Text Message sent to me went to another person

I have an iphone 4S and my network provider is O2.
Yesterday at 11.00am a friend replied to a text I had sent to him the previous day. He uses a Blackberry and his network provider is TMobile. His phone clearly shows that the text was sent to me At 2.00pm it arrived on a phone of a stranger who had called him earlier that day. I never received the text at all.
The stranger's mobile telephone number was not in his contacts and he replied to me directly from my last message.
How can this have happened? It is extremely worrying and my friend is now paranoid about sending any texts.

That is more than likely a network issue and I recommend you contact your wireless carrier to inquire as well as have your friend contact his and do the same.
