After a widespread fraud scam, Google scraps 22 of its Android applications.
The so-called 'RuFraud' applications were found to contain fraudulent software posing as a third-party which prompted users to send premium text messages.
The sender would be tricked into sending an SMS message costing about £3 while believing that they were actually downloading a game or an application.
San-Francisco-based security firm Lookout believes the attempt originated from Russia.
