In summary, the person claims that they took a photo of a ghost with their new phone, and that the photo appears to be real. However, they do not believe that it was faked by the photographer.

What I learn now is that those with those "ghost" overlap in their cellfone picture don't want to share the picture in the internet or their facebook because they want to "respect the dead". So this cell virus is prevented from being addressed by anti-virus company and is effectively being used to scare people. What happen in our case is that rivals of real estate lessors in other buildings want to scare the tenants of a new building into thinking the building is inhabited with ghosts so the tenants would leave and transfer to their own so they planted the virus in one of the tenant cellfone.

Can anyone point me to any people packed anti-virus forum or newsgroup so I can spread the news about the new "ghost" cell virus being spread and used as tactics to scare and influence people over the long term? Our debunking it must reach into those people of positions (anti-virus software group) to address the virus problem.

Oh my god, those things are silly. So basically it "contacts ghosts and the iphone tells you something about the ghost". So it actually spews out random words like "railroad", "Louis", "accident".

The true believers are already claiming that it actually works: "It said accident and arm, and indeed a few years ago my arm was broken."

Sigh :frown:

The "ghost girl" virus app we have been analyzing are more sophisticated.. because it added the "ghost" picture to the image right there when any picture is taken and before saving to cam memory. It works on the fly and this can deceive even the owner of the camera phone. The iphone app is just a courser app compare to it. If anyone has encountered this trojan horse kind of virus app, please share it so we can put it to the attention of the public and avoid unnecessary alarm and shock or even heart attack for some who encounter the picture in their phone..

I have fixed your statement, in case there is any confusion.

There is no evidence of any virus at all. This is a hypothesis, created right here, as a possible explanation.
