Beware of fake Indeed interview apps used to install spyware
Scammers are using fake Android "interview" apps to target job seekers on platforms like Indeed. These malicious apps impersonate legitimate tools, establishing a VPN connection and running spyware identified as Trojan.Droppers. Once installed, the malware can take over the device and even prevent users from uninstalling the malicious app.
