The reason you get a disconnected number when you try to return the call is that there is no such number. It's called "Caller ID Spoofing". It's easy to do, in fact there are businesses that provide the service for you (e.g. Spoofcard, SpoofTel,), and apps to download for your smartphone (e.g. SpoofApp). If you think the call you answer is possibly spoofed the way to find out is to hang up and quickly call back to see if they answer. If you get the disconnected number message then you know it's a scam or a prank or whatever.
There are also legitimate reasons for using spoofed caller ID as well but sadly it is abused as well.
Hope this helps!

There is an app you can get for droid and iphones that will let a number popup on your screen that is not the number they are calling from. It will also call that number back if you call it. I'm not sure of the app name but I know a few people that have it.

They keep calling my cell phone, which it is prepaid, so I do not answer unless it is someone I know. But I called back to the number, and it is a number that is not in service. So my question is "How does someone make a call from a number that is not in service?" Can someone answer that for me?
I hope someone catches this person!!

They said they work for the U.S. Government and want to know about medical surgeries. When you call the number they use, it is disconnected.

Young male voice called and asked for my daughter...could tell he did not know her so I said she was not here and did not know me. He insisted he speak with her because is a friend. When I refused, he threatened to come to my house and stated repeatedly that he would do "sex things" with her and nothing I could do. Reported this to Comcast for follow up and they provided a block number code. Individual had a Middle-eastern accent (may have been faked, but I do not think so) I add this not as an indictment of any nationality, only as a descriptor of how the caller sounded. There was a significant amount of background noise like he was in a bus or train station.
