Notable scams
*PCSX4 - Appears to be a site hosted in France with the usual survey malarkey. It also is alleged to have been set up to steal PSIDs from legitimate PS4 consoles. There's also many other versions of this scam emulator.
*eMu3Ds - Uses the fake emulator shell scam. Installing the emulator leads to a fake UI which prompts users to fill up a survey for a non-existent BIOS. Site now hosts a likely infected build of [[Citra]].
*Artemis - Has a channel on YouTube demonstrating a purported PlayStation 3 emulator for Android. Youtuber MrSujano has made a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFKuoe3t4g8 short video] dispelling such claims, besides the fairly obvious fact that PS3 emulation is already system-intensive even on high-end systems, let alone commodity mobile devices.
*An emulator simply named "Xbox One Emulator" - Joshua Cannell from MalwareBytes said that this emulator has files from PCSX2, had fake "proved" images and videos, and gives you a trick used to gather your personal information for spam and other malicious purposes.
