So were they engage in something illegal you would be liable?

I’m sure the police would come to my door, but I could show records of it not really being “my phone number”.

Family plans are pretty common here, so I wouldn’t expect too much friction.

I would absolutely cooperate (obviously through a lawyer) with records if someone else on my family plan did something illegal.

I also have records showing that they pay me for the line.

Also yes, it would be a huge hassle. The probability of that happening is small, and I’m willing to risk it like many other things in life. I only do this for very trusted people.

only if police and judges are stupid.
So depends on their mood, corruption, and whether they want to get you.
If you live in a shithole country that's always the case.
