The only thing you can do with this is make people very unhappy with very
high gprs traffic bills.
Because every ping uses some bytes, when you do it enough, a customer will
end up with a huge amount of traffic.
But, there is no way you can get money out of that. All operators that I
know of just send the contentpartner an invoice for the revenues, or the
contentpartner itself has to send an invoice.
If you would really want to get this to work, you should be able to mimic a
phone. But the operators gateway only gives access to registered simcards...
And it won't be possible from outside the operators network...

I don't believe this story at all!
