When receiving a FaceTime call from my girlfriend I pick up and it’s not her.

I was having issues connecting on a FaceTime call with my girlfriend. I reset my network settings worked for a little and we lost connection. I then turned on WiFi roaming, and connected my email to my FaceTime to try and call her through that. I also tried calling through my iPad. We finally end up connected but as I’m on the phone with her on FaceTime, I get a FaceTime call from her contact, I pick it up, it’s her, this keeps happening right. We get freaked out and hang up. Then I receive a call from her number, and pick it up, it’s a black screen not saying anything. I hang up. Her contact with her name calls me again I pick it up and I see a blurry image like if someone is covering the camera. I ask her if she called me, and she did not. I’m not sure if my Apple ID is compromised, I changed the password and added the security key. Turned off my FaceTime, turned it back on and called her and she picked up fine. Then I get another call from her contact while on ft with her and pick it up and it brings me back into a call with her. I don’t know what is happening.

this is a call from her contact but it’s clearly not her.

this is me getting a call from her contact while already on FaceTime with her, but she did not make it and it’s not even possible to call while on a call without ending it first.


I changed my Apple ID password and she changed hers but it happened again when I was on FaceTime with her, got a call from her picked it up and it brought us back into a call, but why is this happening?

Hi there Fakefacetimecall,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you are getting some suspicious FaceTime calls that appear to be from your girlfriend. We can certainly understand your concern. Does this only happen when you and your girlfriend are trying to contact each other? Does this ever happen with any other contacts? Does this happen if your girlfriend sends a FaceTime to anyone else?


We look forward to hearing back from you.
