The so-called rogue mobile APP refers to an APP that is installed and run on the user’s mobile phone without explicitly prompting the user or without the user’s permission, infringing on the user’s legitimate rights and interests. It has the following characteristics:

1. Forced installation.

2. Difficult to uninstall.

3. Browser hijacking.

4. Advertisements pop up.

5. Malicious collection of user information.

6. Malicious uninstallation.

7. Malicious bundling.

8. Other malicious behaviors that infringe on users’ rights to know and choose.

Currently, the most common and most secretive form of mobile phone rogue APPs is disguised as mobile phone cleaning, free WIFI and other software.

These two types of apps target users’ needs to clean their phones, connect to WIFI, etc., defraud users of their phone permissions, and achieve the ultimate goal of creating various fancy pop-up advertisements.

Some rogue APPs even disguise their icons as transparent, or set the software name to empty, in order not to be discovered and uninstalled - making them "invisible" directly on the phone!

The dangers of rogue APPs

Rogue APPs are difficult to uninstall, are highly concealed, have constant pop-ups, and consume system resources, bringing great inconvenience to mobile phone users, especially middle-aged and elderly users!

These rogue APPs go to great lengths. In addition to putting ads on your phone, they also have other illegal motives:

01

The background collects user information for profit and infringes upon citizens’ personal information!

"lies dead" in the background of the mobile phone every day without the user's knowledge, earning traffic fees!

03

pops up malicious fraud, pornographic and obscene information, and provides traffic diversion services for gambling websites, fake financial management, illegal lending, naked chat, etc.

Public security organs will continue to intensify their crackdowns on various criminal gangs that use the banner of technology companies
