Putin may not want to send in the hit squad but I'm sure someone would like to know your house is empty and you're miles away or that your children/grandchildren are alone on their way to the park.
  Perhaps I'm overly paranoid but I used to work in IT so I know how easy it is for things to go wrong or  to be exploited.

I'm the same Sheila99, It allowed them to turn on camera and mic which is the bit I find creepy, and access emails etc x

Mind they would learn a lot about the menopause 😂 x

I would say that I never, ever do online banking or purchase anything, on my phone. I just don't trust a mobiles security.
