Hacker used Phantom memory...

None of this sounds even vaguely true. While I'm sure it is theoretically possible to use the bluetooth or wifi of your Phantom network as attack vectors via a hitherto unknown exploit, the effort and costs involved would require a very valuable target, and there would be much easier ways to run this attack.

At the end of this the result was, what - some files appeared? You reset the speaker and now suddenly you feel safe?

If you'd really been hacked with this level of sophistication, a root kit would have been installed and I wouldn't trust your computer at all without formatting it entirely. Even then, all bets are off.

Without any actual evidence like examples of these hidden files and/or analysis of their network activity to diagnose which nefarious activities they were undertaking, this seems like (at best) a misunderstanding of how the app works.

Yes there was created a partion in the root too.

Guys, I've been in cybersecurity for a long time. I was a hacker as a kid, and ran the cybersecurity products/strategy for one of the largest security companies.

This description of what happened makes zero sense. It doesn't even match how technically a hack would happen.

You have to already have hacked into the WiFi network to be able to leverage the Phantom, unless it was broadcasting a public IP (which I don't believe it does). The Phantom would then have to be able to write files from the Phantom to your computer, which no computer is setup to allow by default. Even if someone hacks into your WiFi, they can't automatically write to your computer unless they also hacked the computer.

I'm highly skeptical this is real.
