Avast Mobile App - Installation Of Avast Anti-Theft That Has Permission To Send Sms Messages

[giggles321]

Hi. This is my first mobile I have had that I am actually using the internet on, so I am a bit hopeless in knowing how to sort some things out!! Samsung Galaxy S3. I recently installed an app called Avast Mobile. Since then I have noticed that my top up money keeps going down, after consulting with the GiffGaff Team it turns out that the tel number that I am apparently r'inging' belong to 420720001669 the Czech Republic! It seems to me that it coincides with the installation of Avast Anti-Theft that has permission to send SMS messages, and as coincidence AVAST Software is a Czech company … Is there any way I can stop the text messages? Especially as I am the one that is paying for them!! Or should I un-install avast and look for another app. Thank you.
