⚠️ Mobile security risk: New Android malware "SuperCard X" enables contactless payment fraud via NFC relay attacks 📱💳

Here’s how it works:
🔹 Victims are socially engineered through fake bank alerts (smishing + calls)
🔹 Tricked into installing a rogue app posing as “security software”
🔹 NFC data is intercepted from real debit/credit cards
🔹 Attackers relay stolen credentials to PoS terminals and ATMs for fraudulent cashouts

Why it matters:
• Attackers no longer need stolen physical cards — just proximity + deception
• Banking customers, payment providers, and card issuers are all at risk
• Google is working on Android protections — but vigilance is key now

🛡️ Tip: Always scrutinize app installs, verify messages before acting, and keep Google Play Protect enabled.

The #USTreasury data has been compromised (if not, it's pretty damn close) so here's a #PSA:

FREEZE YOUR #CREDIT REPORTS.

NOW.

The #Treasury data is either going to be sold to thieves or used to f people over because that's what Those People do.

Lock your credit down before you get calls from collection agencies wondering why you haven't made any payments on [something] you didn't know you bought. If your credit can't be freely checked, they can't open new lines of credit to buy swastikas on Etsy or whatever the f they buy.
