Xunlei/Thunder (file sharing): Malware on iPhone X?
Hi all,
I am using an iPhone X and am with Optus as my service provider in Australia. The Optus app gives me a breakdown of where my data is being used and recently I noticed strange data usage for Xunlei/Thunder file sharing (see attached image below). But here's the thing, I do NOT have this as an app on my phone. I ONLY download apps from the app store and my phone is NOT jailbroken. I'm also quite digital savvy so I don't download questionable files or click on any dodgy links.
Does anyone have an idea where the heck this could be coming from? I'm thinking that perhaps it's embedded into another app or something because I am 100% confident I do NOT have Xunlei on my phone. I should also note that I've had my phone for a couple months so far and, looking back, there was no Xunlei data usage before the 25th of September. This happened all of a sudden on that date and has been happening every day since. I have also NOT added any new apps since then so not sure what's going on.
I also note that some data usage went to Neulion.com which is part of an app I use to stream sporting events, but I still have no idea where the heck this Xunlei/Thunder is coming from.
Would welcome any insights or feedback. I really don't want to have to wipe my phone clean with a factory reset.
Thanks in advance
iPhone X, iOS 11.4.1, null
