Hijacked cell phone number, How do I deal with this?

I recently got a call from someone asking me to stop calleing them. I never did. I have heard that numbers can be cloned; how do I deal with this?

Not cloned.  Someone with a computer is spoofing your number .   It's an illegal practice, but so far difficult to stop.

They don't use a number for long, so just ride it out.  If you get calls again, just explain your number is being spoofed.
