My mother is born april 1st. My grandpa and his brothers always prank each other all the time, so no one believed him when he called to say grandma had given birth :D

Let's just say that only a stupid person would be spam/scamcalling from their own number, so spoofing numbers to appear as someone else is the bread and butter of their operations.

>Also, they apparently have technology now to mask it as the bank which is why the name and number shows as is.

That is NOT new. That is what every organized scammer operation does.

Also, hope you get it all fixed in the end.

Thank you, I fucking hate when people expect everyone to know a non-universal acronym. Especially when you can't just google it, googling PNG does absolutely nothing.
