People receiving calls from my number I've not dialed/called
Ever since I've joined smarty ( not even a month) I've had 3 such instances of this.
Can someone please explain this apparent data breach in the system, or does it fall into another category when our personal, should be private numbers are randomly ghost calling complete strangers?
Just to add I have never experienced this on any other network, such as, ee,, giff gaff, three, Virginia.

Sounds like fraudsters / scammers have spoofed your number and called these people, DarrenP_2500004.

Why is it that I've only experienced this since coming to Smarty?
Is this a security issue with smarty systems or are they randomly spoofed by bots somehow.
Just curious as I've never had this before?

I'd suspect fraudsters / scammers choose numbers randomly, DarrenP_2500004.
