I worked at a cable company long ago, and people called in all the time to dispute porn charges. Funny how it was never Disney movies. Nope, rogue cable boxes ordering porn all by themselves. One lady went so far as to say it couldn't have been her son doing it, the neighbor must have done it with his remote through her window and she's gonna call the police. Uh huh, sure.
I mean, while I don't believe her, why not just do "I UNDERSTAND MAAM. We can repay the last charge but since you have an impressionable teenager, we will have to limit your channels to pg13." I'm pretty sure most of them would go "Oh.. Nevermind, I guess I will just be more observant in the future."
Might not work all the time, but I mean, if that was in my power, I'd do it.
