    I cannot believe I was so stupid, this one really looked like a real link in an email I was half expecting

    I clicked through on my phone and got a "you have been phished" cracked screen up, I came out straight away, have changed my passwords etc

    What else can I do, I am raging with myself :mad:

    That sounds more like a prank rather than a malicious virus. I'd only start to get worried if some unsolicited text messages started coming in - horoscopes, racing tips etc. because they will be expensive.
