Explanation for unknown message sent from me.

Just now, I was sitting at my desk using my PC, I then got a text (iMessage) from someone that I haven't spoken to in a while, When I unlocked my phone and went to the messages with that person, I saw that I sent a message 1 minute before opening my phone with simply their name. But I hadn't even been on my phone.

So far,

I've ensured there's no automations running in shortcuts
I've ensured there's no unauthorized devices signed into my Apple ID
I've ensured nobody has accessed any of my devices.

Is there any logs or other ways I can figure out how this message was sent? or what device it was sent from?

Log into your Carrier's Site:

Apple does not keep a log of deleted messages' information. So, log into your Carrier's site, and see if you can see this in you account. Logging in myself, I can see a message log and call log going uptown 90 days back.
