THREAT ACTORS USE BETA APPS TO BYPASS MOBILE APP STORE SECURITY

Summary from the TLDR Cybersecurity newsletter

Cybercriminals are using maliciously crafted cryptocurrency investment apps as beta versions to steal cryptocurrency from mobile app stores. The malicious apps are submitted as betas, which are not subjected to a thorough code review process and are only superficially examined for safety. The FBI warns that the apps can be used to steal personally identifiable information, financial account access, and take over devices.
