Android Central Question

I have an Samsung s8plus, my girlfriend has an iPhone 8 plus and her iPhone has just started, out of no where as never had a problem before, sending the messages intended for my phone to a random person somewhere in the world. If she changes it to send just as a sms message it comes through. It is also happening to all my friends and families who have an iPhone. Some poor person is now receiving all my messages lol does anyone know what's happening ??? :-)
 
It's something on Apple's side. Why not just have them set you as an SMS-only contact since you don't have an iPhone and it seems to resolve the issue? It's possible that somehow someone was able to spoof your number to associate it with Messages but trying to track that down and get it resolved may be a full-time job for a few days.

Our friends over at http://imore.com might be able to provide some insight into what's happening as they deal with Apple stuff more often.
