possible? Yes, it is. To understand, just think of your mobile as a computer. Now
the mobile phone manufacturers have also included WI-Fi facility in it, which
is what makes it more prone to mobile viruses.

have seen a suspicious looking email in your inbox. Actually, these fishy
emails are a part of virus scam. Viruses are often sent to thousands of email
addresses under the guise of a real company that you might have had contact
with, such as eBay, PayPal, UPS, FedEx, DHL, or other commonly used service
providers.
