BankBot-YNRK and DeliveryRAT: Because Apparently Stealing Your Sh*t Is Still a Growth Industry

Oh great, another f*cking batch of Android malware doing the digital equivalent of rummaging through your underwear drawer. The cyber geniuses over at some threat research lab (who probably haven’t slept since 2019) have uncovered two delightful little bastards—BankBot-YNRK and DeliveryRAT—running wild in the Android ecosystem like teenagers with stolen credit cards.

BankBot-YNRK is basically your nightmare banking app come true. It slithers onto your phone disguised as something harmless and then proceeds to nick your financial details faster than you can say “two-factor authentication.” Keylogging? Check. Phishing overlays? Check. Remote access so crooks can joyride through your account while you’re binge-watching? Oh hell yes.

Then there’s DeliveryRAT—because apparently people still click “track your parcel” links from mystery texts. It’s a full-on spying pain in the arse, snooping through your messages, calls, and maybe even your dodgy late-night browsing habits. The malware gangs behind these pieces of sh*t are clearly having a field day, weaving together smishing, fake apps, and remote-control nastiness into one glorious cyber dumpster fire.

So what can you do? Don’t download random apps, don’t trust links from “delivery services” you never used, and maybe install an actual security app instead of another goddamn wallpaper generator. But let’s be honest—half of you won’t. Then you’ll cry on Reddit about your bank draining itself. Classic.

Reminds me of the time a user complained their “VPN app” was draining their battery. Turned out it was actually a botnet client farming crypto for someone in Siberia. I told them to charge their phone in the microwave to “reset the encryption.” Problem solved.
