Do you have any apps on your device that help store images? Or maybe an online backup app? If so, one of those may be trying to send your images to that site.
I do have an app that I have use for a few years and have an upload to the cloud with Photo Vault. I had done many uploads manually and Norton has no problem.
It sounds like something changed on the site that that app sends the photos to. What is the app you are using? Maybe try contacting that app’s support to report what you are seeing.
Yes I will contact them, the answer That I’m getting from Norton is not useful because I don’t know if my phone still has fishing malware. I Also had downloaded a social media call YouPic which also you load photos but I only chose one. I deleted that app.
Thanks

To answer your questions, in Norton 360 every is ok and no risk, it found 4 malicious websites, no info about it and 3 risk detected in device security. it’s always been all green but the notifications that I found last week came during the night, so I have no idea from which app or what. all it said that web address was unsafe and recommended not to use the site. So there were two attempts and I don’t know if Norton after cut this app trying to send data, has got rid of it or blocked, isolated or did nothing but just warn me.
I have use Private Phot Vault for many years and I started to use their cloud services for at least 5,6 moths. I do the backup manually only want I want to save, no automatic backup.
The malicious websites it’s above in this thread.
I feel better with your reassurance, thank you!
I was able to connect my iPhone to my Mac and do a scan. this confirms It all good so I will no longer need help.
Thank you for all of your help, I much appreciated.
