Caller ID Spoofing - FEE FREE, using the Caller ID Manager
How Caller ID Spoofing works:
|
Caller ID Spoofing, a service mostly used by law enforcement, private
investigation and collection agencies, is now made widely available
to anyone for a small fee, without breaking the law.
Through these services, anyone calling your phone can now display
a number of their choosing on your Caller ID, no matter where they
are calling from. This means that anyone calling from anywhere in
the world can use an innocent Caller ID to entice you to either answer
your phone or have you return a call.
For instance, low cost marketing companies from overseas can now blanket
a calling area, presenting your local prefix or area code, which you
are more likely to answer or call back. If you answer, you'll be presented
with a sales pitch, survey, asked for a donation, etc. If you call
back based on the Caller ID information, you will be swiftly and invisibly
transfered to their call center, either in the the U.S. or overseas.
How to protect yourself and family from Caller ID Spoofing:
Caller ID spoofing can be easily defeated using a simple device called
the Caller ID Manager.
This device offers the ability to either allow all callers and block
some, or block all callers and 'Invite' some. Using the 'Wildcard'
feature, you can also 'Invite' or 'Exclude' entire area codes, prefixes
and number sets.
With the Caller ID Manager, you decide who can ring your phone,
and when, without incurring any additional call
blocking fees from your telephone service provider.
