Actually the first thing I thought of (other than Twelve Monkeys) was 
some kind of smaller operation without the resources that 
governments/spys might have, for example drug runners.


Doing it via phone means you can set up the whole thing by remote - you 
don't need to put up antennas and transmitters and such, so both the 
sending and recieving party could be anywhere in the world. It would be 
less secure in the long run as records could be traced, but if whatever 
you're doing is short-term, this wouldn't matter. Its not too hard to 
set up a phone number with fake or stolen information, and the rest 
could have been set up from a coffee shop/internet cafe anywhere...


Or the whole thing is just a prank.

I've been doing some searching on the central office that number is
allocated to.  The only address I've been able to get out of it is 32
Old Slip in Queens.  Mapquest shows it near the southern tip of
Manhattan Island.  Another has it as comming from a different central
office, this one on W. 10th.  There is a company, RNK, Inc.,(RNK
Telecom) that has the 212-796-0 number, but there is no other info for
them.  Perhaps a test number?

My immediate thought was Twelve Monkeys!

 It wouldn't be difficult at all to hoax something like this. I'm not accusing
anyone, that's just my gut feeling. You'd need an answering machine, some
software to splice together audio recordings, and some knowledge of numbers
stations so you can give it the same feel.

 If that's what it is, I'd say it was clever and well executed.
