A fresh wave of cyberattacks is putting Android users at serious risk. A recent investigation by cybersecurity firm CRIL has revealed that over 20 fake crypto wallet apps have infiltrated the Google Play Store. These apps are designed to steal your sensitive financial data, particularly your wallet’s recovery phrases. If you have any of these apps installed, remove them now before it’s too late.


Phishing Scam Targets Android Users
Android users across India are the latest targets of a widespread phishing campaign. These deceptive apps, masquerading as crypto wallets, are stealing wallet recovery phrases—critical keys to accessing your cryptocurrency assets. Once stolen, your digital funds can be emptied in minutes.

Fake Crypto Wallets That Steal Your Keys

Apps like SushiSwap, Raydium, Suiet Wallet, and PancakeSwap are part of this malicious network. They prompt users to enter their 12-word recovery phrase under the pretext of setting up their wallet. In reality, this information is harvested by cybercriminals to hijack your crypto holdings.


The Trick Behind the Threat
These malicious apps are uploaded through developer accounts that previously published gaming or video-editing apps. They cleverly embed phishing links within their privacy policies, making them appear legitimate. The interface is often a near replica of genuine crypto apps, further fooling unsuspecting users.

Delete These Dangerous Apps Now


If you’ve downloaded any of the following apps, delete them immediately:


  • Suiet Wallet
  • BullX Crypto
  • SushiSwap
  • Raydium
  • Hyperliquid
  • OpenOcean Exchange
  • PancakeSwap
  • Meteora Exchange
  • Harvest Finance Blog

These are just some of the 20+ flagged apps currently under watch.

How to Stay Safe from Crypto App Scams


  • Stick to trusted apps: Only download crypto apps from verified developers.
  • Don’t share recovery phrases: Never enter your 12-word phrase unless you're on a secure, official platform.
  • Do your research: Check app reviews and cross-verify developer details before installing.

If you deal in crypto and use Android, double-check your apps right now. Your digital wallet could be just one fake app away from being drained. Stay alert, stay safe.
