>mobile phone displays (XALAN) on the screen don't answer the call, END
>THE CALL IMMEDIATELY.
>
>If you answer the call, your phone will be infected by a virus. This
>virus will erase all IMEI and IMSI information from both your phone
>and your SIM card, which will make your phone unable to connect with
>the telephone network. You will have to buy a new phone.
>
>This information has been confirmed by both Motorola and Nokia. There
