I took the fit bit off early last night. It's been sitting on my nightstand. No one has touched it. This morning it says I've walked 148 steps. It seems to record many more steps than I actually take while wearing it also.

@JiCaLa It's great to see that you've visited the Fitbit Community! Sorry for the delay in my reply.
Let me help you with your Inspire step count. These few steps may have been detected due to a nearby vibration (a computer, ac unit, fan and other appliances may cause this vibration) or also the tracker's alarm could have caused this. Your device will detect the movement on your arm and translate that movement into steps. There are situations in which your arm may move but you won't be actually walking. For example, this may happen when you are playing the drums, burping a baby or clapping. It can also happen when driving. You can negate these steps by logging a driving activity. You can try wearing your device on your non dominant hand but select that hand as dominant on the device’s settings to make it less sensitive to movement.
Let me know how it goes.
