Trend Micro has this article entitled Fake Voice Apps on Google Play, Botnet Likely in Development which I’ve read. There may be people who may be interested in this, because the apps which are out there could be of value if you want to use them. The problem is that there are apps that could be a problem, and thats what this post is covering that we’re linking here. There are apps like Google Voice that can allow you to use voice to call or hangouts for video etc. and even Skype is out there too. I’m not saying that every app is terrible, however, Android has had an opportunity to clean things up and better secure their store the best they can, but seeing this, I wonder if they’re doing enough. I don’t know this for sure, but this is something that we should wonder and ponder. Thoughts?
