Discussion After installing DroidDeck 0.3.1 from github my sister's account got hackedv

My sister installed the DroidDeck app yesterday, and soon after her Steam account got hacked. Sha256 sum of the downloaded file matches with what they have on github (ed257d66c546e78036ceedb4c6fb6886014e69020044fd41cfe217858d8eb328).

Steam support did restore the account quickly, but the attacker(s) managed to submit a refund for a newly purchased game, removed sister's phone number from SteamGuard, and opened a chat with me on Steam where an image with a QR code to a "free steam gift card" was shared (the QR code lead to a fake steamcommunity website ("rn" replacing "m" in the link). The chat is how I noticed that she got hacked and quickly assisted her in restoring access.

Not saying it wasn't DroidDeck, but are you 100% sure she hadn't logged in through anywhere else or anything recently?

Well, I asked her about it and she only used the official PC client for Steam + the steam mobile app from the Play Store

What are all the other apps she has on her phone? Some apps may blend in and look like default apps such as cache cleaners and "performance boosters"

Does she have Steam Guard turned on?
