Although not a big secuirty risk more like something interesting about what human mind viruses can do ot a person once they recieve a message. On friday pretty much all hell broke loose in Pakistan when people start recieving, hear, readying about a message that a Virus sen through a mobile phone will kill people and so every mobile user in Pakinstan went into a craze and cllaed their providers to see whats going on.

The message alos mention that 20 people have died so far, of course they make mention about the movie "The Ring" in which once a person watched this killer movie they had 7 days before they die. Also heres the other easo nwhy everyone went into a panic, there are more than 52 million mobile users among 160 million people in Pakistan, so that would be the reason why everyone would go into a panic.

Even mosques start telling everyone about it and thus this news article is in exanple of a human mind virus in which one person tells someone else and that person tells 2 other people and so on and so forth.
