Every and all apps can be faked if there's no code verification to register, plus mass signup detection. For example 1,000 email registrations from name@me2.info, those are all fake.

A puzzle captcha combined with receiving an alphanumeric code verification seems to have a very high percentage of only real humans registering, that is if the company is not built on a scam from the very conception to get free investment money.

Wasn't Softbank also one of the biggest investors into the biggest ponzi scheme of the 21st century called WeWork?

Softbank is behind almost everything for reason. They're the "I bet on all outcomes, so I can't lose" meme in real life.
