Auto factory reset!

I just noticed this under settings>lock screen.

This option is turned on by default. If the incorrect pin to log in your phone is entered 10 times incorrectly, the phone resets itself and deletes all your data.

My three year old will attempt to log into my phones till they shut down. I'm glad I saw this when I did, I'd hate to lose all my info!

I agree with you. This option should have been turned off by default

I have the AT&T model and this option is not on my phone. To the OP what carrier are you on?

 

[oditius]

Not a part of AT&T phone, unless it isn't an option. I wish I had root, I would give it a shot and see if it standard... LoL

Not there on my Sprint phone.

It's set by default on my Verizon.
