Hello niya_nue,


That's definitely unexpected behavior from your iPhone. If you are not seeing the call logs that show a call was sent, then it is likely not actually coming from your iPhone. Is it possible your number has been spoofed? This article explains more about how phony calls and other issues like this work: Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support.


It might be good to reach out to your wireless carrier and find out if the calls are actually being placed on your number or not, since they don't show on your iPhone log.


We hope this helps. Let us know if we can assist with anything else at all. Take care.
