Caller ID spoofing is the act of making the telephone network to display any desired (Fake) number on the recipient’s Caller ID display unit instead of the original number. The Caller ID spoofing can make a call appear to have come from any phone number that the caller wishes.

Unlike what most people think, an incoming call may not be from the number that is displayed on the Caller ID display unit. Because of the high trust that the people have in the Caller ID system, it is possible for the caller to easily fool them and make them believe that the number displayed on the Caller ID display is real. This is all possible through Caller ID spoofing.

However sites like SpoofCard provide an easy and cheap spoofing services for those who aren’t using VOIP systems that they can configure themselves.
