Android malware uses Google Talk to call Chinese numbers

Malwarebytes analyst Nathan Collier says a new form of Android malware is using Google Talk to call mysterious Chinese phone numbers. The malware Android/Trojan.Pawost infects a device disguised as a simple stopwatch app. Collier believes Pawost is a form of malware specific to Chinese users. He says Pawost can be terminated by uninstalling the offending app manually or with the help of a mobile anti-virus app. Users should always be aware of the permissions being granted before accepting the install.”]
