~~The package name is correct~~, but signal was never on F-droid.
Do you have a third party repo that might be compromised?
Edit: Package name isn't correct, so that's almost definitely a compromised version. Get rid of it ASAP.
Twinhelix is the only one compiling the app from source without proprietary blobs
