Mobile banking trojans are a type of malware that targets smartphones and tablets to steal your financial information. They can lurk in seemingly harmless apps or spread through phishing campaigns.
Once installed, they can steal your login credentials, bypass two-factor authentication, and even initiate unauthorized transactions and steal money from you along the way.
Here’s what you can do to protect yourself:
- Download apps only from trusted sources like the official app store for your device.
- Be cautious of clicking links in emails or text messages, even if they appear to be from your bank.
- Enable strong passwords and two-factor authentication on your banking apps.
- Install a reputable mobile security solution and keep it updated.
- Stay informed about the latest banking scams and malware threats.
By following these steps, you can help keep your mobile banking safe and secure.
