EN: Beware! SMS Trojan for Android is out there
The first virus App that causes trouble for Android OS smartphones has been detected by the security software company Kaspersky Lab. The software is disguised as a "harmless media player application" but, once installed, begins sending SMS messages to premium-rate numbers without the owner's knowledge or consent.
"The first malicious program classified as a Trojan-SMS has been detected for smartphones running on Google's Android operating system," announced officially Kaspersky Lab. The virus has already infected a number of mobile devices. Rumors says that the firs infected ones are located in Russia, so there is no threat still for the other countries, but beware anyway. The distance for Apps do not mean anything when it is Internet accessible.
