Once installed, these apps have the ability to carry out malicious tasks like financial fraud, data theft, and unauthorised access to personal information.
A number of harmful apps that target Android users in Nigeria have recently been discovered by the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA).
These applications are made with the intention of breaking into devices, stealing private data, and violating user privacy.
People should always be on the lookout for potential risks and remain attentive as fraudsters become more skilled. Malicious applications can pose as trustworthy programmes and frequently entice gullible users to download them by promising alluring features or services. Once installed, these apps have the ability to carry out malicious tasks like financial fraud, data theft, and unauthorised access to personal information.
Nigerian Android users should steer clear of four extremely dangerous apps, according to a recent announcement from NITDA. Nigerians may safeguard their devices and personal information from cyberattacks by being aware of these hazards and using safe mobile practices. The four apps listed below are those that the NITDA claims are known to contain malware.
1. TikToks
2. Weapons
3. Crazy Game
4. Sexy Videos
