- Never entertain any suspicious emails or spam, especially when they ask you to download something, open something or click something.
- Always download apps from first-party sources or official app stores. By default Android will not allow for apps to be downloaded from any source other than the Google Play store; unless you know what you’re doing you should not change this setting.
- Always check the permissions an app asks for before granting it. If it’s too excessive, or if it places you in doubt, refuse.
- Install a security solution on your mobile device in order to safeguard against malware such as this.
