The ‘Dialer’ virus installs a transparent icon – which can fool users into thinking an APP was recently in that place – like a ghost. If the person clicks that ghost icon it vanishes completely. It vanishes from the start screen but at the same time it’s hiding inside your mobile device.
Here’s the worst part: It’s a Trojan that records all operations from that device. This enables it to steal your identity, passwords, and any other personal information.
‘Dialer’ can also monitor, steal and transmit user information without notice. It also routinely uploads mobile usage and device identification data to some corner of the dark cloud.
And, it makes its money by making multiple, long-distance calls to paid numbers – which are usually located in Central and South American countries. When it’s finished with the call it deletes the call from the call record. So, unless you’re really observant, you won’t know it’s making those calls. In general, you have to get ready for a GIANT mobile bill.
