Even if this isn't a viable business idea, it would make more an interesting experiment. It could really show how apps are approved or disapproved, and for what reasons. Something tells me the results would vary wildly, with apps being approved and being rejected for unclear reasons at about the same rate. However, that's just a hypothesis, and I don't have the time, cash or hardware to run the experiment.

I would assume you would be banned if/when they figure it out.

I guess you could get banned, but there are so many 'clone' apps out there it would be kinda hard for them to find out.

I was just wondering if it would be cost effective, since the rules seem to be arbitrary you might get more lenient reviewers and get through more often with more accts.

The process definitely has a lot of randomness, but this is a lot harder to do in practice then you think. Specifically, because you supply bank account information with every account, so now you're also creating several bank accounts. And there are a lot of other factors that would make it a major nuisance.

Yeah opening several bank account would be a huge nuisance.

Oh well just a thought.
