A newer Android Banking Trojan

 April 11, 2020


 A new Android banking trojan has capabilities that enables it to take over calls to a bank's customer support number - with the official logo and customer support number.

The trojan is called Fakecalls. No real magic, the app seeks permissions to contacts, microphone, camera, geolocation and call handling.

The bank's pre-recorded message sounds just like the bank's own because it is the bank's own.


The cited permissions allow takeover control of your device.

To be safer do not share any confidential information over this phone call. Login Credentials, PIN, card security code, or confirmation codes
