"Q: Do you have a Facebook page?
A: I didn’t, don’t and won’t have a Facebook page. The same applies to Twitter, Instagram, whatever else. This site is the only official FitGirl Repacks source. If you happen to come here from “Facebook FitGirl Page” – you’ve been fooled by an imposter. "

And also it’s very probably a malicious app that does in fact not give you any pirated games.
Probably adware at best. Wouldn’t doubt it also just sends you to non-play apk downloads of malware
Not knowing that I assumed that Fitgirl was just some crappy gooner app that Google automatically promotes.
Yeah fitgirl would never release official android app or any platform for that matter.

Fitgirl is a release group for warez.
