Downloaded a possibly malicious configuration profile

I have downloaded a configuration by mistake when browsing safari. I only downloaded it but did not install the profile. In fact, I removed the downloaded profile from settings right after I downloaded it. The phone is working just fine but still I want to know if there is a chance of my phone already being infected. Thanks!

If you avoided installing the profile or removed it then you are not infected.

Profiles and calendar spam are the only places to get annoyware.
