      He changed his email address now:

      [email protected]

      Watch out for him again. His old account was asking for promo codes, now he has moved onto betas. But he didn't change his story about the end of the year holiday roundup :p

      Someone needs to send him a 'beta' that crashes his device and wipes the info.

      I fell for this one... sadly it was because initially TA did want to review Xeno Sola, so I assumed they had thought "oh we forgot this one." Sigh.

      Pssshhhhh, obviously Hodapp is impersonating Arn to get free games. Durrr it's obvious since he's always complaining about paying 99¢ for things. Connect the dots man.

      I just got the same e-mail posted from the OP for my game Lockdown asking for a promo code. I thought it was Legit for a second :( .

      His address is now [email protected]

      Code:
      Hi,

On behalf of http://www.macrumors.com/ I would like to know if we could have a Free iTunes Code for your Application so we could review it for our website's special upcoming app review bash?

Cheers,
Macrumors.
      Good thing I am out of promo codes. I gave em all away here anyways and properly submitted one to Touch Arcade ;)

      Pfft, live.com, who uses that for email?

      Arn's real email address is [email protected]

      Seriously though, unless the originating mail server is toucharcade.com or normakid.com it's fake. ;)
