Urgent warning for Android users over bug that can empty your bank account

Android owners who use the Chrome app for browsing online have been warned about a new type of malware that could empty their bank accounts.

The new bug, called Brokewell, is disguised as an update for the app. However, when downloaded, it allows cybercriminals to not only access personal data, but also take over the entire phone – potentially allowing them access to banking apps.
