The invisible app that spied on 26,000 victims just exposed its creator—and every customer.
A major security flaw in Catwatchful—a stealth Android spyware app—has exposed its entire database of over 62,000 customers and 26,000 victims, including photos, messages, and real-time locations. The leak also unmasked the developer, Omar Soca Charcov, by linking his personal email and recovery credentials to the operation. Catwatchful, disguised as a child monitoring tool, uploaded stolen data to Google Firebase and used an unauthenticated API, making the breach possible. Though Google was notified, the app remains online. Victims can detect the app by dialing 543210, and support is available via the Coalition Against Stalkerware.
