Popup during a live unanswered call “caller is leaving a message”

I don’t answer unrecognised numbers. A number was ringing me while watching the screen a message appeared “caller is leaving a message” I don’t have voicemail mail set up - how? Is this happening? Is this some form of a hack into my iphone? How is it possible to send a message just by making a call?

iPhone 13 mini, iOS 18

Some cellular services provide a generic voicemail service if you don’t setup your personalized voicemail. It’s worth confirming. I know AT&T used to provide the service.


The notification is a new feature related to the new Live Voicemail feature. This feature is on by default I believe.
