Are You Using Go Keyboard? You are At Risk

Beware! Go keyboard developed by GOMO
DEV Team is stealing your information including your email login details.

The apps have over 200 million users
and allegedly communicate with “dozens” of ad networks and
third-party trackers. As soon as you install one of the two GO Keyboard apps (GO Keyboard-Emoji keyboard, Swipe input, GIFs and GO Keyboard-Emoticon keyboard, Free Theme, GIF.”), information about
you is being transmitted. And  the most
annoying part is that in 20 countries, the apps were voted best app of 2016!
According to the report, the GO apps
send to its server information like your Google email account associated with
your Google Playstore, screen size, Android version, build and device model.
Since the app records every letter you type on your phone, the server owner
could start collecting whatever information he/she wants from GO Keyboard users.
Additionally, the apps communicate with tracking networks
and execute code from a remote server.
Although Google has been informed but
they are yet to decide what to do… If you still have it installed on your
Android phone, quickly uninstall it except you are okay with the monitoring
spirit collecting your private information.
