That was also an old exploit on the GTE Airfone systems on aircraft of the same vintage. It didn't do credit verification in air, and accepted any expired calling or credit card and gave you phree phone calls at 35,000 feet. Only when the plane landed and the data downloaded did GTE find out they got stiffed. ;)
