Is that possible without a pairing request or at least seeing or hearing something on either the iPhone or the bluetooth speaker phone?
I wouldn't think this is possible on the iPhone. While someone could spoof your headset and possibly connect to your iPhone, audio is only routed to Bluetooth when you're on a call or listening to music through a Bluetooth accessory. Other than this, the iPhone's microphone isn't active, to my knowledge, so someone couldn't just listen in to you randomly when you're not on a call or listening to music.
