Help I may have a virus on my android phone!

Hey guys on my android phone I tried to download the secret video recorder pro app on an internet website without paying. Its about £6 to buy on the store and I wanted to see if it worked before I purchased and not lost my cash. I know its a stupid thing to do but I may have a virus or worse. After installing the app and just ran the app I got this message on my android phone saying anti piracy sending data to law enforcement.... before i knew it all my data has gone on my phone all messages pictures and downloads gone. Just wandered if anyone knows if this is a virus or a real message from the anti piracy law enforcement guys saying i'm in trouble. I know it was a stupid thing to do and after seeing all that I have learnt my lesson and will in future buy anything I need from the playstore. Need some replys here guys.

lol first time on the internet?

Cheers guys I really hope it was a virus. I have since done a factory restore and downloaded a virus protector on my phone. It's the first and last time I try and get an app on internet sites from google would you believe. So glad I never has credit card information saved on my mobile too.

Right guys I was worrying about what this app is i downloaded and wanted to know if it was a virus or not. I redownloaded the app and this message comes up after trying to run the app.....TEAM ANTI PIRACY!! ALL FILES ON YOUR SD CARD ARE DELETED!.....TEAM ANTI PIRACY!! YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION HAS BEEN SENT TO LAW ENFOECRMENT DATABASES WORLDWIDE!......so basically that whole message comes up and yeah it does delete everything as it happend last time. However this time i had a antivirus and malware protection installed called LOOKOUT. But nothing was detected and said everything is clean.

This is the webside I got the app off just wandered if anyone has seen that message before or if this site has a bad reputation

can any one please help How to recover the data lost by this virus..???simha123

If you didn't back it up, then you really can't. People should have figured out by now that smart phones should be handled the same as computers.
