This Android spyware is posing as an antivirus app to steal your photos and passwords — how to stay safe

In an attempt to protect yourself online, you might have downloaded a seemingly safe antivirus app that turned out to be a malicious app spreading dangerous spyware. Unfortunately, it may have come via a random Telegram or strange text message from a friend too. The LunaSpy Android spyware program was reported on in a recent Kaspersky blog post which revealed that the spyware has been infiltrating phones since at least February of this year. Allegedly, LunaSpy can be sent via messaging apps and sold as an antivirus program and sometimes as a banking protection app. The spyware pretends to scan your device for viruses to trick you into granting permissions to the app. However, doing so enables it to steal data, track you, and even record audio and video. While it pretends to run antivirus scans, LunaSpy is actually swiping passwords, recording your screen, and even running commands on your phone. Kaspersky even found unused code that would allow it to steal your photos. If you're data is stolen via LunaSpy, it's reportedly sent to over 150 command and control servers. These servers are then used by cybercriminals to communicate with and control infected devices. A spyware or malware infection can come from clicking on malicious links, downloading attachments in emails from unknown senders or through piracy. However, one of the most common ways to be infected is through both official and unofficial app stores. In the LunaSpy case, it can be traced back to malicious links. With that in mind, you need to be extremely careful putting new apps on your Android phone and especially ones recommended by others through messages on social media or over text. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. If you haven't heard of an app before, look for it in the Google Play Store and read reviews as well as check its ratings first. Since these can both be faked though, you'll want to look for external reviews on other sites. Video reviews are especially helpful as they give you a chance to see the app in action. For Android phones, you want to make sure that Google Play Protect is enabled on your devices Even good apps can go bad when injected with malicious code, we recommend limiting the number of apps you have installed overall just to be safe. Fewer apps means less risk that you've downloaded a malicious one or a legitimate app that has been taken over by hackers. For Android phones, you want to make sure that Google Play Protect is enabled on your devices. It's a free and built-in security app that scans your existing apps and any new ones you download for malware and other malicious activity. You might also want to consider running one of the best Android antivirus apps alongside it for additional protection. Malicious apps aren't going anywhere, and suspicious links are only one prong in hackers' attempts to get sensitive data. However, if you pause before tapping on a strange link and limit the number apps on your phone, your chances of getting infected go down significantly. Additionally, you'll want to discuss these safety practices with your younger and older family members and friends since not clicking suspicious links and investigating any new apps before you download them is key to keeping your loved ones safe from hackers.

Amazon's App Store on Android is waving goodbye next week

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. What you need to know Amazon's upcoming shutdown date for its app store on Android, August 20, is coming up. The company is no longer supporting Android devices with this store, as it shifts its focus to its own Fire Tablets, Fire TV, and more to "improve the experience." Amazon announced this back in February, while also informing users that their Coins will be refunded next week. The end is nigh for Amazon's app store for Android devices, as the company enters the final stretch of its support. A post by Android Police highlights the upcoming shutdown of the Amazon App Store for Android devices. While Amazon's version was viewed as a decent alternative for users looking for apps that the Google Play Store didn't carry, we'll still have to bid farewell to it next week on August 20. Android's the only way saying goodbye, as Amazon will (of course) keep its store available for its own devices. As the publication states, once support is over for the Amazon App Store on Android, there's "no guarantee" that apps will continue to work on those devices. So, it's likely Android users will need to either drop those apps once the issues start popping up or find alternative options on the Google Play Store. All app updates will end next week from the Amazon App Store, per the latest report. Saying goodbye to an alternative store Amazon started informing developers and consumers alike that it was going to shut down its store for Android on August 20 earlier this year. This alternative app store was available in 200 countries, bringing games and other apps to users who wanted other options. However, Amazon itself felt that there just wasn't much incentive to keep this store running for Android. The company said in February that this move was a shift to focusing more on improving its app store experience for its own devices, rather than looping Android into the mix, too. Specifically, an Amazon statement said this move was because an "overwhelming majority of our customers currently engage with it" on its Fire Tablet, Fire TV, and such devices. The other side was its digital currency: Amazon Coins. These coins will be discontinued, and any remaining will be refunded to users come August 20. We're also a bit wary of saying goodbye to Amazon's third-party store, due to the increased grip Google will have.
