The whole point of doing this is because if the user gives away his
username/password to his friends or relative and allows them to use his
account, that way we r gona have a lot more traffic in our asterisk server.
Also we charge our users a fix amount of money every month for their account
so if any user gives out his username and password then his account is more
likely to do 2 to 3 times the calls as compared to aan account which is used
by only one user. So ultimately we lose money.
