Can I get a virus on my Iphone4?

I've been reading lately about a virus called Zeus that can lay dormant on your computer and attack you bank account clearing it out. I updated my antivirus on my computer and I've been careful about what links I click etc. I use my Iphone4 a lot as well and this morning I checked my email on it and had what I believe to be a phishing email from Facebook about buying old Iphones and stuff. It was a list of emails that opened up after reading a few emails ahead of it. I never clicked a link or even stayed on the email for two seconds before it was deleted. I don't want my bank account cleared out. Can you get a virus just from simply opening an email without clicking the link it offers or do you have to click the link to download the virus and if so can a virus even effect an Iphone? My phone is not "jailbroken". Just to be cautious I deleted my bank app from the my phone. I know my PC's relatively safe so I'll just check my bank from there. Just wondering.

Yes. The more advance a cell phone is, the more prone you are to getting a virus or even hacked.

Yes. People can hack into phones nowadays and hijack it. They can search for info on it, take pictures of you remotely, record various things audibly.

You don't seem so adamant about yer security. Think of yer phone like it's a computer.

Pretend like the internet is like sex.

You don't need to worry about that, Zeus can't affect iphones and its really hard to get a virus on the iphone in any way unless you jailbreak it and start installing stuff from outside of the appstore (all code is reviewed before it can even get into the appstore, so its really safe).
