I figured I would ask around before I open an official issue. Is anybody else having issues connecting to Tuta Mail when on VPN connected to wifi unless you choose a server in your home country ? I am in Canada and when I try to connect to Tuta Mail it fails to sync and bring down new mail when on a VPN and on wifi unless I choose a server in Canada. This happens on Mullvad VPN as well as Proton VPN. It happens on my Android phone running GrapheneOS as well as my desktop/laptops using Solus. If I connect either VPN to a server in Canada it works. If I connect to any server at all but use cell data then it also works. This also doesn't happen at all on Protonmail or with my Disroot email I use Thunderbird for.

⚠️ Mobile security risk: New Android malware "SuperCard X" enables contactless payment fraud via NFC relay attacks 📱💳

Here’s how it works:
🔹 Victims are socially engineered through fake bank alerts (smishing + calls)
🔹 Tricked into installing a rogue app posing as “security software”
🔹 NFC data is intercepted from real debit/credit cards
🔹 Attackers relay stolen credentials to PoS terminals and ATMs for fraudulent cashouts

Why it matters:
• Attackers no longer need stolen physical cards — just proximity + deception
• Banking customers, payment providers, and card issuers are all at risk
• Google is working on Android protections — but vigilance is key now

🛡️ Tip: Always scrutinize app installs, verify messages before acting, and keep Google Play Protect enabled.
