There are a lot of apps and games available in the Google Play Store. However, there also is the risk of unknowingly downloading a malicious app on your device. Google removes various apps and games from the Play Store often for disruptive ad policies or malware. And according to a recent research report, 6 new apps have been discovered that are potential carriers of the malicious “Joker” malware.
So, make sure to avoid these six apps while you are browsing through the Play Store.
- Safety AppLock (10,000+ downloads)
- Convenient Scanner 2 (100,000+ downloads)
- Push Message – Text & SMS (10,000+ downloads)
- Emoji Wallpaper (10,000+ downloads)
- Separate Doc Scanner (50,000+ downloads)
- Fingetip GameBox (1000+ downloads)
Now, there is a high chance that Google already removed these apps from its store. I tried to find a few of these in the Play Store but could not.
