It could happen. Relatives of mine experienced supernatural occurrences after the death of loved ones. This wouldn't surprise me.

When I had a company issued phone I occasionally got spam calls from phone numbers similar to company numbers (same area code and same first three digits). I never got multiple calls from the same spam number, and never from a familiar number.
I'm sorry for your family's loss. |

I haven't experienced that particularly, but I've seen enough supernatural events that I believe you.

Sorry for your loss and not sure what to say. Phone number spoofs can happen. Although that is odd. I am not sure that I believe although my youngest son when he was 3 spoke told me he loved his grandma Ann one morning. I asked what he said since I must have misheard him and he said she played with me in my room. She died 3 years before he was born and we really don’t speak about her much. Freaked wife out.

I'm sorry for your loss OP and totally believe that our loved ones do send us a message from time to time.
The night my father died I was 2000 miles away and fast asleep. Something woke me up in the middle of the night and I looked at my wife and said "I need to call my Dad in the morning". My wife was very close to one of her uncles and one night we were watching TV when a picture of him fell off the wall. He had passed about an hour before. |

Mrballen did a video a while back about a 911 center repeatedly getting calls from a dead woman for a year after she died. The way he described it, the phone company confirmed to LE that calls were being placed from the house’s landline, but the line wasn’t even hooked up.
I don’t know. |

I will often set texts to send in the future. Can you program calls the same way? The call on her birthday is something I would set a reminder for (but not an auto call).

Sorry for your loss. Also lost my Dad in April and a sister in June. My sister said she would leave signs. Her sign to me is a bald eagle. Shortly after she died, I found an injured bald eagle at my Dad’s farm. Eagle sanctuary in Minneapolis said they would come down the following morning. I got within two feet of the eagle, he starred at me for the longest time. Eagle died overnight. Sister had cancer and couldn’t be fixed. Eagle was injured and couldn’t be fixed. I cried while I buried the eagle.
Hope you are well.. Dan |

My mom keeps her and my dads phone active and both in her purse.
She just grabs whichever one to text. I should probably just change my dads name to mom also in my phone. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: There is a lot we don't know or understand So true. When my son died, his best friend in Peru received a strange phone call that he believes was from my son within about an hour after Matt was gone. He told me about it, but at the time my mind was so fried I don't remember the details. My son has been back, once when his sister was in Oklahoma and he has been back to my house in Key West as well as the new one in Lakeland Highlands. There have been two instances of physical "events" (items being moved) that we are sure were him. He is not around so much now, but my grandkids (not his children, he had none) have been spitting babies out over the last two years, so he may be back. If so,I hope he remembers so we can say hi. I've posted about it before but one of my grandsons when he was about four or so told me about he had died before when his dad was his brother. I believed him. A lot of people laugh and think you are wacko, but if you have ever had an unexplained event, seen a UFO, or whatever, you will never laugh at the "wackos" again. OP, I am sorry for your loss. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: There is a lot we don't know or understand Our loved ones do try to communicate. Thers is much more to it than we understand... My wife died last February. Twice while texting her sister over the summer, messages wrote themselves on my phone without input on my part. Another one wrote on her sisters phone. Somewhat garbled, but understandable also. These messages also disappeared from the text log within days, while normal texts did not. |

I once got a spam call from a number that spoofed my moms cell. Only reason i picked up the phone was cuz it said "Mom". When i did it was an autobot asking about something or other.

Quoted: My mom's phone has received two missed calls from my dad's phone since he died last April. She has kept his phone active in case any old friends or businesses call that didn't know he passed. It is usually in their office on a charger. She was going through the call history on her phone the other day and found two missed calls from his phone. One a few weeks ago when she was having an especially hard time with his loss, and one on her birthday. She checked his phone and found that there were in fact calls placed from his phone at those times. She lives by herself and does not have visitors besides me. There is no logical explanation that I can think of. REMOVED |

I’ve had phone calls to my cell phone FROM my cell number. Scammers.
I’ve also seen a couple supernatural events. The strangest phone event I heard of was in 1987 when an Air Force A-7 lost its engine, tried to land at Indianapolis International but wasn’t going to make it. The pilot ejected and the aircraft slammed into the Airport Ramada Inn. The young bell hop phoned his mom from the pay phone in the lobby—10 minutes after the aircraft hit squarely in the lobby. He told her he was ok and would be home soon. Obviously he couldn’t have made the call. The phone company verified the number of the pay phone and the time of the call. Weird. Too much strange stuff like that out there for there not to be other dimensions, IMO. TC |

When I was in high school, there was a terrible accident involving four kids out joyriding. The car left the road and all but one of the occupants were ejected from the vehicle. Two died, a boy and a girl. One girl survived but remained in a vegetative state.
Only one girl survived unharmed. She had been sitting in the back seat, wearing a seat belt. Years later, I would become good friends with that girl, and she told me two things about the accident. The first was that she went to visit the other surviving girl regularly. She was in a care facility and had diminished mental capabilities due to brain damage. The second thing she told me was that every now and then, the dead girl would call her house phone. She was not one to exaggerate, and I believed her. |

About a dozen years ago my mom passed after a long bout with Alzheimer's. A couple of weeks after I was working in her house to prep it for sale. The land line phone rang, one long non stop ring. Cell phones were rare, she wouldn't have known what to do with one anyway. Number spoofing and nuisance calls just didn't happen. After 30 seconds of ring, I picked it up. It was an open but somewhat noisy line. I said her name and "It's time to rest. Jesus is waiting for you." Then the line went dead with a click. The phone never rang again.

Its just spoof calling though. These scammers have figured out how to make their phone number look local and somehow theyve made it look like his number. It could even be some weird call forwarding thing. |

Thank you everyone for the condolences. It's been a tough year.
Another thing to add. My dad was a heavy smoker, which contributed to his young death. He never smoked inside their current house. There are times when my mom feels his presence and smells cigarette smoke. When this happens, their dog also starts sniffing and gets excited and runs around looking for him. |

while I’m not inclined to believe supernatural events in general, after my mom died roughly 3 months later I had a vivid dream where we bumped into to each other in a crowded stadium and she quickly thanked me for all the help I gave her at the end of her life and quickly vanished in the swirl of the crowd
that dream shook my world, woke up crying, got emotional in the retelling to others. now it could be just a dream in a grieving sons mind but I swear it was her thanking me from somewhere |

I've had about 6 since my wife passed that I can vividly remember. Our daughter says she's had a couple also. I really think we aren't meant to understand why these things happen, but that doesn't mean they aren't real. |
