The app carries Blackrock malware which can gain illegal access to your WhatsApp, Facebook and other important apps. The cybercriminals are trying to dupe users to download the fake Clubhouse app so that they can steal users’ login information for a lot of online services.

It lures credentials from 458 apps - financial, cryptocurrency exchanges & wallets, social, IM and shopping apps. There is currently no official Clubhouse app for Android,” ESET research has posted on Twitter.More Related News
