The phone rang the other day and my name and telephone # came up. How can this be?

Question

I was describing how I thought my house was haunted. I was busy typing and I let it ring. Later on, I checked and it said my name and

telephone on the called ID. I'm absolutely not kidding. How can that

happen- realistically speaking.

Answer 1

I saw on the news that there are some techniques that callers do to make anything come up on your Caller ID. Someone you know must know that technique, which made your information come up on your Caller ID.

Answer 2

It is called Caller ID spoofing.
