Your friend may have legal problems depending on the country he/whe lives
in.  The German Bundespost (regulatory office for post and telephone) is
very strict.  Only Bundespost approved modems can be connected to their
phone lines.  This is not to say that other modems won't work - just that
they are illegal.
