I'm in the US currently and incoming calls occassionally come with an incorrect caller ID where the international country code is simply omitted.
So a German number starting with +491573.... (a mobile number) turns into +1573... and so appears to be originating from Missouri, USA.
This issue has occured in the past but what's really interesting is what customer care say about it:

Dear Inquisitor,
This email is being written with reference to the caller ID issue.
Further to your email, we would like to let you know that incoming calls may not be identified with the country code sometimes and this sort of connectivity changes can be discussed in a larger context however it is not an issue.
The Destination numbers mentioned on the email are the same.
+491573xxxxxxx
+1573xxxxxxx

How can it not be an issue when I cannot distinguish which continent is a call coming from?
