Some Samsung smartphones are randomly sending pictures from the device to a user’s contacts without explicit permission, according to users and media outlets. From a report: Users are complaining about the issue on Reddit and the company’s official forums. One user says his phone sent all his photos to his girlfriend. The messages are being sent through Samsung’s default texting app Samsung Messages, and the photos are being sent as SMS messages. According to reports, the Messages app does not even show users that files have been sent; many just find out after they get a response from the recipient of the random photos sent to them. Samsung told the news outlet it was aware of the issue and was looking into it.
