numer presentation. So somebody might have set his number to "xxxxxxx"
and this was shown on your phone.

Every line has to have a valid callback number to display on caller id.
This is so telemarketers can't hide behind bogus numbers. U just got lucky
to be called by one of these people and have the call go over equipment that
could forward that number all the way to ur country.

This sounds like a scam I think I heard about where they do that to get
you to call them back, racking up nice charges on your phone bill and
profits for them. Although that would be a toll number, not a toll-free
number...
Just a thought.

Youp ,every line _should_ present a valid callback number but i have a
small voip network and tested such things just for fun. For example,
my cisco IP phone was "666" and when called my cellular it was "666"
presented too.
It all depends on configuration of PBX, whether it passes through the
"invalid" number or it does not.
note that the valid number is 0+Subscriber'sCountryNumber* , in the
other case, the PBX will present your number as "restricted" or
"private"
