Exposed! McAfee Escobar malware stealing passwords from your phone. Stop Trojan in just 6 steps
In a shocking expose, a new Android banking Trojan named "Escobar" has been found stealing one-time codes from Google Authenticator! This was considered as being impossible and yet, this banking Trojan is doing exactly that. What is shocking is that the Escobar malware is impersonating McAfee antivirus app. The malware is hidden inside an app found on Google Play Store and unsuspecting people have downloaded it only to suffer loss. The app not only steals SMS text messages, media files, but controls phone calls, tracks location, uses the phone's camera, uninstalls apps, injects new URLs into web browsers and, most devastating of all, uses the VNC remote-desktop function.
