Random FaceTime?

So something weird happened to me, I was on a FaceTime call with my friend and suddenly 3 random numbers started to FaceTime call me? Has anyone else had this happen? Should I be worried? Does it have something to do with the new IOS? One of my friends has also been getting texts with like a foreign language from one of their contacts but the contact says that she doesn’t see it?

For FaceTime, if you are getting calls from random numbers, it probably indicates that somehow they found your phone number. Sort of like a robo-call scam/phishing call. There isn't much you can do to stop that.


For the text messages, from phone numbers/addresses can be spoofed.
