Face-Snatching GoldPickaxe Trojan: The Deepfake Threat to Mobile Banking Security

Facing a new threat, the GoldPickaxe trojan is swiping more than swipes—it’s after your face! This high-tech pickpocket is hacking its way into bank accounts with deepfake wizardry. Watch out, Thailand and Vietnam, your selfies are the new gold.

Hot Take:

Imagine a world where your face is the key to your treasure chest, and then comes along GoldPickaxe, the digital Robin Hood's less altruistic cousin, picking that lock with a smirk. This new mobile trojan isn't just after your selfies; it's here to deepfake its way into your bank account. And if you thought your iPhone was your armored knight against malware, think again. GoldPickaxe is playing the field, and it's looking like iOS users are not sitting on the bench this time.
