Another day, another Android app scare. This time, the app in question isn't a Russian-created Trojan that drains bank accounts but rather an innocent-looking clone of the "Snake" game called "Tap Snake." However, Tap Snake isn't just a game. It's actually client software for a commercial spying application called GPS Spy.
Used in combination with Tap Snake, GPS Spy can monitor the physical location of the mobile phone with the game installed.
Updated with Google's comment, see bottom of post.
Not A Major Threat
As scary as it sounds - mobile spyware! - the threat isn't as bad as it seems, say security researchers.
