There is a trojan virus that has been surfing Android phones for a really long time and it has deployed a new method to steal users data by masking itself as the Uber app. It can even go as far as pulling pages from the app to not arouse suspicion.
The virus is called Fakeapp and according to Symantec, who discovered the virus mentions that it will fool you into typing your phone number and password to which it will send the details to a remote server where hackers can sell the information. It has the ability to load up the map page where you will enter your current location and destination which will actually hail a car to pick you up. It does this by deep linking to a URL in the official app which brings you to the Request Ride page.
