Android users have been warned over four apps that can access your bank details and drain your account. The security team at ThreatFabric say scammers are using apps uploaded to the Google Play Store to infect phones with the Anatsa banking trojan.
Once installed on a device, the bug takes credentials that are used to authorise users when they launch and log into mobile banking applications. If successful, it gives hackers full control of accounts including credentials, credit card details, balance and payment information plus there's the nightmare of funds being transferred without the owner ever knowing.
The latest resurgence of the bug is now targeting Android users in the UK and the USA along with phone owners in Italy, Germany and France, reports The Mirror.
