Is this phishing, retardation or something else? - Trade Route App?

This person claiming to be a 'vendor' is reporting to have an issue with a Trade Route App. Now excuse me, but I'm no expert, however this seems to be terribly bad OPSec for there to be some sort of Trade Route app for vendors if this is true.

Honestly, this appears to me that he's either getting phished and doesn't realize it, or something else is going on.

This is where I had saw it: https://www.reddit.com/r/TradeRoute/comments/744nvk/urgent_help_trade_route_app_no_longer_connecting/

Edit: The same user also made another claim in this thread here regarding it being a "Temporary TR vendoring app": https://www.reddit.com/r/TradeRoute/comments/742klm/new_personal_greeting_image_main_site_url_phished/

I just saw this too and was looking at that user's post history. He seems to believe its real. Or wants others to believe it. If this guy actually downloaded a "TR App" or better yet, "TRapp", then he better hope to his personal god that its just a scammer and not LE. Malware, LE infect vendor's computer, another vendor busted.

/u/traderoutemoderator - you should take a look at this and tell this guy what's really going on because he seems to be under the impression that its legit. Some nuggets from that guy:

"Don't use the links off Reddit or Deep Dot Web because they are phishing links" LULZ, yeah then you'd figure out that this TRapp is a big wet phish.

"Once you use the app, you can't go back to the web version of Trade Route." LULZ, yeah no shit, your credentials have been phished sucker.

A total honeypot set up by either scammers or worse LE. Anybody who downloads anything from a Darknet Market is a retard. Have you people learned nothing from the Hansa take down?

Either it's a good troll, or a fucking retard.

Not sure who's more stupid, that guy or this one:

Tho I have to say it's pretty funny how he's so stubborn.

"It is an app for vendors only, you wouldn't know about it! Uh-uuuh, I didn't get phished and pwned, no."

Edit: wtf is with this doxx posted in those threads? Not a good thing for sure.

Edit2: would love to check that app out, anyone here that also has gotten the message about it that can upload it?
