A number of Android apps have been found containing a dangerous virus that allows hackers to steal bank clients' data.

Some 29 apps that seem to be harmless and offer horoscope batteries or management or optimize and clean mobile phones are actually infected by a Trojan that enabled remote control to send and receive messages on the infected device.

In this way hackers can access the security protocols held by bank notes, the “Daily Mail” reported.

After the Security Signature E SET discovered dangerous applications, they reported Google that removed them from their Google Play store where they could be downloaded. However, about 30,000 people have installed these apps, according to E SET in their official blog.

Behind the app is an attacker or a group of hackers. Unlike all the most common apps designed to imitate financial institutions and display false identification screens, these are classified as a sophisticated banking maware with complex and secret functionality.

hackers can listen to calls or messages used for two - level authorizations, download and install other applications.

What happens when you start apps?

Once it's started, these apps can show a mistake indicating that they were removed because of incompatibility with your device and then hidden from your point of view. It is possible that they still behave like an app they represent, like a horoscope.

But the main functionality is a data package used to imitate a banking app and get user data, and then your money, experts warn.
