There's nothing wrong about either one, although blindly dealing with it without knowing which would be problematic. Of course this is an artificial distinction and it might be Shift-JIS or EUC or others as well. These are all valid and are only a subset of widely used 8-bit encodings.
The "ANSI code page" on Windows may well use Shift-JIS. "ANSI" is just a(n unfortunate choice of) name, the actual encoding is not fixed and has little to do with ANSI - it depends on the Windows locale.
