Most job offers I had was over the phone and never has a company request that I ask for such a large amount over my current salary has anyone heard of this before?

I am not certain I completely follow what you are asking.
Were they making you a job offer over the phone?
Are you interviewing/accepting an offer via a third party recruiter?
Compensation at companies can be radically different. My previous company-- paid lower base salaries but offered lucrative variable pay schemes based on performance (bonuses, etc).
My new company does not offer a lot of variable pay so my base salary is significantly higher than my previous salary.
One of my best friends had the same scenario happen to her. She was making 50k then got an offer for 80k with no bonus.
