Model: Tapo C220  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Tapo c220 camera has been hacked though I am not sure how as I checked the log history on my phone app and it's just me accessing. 


Yesterday we heard a woman speaking in foreign language through one of our cameras in the kitchen and then today the same sounds came again but from our corridor  

 

I changed the password yesterday but still the sounds came back today. So we are convinced we have been hacked but not sure how. 
 

Tapo please check and let us know what's going on???
