If he doesn't recognize the number, he ignores it. We've noticed a lot of calls are trying to disguise the fact they're coming from a boiler room in Bangladore by tacking a local area code on. Spoofing is a good way to get people to pick up. You know, when we live in the U.P. and we see a Detroit area code, we're probably going to ignore it, but if it looks like it's someone nearby? <br /><br />For what it's worth, having worked for the feds and having had to do phone calling to the public for various reasons, I can say with confidence if a government agency ever calls you it's going to come up on the caller ID as U.S. Government.
