It just seems weird that TMobile has no records of these calls. If it was really originating from your N900, there should be some record of it at your mobile provider, even if your phone had no record of it...
Yeah, I vote for this explanation. Robocalls going to some of your contacts from some web service which sold / gave / lost these details.

We have email spam, fax spam and phone spam so why not. There are a lot of services that can spoof phone numbers, making it appear to come from you. If they also have some of your contacts...

Got google voice? Google voice bug in their merging with Gizmo5 showing up in your contacts being called?

Since no-one else has reported this for the N900, and this is a N900 discussion subforum I think thatīs even more likely.

Yep. Google voice is likely the culprit:

If you can manage to do so, I would be interested to see what happens if you take the SIM out of the N900 and/or power it off, and see if the phantom calls still occur.

I have not had anybody calling me and complaining about miss calls or calling them and not talking.
Checked my google voice no records in their either.

No I have no skype account and I do not have any SIP configured.

And the weird thing is none of my contacts have my google voice number. and when you call using google voice; it shows google voice number on the caller ID, how did my contacts know that it was me??

Mine started doing this yesterday... called my friend three times... called another one that I have not talked to in months. I wonder how it selects the numbers from the list of contacts.

Where was the device at these times? (Rule out accidents.)
Are these calls registered at your op?
Are these calls in your call history on the N900?
