Phone Hyjacked


Recommended Posts

My phone (Android 5.1.1, LG) got Hijacked one day a unknown person sent me a text commenting on my other texts not sure it she/he saw my whole cell or just texts. Each text came from a different phone no. I scanned with the free version, found nothing. From What I read Premium Does not prevent this type of attack, am I correct?

Thank you very much. That is a amazing program, it installed and I blocked some dangerous activities on my phone.
I was under the impression on a attack like this, that they were attacking the phone servers to fool it into believing he/she was me. To intercept my calls, texts etc. Do I have that wrong? Because I received a text from my cousin and immediately got a text from this unknown person commenting on my cousins text. The next text came from a different no.

Hi @metone,

I have never heard of such an attack.  I can see if there is anything suspicious on your device if you send an Apps Report.

To send an Apps Report with Malwarebytes for Android use the following instructions.

1.Open the Malwarebytes for Android app.

2.Tap the Menu icon.

3. Tap Your apps.

4. Tap three lines icon in upper right corner.

5. Tap Send to support

Choose an email app to send Apps Report.

Your email app will open with the Apps Report included. Send the Apps Report to create a ticket.

Private Message (PM) me the email used and/or the ticket number assigned.

OK, got on.. :) Yes once I texted a person on Craigslist (about a Hard Drive) got no reply then after that all sorts of calls, some from over seas.

One day I got a text from my cousin, right after this unknown person texted me commenting on my cousins text. Each text was from a different no. dont know if they saw every thing else on my phone or not. No other signs after that day.
I tried to send the report on my the app.(Megabyte) but my email said dont recognize device and wouldnt let it though, think I got it threw though after.
