"Do you have caller I.D to research where the number is from ?"

I had a collection company call my home number looking for a friend of mine. My friend had only used my name and number once for a government job reference. This call showed up on my caller ID as a number from Auburn, NY, but when I questioned the caller about it, she said she wasn't in Auburn. So it's obvious that they change numbers regularly to disguise who they are, and where they are calling from.

I've gotten some spam calls on my cell phone regarding my credit card account. It's usually a recording, or can show up as a text message. They don't offer any bank name, and although the area code (Florida) remains the same, the number itself changes digits. I've managed to block most of these calls through Verizon online, but the blocks are only good for 3 months, and have to be renewed. Online searches for the numbers calling me have found complaints from other folks who have gotten these calls from these same numbers.
