What Happened to Me Today:
Today, I realized my phone had been hacked. Before I could react, it was factory reset, and all my data was erased. I just got this massage on black screen while using the phone " clearing data do not operate the device" and then my phone turn on for new 'setup', but still it won't let me to do new setup , then I press power button and volume down button to enter the recovery mode, then it ask me to download the retain data using wifi ,its around 4 gb , then I connect the wifi ,after finishing the download, it let me fresh setup, This left me worried about whether the hacker might have accessed my sensitive information before the reset. today I visited some website there some pop up ads, maybe by mistake I clicked on them.
I’m unsure how they gained access—maybe through a malicious app, a phishing link, or an exploit. Now, I’m trying to understand:
What data they could have stolen before the reset?
If anyone has gone through something similar, I’d really appreciate your advice on what steps to take next.
Still, I feel there’s more I can do. Please share your thoughts or suggestions!
