ICYMI: Because Google is not doing a great job of protecting Android users from malware, there are eight new popular apps you need to delete right away.
All in all, Evina's Maxime Ingrao estimates this malware-spreading campaign impacted more than three million devices, subscribing the owners of said Androids to bogus"premium" services without their knowledge or authorization. Many of those users might still be paying for"subscriptions" they don't want, need, or even have any idea about.
Because the"Autolycos" malware was found to be extremely crafty and discreet in its harmful actions, accessing among others a user's text messages without permission, there's a very good chance the above list of compromised Android apps will rapidly grow before long. Hopefully, with negative media attention on the company , Google will ramp up its virus-fighting and especially virus-deleting efforts.
