This evening I've had 4 spam notifications within an hour - betting websites etc and some weird contact requests. I pressed on the notification and when it said 'connect via Chrome - always or only once' etc, I just closed it and the notification disappeared. I couldn't get rid of them any other way (or don't know how to) and hope this hasn't compromised my phone further.
What can I do please to stop this happening? I'm a bit clueless when it comes to the phone's finer points. I have only 2 selections ticked in settings>security, which are verify apps & make passwords visible. I use Avast mobile security's free version.
Another q which is minor: in settings>about this phone, the phone no that came with the SIM card (I ported my own no the same day) is logged as the phone's no. Google support didn't know if I could change this or how. Is there a simple way or no point as requires a full reset?
