View originalCaller ID spoofing is a massive issue that probably will not be resolved in the near future. Most of these spoofing number calls come from international locations and more so, overseas.
1. You can't.
2. You can't.
3. You can't.
Unfortunately, caller ID was not designed with security in mind and is easily spoofed. It will take a redesign of the caller ID system to fix the problem.
I’ve had several calls lately where people say I called but I didn’t. What can I do stop these ‘spoofing’ calls?
I just started experiencing that once yesterday and three times today so far. This is ridiculous. I filled an FCC complaint but that doesn't really do anything. Anyone else have any luck resolving this issue? Suggestions are welcomed. Thank you in advance!

It turned out that in this case, the spoofing happened using my vonage line
not my mobile line.
I changed my vonage password and reloaded the app.
Not sure whether they got to my phone list or had some other way of knowing
the the people called were associated with me.

The wording of your post makes it sound like you work for T-M9bile but you do not have the Employee Signature. Are you a T-Mobile employee?
Knowing exactly how to spoof a number, I can tell you that there is nothing T-Mobile can do with the current implementation to 100% stop Caller ID spoofing. As mentiined by another member, it is the current implementation of Caller ID and how it works that is flawed.
In many cases, they just don't want their calls to be reported to the "Don't Call" police. They grab numbers at random. In some cases they could be more targeted, exploiting some security flaw to get your address book and call your friends, pretending to be you. Just like spamers like to get your e-mail address book to pretend to send e-mail's from you. (e.g. "Help, I was robbed in Timbuktu and....") In any case, there's nothing you can do to prevent someone from spoofing your caller ID. The system's just too insecure.
