Pls help. I think somebody (I don't know who for now) tapped my phone..

Coz I've had instances where some of my conversations were replayed by friends that ordinarily ought not to know I had a conversation about a certain topic.

Could it be my phone or number is secretly recording my calls and sending it to another number?

Pls, how do I handle this issue? How do I find out who and possible ways to stop this mess..

First, you didn't state the phone brand and model. Second, you've not indicated if both outgoing and incoming calls are being recorded or one of the two.

From your explanation, I'd say that remote tapping is less likely but not impossible. Logically, someone eavesdropping on your calls wouldn't jeopardize the secret nature of his action by sending them to your friends unless it is for the sake of blackmail inwhich case he/she would be selective of which conversation to go viral.

Here is what's probably happening:
1. Your phone might have an auto call recording app that obviously saves your recorded calls locally either in .3gpp, ,wav, .amr or.mp3 format such that the files are accessible through apps like Xender. So, say your friend picks up your phone to get your latest music and video files using xender. They might end up sending batch files containing the records.

2. You have a security app/feature on your phone that can be triggered in a way to record the phone's environment even during calls and have it broadcasted to either a relative's or friend's mobile.
