How does Caller ID Spoofing work? (BTSS)

[@Miguel-ng5wm]

this is what I was looking for. I searched Google and youtube for how spoofing works and they all explain the obvious part. this is the perfect technical explanation thanks!

[@gano101]

Useful stuff... I'm going to start scam-baiting. Your previous video on downloading a virtual box was also awesomely practical as well. the more of the scammers time we waste the more it will hurt them and in turn prevent other less informed individuals from becoming victims.

[@GnBst]

Dude, youo don't even need to be on PRI or VOIP to spoof the CID. I remember setting this up on basic POTS lines with cheap VOIP gateways about ten years ago. Although that was legitimately setting a company name to show for clients, I am still amazed that this overrode the carrier CID. The real question is how to find the true call routing when the CID is spoofed like this.

[@djnaydee]

Appreciate it bud. Im constently getting calls from people saying "Did you just call me" arghh

[@ivanklochkov3444]

I think this has to be stopped and made illegal; the phone carriers must improve their systems to make sure that no matter how a caller tries to misrepresent themselves, only the true ID will be shown. The thing is, spoofing of caller IDs is rarely used for legal purposes; mostly scammers do it.

[@ivanklochkov3444]

@@isteal7427 Well, those ones who do it legally, could register their exceptions with their provider in advance. And such fake caller ID exceptions must be reachable to call back and reach the same organization (even though with a different phone number, for example office phone instead of cellular).

[@-Ace-of-Spades-]

@@ivanklochkov3444 Having worked in telecommunications since the mid nineties I can tell you that the 'genie is out of the bottle' in this regard. Attempting to restrict it's function to 'legitimate' users is a non-starter from a technical point of view. Even defining 'legitimate' users becomes fraught with grey areas. The vast majority of commercial systems actually use some variation of this so legislation would be far from the black and white position it may at first appear. Those that use this for their unlawful gains are certainly in the minority when you look at the total business generated worldwide.

[@bfcks]

The solution (SHAKEN/STIR) was made available several years ago (as of 2022) and it was the job of the phone companies to implement it. In 2021, T-Mobile implemented it, and other phone companies mostly followed suit. It works for cell phones receiving the calls. A checkmark appears next to or below the number, indicating that the phone company of the caller verifies that the claimed Caller ID is the same as the phone line from which the call is coming. So, you'll see the number on your cell phone, and if it has a checkmark (tick for UK) it indicates that's really where the call is coming from. If your phone doesn't know who that number belongs to, then you'll just see the number, but if the number is unverified, your provider might display below the number "potential scammer." The scammers, as this video above says, are their own phone company, which won't have a relationship with T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon, etc. If the bad guys' VoIP service DID start providing ID info to T-Mobile, for example, so that the number WAS "verified," as soon as T-Mo discovered the bad data, they could stop accepting data from the VoIP service. In effect, they're not going to play whack-a-mole, and numbers will only be trusted if they come from another big phone company.

Let’s stop the production of knifes and guns as they get used to kill people. Let’s stop the production of rope as people use it to hang themselves too.

[@sueannbustos2990]

My husbands ex has been calling him like this. I’m still not sure how it all works because I’m not technically inclined but it took me a year to figure out who he was cheating on me with and come to find out, it’s his ex wife…. It’s just a matter of days before i confront him about this.💣💀

[@magwan77]

So easy. I got about 100 calls today starting at 7:30am from people who got calls from my number and were calling back to see what I wanted. Clearly its easy to do this to someone so question: How do I find out who is actually making the calls and get my phone number caller ID away from them?

[@stokesseegers5012]

That's a scammer using your phone number call people. A fraction of the people they called from your number we're returning a phone call.

[@switchunboxing]

Is it true that when you get a call and answer and there’s silence, it means they’re trying to see if you’re an actual active person, or they’re waiting for you to talk so they can steal your voice or your name?

[@robert5]

first thing on my recorded message system is that tone that plays when you call a number that is no longer in service. they call it a sit tone. everyone who knows me knows this. telemarketers or people who don't know me think my number is invalid and just hang up. You can find that sit tone if you want it. These days I don't know how well it still works but I have had that setup for over 15 yrs. I still have plenty of telemarketers calling me so I set my ringtone to silence. If I don't already have you in my address book your call wont make my phone ring. So... FU Telemarketers... you cant bother me.

[@victoryfirst2878]

Now I know the story. This is just great information given to the masses. Thanks too.

[@HouseCallAutoRepair]

Yep... paying to block your mom, dad, son, daughter, sister, brother, etc because a SPOOFER used THEIR NUMBER! The rabbit hole goes quite deep and the SCAMMERS are exploiting it. THINK about the DAMAGE!!!

[@socomsfinest1184]

The u.s. Congress need to federally go after the makers of these things. Also threaten sanctions and freeze accounts of people from countries like India if they dont stop these people. This is a huge economic threat to America and the world.

[@terriecotham1567]

Thanks, it was quite simple to understand just how easy it is for the scammers I remember the Story on 60 minutes of the woman in the DOJ I thank who was scammed out of a large sum of cash many years ago and each call I thank show up as a real IRS number. thanks

[@ScreenPrintR]

Back in the Day scammers would call the numbers to see who answered and see if they can hack the voicemail password. Than they'd re-record the message. i.e. Yes operator, I accept the charges. Than they'd allow people to make long distance phone calls. In big cities you'd see people lined up around a pay phone. A few thugs were there to collect your money. People are lazy and don't change their passwords or make it real easy.

[@nathanwilliams1338]

Now how can you trace the call back to find the original number of the phone they are actively using.

[@parasavneet2670]

You cant bro these are full proof but if you are experienced hacker you csn trace their ip

[@karbonkai]

@@parasavneet2670 ip's aren't linked to phone numbers

[@scottm3026]

Alex what about VoIP?

[@clashofclansshield8583]

The phone system is flawed and belongs in the 1800s. I hope they develops a new systems with proper signature validation soon. The tech is here, it just needs to be implemented across the world.

[@scottm3026]

@Alex ohhh i did not know that

[@cliffordbevans8140]

So how do we figure out where they are so we can drone strike them?

[@NessaEllenesse]

The problem is you could end up spoofing the number of someone who actually exists. As someone who has had their phone number spoofed I find this annoying. Do NOT do this. Scammers spoof the home and cell numbers of every day people.

[@diamondsam]

I can relate to you there, I had my number spoofed very recently

[@ThePeperich]

nice Video again! Suggestion for a further one: pls show how to hide system information (modell , manufacturer , bios etc.) in MS Hyper-V , there are several Vids for VM-ware or virtual Box but non for Hyper-V. I would appeciate that. Best from Germany, Pepe

[@tetunoffensive]

Wait give our information and $25 to verify...sounds like a scam lol. And that reference is dating yourself.

[@1SGPARKER]

It is interesting to know, but... Why does the telephony industry allow this monumental condition to continue without Investigating Culprits that use it for nefarious purposes?

[@Playitalready]

after hearing that song from some commercial that sells music in the 1990s, out of the blue i thought of this song while i was brushing my teeth and then i heard the number here...and that sort of stuff literally happens to me a lot.

[@troooooper100]

where can i learn about this more, like how does voip works

[@Markomyt1]

Great job. Doesn't sound like there is an effective way to identify and block the scam baiters. When I am on a call, I respond to incoming calls with a text: "I am on the other line, I will call you back" And the real person with that number responds with "Who is this?" I was hoping for a code or whistle like a fax machine to get off their autodialer.

[@kimberlysewell-siems3175]

Hello well I'm not Jenny but I would like to thank you for taking your time to explain how these scams work,I for one am very greatful!!! So thank you again

[@Worces2000]

I've been getting calls from my home area code and same first three digits I have. Is this likely a scam or spoofing?

[@prismteachings9783]

Absolutely and here's a VERY popular scam call that we keep getting that uses our home area code and the first three digits: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6u8nYyGeqyBnNU

[@ChiralSpirals]

Me too. I done been getting spoofed for almost two months with numbers like you described. Its like a daily treat. Wake up, smoke a joint, eat my cheerios fuck with a scammer.. the shits literally everyday now.

[@RAYNINGMAKER]

This is FRIGHTENINGLY easy

[@EachEverything]

Yep. Really useful for legitimate businesses though.. For example, at my company each person has a direct publicly routable (e.g. 123-555-4567) phone number, but our outbound calls masquerade as the main corporate number.

Can we trace the call spoofer ?? Kindly advise .

[@deborahcook8185]

Hello: Thank you for this video on spoofing> However, I need to ask some questions about spoofing and how we can prevent them from calling. I do know that the first ring on a landline provides the phone with all of the information it needed. I do not know how this works when a spoof call comes in. Could you comment on these issues and why the governments, phone companies, ect. do not seem to want to stop this. I do have a block on my land phone placed there by my phone company. Actually, I think the public needs to know more about this issue and what can be done about it. Thanks.

[@BusinessMan1619]

My mother's home phone receives between 5 and 15 spoofed scam phone calls almost every day.

[@andrewsaldivar2112]

stop calling Jenny... some one has been using my phone number to call others. What I have also noticed that the numbers being called are very similar to mine... wtf. People have been leaving text messages to my number telling me to stop calling them; don't know what to do.

[@RAYNINGMAKER]

Andrew Saldivar You basically can't do anything. The best thing you probably can do is chancge your phone number and tell your phone company

[@Brickstin]

Is there a way to do this for SMS? I need to recover one of my accounts but during registration I accidentally put a 3 instead of 2 so I need to reset my password using the wrong phone number that accidentally put in, I can still sign into the account using Facebook since it is verified with facebook, but I cannot update my password until I verify my phone number and because the phone number is in corect by one digit so it is stuck in verification status.
