Has Anyone Ever Pulled Off the Stagefright Exploit?

If anyone remembers the Stagefright exploit (CVE-2015-1538 I think) you would remember that it could potentially achieve root access by sending a corrupt video file to an android device running an un-patched version, with no user interaction required.

My question is, has anyone actually ever replicated this exploit, or has it ever been used in a crime that we know of? I can't even try to replicate it because I don't have an android device and you can't send MMS on the android VM.
