Hacking can my phone be cloned?..or is it my email addresses that are the cause?

[David1011]

Hi I have a suspicion that either my email addresses or my Samsung account has been hacked ?

First thing to do is change your passwords
If you don't have already, setup two factor authentication on any of your accounts
You don't say why you think you have an issue.
But usually issues arise when you open a link from an email. Sometimes if they look like they come from someone you know
I always double check the email addresses to make sure they come from where I expect

Can multi control app to be controlling my phone from other device?

Signs of hacking would generally include slow performance (not always conclusive  but in some instances can be malicious software), unexpected Data useage and big Battery Drain,strange pop up/ads-ie changed settings, unfamiliar apps or messages.

other than being careful with links (some can be malicious), it is  safer within the Galaxy and play stores, rooting should certainly be avoided.
