As far as is known, this is not malware intended to steal user data.  It is a "click" type, which means that it constantly performs remote requests and clicks on pages and ads that reach the attacker.







Websites visited are received remotely and completely silently.  Browsing and clicking actions also occur in the background, where the user has no visibility or control over these actions performed by the malware.

In these cases, the biggest problem with this malware is not the information it has access to, but rather the resources it consumes.  By carrying out its actions, it generates a lot of network traffic and the data associated with it.  There are still other points that are consumed in these operations.
Again, as in all cases of malware and other threats, these apps should be removed from the smartphone immediately.  You also have to be very careful with the apps you choose and avoid those that promise too much.
