"Android Police: A new Android malware is emptying bank accounts and wiping devices"
"Google is usually on its toes, keeping the Play Store free of nefarious apps and ensuring prompt delivery of Android security patches, but some attackers manage to stay ahead of the curve and still steal money or personal information from victims."
The article is actually kind of vague about whether this actually happens with app store apps.
But talk about declining trust, eh?
