      Yup. With VOIP, you can spoof any phone number. If this technology were fixed, 99% of spam calls would disappear, and Caller ID would be worth something again. Our government is either too lazy or bought-off to fix this problem.

      They DID enact the national Do Not Call list and created heavy fines for people who violate that list, while knowing full well that they couldn’t catch the spammers in the first place (because of VOIP spoofing).
