Jurgen, on a similar note to what you are asking - are people aware of any
instances of credit card fraud on unofficial iMode sites?

I know of multiple people who have entered their credit cards on public
Internet sites only to find five or six "extra" subscriptions on their next
bill, which they were certainly not aware of subscribing to, nor wanted to
subscribe to.

Just another thought on how your friend could "unwittingly" rack up huge
subscription phone bills for you.

Seems that too much people got my question wrong because I
used the verbs 'kill', 'hang', 'stab', etc. in relation with
'friend' too often....mhm, is danger not what makes life so
precious? ;) ...ok, back to my serious question:

Imagine you hand your friend an I-Mode phone *and* the Pin for
one month and there are NO oversea calls allowed, HOW MUCH
money can this friend burn ONLY by USING I-Mode services?

This is a serious question, I will explain later why (if I
get some serious answers).
