Sex sells, and nowhere is that more true than the Chinese mobile landscape. Porn-themed malware has been hitting Android users in China, Japan, and Taiwan in recent weeks.
These malicious apps are distributed via SEO-optimized fake websites, with keywords targeting hot scandals and affairs used. These sites pretend to be porn video websites, and all lead to various malicious apps being downloaded. The use of adult-themed content echoes the one-click billing fraud app we’ve covered a few years back.
