I was looking through the Aarki offers on the Swagbucks Mobile app and it had an offer for 10-11 SB to install the Walgreens app. I went to install it and it redirected me to some kind of contest, not the app store, so I was going to back out. I used the back arrow button to back out and after a few auto redirects something called PornDroid came up and the "choose browser" window popped up. I don't have a problem with the porn, but some of this looked like it was illegal to have (kids/animals). Aarki wouldn't let me back out completely, so I restarted the phone.
I sent a support ticket to Swagbucks, but I'm not sure what they'll do. I only use this phone for SB mobile and to install apps for SB so it's the only way it would have gotten on there.
Anyone else have this happen? I did a search and it looks like PornDroid is actually some kind of ransomware app,. I've used the Aarki offers before to install apps w/o issue, but now the links seem to go to something besides the correct offer.
