ESET's Robert Lipovsky says the Cowboy Adventure game and Jump Chess before being removed from Google Play for Facebook credentials have been downloaded by users of the service a million times.

The scammers had apparently created a legitimate game by copying popular titles, adding malicious code that passed out Facebok's passwords, from phishing websites that opened through malicious games.

Lipovsky Reported that "… although the number of potential victims was one million, there were many who were not deceived by the fraud."

"Our analysis of these malicious games showed that the apps were written in C# and used Mono .

“The phishing code is located inside TinkerAccountLibrary.dll. The application communicates with the administration and control server via HTTPS and the address to which it sends the credentials it collects, loads them dynamically on the server. "
