Why Data://(null) Virus Got On My iPhone/iPad?

I think someone hacked into my phone, because a virus was installed on my iphone. It installed a pornographic app without me knowing and made itself a “Device Administrative App” (from what I remember) so I was unable to uninstall it. Something really scary happens next, when I try to uninstall it, an information page pops up from the US Police Data://(null) as i am in USA, and it says that I am charged of viewing child pornography and stuff, even though I have never before! I am so scared because it says I could go to jail. I was able to end the app and make it stop working while I made it not a “Device Administrative App” and I uninstalled the app. I am so scared though because it had my phone number and an IP Address. One thing about it that was fishy was that it listed my “Cellurar Network”; Cellular spelt as “Cellurar”. I do not think that a government page would have a spelling error such as that. Please respond back to me as soon as possible to help me because I almost fainted when I saw all this on my phone.
This Trojan attack can happen in three ways:

• If you visit a malicious website
• If you visit an authentic website that has been taken by hackers
• If you click on malicious links from your phone

Since viruses are quite inevitable, there are some tips you can avoid being infected with Data://(null) virus pop-up in the future:
1. Be careful of downloading applications in the internet because many of them are just cloned applications. Visit legitimate app stores like Apple Store because it filters out the reliable application from what’s not reliable. Most viruses are from gaming and anti-virus applications which are forged. Before downloading an application, try to read some customer reviews so that you will be assured that it is truly a trusted app. Stick with apps from App Store and don’t jailbreak your device and install apps from third-parties.

2. Be cautious at opening attachments thru MMS, SMS messages and e-mails because you might open an unknown attachment from unknown sender. Never open any attachments which are suspicious to you.

3. Don’t open your Bluetooth connection when not in need. It would be easy for the virus to go inside the phone’s application and destroy the phone’s performance.

4. Read the permissions. Every app you install has to declare its permissions, meaning the app lists what it will have access to on your phone. Don’t just click OK without reading what the app will do.
