Once the malware is installed, it silently waits in the background for the opportunity to make its move. When the user opens an app like Binance, the malware
creates an overlay that is placed on top of the legit app. As the user enters their credentials, the information is recorded and sent to the phishers.

Men, I would recommend a little bit how to minimize it all.
According an android platform is very easy malware or third-party apps different with iOS a bit difficult-it get in the appstore.
1. don't install other than the application of official from the developer.
2. don't root on android
3. don’t jailbrake on ios
4. don’t donwnload on third-party apps or beta version
5. don’t sharing contacts, GPS, and others
so we have to be careful
