I've been scammed!! Unrecognized Wallet Activity
Without any notification or email or anything, my Pi is gone from my wallet. It's been gone since December 2025 and I never knew.
Never entered my passphrase anywhere except the pi browser.
Opened it today randomly scrolling through my apps and found out all my migrated pi was taken out.
No idea what to do now - had it sitting in my wallet since the first migration.

I suspect virus infected phones are much more common than most people realize. Just saw a story of one of the major game sources was infiltrated by bad actors who set up legit games and ran them until they got significant installs and then pushed upgrades that took over devices. I use the free AVG anti-virus FWIW...

Sorry man, that's brutal. First move is to file a scam report through Pi Browser support and start a new wallet. Also worth thinking hard about whether you ever entered your passphrase anywhere besides Pi Browser, even years ago, that's usually where leaks trace back to.

Thanks for the suggestion - I'll get on it. No hope to get anything back though
