Depends, if terms don’t permit them to repudiate the claim, they would recoup it from the fake pilot.
If they can bail on the claim its up to the owner, but I am sure US courts would tolerate the sort of bobbing and weaving the “comm” pilot could come up with.
At some point the owner has to accept responsibility for his own decisions.
