Received a strange photo
Hello,
I received a strange and worrying photo from someone and I don't know why but I'm panicking.
The photo was a series of red dots in a specific pattern. I don't remember much since I immediately closed the chat and never touched the photo (didn't download or open). I blocked the person immediately since I assume they were hacked.
Basically I'm scared that this photo may have infected my Android phone (up to date OS).
I was in the brave browser at the time.
Basically I'm stressed about potentially the photo somehow running a script on my phone somehow.
Again, I never downloaded anything or clicked the photo.
(On a burner since this is kinda embarrassing)
