I have been called from a local business number after hours. I did not answer that call but around that same time I had other local id calls from out of state from tellamarketers.
My phone will show a spoofed number as "blocked". I checked this with AT&T. Plus, the caller ID tag is separate from the number which shows up. Most times I don't even see the caller ID tag unless I go looking for it. But to your point, I scanned back through my missed calls and saw this number had called me previously. I checked the caller ID tag on that call and it said "Telemarketer".
Just very strange they have the data to connect together like that.
