Samsung Smarthub refrigerator playing ramdimly very loud music at 1 am
Last night while sleeping, I was woken up by the most terrifying sound of a woman's voice. It sounded like she was in the house with a loud speaker. She said the name Becky and my name sounds like Becky so that makes it even more scary. It was blasting loud. I jumped up and started screaming and tripping on things to get to where the voice was coming from. We have an open kitchen so it was easy to find out that it was coming from the refrigerator, plus my dog was barking at it.
So I'm standing there looking at the screen of the fridge and it's black but there is a little bar with the play button, rewind, fast forward, and an X buttton to turn it off. But the bar was like floating around and I was still disoriented so it was hard to press the X to turn it off.
I then realize that it was the beginning of the song "Baby Got Back". When the girl is talking to Becky. But it was so terrifying. Anyway, I finally was able to X it and it closed. The only thing is, I now have no idea what that app was and how it started playing. I bought the refrigerator from a Best Buy outlet store 2 years ago. It was slightly used. Sometimes, it will drop one of those Bixby things and make a noise, and sometimes it will show reminders for appointments that I never made. So I'm guessing it still has the previous owner's stuff in it. I tried to find which app might have been playing. I saw a spotify icon and clicked it. There wasnt a playlist, but a lot of suggestions. I clicked on a song to see if it minimized into that floating bar that Insaw. But it didnt. I did notice that it said "playing on Zack's phone". I don't know anyone named Zack and I don't even have a Spotify account. I also never listen to music on the refrigerator, or anything on there for that matter. I'm just wondering if anyone has any idea how this could have happened. Also, does anyone know what music app would have a floating play bar on the screen? Thanks for any info.
