Criminals have developed a scam application that poses as a way to send MMS messages to loved ones and targets Russian mobile users.

In reality the supposed MMS application sends SMS messages to premium rate text messaging services in Russia. The malware comes in a downloadable file called "love_mms.rar" that includes a Java archive called "jimm2010.jar" and several Valentine’s Day themed pictures with Russian file names.
