In fairness to Mashable, this isn't their fault. The people that made the report didn't make the list public.

Then why is this the subtitle:

The apps identified have since been removed from Google Play, but make sure you didn't install one.

Because tech journalism is trash on the best days, and these android malapps articles only ever amount to blogspam to make you nervous. I don't think I've seen more than a handful of these articles that actually warns you about the actual apps instead of just talking about the problem without relevant specifics.
