can someone receive my personal text messages onto their device ? The other night I was texting my roommate. Every time I sent message the tone would ping in the living room, so I asked her if she was in the living room (hear ping) she says no (hear ping and my personal phone’s notification) so I started just sending a . And continued to hear the pings in the living room. To which it was a friends daughter “sleeping” on the couch. On top of all that I have been checking my phone for any apps that I didn’t install and in my call log it says I am calling number (a lot of times 19) that I have not called and no my phone was with me at the time. I’m concerned that said daughter is intercepting my phones info . Is that possible?

To receive an iMessage it would have to be signed into the same Apple ID as you plus using something like Continuity. To receive SMS, or to make a phone call on another device, it would have to be using the same telephone number. Either are unlikely. In the case of the ID:

If you think this is definitely linked to her presence, have you considered asking her about it?
