Security / Vulnerability Issue with Samsung devices..
Hey People,
I awoke this morning at about 6:50am, bizarrely, before my alarm was meant to wake me at 7:15am.
Reached for my Galaxy S3 to check the time, and discovered it had turned itself off in the night, even though it was on charge.
So, I turned it back on and checked the battery meter - 99%... odd.
I didn't think much of it, as this had occurred once before, and I put it down to some kind of glitch.
After making some tea and walking to the living room, I picked up my Galaxy Note 10.1, and discovered that it also had autonomously turned itself off in the night...![Mad :mad: :mad:](/styles/smilies/google/angry.png)

My Pipo M8 tablet was still on, so the only thing that I could link the turning off of two independent Samsung devices, is the Samsung account.
It is a bit concerning that someone is walking around with the ability to shut down Samsung devices.
If anyone has had a similar experience, please post below.
