GriftHorse a new Android Trojans has been discovered and it tricks people into unwittingly subscribing to a recurring payment. If left unchecked, it could have potentially stolen hundreds of dollars from victims so far.
So far, the Trojans has been found to have infiltrated 100 android apps found on Google Play Store, and other third party apps store. Though Google said those apps have been removed from their store, but still available on third party apps store, and on users smartphones.
How those GrifHorse Work?
The free gift promoted by that notification takes you to a website that asks for your phone number, entering your phone number is to verify your identity so you can claim the prize. Once you enter your phone number, it will sign you up for a recurring subscription fee for a bogus service.
This charge doesn’t need a credit card. Instead, it’s an SMS-based subscription service, so your carrier gets the charges and passes them onto you
