it seems as though credit card companies can call you and make it appear on your caller id as a random name. i almost answered today the name was so convincing BUT i googled it and sure enough it was a CC company.
i think this should be illegeal. isnt this fraud? dont they know that even if i pick up the phone i can hang up once i realize its not who i thought it was LOL.
and i wonder how they decide which names to make appear on the caller id: if calling a person in a poor community do they use a funny name no one can pronounce like shaquan*a and then when calling me in a good community use a name that sounds like one of my relatives or a next door neighbor?
