Hello,Thank you for your patience while we thoroughly evaluated the activity associated with your Apple Developer Program membership.We have completed our investigation and have determined that your Apple Developer Program membership, or another membership associated with your developer account, has been used for dishonest or fraudulent activity. This is prohibited by Section 3.2(f) of the Apple Developer Program License Agreement:"You will not, directly or indirectly, commit any act intended to interfere with the Apple Software or Services, the intent of this Agreement, or Apple’s business practices including, but not limited to, taking actions that may hinder the performance or intended use of the App Store, Custom App Distribution, or the Program."For this reason, your Apple Developer Program membership will be terminated. This appeal decision is final, and any subsequent appeals you file will be closed without review.The guiding principle of the App Store is to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for users and a great opportunity for all developers to be successful. We work hard to make the App Store a trustworthy ecosystem and expect our app developers to be honest with users and with us. Manipulative or misleading behavior degrades user trust in the App Store and is grounds for removal from the Apple Developer Program.We have found a pattern of manipulative or misleading behavior that has led to the termination of your Apple Developer Program membership. These behaviors can include, but are not limited to, inaccurate metadata describing your app or service, misleading app content, engaging in inauthentic ratings and reviews manipulation, providing misleading customer support responses, providing misleading responses in Resolution Center, engaging in misleading purchasing or bait and switch schemes, or other dishonest or fraudulent activity within or outside of the app.This notification is not intended to be a complete statement of the facts regarding this matter, and nothing in this letter should be construed as a waiver of any rights or remedies Apple may have, all of which are hereby reserved.Once your Apple Developer Program membership is formally terminated in our systems, we will deny your reapplication to the Apple Developer Program for one year. After one year, you may petition the App Review Board to reinstate your account by completing this form: Re-instate a Terminated Developer Program Membership. In your petition, provide the specific reasons why the App Review Board should consider re-instating your Apple Developer Program membership.Best regards,App Review Board
