Japanese Android Developers Successfully Infected 270,000 Phones With Malware

Today Japanese police arrested five developers for embedding a virus into their Android apps. It's no secret that a lot of apps on Android are suspect and often scummy, but what is a surprise is how many people they fooled: according to Japanese police, who initially suspected only 90,000 infections, apparently these guys collected 10 million separate pieces of information from their series of apps. According to Google Play, some apps have been downloaded 270,000 times.
