Claude Code found spyware on my sister’s phone. It had been tracking her for 11 weeks…
She asked me to check her phone. Someone always seemed to know where she was and she couldn’t figure out how
I plugged it into Claude Code and asked what’s running that she never installed. It walked every app, including the hidden ones, and flagged one disguised as “System Service”, no icon, not on any store
It had been there 11 weeks, logging her location every 2 minutes. Claude pulled the details on whoever was running it:
reports to → +1 (415) *** **72
carrier → T-Mobile US
device id → IMEI 35 ********** 47
last ping it sent → 40.7**, -73.9** · 2 min ago
We saved everything the app had recorded and passed it to the people who do this professionally. Then Claude shut it down and wiped it off her phone
The full step-by-step is below, takes 5 minutes. Save it so you don't lose it, and send it to anyone who might need it
