Samsung mistakenly sends out "Find my mobile" notification to random users

20 February 2020
The notification held a cryptic "1 1" message, but it turns out it's just an internal test and wasn't meant to reach real Galaxy owners.

I became it to my S10+ this morning,switzerland.

    I got this message too (I'm in India). I didn't think too much of it and removed the notification with a swipe. However the thought that the phone might be under some sort of hack did cross my mind. But since I'm not too heavily dependent on my phone (I use my laptop for most work) I didn't really care.

            Got in on my S10 (Bengaluru, India). I thought, somebody had hacked my phone. Thanks for the confirmation.
