Is it possible to make your phone appear overseas to other callers?

Hello techno gods, another muppet question from me.

Is it possible to make your phone appear overseas to other callers? I know some networks offer ringtags with themes etc but I wondered if there was a method of appearing elsewehere.

Many thanks
Chris

maybe a phone number spoofing app?

The best way is making its caller ID "private number"

That's the only way I personally no.

What I think your doing may just be impossible.

Apologies, I should have been clearer.

I want people calling me to hear an overseas ringtone.

The phone ringing sound you hear when calling somebody is provided by the wired phone network/switch not the cell phone. If an optional ring was available, it would be something through your carrier, not the phone.

unless the user can find a ringback tone of a euro tone and apply it through the carriers ringback tone option (if they have one).
