Help Please I'm hacked !

No, there is no sign that she actually, really, did that.

Social engineering. To which you apparently are susceptible.
Either you, yourself, or someone else, told her about some stuff that's on your phone.

That's what she TOLD you. And you believe her...

Nothing you told us so far points to that. She only SAID so.

There are thousands of files on your phone that you don't know by heart and would appear brandnew to you. Especially if you're suspicious. Which she made you...

Again: she's got you by the FUD balls, and you're falling for it hook, line, and sinker!


BTW, what did you do to that chick to make her screw you like this...?

there were just 20-30 photos in my gallery and i know,i remember each of them. I am well aware always what i download and what i don't in my cell.
I didn't do anything to her,even i don't know her.There must be another way through which she hacked my cell.Nobody told her about stuff in my phone,neither i did to nobody! why would I? I had have Avast AV it didn't detect anything suspicious,how about if it was a FUD virus?

The first thing that strikes me when I look at the NIMBUZZ app in the Play Store is the phrase "Connect your address book and share unlimited photos, files, music and videos". You may think not, but are you certain that it isn't NIMBUZZ which has given her access to files, which she's then told you is because she's "hacked" your phone (without giving any believable specifics, as the details she has given are clearly nonsense)? That sounds much more plausible than the things she's claiming. Don't panic because someone says they are a programmer - there are lots of us here, doesn't make us magicians.

There are other ways unexpected images can get onto a phone. I've seen people panic about icon packs, or images from browser caches, before now. And I've recently read of cases where someone's new phone was sharing images over WiFi networks without the owner knowing the feature existed, never mind was on. If you use social networks how do you know she hasn't found stuff there which she's guessed came from your phone, if she's been able to connect up your IDs? I'm sure with a little imagination you can think of other ways of playing games like that.

So yes, check and take precautions, but I really wouldn't panic. But do also follow Don's advice and check in the Galaxy Y forum, where there are people who know your device.

// I understand this thing about NIMBUZZ. while logging in,It always ask to add address book in the account aka phonebook,but i never did add it,never ever. There is an option through which a user added in your list can see your Friendlist. But just friendlist if the your profile details isn't locked. Nothing more than it.

I'm with Hadron on this one. This app has an insane amount of permissions. Unless you have to use it, I'd uninstall.

there were two images appeared after i added her, It was some logo,i didn't notice it fully,i immediately deleted them. These two images appeared in my gallery in a folder named "My album". Again i say,it was appeared after i added her.

You weren't hacked....except socially. the flame virus can not and could not infect android phones, and any good hacker does not tell you that they ARE a hacker. Their goal was to scare you and they succeeded. Stay out of chat rooms the nimbuzz app itself is very suspicious with all the permissions it asks for. Its very easy to find the info that the "hacker" is talking about just by doing a search on a username. Worst case scenario they guessed the password to your google account.

Try changing your gmail password: she may be accessing your pics on Google through your photo up loader on your mobiile where your pics are uploaded into the Google account... maybe she has got your Google account password.

she didn't tell that she is a hacker by herself. I had found this fact about her. what i did is i retrieved her profile,i checked her contact list, there was a friend of mine who was added in her list,i contacted him through him i got to know that she is hacker girl. I forced her to accept this fact,then finally she did accept.
SO she accessed my gallery through my google account?

how about if it was a FUD virus?

That's what I've been telling you all along!

You've got an uncanny knack for ignoring what is said and then coming up with the same thing two posts later as if you thought of it yourself...

I recommend you go to see a paranormal medium. I'll bet he/she will be perfect at contacting your loved ones for you.
