Andriod Smishing attack!

Jon_01

I've just had a security alert on my LG G3.

It's reporting smishingexploit.A, which I find is something connected to sms fishing attacks.

I've found nothing to remove it, so I've deleted every message, and it's still reported as found.

So I've just competed a full factory reset, reload just the security app (Trustgo) and it's still there !!!

How is this thing getting past a reset and how do I get rid of it?

Thanks

See this post, looks like it could be a false positive:

I'd suggest trying another security app and see what that says, uninstall trustgo first, try Avast.

You do not need antivirus software on your phone.

You are bright enough not to reply to a text asking for your bank details I presume ??

Delete this bloatware and get on with your life
