Green dot appearing without using any apps or backround apps

The green dot started appearing without using any backround applications, i know what it does, it indicates when the camera is in use, but the problem is, it is showing up without using the camera, without backround applications, i think someone is spying on me.

Have you checked to see if the green dot is on your wallpaper image? Try changing wallpaper.
