Case in point: My typical cell phone bill is approx. $96. Several months ago I received a bill for OVER $15,000. There were suspicious calls to and from Morocco in my phone record. ATT was able to correct and eliminate the erroneous charges, BUT CONTACT YOUR PHONE PROVIDER NOW, and make sure there are no issues with your phone line.
