Specialists from the company F6 have discovered a new malicious version of the legitimate application NFCGate. Instead of capturing the NFC data from the user's card, cybercriminals create a clone of their own card on the victim's Android device. When the victim attempts to deposit money into their account via an ATM, the entire amount is transferred to the dropper's card.
