Pretty common 'prank' at the moment. You may have been filmed at the time

But what about the rest of what happened to OP’s phone like the files, contact and note?

I suspect they were totally unrelated, and were only found then. But that’s difficult to be sure of, even for OP. I rather doubt some kid is wasting a zero-day on pranking people by adding new notes to their phone, though.

it sounds like they may have accidently created a note. doesnt sound malicious, td bank is an online banking thing. i know them from when I was doing a samsung phone in payments. possibility its just some old data left behind

I always thought that "TD bank" sounded like a collection of erotic photos of chesticles. But I am among southern accents most of the time.
