Nokia's Series 60 smartphones are currently under intense attack
Only then, when the mobile phone started to have unusual expressions as if it was self-thinking, did the user really realize what was going on with his beloved 'cricket'.
Perhaps the biggest impact the Trojan has on mobile phones is that it immediately sends SMS messages to other phone numbers. With the price of each SMS up to 1 to 10 USD, the 'victim' mobile bill will increase significantly. Imagine having a program in your mobile every few minutes automatically sending such messages continuously, every month you will have to pay the 'terrible' bills!
This is not the first time Nokia's 60 series phones have been attacked by viruses. With most of the previous Trojans, this company has overcome it by giving security updates for mobile.
There is an effective way to prevent Trojan-SMS.Symb.OS.Viever infection from being mentioned. All people can do now is to be absolutely alert when installing a new video or an encoded software. Perhaps in the near future, a real solution to this problem can be developed.
