Binance Wallet Issues Security Alert: iPhone Users Urged to Check for FomoPeek App Installation Binance has released a security alert, noting awareness of a recent security incident disclosed by the crypto community. According to security firms including SlowMist, the third-party app FomoPeek (versions 1.1–1.2) contains malicious code that exploits iOS vulnerabilities to gain full device access, potentially stealing sensitive data stored on the device—including private keys, mnemonics, login credentials, chat logs, and files. This malware targets the device itself; if successfully executed, it could grant access to data from all apps on the affected device. Users are advised to verify two key points: 1. Are you using an iPhone or iPad running iOS 26.x or earlier? 2. Have you installed the FomoPeek app? If both apply, take these immediate steps: 1. Delete the FomoPeek app and do not reinstall it. 2. Update your iOS to the latest version. 3. For self-custody wallet users: Create a new wallet on a device that has never had the app installed, then transfer your assets to the new wallet address. 4. If you spot any unusual asset activity, preserve the affected device and relevant evidence, and contact customer support for further investigation. Binance also reminds all users to avoid installing apps from untrusted sources and keep their device software up to date.
