Don’t get fooled by this fake, malicious version of the Clubhouse app

[Andy Meek]

The new audio-centric Clubhouse app is the latest social network that everyone is buzzing about, with the new app's cachet having risen so precipitously that it's attracted participation from big tech industry names like Bill Gates and Elon Musk -- while Facebook is going so far as to try to cobble together its own knock-off version of the service to blunt its growth. Heck, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg himself has even put in an appearance during one of the Clubhouse "shows," which are essentially these audio-only gatherings that include a host and guests who are allowed a pretty open filter to say what they want, while you, the audience, can listen in real time.

And here's one of the most important details to note right now about Clubhouse: At the time of this writing, the Clubhouse app is still iOS-only. During the most recent Clubhouse "Townhall" event over the weekend, Clubhouse co-founder Paul Davison said that an Android app launch for Clubhouse is at least a "couple of months" away, now that the company has hired an Android software developer. In the interim, however, hackers are trying to take advantage of the fact that people are anxious for an Android version of Clubhouse to arrive.
