Help What is this on my phone??

I recently ordered a brand new sim free unlocked Samsung S5 from an online mobile phone site. When it arrived the box was sealed but the phone inside looked like the sticky clear plastic on the back had maybe been tampered with. When I looked through the phone it had a game called "Moko si prietenii" installed on it and it will not let me uninstall it, only disable it. Can anyone explain to me what this is and how I might be able to get rid of it? Is there anything else I should check for on the phone? Thank you.
