My android sent out a weird text with "code"


Recommended Posts

So Saturday my phone apparently sent out several texts with code at the same time to the same number.   It sent another one this morning.  I did not have malwarebytes installed at the time.  Anyone have any ideas on this? I attached a screenshot.

After I installed malwarebytes and ran it, scan found nothing.  I am really nervous about putting email and financial apps back on it until I have an idea of what hit my phone.

Apparently this is done by the 'Samsung Health' application (S-Health) sending a code to set up your device to utilize the "challenge" feature with friends .
(SMATMOTN = Smart Motion?).

Do you have Samsung Health on the phone?
