Unexpected Number Associated with My Phone

[Allen97]

I am experiencing an issue with my phone for a couple of weeks now. Recently, I have been receiving calls on my phone from two different numbers. One of these numbers is my original number, which ends with 2556, while the other number, ending with 7971, which is completely unfamiliar to me.

This situation is quite concerning, as I have not authorized any additional numbers to be associated with my SIM card. I am worried about potential security and privacy implications.

Could someone please help me investigate this matter and provide a resolution? I would appreciate it if you could check if there has been any unauthorized activity or if there is any technical glitch causing this issue.

Maybe i didnt do a good job of explaining my issue. Basically, calls meant for a number ending with 7971 is coming to me, while my phone number ends with 2556.

Definitely a scammer. They sometimes use familiar or common area code numbers when they call to dupe people into believing it's a safe number. Now we can't even trust our friends, jk but I doubt your own number is calling you. Somehow they can get a familiar number and to show up when they call but I don't think they are actually using your number. It often is just on the call display label

@Allen97 , do you have a VoIP app installed on your phone with second number?  If not, use the chat symbol on the lower right corner of the web page and initiate a support ticket.
