Mobile (HP) is the device most often used in everyday life, from communicating to making various transactions. However, along with the increasing popularity of HP, the accompanying security threats are also increasingly prevalent.
There are various modes, mostly in the form of applications that are infiltrated by data-stealing malware. The application is often downloaded by users from unofficial stores, but recently spread via WhatsApp messages.
Therefore, it is better to be careful when downloading applications from unofficial sources. The danger is not only that data is stolen, even the contents of many accounts are drained.
3 Latest Dangers on Cellphones, Can Steal Personal Data to Drain Accounts
1. APK-shaped Wedding Invitations
Viral fraud mode on WhatsApp that leads victims to download 'wedding invitations'. Similar to the package photo scam that turned out to be an APK, now there is another scam that is exactly the same.
In screenshots circulating on the internet, an unknown person sends a message on WhatsApp. The person seems to force the recipient of the message to download the 'wedding invitation'. In fact, if you pay attention, the file is in the form of an APK.
If the recipient clicks and installs the APK, the existing data including bank accounts can be sucked up and stolen. This scam uses the method of 'social engineering' created by the perpetrator, and as long as the recipient does not install the APK he will escape the trap.
2. Like YouTube get money
In recent months, the Gizchina page has been scammed via WhatsApp, which offers money with just a few clicks. This incident was found in Brazil, India and several other countries.
Scammers promise extra income just by liking some YouTube videos. Scammers contact people via WhatsApp and say they are representatives of a global marketing company.
Once scammers approach a WhatsApp user, they will collect data and ask the user to install the app to transfer payments. The problem is that these apps are usually trojans or malware.
Once the application is installed, the victim will give the scammer access to details of bank accounts, credit cards, emails, and more. So if you get a message offering this kind of job, be aware that it could be a scam.
