Re: creative veinz app requesting a code

For something happening within a specific app/channel, it's tough to say if it's a legit request. When I look at that channel in the Roku channel store, I see it has very poor user ratings. The channel store lists creativeveinz dot com as the web site for the channel, but when I tried to access it there's no such web site, only a placeholder site for that domain name. What that usually means is a company has gone out of business. I'm not certain I would trust that channel.

Re: creative veinz app requesting a code

When a new channel requests a code to "authenticate" I usually bail out. Too much scamming recently. Channel operators don't need to know who I am or where I am.

That's exactly right. If you have to give something. It's not free anymore..

Roku really needs to do a better job of purging apps like this one. Searched Cannonball Run and this app shows it’s available but the app doesn’t work. App hasn’t worked in 6 months.

Their website appears to be dead.  @RokuAustin , how does an app get removed from the Channel Store?

So I put the code in as it requested to watch this movie and I got that same message everybody else did.  My question is did anyone get hacked because of this? Did anyone put the code in? If so did y’all get hacked?
