Scanning Free Call Numbers by Road Kill

     Everyone should know what a free call number is.  Many businesses are now
getting them as a way of gaining new customers because it costs the customers no
money.  If you didn't know, now you do.  If you don't beleive me go have a look
in the newspaper.  You can tell a free call number because it has a 008 or a
1800 prefix at the start.

     There are several different free call exchanges which are quite
interesting.  In Australia there is the 1800 and 008 exchanges, theres also a
new one starting up still on the 1800 prefix but with a brand new system, and
lots more K-Rad features to rip off, unfortunately it only commences operation
in at the start of 1996, and only on trial for two businesses.  But apart from
these two exchanges, there is also the international free call 0014 system.
This operates from all over the world, and is the best system for scanning.

     So what is scanning?  Well basically what you do is pick an exchange and
dial all its numbers.  For example, say you were scanning the 0014 exchange.
In actual fact its 0014-800-XXX-XXX.  Then you pick 4 numbers to use.
so you have 0014-800-125-0XX, then with the last two digits you vary by one each
time from 00 to 99.  And you make a record of each one into a text file so you
can remember what you found.  The best way to do this is to program you phone
all the digits except the last two, and then just add them when dialing.

     A little more advice on scanning the 0014 numbers.
Generall 0014-800-12X-XXX is the best numbers to scan because there the most
interesting and tend to have the most businesses using them.  Also you should
record every number you try and type it into a text file so you can remember
what you find.  A simple program can be written for this, which tells you the
number to dial, then gives you options on the most common things found in the
exchanges, and it writes you answers into a file for you.

     But why should i scan freecalls?  Simple there is a lot fo interesting
features for you to use/find.  Some of the major common features that can be
found are VMB's, PBX's, Company systems, and the ones which are hard to get into
requiring a password just to get in.  If you don't know a VMB is a voice mail
box, this is a system where if you have a box people can leave you vioce
messages, the ones on these systems are for company staff but if you get one
which isn't too hard there much better than the optus ones which are oh so easy
to get as well.  A PBX is a private branch exchange, a company gets these and
sets them up so employees and customers can call and divert around to different
divisions on one free call.  A PBX set up poorly will allow you to dial out and
make calls to non-free numbers for free...;)  Teleconferancing services can also
be found, so you can setup a conferance with as many friends as you want for
free.  There are many other features but i'll leave them up to you to find.  But
heres one more which im sure you'll all love.  The free call sex lines, these
are the ones you pay by credit card and everyone should know that getting credit
card numbers costs you nothing.

     So thats it, its so easy, its quite fun, and theres many features to take
advantage of.  Thats about it from me, but before i leave i'll give you a sample
of some of the interesting things to be found from scanning.

0014-800-120-010 - U.S VMB
0014-800-120-100 PBX in Boston
0014-800-120-113 Mastercard Global Services
0014-800-120-156 BBS 7E1 not 8N1
0014-800-120-294 Teleconferance service
0014-800-120-380 VMB
0014-800-126-023 Asks for pin / box number

You don't always find a good number, but its always worth it to keep going to
find another good number to dial and take advantage of.

Well that's it from me have fun, disobey authority, and above all
don't do anything that i would.
