Well since neither the caller id info nor the CLID are generated by any
on premise equipment -- the only thing you would have to worry about is
someone playing switch pranks...and even then I dont think you could
''spoof'' a circuit since a bri's cid is its ''phone number'' which is
the broadcast ascii string.
And I dont believe the switch will pass clid packets straight through
anyway, even if you did come up with someway to generate them on premise.
So -- my answer would be no, not by any technical means that I can think of.
