The scheme functioned through false advertising bans that were hidden behind legitimate advertising bars on Android apps.

Android app creators received complaints from users that their battery was being spent too quickly as the reason for their use, but they themselves did not know what the problem was.

Then it was found that there are hidden ads that are “causing” cell phone batteries.

These ads were not looked to because they were hidden, causing companies to lose their money after investing in visible advertising.

The frauds, who have managed to avenge Android apps, are said to have seized thousands of euros.
