Hey Flux,
You are certainly not wrong about that!
By releasing this, I definitely could see the potential for abuse of a service like this. And I've incorporated a few scripts to check for specific types of abuse. It is something I'm still actively working on to prevent, but cannot fully predict every factor that might come into play.
I was working on a script to make it so that you could call the number back and block it permanently.
