Nuisance calls

Have you guys encountered the "phishing" calls where a computer can literally dial someone from YOUR number (or at least it looks like your number on caller ID)

so you get a scammer/telemarketer call, from a familiar area code #, and you answer it, BUT.... that # is actually a local persons #.

my grandmother got a call from another church going old lady that lives up the street (according to caller id) ...so she answered. came up on ID and everything. But it was a scammer.
Yes, I had my number calling me once. Then other calls from our own town. Pisses me off. Kim
