Voip-Pal.Com Inc. (PINKSHEETS: VPLM) is a provider of international
calls using VoIP technology on the internet and smart cell phones.
Voip-Pal's goal is to provide a quality, reliable, cost-effective
and safe solution for the casual and business international
traveler who must rely on their smartphones to communicate.
Voip-Pal.Com Inc. ("Voip-Pal") announces the availability for
North America Android users of its PointsPhone Platinum™ Suite
package which bundles an Antivirus Program. The Antivirus Program
has been designed specifically to guard smartphones against
spyware, malware and viruses.
"Having a virus protection program for your desktop or laptop PC
is now common-place," states Dennis Chang, President of Voip-Pal,
"with 90 percent of PC users using some kind of antivirus program.
And yet, less than 10 percent of current smartphone users are using
antivirus programs. Most smartphone users are unaware of the virus
threat and those who are aware don't know what to do about it.
Smartphone sales are outpacing sales of PCs. Smartphones are now
taking over the world computer marketplace. Unlike our PCs, we
carry our smartphones with us everywhere, and because of sensitive
financial and personal information stored on our smartphones,
smartphones are a gold mine for cyber criminals. Security
protection is probably THE most important App to download for any
smartphone.
"When a customer can receive a state-of-art antivirus program
already included when they purchase airtime minutes, a decision to
purchase our Platinum Suite is straightforward. Especially when you
consider it can cost the consumer over $30 for a similar
stand-alone product without airtime minutes. The airtime minutes
are worth it by itself. The customer will save on ridiculous
roaming charges and our rates are extremely competitive with
everyone else out there, including Skype™."
The PointsPhone Platinum™ Suite is now available in North
America only for all Google Android smartphones, including the new
high-performing Motorola ATRIX™ and Samsung's Galaxy 4G™. The
Platinum Suite will include a one year subscription to a
state-of-art antivirus program, substantial domestic and
international airtime minutes, enhanced Voice Mail features and a
free North America phone number. The antivirus program is truly
comprehensive, providing automatic real-time protection against
viruses, spyware and other malware. Memory cards are automatically
scanned when they are inserted to prevent transfer of malware and
viruses. A GPS locating system is available to track down lost or
stolen smartphones. A Remote Backup feature is available to backup
all data stored on the smartphone in case the smartphone is lost or
stolen.
"Smartphone users should be aware of four basic types of threats
from viruses on smartphones," says Mukesh (Mike) Mohanbhai, Chief
Technical Officer (CTO). "The first is called Advanced Mobile
Malware which attacks mobile users' bank accounts and steals their
logins and passwords. The second threat is called Converged
Messaging Spam which prompts users to reply to a SMS messaging spam
and charges them extremely high per minute rates. The third is
called IP Reputation which imbeds malicious malware in SMS and
email spam. The fourth type is a Credit Attack which are messages
prompting users to call back and incur an extremely high per minute
billing rate. In addition to these basic types of threats, there
are harmful spyware and new generation viruses that criminals are
developing to access the financial and personal data on
smartphones. We must always be one step ahead of the cyber
criminals.
"We are proud to announce the PointsPhone Platinum™ Suite for
the Android as our Vanguard product," adds Mr. Mohanbhai. "Our
technical team is working around the clock to finish development of
the Platinum Suite for the iPhone, Blackberry, Symbian and Windows
Phone platforms, and working on extending our Platinum Suite
service to international Android users. We are also improving the
Point of Sales process for the Platinum Suite to make it easier for
our users to download and use all of our services."
The PointsPhone Platinum™ Suite is available in North America
only for Google Android smartphones on our retail website
www.pointsphone.com. Users will register and purchase a Platinum
Suite for $29.95. A User account and password will be created and
users will have immediate access to their account for airtime
minutes, Voice Mail and virtual phone numbers. A registration
number for their Antivirus Program will be sent as a text message
to their smartphone which will provide access to download their
Antivirus Program within 48 hours (to complete fraud check). A free
North America Phone Number is allocated. The PointsPhone Mobile™
App for the Android is downloaded free from the Android Market App
Store (search 'pointsphone').
