Facebook password stealing Android applications

 

These applications steal your Facebook account ID and password 

Silicon Valley: Android users should not use these applications as these apps steal the login and password of your Facebook account.

Doctor Web, a mobile phone and computer malware tracking website, has identified a mobile application that steals your Facebook account login details and password information once installed on a mobile phone.

The application was available on the Google Play Store some time ago. More than 15 million of these applications, including Trojan Stealers in the form of harmless software, have been installed, but Google has removed these applications from the Copley Stores after reports from security experts.

These Trojan apps use special mechanisms to fool their victims. After the necessary settings, it displays the actual web address of Facebook https://www.facebook.com/login.php in the web view and asks the user to enter his user ID and password. They then load JavaScript on the same web view and then use the hack script directly to hijack the entered login information.

These Trojan apps steal the login and password and transfer it to the hacker's server using the JavaScript interface method provided by JavaScript. These applications also steal cookies from the current authorization session and send them to cyber criminals.

Below are details of some of the most important and popular Trojan applications.
