ZNFC

ZNFC is an NFC relay malware family associated with Android tap-to-pay fraud, also described in the context of “Ghost Tap” activity. It was documented in the cybersecurity community in February 2025 and is listed alongside related families including NGate, SuperCard X, and PhantomCard. Reporting cited in the content links this broader class of NFC-enabled Android malware to advertisements in Chinese cybercrime communities on Telegram and to fraudulent point-of-sale transactions, with Group-IB reporting at least $355,000 in illegitimate transactions from one POS vendor during November 2024 through August 2025. High-confidence details specific to ZNFC beyond its classification as an NFC relay/tap-to-pay malware family and its appearance in that 2025 timeline are not provided in the content.
