You might get in serious trouble while using your phone to watch pornography without knowing. Experts have revealed how and what precautionary measures you must take.
You can be at great risk if you keep using your phone to watch porn. According to a security researcher, more than 100 apps have also been developed to steal your data or money.
Dailystar reports that a new malware is being distributed by supposedly “free” porn apps – and mainly affects older Android devices, running KitKat or earlier specifically to steal your data and put you in trouble.
It is believed that Pervs across the world logging on to porn sites to view footage of three Leicester City footballer romping with Thai prostitutes might be at risk. The footage which has been viewed more than 140,000 times in the last 18 months has been rated as another risk for many.
According to Security researcher Alex Dubrovsky of Dell who revealed that lock-screen app spread via porn apps for Android could contain harmful malware that could give away your security data.
He said: “We have found over a 100 different apps that contain this malware and suspect that the authors behind the apps are gearing up for a much larger more deadly assault.
“This lock screen is spreading mainly via porn related apps.
“Based on some of the components it appears that his campaign is still in its early stages and will evolve over time.
“It is interesting to note that there is no demand for ransom of any kind, also the fact that the victim can come out of this view gives an indication that this mechanism might not be completely implemented.”
Many have now been warned to be careful of the type of apps they download on their phones especially when it comes to porn apps.
