Quote:Cybercriminals using the Coronavirus outbreak to trick users into installing malicious corona virus-related apps.
In the current panic, situation users are most vulnerable to apps like Coronavirus Trackers, symptoms identification, maps, etc.
The app claims to have a real-time Coronavirus outbreak tracker available via an app download. Once the app installed in the front end it shows tracking and statistical information about COVID-19 including the heatmap.
