The Trojan:Android/Funtasy is a trojan variant that affects
the Android devices and, silently subscribes the victim’s device to a premium
rate SMS service. Technically, this trojan impersonates itself as a useful
Android app, which you can use to remote-control the television. However, it
actually doesn’t have any TV-remote functionality. Instead it simply checks the
device to find out if the device is registered to Spanish or Australian mobile
networks. If it finds one, then it covertly subscribes the users to
Premium-Rate SMS Service.
Subscribing to premium rate SMS service doesn’t stop the
working of your Android device. It however, results in increased phone bill.
Therefore just like every other malware app and, this trojan has to be removed
immediately. However, the good news is this that this malware app has been
removed from Google Play Store (where it was previously available). But, there
are still ways that the gullible user’s device gets infected. It is likely that
this trojan app is still available in third-party Android app store.
So if you download apps from third-party app store, then you
have to stay careful. Installing the F-Secure Mobile Antivirus can provide you
protection against all malware and trojan variants, including
Trojan:Android/Funtasy as well. Simply install and start using it to stay
protected. At the meantime, if you get issues with the F-Secure app, then
dialing F-Secure tech support number and availing expert help is the best thing to do.
