Your protection strategy:

1. Revoke all permissions immediately: Go to Settings → Apps → [App Name] → Permissions → Deny ALL access to contacts, phone, SMS, and storage
2. Uninstall if possible – though note some dangerous apps continue running background processes after uninstallation
3. Document everything – save all abusive messages and calls as evidence
