Bubble Tea app scam how it works.... - sgbuffett - 03-07-2023
Here is the explanation of the scam.
You scan a QR code it takes you to a site to download an app to fill survey to get free bubble tea. After that the scammer empties your bank account.
The video miss out one part of the explanation which is how the scammer get your OTP after getting your userid and password by logging your keystroke and sending back to scammer.
When you install the app, it will ask for permission to read sms. Most people will just "allow" once the app installed it can read your incoming sms. The OTP sms is read by the app.
All such scams would have been prevented if we were still using the hardware token.
