Researchers have spotted a new Android Trojan flytrap. This virus is hacking the accounts of Facebook users from more than 140 countries. According to the Zimperium zLabs Mobile Threat Research team, since March 2021, malware has spread through malicious apps from the Google Play Store, third-party app stores and sideloaded apps. This malware works on a very simple trick. It first gets the victim to login to the malicious app using their Facebook credentials, then it steals the users’ data.
According to the researchers, Flytrap uses different types of mobile apps such as Netflix Coupon Code, Google Adwords Coupon code and Best Football Team Voting and Player. After downloading this app, it fools the users, and asks many types of questions. After answering all these, it directs the users to the Facebook login page, for which it asks to login with Facebook account to vote.
The malware uses JavaScript injections to gain access to users’ Facebook IDs, locations, email addresses, and IP addresses. The stolen information is then transferred to Flytrap’s command and control servers. Ziperium has warned Google about three dangerous apps that were transferring flytrap malware via the Google Play Store.
Google then researched and verified the malicious apps and removed them from the Google Play Store. Let’s know which are those apps…
