There are at least 17 Trojan apps disguised as games available on the Google Play store, according to digital security firm Avast.
The apps are part of the HiddenAds family, a Trojan disguised as a safe and useful application that instead serves intrusive ads outside the app.
Avast previously identified and reported 47 of these gaming apps to Google, which have been downloaded over 15 million times collectively.
