Now days caller-id really can't be trusted to show a valid number from which the call originated from.
If you recognize a number and know the preson it belongs to, it is probably for real. But, for people who don't want you to know their real phone number it is very easy to Spoof caller-id. There are services that allow people to call and spoof their numbers through the service. And, if they run their own PBX, IP-PBX, and some VoIP services, then the user is often able to set their caller-id to any value they want.
