“Payphones owned by Frost, 53, and Nordstrom, 48, were programmed to autodial toll-free telephone numbers and to navigate automated menus long enough to collect a fee of nearly 50 cents from the holders of those phone numbers. Federal Communication Commission regulations stipulate that payphone owners receive 49.4 cents in dial-around compensation for each toll-free call placed from their payphones.”
