can anyone explain what cool lester smooth was doing when him and bubbles were pulling the con on bernard and squeak in s3?

Post Body

i get that they were selling them the pre-tapped burners but didn’t understand when bernard asked if he could still “read numbers”. bernard proceeds to type in some numbers on the cell phone, lester fakes a conversation about “marlene did you send that copy off to paris? i’m at the airport, that’ll work. the shuttle, yes. thank you darling”, looks at a paper in his hand, then recites some sequence of numbers. i know he was trying to feel lester out and make sure he was legit but what was he actually doing? this has always stumped me.
