This is actually technically possible in the networks, at least here in Europe (generally).

However, obviously allowing such sms forwarding have to be done with care.

Yes I think you are right. But I don't think Twilio allows it unless I somehow register the number and authenticate that I own.

I could be wrong, but I think they have a way for me to register my cell number so I could "spoof" messages sent from it. But I would first have to prove to them that I own the number.
