@thomas Thanks for checking!
It also doesn't make it better that they do not tell us WHICH files are affected and WHY. Their console just gives a single example (the linked APK), and says "go figure yourself".
And isn't it funny that the APK triggering this insane BS is an APK downloader? What was that with "allowing alternative app stores" (even Droid-ify is blocked now)? And the crap with "developer registration"? One ring to rule them all?!?

@IzzyOnDroid @thomas Dunno if it is related, but it seems that besides Google, Ikarus is misdecting StreetMeasure APK from izzy as being infected by "Trojan-SMS.AndroidOS.FakeInst" e.g. I've downloaded de.westnordost.streetmeasure_7.apk from izzy, and it is exactly the same file as one downloaded ages ago from Google Play (with sha256sum 9711592efeab66fc47454a628abcb88d25356d24a80de34882b2ff4cd1f921af) and virustotal says this: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/9711592efeab66fc47454a628abcb88d25356d24a80de34882b2ff4cd1f921af
