Researchers
say all signs point to the Chinese government
A
fake smartphone app is being used to remotely monitor pro-democracy protesters
in Hong Kong, according to a report from the New York Times.
Researchers from Lacoon Mobile Security say the phishing scam is spreading
across the messaging application WhatsApp, through texts that read: "Check
out this Android app designed by Code4HK for the coordination of OCCUPY
CENTRAL!", along with a link to download software.
