Android users need to exercise some caution when downloading apps on video lucah gadis indonthe Google Play store.
Cyber security firm Trend Micro recently found 85 different apps for Android phones that are actually adware apps in disguise. These sneaky camera and game apps were downloaded more than 8 million times in total.
The apps, which have been removed from the Google Play store after Trend Micro shared its findings with Google, would push out screen-covering, unskippable ads over the phone's home screen, which is so obnoxious.
Not only that, if you realized the app was serving up these ads and didn't want it on your phone anymore, you'd have a hard time deleting it. After being downloaded, the apps would wait 30 minutes then create a shortcut of the app on the home screen and hide the real icon, so when you tried to delete it, it would just delete the shortcut and not the app itself. Devious.
For people who didn't successfully delete the apps, they would continuously push out these obnoxious ads every five minutes or so.
If you do find yourself with one of these apps installed, you can remove it by going to your phone's settings, selecting Apps, and then find it in your list of apps and uninstall it from there.

It pays to look at written reviews.
While the Google Play store does do some regulating on its own, it allows anyone to publish whatever apps they like on the store, and Google doesn't always catch mischievous apps.
