Have a search through the Ionic and Versa forums for "ghost steps".  In the Versa forum it's one of the few pinned threads.  You'll find all you need to know there.

Welcome on board @chihfu! Remember that the wrist trackers count steps depending on the movement of your arms, when you are driving or for example when your tracker is close to a fan. In these scenarios, your tracker counts steps due to the vibrations. You can learn more about how your Fitbit tracks steps by checking out this post. By any chance, were there any kind of vibration where you left your tracker?

Thanks for your help @Glenmcd.
