It still needs a gullible user to change their settings for this to work; not much to worry about here.
And not from the play store or official bank site.
If you install an APK from unreliable source you should treat your phone and account as corrupted.
It's funny imagining people saying this for anything but a phone. "You can only download from the Microsoft store or you should consider your device corrupted." Take caution, but you don't need to rely on daddy Google alone.
not funny anymore. Banks and regulatory are doing this in some countries. Their app just refuses to open if users install any app outside of Google Play Stores.
