I read somewhere that if you send an sms filled with "...." to a nokia 5110 it would collapse... haven't tried it on someone though =)

But there is an sms-virus.. at least here in sweden.
It goes a little something like this:
"Hejsan, jag är ett norskt virus. Vi är inte särskillt tekniska, så var vänlig och skicka detta till alla i din adressbok, radera sedan allt i mobilen."

I've already gotten it twice.. and it's a pain in the a**.
It's a dreadful virus..

@ElGato
I don't know what the message says, but it sounds like SMS spam, not a virus. There is a big difference!

@bingo: can you read ?????

Quote:
Well you receive a sms from proximus ( it's a number of proximus but it's not proximus ) it ask you to reply to the message because of testing something ( don't remember all the thing ), you see that it is from proximus so you think that it's secure and that you can trust the message, you reply to the message and ........... voila say goodbye too your money



Proximus in one of our operator !!!!!! Trust me, it's not "spam", allways says that it's spam well this time it is not !!!!!

Hehe.. it's not spam.. it's a virus!
I'll translate it..

"Hejsan, jag är ett norskt virus. Vi är inte särskillt tekniska, så var vänlig och skicka detta till alla i din adressbok, radera sedan allt i mobilen."

means..

"Hi, I'm a norwegian virus. We're not very technical, so please send this message to everyone in your phonebook, then delete everything in youre phone"

;P

Oh btw if there's anyone who still thinks you can't get a virus on your phone, and your phone takes wap or email, give me your # and model i'll write one and screw round with your phone. Any takers?

go search on esato there was a discotion some time ago, there are 2 viruses confiremd. but don't think some one will tell you how to do it, because you can make some phones work badly in no time.
