Has my mobile number been cloned?

[HP711]

I have received some phone calls from people claiming that they have had missed calls from my number. However I don’t know these people and I haven’t called them from my phone. There is also no outgoing calls to these numbers on my phone. 
When I looked up how this might have happened mobile number cloning was the first subject that came up. 

Can anyone from EE shed any light on this as I want to make sure I’m secure and my details are safe.

@HP711  your number or Sim card has not been cloned somebody spoofing your number to make look it look like you’ve called these numbers.   Hopefully they’ll get bored of it and move on. Alternatively you could request EE change your phone number.

Hi @HP711 

To add to @Chris_B  comments. This used to be an EE network issue of the past. Occasionally phantom missed called appear. It used to happen more after using WiFi calling. (It has happened to me in the past).

Try restarting your device. 

Thanks

I'm having the exact same thing at the moment. Getting around 5 a week from random numbers saying I've rang them. I asked the latest one today what time I called and the number. It was definitely my number I hadn't made the call. After researching it looks like scammers are using cloning my number. Hopefully it stops soon as per the advice you were given. Have yours stopped and how long did it go on for? Prety annoying that we can't stop them, and I don't want to change my number.
