A dangerous new Android malware called "Albiriox" has surfaced, giving cybercriminals complete remote control over infected devices to drain bank accounts. Russian-speaking hackers launched this Malware-as-a-Service in September 2025, charging affiliates $650 monthly for access. The malware targets over 400 banking and cryptocurrency apps worldwide. It works by streaming victims' screens directly to attackers through VNC technology, allowing criminals to manually perform banking fraud while users remain unaware. This bypasses security measures like two-factor authentication. Albiriox spreads through fake apps disguised as legitimate services like "Penny Market," distributed via phishing SMS messages and fake Google Play Store pages. Once installed, it uses accessibility services for overlay attacks and keylogging while staying hidden from antivirus detection. **Source:** [Cybersecurity News](https://cybersecuritynews.com/albiriox-malware-attacking-android-users/)
