McAfee, which develops software related to software security, discovered a new ad virus. According to the information shared by the company, this virus has infected more than 35 million Android phones worldwide. Here are the details!
“HiddenAds” virus found in 38 games!
According to the report published by the company’s security unit, this virus infects phones through 38 popular games published in the Play Store. Used by hackers to generate illegal income, this virus constantly plays ads in the background.
Of course, the virus playing ads in the background also reduces the performance of the phone. According to the information in the report, the HiddenAds virus infects the phone through mobile fake versions of the Minecraft game developed by Mojang.
