Solana Mobile removed a fake airdrop app called “SKR Claim” after it briefly appeared in the App Spotlight of its dApp Portal. The company said it fixed the issue that allowed the listing and warned users who entered a seed phrase to move funds to a new wallet.
Key points

- Solana Mobile linked the incident to unauthorized access to its publishing portal and a spotlighting flaw.
- The company said there was no impact on devices, Seed Vault, or on-chain systems.
- Anyone who entered a seed phrase was told to migrate funds to a new wallet.
Why it matters
This incident shows how a curated app surface can still be used to trick users. For crypto users, the main concern is seed phrase exposure, which can fully compromise a wallet.
