Hoax says: 'ICE is a hoax'
This is sick.
Remember the advice to store a next of kin contact in your mobile phone under 'ICE' (=In Case of Emergency')?
It is a genuine initiative launched by the Anglian Ambulance NHS Trust, and yet somebody has maliciously circulated the news that it would open the door to some sort of mobile phone virus which accesses your address book and drains pay-as-you-go phones of its credits (and how exactly would that work?)
The only viral behaviour was the speed at which the sound piece of advice circulated (at least judging by my email inbox), possibly fuelled by the London bomb attacks on 7 July.
