The withdrawal of the investors was not the worst-case scenario. The situation started because Blue Fox's scam had blown up. Following that, various phone manufacturers labeled them as scamming software.
If a user wanted to download Blue Fox, a dialog box would pop up, indicating that the software was not security-certified and that there was a risk. Then the negative comments about Blue Fox would scroll through the dialog box.
Being labeled as harmful software by mobile phones was not a small matter. Even Si Fan was anxious. He called various mobile phone manufacturers and learned that Blue Fox was no longer in the app store. At least, users would not be stopped from downloading the app from web pages.
Nevertheless, phone makers frequently advise that downloading from webpages was risky in the first place, and they were just being considerate of their users.
