Security Alert｜iPhone Users, Please Check Immediately！
On September 19, Binance Wallet released an important security announcement:
Third-party app FomoPeek (versions 1.1–1.2) has been confirmed to contain malicious code. According to disclosures by security firms such as SlowMist, the app can exploit vulnerabilities in the iOS system to gain the highest level of access to the device, and thereby read sensitive data stored on the device—including private keys, seed phrases, login credentials, chat records, files, and more.
This is not ordinary phishing—it is a direct attack on the device itself.
Once infected, data from all apps on the phone could be stolen, and self-custody wallets are especially risky.
Please check yourself immediately:
1. Are you using an iPhone/iPad running iOS 26.x or earlier?
2. Have you installed the FomoPeek app?
If both apply, take the following steps right away:
1. Delete FomoPeek immediately and never install it again.
2. Update your iOS system to the latest version.
3. For self-custody wallet users: create a new wallet on a clean device that has never had this app installed, and transfer all assets to it.
4. If you notice any abnormal movement of assets, keep the device and evidence, and contact customer support as soon as possible for investigation.
These incidents once again remind us: in the crypto world, phone system permissions are the final line of defense for asset security. No matter how carefully you protect your seed phrase, if the device is rooted or accessed beyond authorization, everything is for nothing.
We recommend that everyone develop these habits:
- Install apps only through official channels; avoid any “trending tools” of unknown origin.
- Keep important assets in a hardware wallet or on a fully isolated clean device whenever possible.
- Don’t delay system updates—vulnerability windows are often when hackers are most active.
Security is no small matter. It’s better to check one more time than regret it later.
Please spread the word to the iPhone users around you!
