Identity And Data Theft Through Mobile Browsing by JamessssO(m): 10:09pm On Jul 01, 2013
I visited a christian online website a few days ago and since then my phone has been having network problem and almost all my data(important documents+personal videos and pictures) have been deleted/missing. Bear in mind that my phone was with me through out so nobody else had access to my phone but me.

Is it possible that the website owner deleted/stole my data? almost all the data on the memory card i inserted into my phone are now missing too.

Is it possible to recover my data back even after it has been deleted/stolen? Can any a phone expert/technician do that?

Op, you can start by posting the said site here. It is always advisable to install antivirus in your device as it will reduce your vulnerability to malicious programs to a reasonable degree.
