If you have never heard tell of caller id spoofing, it is what is done when someone changes their caller id information before calling you. When they do call you, the changed information is shown instead of the real caller id information. This can be done through a number of businesses that provide caller id spoof cards.
A very clever way to use these caller id spoofers is to call certain people pretending to be someone else. This is solidified by the fake caller id displayed and can really be very convincing. Imagine phoning someone and making believe that you are a movie star or something similar and spoofing the caller id to look like this too.
Often times caller id spoofing can be used in investigations to help the people that are being watched into giving up valuable information up to someone that they think they are talking to but actually are not.
There have even been times that debt collectors, who are working to get a hold of their late payment accounts that are owing money, have used this service to change their caller id information being displayed in order to get their calls answered.
Now you might believe that just disguising caller id information is enough. Well, actually it sometimes isn't. That's why some id spoof businesses even have the ability to record the phone call and have built-in voice modifiers to make it simple to disguise your voice.
It's important to know that sometimes when the telephone rings, it may not always be the caller that the caller id says that it is. Looks can be deceiving!
