Do they not provide Caller*ID either?
No they don't provide any caller ID, if they did they would be on my junk_fax_list long time ago.
I think it is illegal to send faxes with-out any identifier like caller ID. Though I don't know who to complain to about it.
It's illegal to send junk faxes though, PERIOD. If you didn't request the fax in the first place they can, and will face steep fines/penalties at the hands of the FCC, if you report them. So report them, include any information you can, and cooperate with the FCC if they want to continue gathering more evidence.
Same thing with telemarketers. The FCC is actually pretty good about finding and hurting these sleezebags, contrary to popular government images, they do get stuff done. SPAM is another matter, but junk faxes and telemarketers have well established procedures for being dealt with.

Not that I particularly want to advocate litigiousness, but filing a complaint with FCC will get their attention very quickly, believe me.
