Phone called someone by itself on the charger...

My sister said she got a call from me at 3:30am and of course I wasn't on the phone since I was asleep and the phone was on the charger in the other room. It shows up on her call log but not mine. This is on Visible who I recently switched to from T-mo. She is on T-mo. Anyone ever have this happen- and should I call Visible to see what is going on? I've heard of people getting their phones cloned but I don't even know how that works. My phone has a physical sim if that matters.

Never had anything like that happen.

Were you ever living together with the same phone #s you have now? I'm wondering if some robocaller is using the "people search" sites' data to spoof caller phone # to increase odds of the called party, answering. Then again, you'd think they would call at a different time than 3AM to also increase odds of answering.

Any chance that you have a misbehaving app on your phone?

When I did some searching on the problem, it seems to be a problem with her phone- someone has gotten her contact list and is using my name and # to try to spoof her. There was no call from my phone per se, but her phone thinks it was my #. I suspect they use names that are saved as just first names since those would be family or close friends that you would normally answer.

Which phone is it? How can you rule out the possibility that there isn't some hidden malware on your phone?
I have a Pixel 6 and she has a 7. The only new app in the past year on my phone is the astronomical app Sky Map which is a highly rated app with no complaints.

What about the history of your home? Is it an old home? I'm not trying to sound ridiculous but there could be some entity in your house who likes your sis's personality and would like to have her visit more often since the entity probably can't leave the house.

Going forward, I suggest that your sis reset her phone to factory settings and then see if there are any more calls in the middle of the night.

IMO, if it doesn’t show up in your call log, the phone didn’t make the call…your number was spoofed.

From the articles I read, that is most likely the case. Someone has her contact list and is probably not a good person... I warned her to be careful since she has had stolen identity problems in the past. She does have her credit locked, which is smart.
