Android Malware WindRelay Steals Credit Card Data

TL;DR. A new Android NFC relay malware, WindRelay, is actively used with SpyNote RAT to steal live credit card data and facilitate fraudulent loans. - Attackers impersonate bank employees, tricking victims into installing SpyNote RAT and granting Accessibility Service permissions. - WindRelay then converts the victim's phone into a contactless reader, relaying NFC payment data and PINs to attackers. - The malware combination allows for real-time fraud, bypassing typical modern Android malware defenses.
