APPLE Token: What It Is, Why It Doesn't Exist, and How to Spot Fake Crypto Tokens

There is no such thing as an APPLE token, a cryptocurrency falsely marketed as being tied to Apple Inc.. Despite what you might see on social media, Telegram groups, or shady websites, Apple has never created, endorsed, or launched a blockchain token. This isn't a hidden project—it's a scam. People are being tricked into clicking links, connecting wallets, or sending crypto to claim fake tokens that don't exist. The name "APPLE" is used because it's familiar, trusted, and triggers impulse actions. But in blockchain, familiarity doesn't mean legitimacy.

Scammers rely on the same trick over and over: they attach big brand names to fake tokens. You’ve probably seen claims for "GOOGLE Coin," "TESLA Token," or "AMAZON Airdrop." These are all fabrications. Real tokens like ELK token, the utility token for the Elk Finance cross-chain swap protocol on OKX Chain. or TSUGT, the token for the Captain Tsubasa blockchain game on Polygon. have public contracts, documented teams, active trading, and clear use cases. They’re not just names slapped onto a smart contract with zero code behind them. The CANDY token, earned by booking travel through TripCandy, not given away in airdrops. is a real example of a token with actual utility. It’s not free—it’s earned. And that’s the difference.

Fake tokens like the so-called APPLE token thrive on urgency and greed. They promise free money, exclusive access, or early rewards. But if a token has no website, no whitepaper, no team, and no exchange listing—it’s not real. Look at the HyperGraph (HGT) airdrop, a project that was never verified, with no blockchain activity or official presence. That’s the same pattern. No one is giving away Apple tokens. No one is giving away anything tied to Apple. If you’re being asked to sign a wallet approval or send a small amount of ETH to "unlock" the token, you’re being robbed. The only thing you’ll get is a drained wallet and a lesson learned.

What you’ll find in the posts below are real stories of how these scams work, how they’re built, and how to avoid them. You’ll see how fake exchanges like LongBit and AnimeSwap vanish overnight. You’ll learn why WNT and CANDY tokens aren’t airdropped—and how real rewards are earned. You’ll understand why Japan’s strict licensing rules and South Korea’s $34 billion crackdown on Upbit exist: to stop exactly this kind of fraud. This isn’t about hype. It’s about protecting your money. And if you’re reading this, you’re already one step ahead.
