I’m running Graphene on a Pixel 6. I lost it and someone opened it somehow and called two of my contacts to give it back.

I’m a bit confused how this even happened. When I got the phone back, they were going through my contacts. I checked app usage stats and they went through a banking app (not missing money), maps, signal, etc.

Is there a way to figure out how they even unlocked my phone?

    Is it possible that something else was installed to the phone? If they manage to hack it open, then potential reason to return it to you is to spy on you.

        Why not? Most people ITT clearly don’t seem security minded enough to even think of that as a possibility.
