+Most good wallets have UI's designed to be safe. Unfortunately this guy was

+(it's not really even a wallet app at all)
+
+I think most of us have expressed displeasure at the existence of this site

+It's an extremely sharp tool which makes it easy to cut yourself, except it

+ordinary people.
+
+I don't know how to solve this. Badly designed software that looks
+appealing will always be a danger.
