I opened the message and it looks strange to me because it comes with an icon to click to download..has anybody here experience such? I'm asking to know if my phone is safe and if it's safe to click the download

Me too. I blocked. They want to read your account details and steal your money if you ever try downloading

It seems its a general problem to MTN customers.

Service providers should try and look into all these scam messages sent to majority of their customers

This happened to me too.. it started on last Saturday. I clicked the message info, then long press the unknown number, then copy to clipboard... When I pasted the number.. it was a Chinese number.

They are MMS messages.
But from unknown sender,so it better to block them off.

Those whose phone support Google's RCS (Rich Communication Services) and using MTN Sim are the ones receiving those messages.

By the way, MTN now support RCS. With RCS, you can chat using supported text messaging application, like Google messaging app, with other RCS users. This works as an instant messenger using your internet connection, not airtime.

From my observation, it works when the sim is on sim one slot.

You can google and read more about RCS.
