The problem is there is legitimate reason to spoof CID.

VOIP is one. I also have the ability to do it when I make a call from my work cell to have it display the city switchboard so people both aren't calling me when I'm off duty, but also so that the people receiving calls see a call from the City, not from some random dude.
