Some Samsung smartphones have started to send their photos in memory to other contacts, without the owners' knowledge

Some models of Samsung smartphones have started to send the photographs of the phone roll to the contacts in the address book themselves, without direct action by their owners. The problem was reported by Gizmodo and numerous users on Reddit. The sending takes place through the default Samsung Messages app, which also does not show that it has sent: who has noticed it is because it has received reports from the contacts to whom the photos were sent. The malfunction seems to mainly concern the Galaxy S9 and S9 + models used in the United States. The cause could be the recent release of an update to introduce the RCS system, which allows you to transform SMS into a chat similar to those of WhatsApp and Messenger. However, T-Mobile, one of the largest operators in the United States, has ruled out that it is responsible, saying that the problem directly concerns Samsung. While the company does its verifications, you can revoke the permissions to access your camera roll regarding the Messages app on Samsung by following this guide.
