Just last month, Google ditched more than 50 apps from its Play Store over concerns the software could fill devices with annoying adware and leave Android users with a phone that's
constantly being bombarded with unwanted adverts. Now a new threat has been discovered with a further 25 popular applications being banned by the US technology firm. As reported by ZDNet,
the latest attack is incredibly serious as it's able to target users of Facebook with personal details and credentials stolen by hackers from social network accounts. The shocking
malware was discovered by French cyber-security firm Evina who has confirmed that the apps were able to infiltrate devices by offering genuine functionality. However, once installed the
hidden code embedded within the app then sets about stealing personal data via some nasty tactics. With the malicious code automatically activated it then lies in wait until the Android
phone user launches Facebook. It then has the ability to mimic the popular social media site and overlay a web browser window on top of the official Facebook app. READ MORE Android users
must delete these apps today as threats DOUBLE for millions This well-produced fake login page is almost impossible to spot and users are easily tricked into entering their user names and
password which is sent to hackers to use at a later date. Speaking about the attack, Lionel Ferri, Evina CTO: “It’s a fraudulent technique that points out the danger and reflects how
important it is to protect yourself. It can not be identified by Facebook as the malware displays in front of the legit app when it is launched”. Here's a full list of the apps that
Google has removed. While that means these apps are no longer available to download from the Play Store, you will need to ditch them from your smartphone yourself. SUPER WALLPAPERS
