Khabar Foori (Breaking News) Channel and malware distribution

⭕️ This is Dr. Mostafa Entezari, the manager of Breaking News (Khabar Foori) media (Telegram channel and news website and its advertising subset called Faratabliq). Let’s discover what’s going on in these greedy people’s filthy system in which they force people to join their desired channels via malware they distribute.

Help the lion cub!

He must learn how to become a real lion

That won’t be easy.. he must pass through many snaky animals

Help him

This malware that’s been in breaking news channel for over a year, has been transferred here directly from their channel as an example, the rest similar content and evidences of their fraudulence will be covered in this channel (in Persian).

We’ll see why are they distributing smartphone malware and ask who’s in charge of its supervision? Them having so much freedom to play with people wouldn’t be an insult to the law enforcement in that country?

⭕️ All these apps are designed for the sole purpose of infecting users’ smartphones and get installed without any notification or permission from the user so that they can abuse victims in any way hey desire, including forcefully subscribe users to Telegram channels and value added services which Bitban Lab has discovered 400 instances of it.

About 400 android games with malicious performance in inbound android markets have been identified by the Bitban team.

These programs attempt to install another software called “emulator” after installation which will be hidden and capable of performing following harmful tasks remotely:

Secret download of any other android app and display its install screen

Opening “Send SMS” page with predefined text and receiver number

Opening “Call” page with a number or USSD code

Display all kinds of advertisement dialog (even audio or video advertisements)

The 2nd and 3rd tools are designed to subscribe users to value added services.

Also most of these programs violate users’ privacy by collecting their locations and Google account IDs!

We recommend avoiding to install any game titled SEGA, Nintendo, Atari,… games which may need another program to run after installation. The 2nd program will be hidden and remains on the device after uninstalling the 1st program.

Unfortunately, these criminals are looking for a new way to deceive more victims every day in total security and peace, as you see some of those malware apps existed in their news channel for over a year and it’s not clear which institute or organization is in charge of handling these criminals.

The breaking news channel alone provides them with more that 10 million tomans of advertising income every day!

You need to install the emulator to run this game

⭕️ After installing fake games published by this group, victims receive a message for installing the emulator and after confirming it the malware will be installed on the phone behind the scenes!

From now on the victim is subscribed to these criminals’ advertisement network and he’ll be forcefully subscribed to value added services and telegram channels.

All these apps are connected with a domain called norooz99.com , let’s find out who are these people…
