The Truth in Caller ID Act of 2009 is a United States federal law that was enacted to prohibit the use of misleading or inaccurate caller ID information with the intent to defraud, cause harm, or wrongfully obtain anything of value. Specifically, the law makes it illegal to spoof caller ID information—meaning it is against the law to deliberately falsify the information that appears on a recipient's caller ID display to mislead them about the identity of the caller.
