A new mobile malware campaign targeted at Android and iOS users has been identified by experts of the National Cyber Security Incident Response Team (CERT-RO) and the Romanian Intelligence Service (Cyberint National Center).
The phishing attack uses, among others, the identity of a well-known express shipping company, sending SMS messages that say 'Your package is on its way, follow it here' and thus inviting potential victims to access a link to check the status of a previously placed order.
"If the link is clicked, it downloads a Trojan on the user's device, which will extract data about it (model, phone operator details, IMEI number, etc.), bank card data and card operations. It also has the ability to take screenshots, add and retrieve calendar events, and also capture the strings of characters entered from the keyboard. The malware requires permissions for handling SMS and calls, accessing device data, contacts, or for total control over the device," cybersecurity experts warn.
