Same phone number/various receivers of my calls

Our family carrier is Verizon. Calls made from iPhones to a daughter's number have been answered by different people who do not know my daughter. We are dialing daughter's phone number; her number and name appear on our phones when we call. A friend of our daughter has also dialed her number and an unknown person answers. 4 different people have answered her phone. What can cause this?

If that happened to me, I would check two things:

  • Seek assistance from Verizon. Describe the issue in detail and hear their advice.
  • If these are actually FaceTime calls, it’s possible they are being sent to her Apple ID. If that Apple ID were ever compromised, that would explain this behavior.
