In the case of calls to mobiles, I get them now and then on my orange mobile, always someone saying they are calling on behalf of orange.

I asked orange about it and their rep explained to me that these companies know which dialling codes are assigned to which networks and randomly dial based on those.

This made sense to me, and a mate of mine who was originally with orange, and has since ported his number to T-Mobile then Three still gets calls claiming to be on behalf of orange.
