Did you use a "supplied" charger while there?
Nope - aware of juice jackers, so I only used my own cables and adapters (even have a USB condom).
I'm generally pretty security aware, but my only theory of how it landed there is some cellular exploit. Whether it was a crafted MMS, a custom cell site, or something else I don't know.
I did use mobile data for some ubers, but that was off-site.
