I mean I have unlimited data so I don't really care.

You still may want to call and figure it out. You could end up throttled in the near future.

He'd have to be downloading at peak bandwidth (1.5mbps) for an hour straight to produce that level of traffic. Worth investigating, but I'd think that there could be a bug in the display as well.
Ouch! Yeah, even if you had no way of attaining that, you will want to call and straighten out everything. Best of luck!
I find it odd that the Sent & Received stats are exactly the same. Haven't seen that before, IME.
I looked at the usage on my CDMA iPhone and I have 4 gigs of received data, also; however, it is apparent that this information is from my backup, as my new phone already has a call life of 3 Days.

Don't worry, mine said the same thing and I know I have not used a fraction of that much data.
Just reset everything.

Dial *3282# and wait for the resulting text message.
The numbers there are what the CARRIER thinks you have used. This is what you should worry about.

This is a relatively common glitch in iOS.
Not sure what triggers it, but I've seen the usage meter jump up far beyond the data usage since I got an iPhone.
As others have said the other possibility is that you have carried data over from a backup, although if this is your first iPhone that wont be the case.

I have found that under my usage stats it often says I've used more data than what my carrier says I've used. Nothing to that extreme however haha

The carrier's number is usually out of date by a few hours, so it'll generally be smaller. If you stay on Wifi for about 24 hours, they should match up fairly well.

Like I said I'm not worried. There was no previous backup ive never had an iPhone before. I also thought it could have been tested at the factory and it could be from that but it's unlikely. I reset my usage stats and it is calculating normally at this point. So again no worries it was just strange to see

Its #3282 to get the text or #DATA, not *3282#
