Malvertising campaign pushes data-collecting VPN on iOS users

A malvertising campaign is targeting iOS devices with a VPN that doesnt hide the fact it collects large quantities of users information. The operation displays rogue ads on popular Torrent websites. If a user clicks on one of the rogue ads, the malvertising chain redirects them to a fake website that claims their device has suffered a virus infection. To help address the issues, the site provides a link to a program called My Mobile Secure The main reason? My Mobile Secure is linked by users’ emails to MobileXpression, a market firm which seeks to study web behavior by collecting users’ information.”]
