When I switched my phone on this morning, I had a red star with white outline icon in my notifications area. Dragged it down and it said "you have win an iPad 2. Click here etc etc". So clearly spam of some kind, but how did it get there? Obviously had emails and pop ups like this but this is a new one on me.
I checked my running tasks and nothing obvious - Facebook, Mail, Ebay.
I do have an AV app on my phone.
Anyone seen this kind of thing before?
