I just got a notice from Samsung that they have new a new Privacey policy. When I get to the policy page it is blank except for a “Accept new policy” and text saying I must accept the policy to see it. I clicked the button - then that screen closed. What?? no policy? BTW - this was not sent as a normal text and does not show up in messages.
Enjoy your new malware
Yeah, I’m afraid that was a scam, not Samsung.
Samsung’s policy updates will in open a full-screen, white view in the same style as the rest of their OS (similar to the visual appearance of the Galaxy Store settings), just so you can keep that in mind for next time. ✌️
I received it as well but there is a “privacy notice” underlined link at the bottom and you can read it there.
restart your phone
hard reset might be warranted
Sure, it couldn’t hurt - The phone is restarted.
Yeah, that was quite likely a fake prompt that threw up graphics in front of a real permissions prompt and got you to click where the real accept permissions button was. So you gave that malicious app permission to access something, hopefully not your storage.
