A fake app masquerading as Clubhouse is installing harmful malware on the user's phone.

The clubhouse app has gotten increasingly popular across the globe. The audio-only app has garnered over 13 million downloads so far. However, now a fake app masquerading as Clubhouse is installing harmful malware on the user's phone. The fake app looks identical to the original Clubhouse and can easily trick users to download it. The app carries Blackrock malware which can gain illegal access to your WhatsApp, Facebook and other important apps. The cybercriminals are trying to dupe users to download the fake Clubhouse app so that they can steal users’ login information for a lot of online services. As per ESET researcher Lukas Stefanko's findings, the app carrying the dangerous malware has the look and feel of the invitation-only audio chat app, Clubhouse. “Malicious web claiming to offer #Clubhouse for Android spreads banking trojan Blackrock. It lures credentials from 458 apps - financial, cryptocurrency exchanges & wallets, social, IM and shopping apps. There is currently no official Clubhouse app for Android,” ESET research has posted on Twitter.
