App Stores are continuously replenished with useful and essential tools, and some of them do not work as advertised. On the good side of things, folks running stores such as Google Play are always on the lookout for rogue apps, and when they find them, they are removed from the Store. Users are also warned to get rid of them in an attempt to make them safe.

This time around, cybersecurity firm Evina has identified 25 apps that were stealing their users’ Facebook credentials.

The Google team has already deleted them, so if you still have them on your device, then you should erase them too. The apps serve many popular functions such as file management, changing wallpapers, or games.
