Suspicious ERC20 transfers from both hot and cold wallets – need help understanding

need urgent help understanding some suspicious token transfers that are happening from my wallets.

EDIT: Mystery solved TIL, Token Contract creators, can move around tokens at their will, also FROM other people's wallets. nothing to worry about. Read further just if you are curious.

• A few days ago, I saw an outgoing ERC20 token transfer from my hot MetaMask wallet. The token was one I had never interacted with before (token address: 0xc09d668a04360475819f1de5a6f5ee11cbefcf0c). It was flagged to a phishing address.
• This morning, a similar outgoing transfer happened, but this time from a different wallet: my cold Ledger wallet, which is completely air-gapped and which I haven’t used directly.
• Even stranger: while I was drafting this post, a third outgoing transfer of the same type just happened again, back on the hot wallet.
• Another suspicious token I saw being transferred is here: token address: 0xd1396f7cd157eea7d096326ddec871c9fe22eda8.

The only link between these wallets is that they have interacted with each other in the past, but I don’t understand how both can now be showing these weird outgoing internal transfers of scammy ERC20 tokens.

What I know / observed:

• These don’t show up as “normal” transactions I signed.
• They only appear in Token Transfers on Etherscan.
• No ETH has been stolen so far — I even tested by putting a small amount back, and it wasn’t drained.
• Some months back I had received a huge incoming transfer of these junk tokens (1M units), which I ignored at the time.

Now I’m seriously worried:

• Could both wallets really be compromised, even the cold Ledger?
• Is this instead some kind of “phantom” transfer (like dust / spam ERC20s moving around) that doesn’t mean my keys are compromised?
• Or maybe something related to allowances / approvals that I don’t remember granting?

???? If anyone wants to dig into this more deeply, I can share the full transaction details by DM. I’ll happily send a small ETH tip to whoever helps me understand and monitor what’s going on.

(Scammers welcome too ????)

Thanks a lot in advance — I’m really lost here.
