I have a similar story, but instead of pay-per-view I had downloaded an alternate Web Dialer software when on the internet unsupervised (I was supposed to be doing homework), because my parents wouldn't give me the EarthLink password.
Turns out that alternate web dialer dialed a 900 number and charged my parents hundreds of dollars on the phone bill. I was grounded for a long while.
I downloaded and installed a key logger on my Mac back in the day to get my parent’s wolfenet dialup password when they changed it thinking that would allow them to limit when I was online.
Much more sophisticated than I was. Probably would have taken longer to get caught too.
I wrote my own dial up program in Delphi and made it look exactly like the Window 95 dialer. Worked exactly as planned. Ha ha
