does google transfer CID?
« on: January 27, 2007, 03:22:41 PM »
I'm going to use google's call feature to prank a business and want to know it it will transfer my CID or ANI? I dont care right now since I'm having google connect me through my  transfer number and I dont really care if they get that number. but they could subpena the company I'm subscribed with and get info from me that way... so I want to play it safe... kinda.

Yes, it sends your CID to them, same as it sends their CID to you.

oh well... and *67 doesn't work so I guess i'll have to just use my transfer number... but its weird, the service i'm subscribed to asks for their name and sometimes they give it to me or they ask "what?" and usually i'm transfered to a representative by the time i get the call.

  • One plus the number means long distance!

not to mention everything through google now is being filtered, so don't get too carried away with the crank, keep it funny, not threatening. :)

I'm not. Can someone please give me a recording saying  "hello? oh can you hold on for one moment? sorry." I have nothing to record with... basically when they pick up the phone it transfers to me and I dont want them hearing a ring or they'll be suspicious.


the service supports ringshare if you're wondering. so if I change it they wont hear a ring. and leave a good 30 seconds after the talking, or if you dont feel like I'm awesome, you dont have to and I can do it with audacity. But I feel like i'm awesome... because i'm me. And by feeling myself, i feel awesomeness.

I'm gonna go feel myself in the bathroom now.
