Is SpoofCard Legal?
UNITED STATES

Each of the capabilities of SpoofCard is legal in the US. However, certain uses may be illegal depending on which state you are calling from or to. For example, a handful of states have passed laws that make it illegal to spoof caller ID for certain purposes, such as "to mislead, defraud or deceive the recipient of a telephone call." Before using the spoofing capability of SpoofCard, you should determine whether the use you will make of the service is legal in the state where you are calling from and the state where the party you are calling is located.

In addition, it is illegal under the law of numerous states to record a telephone call without informing the other party that the call is being recorded. Before using the recording capability of SpoofCard, you should determine whether it is legal in the state where you are calling from and the state where the party you are calling is located to record the call without informing the called party. If you do not know whether such recording is legal in both states, you should protect yourself from possible state criminal prosecution by informing the other party that you are recording the conversation. SpoofCard cannot monitor conversations to determine whether they are being legally spoofed or recorded. SpoofCard disclaims any and all liability or responsibility for your use of the Card's spoofing or recording capability.

Using SpoofCard
Can I spoof internationally with SpoofCard?
Yes, SpoofCard now offers international calling capabilities! But make sure that you have read all these FAQs so that you understand the risks and responsibilities of using SpoofCard internationally.

SpoofCard is able to offer clients the ability to make international calls without displaying their actual caller ID. However, the spoofed Caller ID you choose will only be displayed properly in countries where the caller ID technology used is compatible with the caller ID signaling system used in the United States. If the technology in the called country is not compatible, there will be no caller ID or a different caller ID than the one you have selected will appear.
How do I upgrade my account to allow international calling?
In order to enable spoofing to destinations which are priced higher then 1 credit per minute, you must first authenticate your account. To authenticate your account, login with your PIN and click on "Authenticate My Account". We will apply a small refund to your credit card. Upon verifying the amount refunded to your credit card, your status will be authenticated and you will then be allowed to spoof to destinations priced higher then 1 credit.
What are some examples of SpoofCard users?

For example, business professionals such as doctors can return calls using their personal telephones without disclosing phone numbers they prefer to keep private.

Can I spoof any number and have it show up on the Caller ID?
For calls to North America, almost any 10 digit number can be used as the caller ID. Not only will the number show up, but if the called party subscribes to a commercial caller ID service the "Caller ID Name" registered for that number will also automatically appear. However, not all numbers can be spoofed. To prevent fraud, impersonation of police officers, and other criminal behavior, our servers are programmed to prevent the spoofing of certain numbers – such as 911 and certain numbers belonging to law enforcement agencies and financial institutions.
What number will show up on the phone bill of the person whom I call?
Whatever number you enter as the spoof number will show up on the bill of the person you called. They won't ever see your actual phone number!

SpoofCard Privacy
Can calls be traced back to me by the person I am calling?
No. That person will only see the spoofed Caller ID.
How safe is my data?
All information which passes between our servers and your computer is encrypted using a technology called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), the same technology that banks use to protect data. In addition, we keep your account’s financial, personal and call records confidential. However, if there is illegal activity and we are served with a subpoena, we will cooperate with the court or law enforcement agency.
