Not to be a party crasher, but

aint it ILLEGAL to DO that with "intention" of impersonating without
permission ?

listen.. if you think its legal..

call the cops with theyr own number and ask them

call telco with theyr own number

impsersonating..

Thats seem to pattern match the definition/.

now impersonate, lets say the bank and call your friend..

on a legal point of view.. the bank can/could sue since your are using
it's credentials "WITHOUT PERMISSION" which is the keyword of the day.

TELCO generates this callerid of yours because you got a contract and /or
implicitely give them permission to do it.


HOWEVER if telco used that to call your visa card company and get your
balance or make transactions i dont think it would be in a "AUP" kind of
way
