Phone cloned?

Hi wondering if someone can check to see if my phone has been cloned or hacked? Got a weird phone call and just want to make sure everything is OK. Thanks

@Teets1974 it's probably been spoofed. If you think you have been hacked? Then log into your self service account and see if there is any unusual activity. And change your self service account password. Stay safe.

What kind of call was it?

It may have been a spoofed call. For example if you go to prankowl.com you can send a funny message to someone and make the caller id show as any number.

@Teets1974 , phone numbers can be spoofed. Phone cloning would imply copying the IMEI from one phone to another which is illegal.
