    i would really like to learn if there is such a list as well since there are a lot of these apps listing themselves as "free" when they are not free at all. whats with this exception?

    There are no black lists and the apps that are free but offer in-app purchases are not fraudulent.  They do allow you to play without paying money, however there are likely to be many options and oppotunities to purchase items within the game.

     

    If you feel that a application is truly fraudulent because it makes statements or promises that are not true or it has charged you money without your consent, then you need to contact iTunes Store Support to let them know.
