90+ Android Apps Found Stealing Bank Info, Masquerading as Google Play Updates
Over 90 Android apps on Google Play, including "PDF Reader & File Manager" and "QR Reader & File Manager," have been found to contain banking malware, posing as legitimate tools to steal user data and financial credentials. Despite their removal from the Play Store, these apps still threaten users who previously downloaded them. Cybersecurity firm Zscaler highlights that many malicious apps disguise themselves as tools or personalization apps, with notable malware families like Anatsa, Joker, Adware, Facestealer, and Coper being distributed through the platform.
