This post is directed to all Android users because it concerns all of you. There is a latest virus in town that can completely kill your Android phone permanently. It’s call auto root.
Auto-rooting adware is a worrying development in the Android ecosystem in which malware roots the device automatically after the user installs it, embeds itself as a system application, and becomes nearly impossible to remove.

To make matter worst, The researchers have found more than 20,000 samples of trojanized apps masquerading itself legitimately in top applications, including Candy Crush, Facebook, GoogleNow, NYTimes, Okta, Snapchat, Twitter, WhatsApp, and many others.
To add more salt to injury, the report says that these virus cannot be uninstalled or removed. The owner might have to end up buying another device entirely. Even Factory reset cannot remove it. A guy on Nairaland is already facing this condition.
My 1 cent advice
Don’t install applications from unknown source you don’t trust. Always installs apps from Google Play store or else be ready to kiss your customize android device goodbye.
