Scary new Android malware is stealing bank logins in these 5 regions

[Andy Meek]

For all the digital threats that are circulating at any given time, including everything from credential-stealing malware to malicious code that bombards the end user with annoying ads and pop-ups, among the scariest and potentially most destructive are the threats that target victims’ banks and financial institutions.

We’ve reported on a number of such threats, including malware that steals login credentials to drain victim bank accounts. And now, another similar piece of Android malware has been identified by security researchers, who in recent days warned that this malware (which has been dubbed “TeaBot”) can take actions like live streaming the target device screen for the benefit of the attackers. It can also hijack login credentials and text messages in order to engage in fraudulent bank activity.
