SMS-virus attacks Ukrainian users‘ smartphones. Only devices, based on Android platform are under thread.
Many owners of smartphones, Ukrainian mobile operators subscribers became victims of SMS-virus. It attacks in such a way that all money is drawn from account, calls are locked, and thus a virus sends messages with the harmful program link to all contacts in the phone book.
Having received the message from known or unknown number, the subscriber follows the link and automatically catches Trojan.
After installation, the virus sends information on the victim‘s device, such as IMEI, IMSI, owner‘s number, his location, the version of OS, the model of smartphone, the quantity of money on the account and other information to the server of attackers. Besides, Trojan analyzes service messages on balance replenishment for a certain sum. The harmful program checks all messages in Russian on existence of such words as "topped up" and “balance”.
All incoming calls are blocked and reset, so it becomes impossible to warn the others about mailing of harmful SMS.
But if your smartphone was infected then you have to define location of the infected file and delete it.
