Talking How to Mask ur MAC address in BSD

I havent been using UNIX for that long, so this question might sound quite stupid to most of you. I want to know how to mask my MAC address
I found a command on how to do it but I dont think it works:
"ifconfig <interface> link <address>"
Unfortunately being the n00b I am, I dont really even know how to view my MAC address. So i dont really how to mask it, or even if this command worked or not. If anyone could please tell me how to check my MAC address and if there is a way to change it.
Thanks
