Remove these 20 malicious apps from your smartphone immediately

Android users need to immediately remove these 20 malicious applications from their smartphones if they don't want bad guys to steal all their assets.

Security researchers have issued an urgent warning about 20 malicious apps that have successfully bypassed the Google Play Store's censorship system. These malicious apps are impersonating popular cryptocurrency wallet services to steal all of users' assets.

Fake Malicious Apps Are Hijacking Cryptocurrency Wallets

The malicious app asks users to enter or recover their wallet by entering a 12-word mnemonic/recovery phrase. This is the key to the cryptocurrency wallet. Anyone who has this phrase will have full access and can transfer all the assets in the wallet. As soon as the user enters this key phrase into the fake app, they have literally given all their money to the bad guys.

Cyble Research and Intelligence Labs (CRIL) has published a detailed list of 20 malicious applications along with unique Package names so that users can accurately identify and remove them. Specifically as follows:

• Pancake Swap (co.median.android.pkmxaj)
• Suiet Wallet (co.median.android.ljqjry)
• Hyperliquid (co.median.android.jroylx)
• Raydium (co.median.android.yakmje)
• Hyperliquid (co.median.android.aaxblp)
• BullX Crypto (co.median.android.ozjwka)
• OpenOcean Exchange (co.median.android.ozjjkx)
• Suiet Wallet (co.median.android.mpeaaw)
• Meteora Exchange (co.median.android.kbxqaj)
• Raydium (co.median.android.epwzyq)
• SushiSwap (co.median.android.pkezyz)
• Raydium (co.median.android.pkzylr)
• SushiSwap (co.median.android.brlljb)
• Hyperliquid (co.median.android.djerqq)
• Suiet Wallet (co.median.android.epeall)
• BullX Crypto (co.median.android.braqdy)
• Harvest Finance blog (co.median.android.ljmeob)
• Pancake Swap (co.median.android.djrdyk)
• Hyperliquid (co.median.android.epbdbn)
• Suiet Wallet (co.median.android.noxmdz)

There will be some duplicate malicious apps in the list above because many apps are impersonating the same app or sharing the same name, thus masquerading as legitimate apps. The most obvious way to differentiate them is based on their Package name.
