Note from author: This phile was written to MAXIMIZE your safety. You can do
the things that I say you probly shouldn't do, but don't say I didn't tell you
so!
This Phile is an attempt to instruct people on the delicate art of
Phreaking. It wil
l probably not tell any old timer's anything, but may be of
use to those who are just learning the art.
What is Phreaking? Phreaking (pronounced Freaking, as Phone Phreaks all
substitute Ph phor an "F") is getting free calls. How do you do this? There are
many ways. The first and (I think) the easiest are Diverters.
Diverters are those boxes the gestapo (Phreakese for phone company)
puts in that after so many rings, re-routs the call to a different number. Just
like call forwarding! Only t
hese are MUCH better phor us phreakers! You will
know you have a diverter if when you call, it rings phor about 3 rings, and
then you hear a "CA-THUD" (yes, it really sounds like that!) and then some
fainter ringing. Then some one will answer and you ask if "Guido Sanchez the
Third" is there, and *most* of the time, they will say you've gotten a wrong
number. You must somehow make a click on the line, ((A privacy or mute button
on most phones does this most beutifully!) as most of these answering services
are trained not to hangup untill you do) and then they hang up. You'll hear all
kinds of different clicking and clunking, and then a dial tone. You now are
into the safest way to phreak! You can now dial normally. All the calls will be
traced and billed to that number! Hey! Pretty Phun eh? Just be sure and don't
use the same number too much otherwise you'll get some gestapo at the door in a
week or two!
Well, it's time for a little talk on how the phone company routes
calles. There is a few different ways, but it all really boils down to crossbar
or ESS.
If you have crossbar, I wish I lived where you do! The way you can tell
if you have ESS or not is call yourself. If it is loud and electronic sounding,
you have ESS. If it is mechanical and low, it is Crossbar.
If you have ESS, don't phret, it's phine to phreak, 'just you gotta B
more careful, B cuz any CIA or whatever guy can punch up on his terminal the
time and number of the call, and for about 1 outta every 100 calls, what it was
about! If your in an ESS area, they listen to calls randomly. ESS can trace
calls back to you even before you dial. And it keeps records of everything you
dial, even the mistakes you make and wrong #'s! Where went our freedom??? If
you have ESS also, don't call 800 #'s too much or 950's. (If you don't know
what an 800 is, STOP READING. A 950-xxxx number is a different phone service,
more on those later) If you do, you'll be placed on an alert list and have
about 1 outta 3 calls intercepted!!!!!(Addendium: I
got from a semi-reliable source that if you got pacific Bell, unless you piss
the shit outta some operator or somethin, they won't help the other companys
track you down. Sorta like getting rid of compition. I guess it's true B cuz
this guy just called about 80 800 numberz. Nothin happen'd, YET)
If you got crossbar, they can't do shit. It costs something like 500
dollars to run a trace, and listening to a call!!! Forget it! Your home free in
this type of system, except you don't get goodies such as
call forwarding or call waiting. (IE, can't make a cheeze box (more on that
later))
What is another way to get phree phone calls? Well, the second easiest
was is by calling US Sprint, MCI, etc. You can access these numbers by calling
either the local number(if in a major-type city), or by calling a 1-800 number
or a 950 number. A 950 number is when you simply dial "950-xxxx" where xxxx is
the number. 950 numbers are like 800 numbes, free, but are not supported by all
areas. These are just different
carriers that you can use to supposedly lower
your phone bill. They run on a magic number type system, which you can get
fairly easily. What is a great machine for dialing the phone and saving the
results? Yep, your old modem and your computer. There are many different
programs around that you can use, and all work pretty well.
To do this, you call a carrier, and try an access code. If it is bad,
the stupid machine recording will say "Invalid Code" or some such BS. Just
hangup and call back. Event
ually you'll get a good code. Write it down. Now,
don't use the same code more than twice a week, and use more than one carrier.
Also use more than one code, otherwise the gestapo might get wize. Now, use
this code when your calling Phriends Long Distance, or even just calling BBS's.
PC Pursuit is a service run by telenet or tymnet that allows you to
access any city that it services. It only does 1200 baud, or 2400 in some
areas, but it's pretty good. Modem only tho. There are several bugz in it, and
some sites let you dial anywhere world-wide. Them BBS's in germany are pretty
wild! Xcept buch O queers stop by all the time. Most everyone over there is an
asshole tho... Still pretty neat. To find a node that allows unlimited dialing,
just try dialing them all. At the tyme of this writing, there were 3 or so, 1
2400 baud and 2 1200. I'm not naming them just in case any PCP gestapo read
this.
PCP has many bugs, and you can really phuck people over by monitering
what they do, stealing passwords, e
tc. A real Phun thin with PCP is to keep
calling itself with it, and it will eventually tie itself up and when you drop
carrier, the lines won't detect and some phucker from PCP gotta go down and
unplug all the phones.
Telenet is kinda like PCP, but different. They got this new software
that will trace and stuff... Used to be the best thing around, but now a
definite RED ZONE. Tymnet is the same. Stay away.
So you say "I be gett'n all dese philes on boxes and shit..." well,
what the phuck be a box? A box is a little box, or circit, or program (why the
hell do they call them boxes) that allows you to do something cool. Like
getting free phone calls. Or having all incoming calls be phree. Or making
untracible calls. Or using pay-phones free, or changing the traffic signals, or
taking over a TV station, etc. the following is a list of the boxes that I know
of, and what they do.
Color What should be called What the hell it does
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Blue Phree Calling Program Uses computer generated tones to
drop to the operator lines and place
free calls
Black-Switch Free Incoming Switch Makes incoming calls free if you
flip the switch. Very safe
Black-Button Free Incoming Button When you pick up the phone, you can
hear w
hat they are saying, but the
ringing doesn't stop. Press a button
and it stops the ringing. Can use
special signals. Makes all calls
coming in free, but requires phone
to be dedicated to black boxing.
Beige Box Lineman's Handset Box A true little box that you plug a
phone into and connect the two
alligator clips to the junction box
and use someone else's line. Can be
used for tapping, static-free free
calls, and many others! Acts just
like they have another phone.
Cheese Box Convert to Payphone Inst. Jus
t a set of instructions on how
you can convert your phone into
a pay phone to place untraceable
calls. Needs a red box.
Red Box Free Call tone box A box that generates tones that are
identical to the tones made when
money is dropped into a pay phone.
Chrome Box
Signal Changer A great box that allows you to
change the signal lights at an
intersection. VERY, VERY, VERY
VERY SAFE!
Snow Box TV Taker Over The most dangerous box (if used on
open air waves) or one of the safest
boxes (if used in a cable system)
that allows you to take over TV
channels with whatever you want!
The most phun yet!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
