hacked PABX routing calls to MITM and generate money from fees?

Did the actual number show up as from Germany (+49) or was it shown as 04 but with Germany shown in text?

Considering +649 is Auckland, Id say its routing through an Auckland PABX which is excluding presenting the 6 for some reason.

Geektastic: I had a call from a car dealer (big one) in Wellington and it showed up on my phone as being from Germany. The caller was as surprised as I was.

Why would that happen?

It was BMW, Audi or Merc?

Don't mention the war.

My best mate is German...he often says that in a very exaggerated German accent - he finds Fawlty Towers humour to be somewhat hilarious. 

Could be an issue with the VAR Telco routing. I've never used 2Talk, but I would imagine the same thing could happen to them.

I regularly call AU from NZ using a softphone from RingCentral loaded onto my computer. There have been numerous instances where the recipient of my call mentioned that it came through as a US call.
