I think you could minimize the incidence of the problem by having a PRI with like 100 numbers associated, with the CO doing the routing stripping off the last two forwarded digits. You also have a premium service provider that forwards premium calls to one of those numbers (I think from what you say that you do not see the premium number as the originating ID). You rotate the accepted number daily/weekly, so it's very unlikely that someone can simply guess it. Just my euro .02, l.
