Check Point Discovers Mobile Crypto Drainer App on Google Play Store: $70K Stolen From 10,000 Users

Check Point Research (CPR) has uncovered a new threat: a mobile crypto drainer app found on Google Play. This app, deceptively posing as the legitimate WalletConnect tool, exploited the growing popularity of digital assets and targeted users directly on their mobile devices. Over five months, it achieved more than 10,000 downloads and stole around $70,000 from unsuspecting victims. The researchers say this marks the first time ever a drainer has exclusively targeted mobile device users, leveraging advanced social engineering tactics and sophisticated evasion techniques to avoid detection. The discovery underscores the critical need for advanced security measures to protect digital assets in the rapidly evolving landscape of decentralized finance.
