Many Victims Were Affected

The apps were installed more than 560,000 times together. Two of the apps were even trending on the Play Store.

If you have installed an infected app on your phone anyway, it’s a good idea to put your phone in airplane mode before deleting the app. Another way is to start your phone in safe mode and then remove the app. This way you avoid the app causing more damage.
