ICYMI: More and more Android users are becoming victims of Toll Fraud; this is when malware on your phone signs you up for expensive services you never subscribed to.
says that Android users are getting attacked by malware that signs up unsuspecting phone owners to expensive premium services that they didn't request or subscribe to. The victim is left holding the bag at the end of the day as the malware adds these charges to his or her monthly telecom bill. Since no one wants their handset to be cut off, these payments are usually made without questioning them, although many victims don't even bother looking over their phone bills every month.
The attackers seek to infect as many phones as possible while keeping their apps listed in the Google Play Store for as long as possible. These apps usually are listed under popular categories such as personalization , beauty, editor, communication , photography, and tools . Many of these malware-laden apps share the same UI, icons, and buttons. In the developer profile, look for fake developer names and fake email addresses. In the listing, watch out for spelling mistakes and poor grammar.
