Cell phone mac flapping

So having a weird issue. Our netgear switches are showing a loop being detected on uplink ports. The uplink traces backup to our main server room on a cisco switch. If I do show log, I get the below image. I looked up the mac address in our meraki firewall and that is a cell phone. Port 23 is our Meraki Firewall and port 50 is an uplink to another switch.

Going to the other switch, I do show logs and I see it along with other devices (some of which are also cell phones, still working on the other ones) So the one ending in 631f, it looks like its bouncing between port 2 ( Access point) Port 6 (I don't even see a port 6 in cdp/lldp neigh list), Port 48 (Uplink to another switch) , Port 49 (uplink to the previous switch in the first photo)

So following port 48 to the uplink switch, I do the same thing there and this is where it gets weird for me. It's flapping between ports 2 and 24. Which show up in both LLDP and CDP neigh show commands but there are two port 2? One shows Gi1/0/2 and the other shows Gig 1/0/2 I don't have access to SW10715 as of yet but the SEP00... that is a cisco ip desk phone. So I guess I'm just wondering if 

1. Is this the "loop" that's being spammed on my netgear switch? It seems to be a cellphone so I would imagine that mac address is going from place to place however, there are plenty of people with cellphones so I feel like this would be loaded with those but its primarily just that mac address. 

2. On cisco is there a difference betwween Gi 1/0/2 and Gig 1/0/2?
