I have developed a flappybird clone.
I.. modded.. the app.
It now secretly downloads all of the phones pictures to my server when the game is running.
the developer said in the post.
But most of the time users dont pay attention to these permissions and sets all permissions to yes.
The hackers have also targeted users search habits, it seems.
These keywords may have been used by the hackers to get the victims to installing their cloned App.
The malware then was used to send smss from victims mobile to premium numbers.
The original Flappy Bird Game was a huge hit.
Dong Nguyen, its developer, pulled the app off from the stores.
