I remember there was a tel: link than when I clicked it wipes everything on my samsung phone

That’s insane, and I’d like to know more about how that even came to pass. A quick search isn’t surfacing anything relevant, do you have a link?

  • At a guess it was an MMI / USSD code for factory reset. Allegedly the code:

      *2767*3855#
    

    Executes a full wipe and firmware reinstall with no confirmation prompt. This was probably it. Don't post the clickable link.
