This would be entirely predicated on callerid being trustworthy. But it isn’t. At all. Some scammers who have call lists based upon surreptitiously stolen contact lists now call people ‘from’ their own contacts.
- harryf 7y agoTrue but I’d assume (at least right now) faked calledid makes up < 1% of telemarketing / scam calls. Plus the type of robocalling described in the article where they ring once and hang up wouldn’t work if you fake the callerid - you’d just get them to call back someone from their contacts
