<div style="font-family:"segoe ui",arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Pokemon
Go has taken over the world in the space of a weekend. Through your
phone’s GPS, you can now capture Pokemon in the real world. But, due to
an oversight by the apps developers, Pokemon Go can also capture all the
private data linked to your Google account.<br><br>On sign up, you will
be asked to provide your Google login. Apps commonly use existing
credentials rather than creating their own to speed up installation and
make sign up easy. However, in the case of Pokemon GO, Niantic Labs, the
app’s developers, offer no clear limitation to what the app, or third
parties have access to or how this information will be used. Through
third party download sites, hackers are even gaining access through
malware attacks. Your private information is at risk.<br> <br><a href="http://blog.emsisoft.com/2016/07/12/pokemon-go-giving-hackers-direct-access-to-your-phone/">http://blog.emsisoft.com/2016/07/12/pokemon-go-giving-hackers-direct-access-to-your-phone/</a><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 27, 2016 at 3:57 PM, Rui A.
