People at Zscalar Research have found out that, a chinese porn site has been masquerading, and in reality is making your phone infected with malware.
When you visit the page, and try to play a video, the website asks you to download a piece of software to view the video, which in reality is a trojan.
The trojan installs itself in your phone and becomes a Broadcast Receiver, and intercepts all the SMS communications that happen on your phone. This is used by hackers to do fraudulent transactions on affected phones.
The payload filename is dynamically generated by the website so as no blacklisting of the malicious malware can be done.
