Beware of Fake Antivirus Apps That Spy on Android Users
Originally Published 5 months ago — by Android Authority
LunaSpy is a malicious Android spyware disguised as an antivirus or banking protection app, spreading through messaging apps like Telegram. It tricks users into granting permissions by simulating virus scans, then steals data, tracks location, records audio/video, and can even access photos, all while communicating with a network of about 150 servers. Users are advised to avoid downloading APKs from unknown sources and to be cautious of suspicious security apps requesting broad permissions.
