My phone is dialing a number every minute

[Android Central Question]

I have Samsung Galaxy A50 and one day it probably turned on in my pocket and did something that caused it to call my friend's number+ "#00*" so xxx xxx xxx #00*

Sometimes the intervals are 5 minutes, 2 hours but most of the time 1 minute and pretty random.

I couldn't find any feature that could have caused it, please does anyone know how to stop it? It renders the phone pretty useless. Thanks for any advice.

Welcome to Android Central! Does this also happen in Safe Mode? https://www.hardreset.info/devices/samsung/samsung-galaxy-a50/safe-mode/
