New 'Massiv' Android banking malware poses as an IPTV app

A new Android banking malware, which researchers named Massiv, is posing as an IPTV app to steal digital identities and access online banking accounts. The malware relies on screen overlays and keylogging to obtain sensitive data and can take remote control of a compromised device. In a campaign observed by researchers at fraud detection and mobile threat intelligence company ThreatFabric, Massiv targeted a Portuguese government app that connects with Chave Móvel Digital - Portugal’s digital authentication and signature system.
