Do you mean charging the sender of the trick images or the receiver?

Well that depends on the situation. Regardless the sender would be charged if found, but if they were able to get legitimate CSAM on the receiver's phone the receiver could possibly be charged too, or at least investigated. Just the idea of getting investigated in these kinds of attacks, much less being exposed publicly as being under investigation is a horrible thought.
