Sim cards in telephone can indeed short out if they are in a telephone that gets wet. If a phone gets wet, shut it off immediately, remove the battery if possible and remove the Sim and SD cards.

Sim cards are built to withstand water damage; however, they are still susceptible. The best thing to do is if your phone gets wet, remove the sim card immediately and dry it out.
