Google has recently flagged several apps made by a popular Chinese e-commerce giant, Pinduoduo, as malware. 

The apps contained malware designed to monitor users and exploit several zero-day vulnerabilities. Google has suspended Pinduoduo’s official app on the Play Store for security concerns while they continue their investigation.
