Reply to "Major text-message parcel scam on Android phones"

@El Loro posted:

A text-message scam that infects Android phones is spreading across the UK, experts have warned.

The message - which pretends to be from a package delivery firm, prompts users to install a tracking app - but is actually a malicious piece of spyware.

Called Flubot, it can take over devices and spy on phones to gather sensitive data, including online banking details.

Millions of these text messages have been sent across all mobile phone networks.
