The dev actions here seem appropriate to me. As they said, it's a temporary/first action. And it might be that because of the nature of the exploit it's possible that some players might have gotten a significant number of extra shards without deliberately intending to do so?
I don't know what the exploit was so I don't know. I'd make the comparison, if someone deliberately used bluestacks to get the Samsung bonus some would argue that's an exploit (I don't want to accuse anyone so I'm using moderate language); but even if it is, if someone used bluestacks simply because they wanted to play the game on their PC or they forgot their phone elsewhere or whatever and as a result they got the Samsung bonus that's not a deliberate exploit even though the end result is the same. I wouldn't mind trying the game on my PC and if I do and end up getting a pack that would not have been my intention.
Without giving to much detail. The exploit allowed them to repeat one of the achievements repeatedly until they hard 100 shards for a 7* Vader. They have fixed this and I assume many others that use this same exploit.
