80 thousand fake pigs

To date, more than 80 thousand fake versions of Bad Piggies containing viruses have already been downloaded, according to Barracuda Networks. 

Not a day without Rovio. Yesterday we wrote about their unexpected alliance with LucasArts, today we return to their latest creation – the game Bad Piggies. 

It is not yet known how many Bad Piggies have been downloaded. And it is unlikely that we will know this figure if the management of the Finnish company does not like it. But it is known that fake versions of the game have been downloaded from Google Chrome over 80 thousand times.  

The most unpleasant thing is that when they are installed, a plugin is added to the browser that demonstrates additional advertising. By the way, even at the moment when this news was being prepared, several such malicious fakes still appeared in the Chrome Web Store, for example, Angry Birds Bad Piggies from the mysterious Playook.info .
