    Rene Ritchie Retweeted Ben Soucie

    The call, absent context, can be read in a number of ways. Ass covering, or bending over backwards to help dev help himself.https://twitter.com/BenSoucie/status/785634171083522048 …

    Rene Ritchie added,

    Ben Soucie @BenSoucie
    @ryuworks @reneritchie if you listen clearly to the call - the only talk from the Apple rep is that the account was “opened“ with the card

        @reneritchie the number of time that the @apple agent repeats that "Apple didn't make a mistake, the accounts were linked" is telling

        @istumbler @Apple Equalizes dev claiming no responsibility for an account on his card and devices?

        @reneritchie @Apple or if I lend or sell an old test device to another developer that's fraudulent? (Of course I try not to, but…)

        @istumbler If the account was set up on your credit card?

        @reneritchie sure, e.g.: new client, doesn't know how to sign up for the dev program, want's the app in their name

        @reneritchie my point: just because accounts where linked in the past, does not mean that they still are

        @istumbler Far as I know, accounts didn’t auto-renew until very recently.

        @reneritchie not sure why or how that's related? The accusation is that both accounts where *opened* with the same card not currently paid.

        @reneritchie Why is it simply an "other account" and that he helped "someone". In private discussions with Apple, just say who!

        @mattcomi I think he said his cousin?

        @reneritchie Oh ok, I haven't seen that. In the phone call he just says "I helped someone start to become an Apple developer"

      @reneritchie @BenSoucie by attempting to pursuade him to admit to actions he didn’t do? That’s not bending over backwards to help anyone.

      @reneritchie @BenSoucie Exactly. It likely depends on your existing feelings on Apple/the app store/this situation, which way you read it.

        @reneritchie @BenSoucie But they were still using the same test devices - so there was still a connection between the accounts.

        @brengla @reneritchie @BenSoucie not necessarily. Old device IDs can linger unused in provisioning profiles for years after being discarded.

        @reneritchie If he’s lying, at this point, doesn’t it mean Apple is willing to overlook fraud to protect their reputation?

        @BenDiFrancesco @reneritchie Apple doesn’t decide what is fraud. That’s up to the legal system.

        @silbey huh? Legality is even being discussed. Apple pulled his account for fraudulent reviews.
