At the same time, this case involved a wide range of cases, up to 3.3 million old machines were poisoned, including 5 million personal data.

After receiving it, they can charge for money. Some people use a large number of registered accounts in the app to earn money by brushing likes and traffic.
Even scarier is that Wu mentioned in his confession that in the next step, the company is even preparing to “enter” children’s phone watches.
Recently, the Xinchang County Court found that through these “virus-carrying” motherboards, Wu’s company illegally controlled more than 3.3 million elderly phones, obtained more than 5 million mobile phone verification codes and sold more than 7.9 million yuan in profit. Older people are found in 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions throughout the country.
