act with the Congress and the Senate to enforce more stringent laws regarding phone number/caller ID spoofing

Created by J.M. on September 05, 2013

The ability for individuals and companies to hide their identity is an injustice to the American citizens. The intent of this petition is to change the term making Spoofing illegal to include the intent to deceive. This is to include the use as a joke or prank.Phone numbers of a company displaying the main number for a company should be lawful.

This is a call to make unlawful the spoofing of Caller ID, IP address, Email or phone number by any individual, organization, or company unless the use is by law enforcement.

Any intent to deceive or spoof by a companyor an individual, or any company advertising the technology to so deceive the public should be prosecutable. Victims of Identity theft by the use of their name and number on Caller ID should be able to seek justice.
