Random files on AWS S3 d_uf

Question

i am working with AWS S3 for the first time using the AWS Mobile HUD.

Somehow my S3 bucket is full with (literally 1000's of files) that i cannot access (due to policy) with random d_uf,... names.

Any idea what these could be?

I am only using AWS for profile picture storage on my social network app written in Swift.

I create a folder and file for each user /AWSID/profilePicture/...jpg

The random files appear at root of my bucket.

Are you the admin? Can't you change the policy and inspect the files? — Alistra, Apr 05 '17 at 21:00
