Hello Community,
I was just clearing up my (Android) phone and when I was looking in the downloads folder there is an Adobe Acrobat folder and inside of it is a random file I couldn't imagine I've downloaded its name is 'ChandlerIncidentReview.pdf' no a single clue how it got on my phone, I opened it and its a bunch of scanned documents from the Chandler Police Department. The document is about this case. How would it had gotten on my phone?

Jump to PostRemove it. DO NOT OPEN IT! It may well be malware, ready to infect your system if you open it. I don't know, but as the saying goes, better safe than sorry!

Hm. Perhaps an overzealous browser pre-loaded it for you from a link on a page you visited?

Absolutely agree - especially considering that we are talking about a PDF here!
