A text can hack your Android phone before you open it, report says

Hackers have found a way to steal information from Android phones with just a text.

The scariest part, according to Forbes? You don't even have to open the text for the hackers to get what they want.

As many as 95 percent of Android phones are vulnerable, Forbes reports. That means nearly 1 billion phones are in danger.

The reason for the hack is an Android tool called Stagefright. The exploit allows hackers to record audio and video and to view saved photos.

Worse, hackers could delete the message before you realize there is a problem.

Most major Android manufacturers have not yet offered a patch to fix the problem.
