Original release date: June 11, 2020

The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) has released an alert warning consumers of cyber risks associated with mobile banking apps. As more consumers rely on mobile apps for banking, malicious cyber actors are likely to increasingly target them with app-based banking Trojans and fake banking apps.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) encourages mobile banking app users to review IC3’s Alert and CISA’s Tip on Privacy and Mobile Device Apps for more information on protecting sensitive information. If you believe you are a victim of cybercrime, file a complaint with IC3 at www.ic3.gov.
