Researchers at Kaspersky Lab have discovered the first Android Malware which sends text messages to premium rate numbers.

But, before you get all excited, there are a few stipulations to how this malware is received. The app masks itself as a media player and is NOT found in the app store. The only way a person is to get the malware is to install the untrusted app from a website.

On top of that, the user is told which permissions this media player has before the install. The app is granted permission to send text messages upon install.

The good part for USA consumers is that this malware only affects those in Russia on the Russia Networks.
