Where do you go for your Android Horror needs?

Hopefully not to the popular game Scary Granny.

Apparently this game does not install anything malicious the first day or 2 but after a couple of days starts doing some “Odd” things to your device.

“The application uses a time-release functionality – so malicious behavior is not apparent immediately, perhaps to avoid raising suspicion. In some cases during our testing, the app would function for two days before the malicious activity was initiated. The app also targets victims depending on the operating system version their device is running. In our testing, we discovered that if the game is played on a device with the latest Android OS, it doesn’t exhibit malicious behavior, but on older versions it does.”Wandera

Be careful citizens and keep up the patchin!
