Scientists are claiming that Extra Terrestrial signals could come from Computer Hackers, or Trolls...
These Exerts are from the article linked below...
"A recently published study looks into the potential threats of receiving an alien message from the stars. Scientists say how the contents of a potential alien message could be malicious in nature, resulting in many problems for our civilization."
"humanity could protect itself against spam or malicious viruses from a hypothetical extraterrestrial message."
“A complex message from space may require the use of computers to display, analyze and understand. Such a message cannot be decontaminated with certainty, and technical risks remain which can pose an existential threat. Complex messages would need to be destroyed in the risk-averse case.”
"if humans ever receive a message from an extraterrestrial civilization, apart from the fact that this would be the largest event in the history of mankind, we would be at great risk."
“several possible threats from an ETI message. On the most basic level, a message might represent a statement like “We will make your sun go supernova tomorrow”. True or not, it could cause widespread panic.”
"Scientists suggest that any potential alien messages spotted by SETI are examined and “decontaminated” previously, to avoid potential damage, since, as researchers point out, to eradicate an entire civilization it would be much easier for aliens to send us a malicious message (virus) than an alien armada."
"beyond the likelihood that a message could convey misinformation designed to cause a panic or self-destructive behavior, there is also the possibility that it could contain viruses or other embedded technical issues (i.e. the format could cause our computers to crash)."
"neutralizing a possible computer threat that could arrive in the form of a message coming from an extraterrestrial civilization with more advanced technology would be very difficult, so they recommend being cautious and applying security measures to try to avoid greater risks."

You know, it does seem very likely that Aliens could be capable of sending highly complex malicious transmissions containing viruses that could be intercepted by wireless devices, and when activated, it that could hack the internal operating code, in order to shut down the entire communications network of Planet Earth... And that's just for starters...
