Scammers are abusing mobile ad networks in an attempt to phish Android app users
https://www.cyberscoop.com/ad-network-ma...a-wandera/CyberScoop Wrote:A network that delivers ads to hundreds of Android apps also is directing users to malicious websites that could help scammers steal their information or overrun their device with spam.We're talking about over 400 Android apps that might infect you because they depend on this software. They first fool developers by giving them fake SDKs. Then they unknowingly share their apps with that malicious add service and boom! Hackers gotcha! They also use push notifications trying to make you tap on them! They want you to watch porn or play games that ask you for your personal data!
They've attempted to reach the New York based company in charge of StartApp, but the company remains silent...
Beware of AdSalsa! It's a firm located in Spain that is serving those fake ads!
The latest in FBI impersonation: An extortion scheme involving mobile ransomware
https://www.cyberscoop.com/android-ranso...point-fbi/While the FBI surely gets involved in unlocking phones and chasing down hackers from pretty much anywhere in the world, its duties do not include locking a suspect’s phone and demanding a fee to get the data back.
Cyberscoop warn that crooks are encrypting the data on Android phones, accusing the victims of possessing illegal pornographic material and claiming that their personal details have been sent to an FBI data center. Victims are told to pay $500 to escape the situation.
Needless to say that paying the criminals to restore your files is useless.
