Blocking number for making outbound calls.....please help

Post by LiveStrong »

Hello all....NEWB here.
I once read somewhere that their was a download or something that would not only block your number from showing on the persons caller id that you are calling but also it would show their own number on their caller id....To appear as if their own phone was calling them. Can't remember or find where I saw this before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do a search on "spoofing". This was available in the early versions with the help of some clever folks. Stewart comes to mind but there were others who were instrumental in developing some scripts with very friendly GUI's to do what you're talking about.

Alas, for whatever reasons, the folks at MJ who monitor this forum didn't think it was a good idea and eliminated the ability after one of the upgrades. Lucky You!

Another service that allows you to spoof your Caller ID is "SpoofCard".

It's a paid service, and expensive, which IMHO defeats the purpose of having a magicjack.
