      Introduction to P.H.I.R.M.

    The
P.H.I.R.M.  was founded  to  serve   the    Information
Sciencti
sts and Telecommunications Hobbyists community. It has,
at vario
us times incurred the ill will of political parties  in
the Hack
ing Phreaking community but is now recovering from  the
oboloquy
 heaped upon it,  and we hope  to  prove  it  to  be  a
worthwhi
le addition to your information library.

    The purpose of thi
s work is not so much to   appease    the
curisoty of non-member
s, but to familiarize  all    with    the
purposes and work of t
he P.H.I.R.M.

    P.H.I.R.M.  literally translates to Phreaking
  &    Hacking
information Resourse  Media,  but  there  is  a
more  Esoteric
translation for those actively involved  in  the
 projects  and
interests of the pride. We, in an attempt to futh
er intelligent
exchange of ideas and opprutunity, have created a
n  enviornment
where technicians with varied backgrounds may  un
ite  with  the
interests of common  goals.  Whether  ones  enthu
siasm  is  for
Technical Writing, Speech Recognition & Synthesis
, Electronics,
Programming,  Telecommunications  or    other
NONDESTRUCTIVE
Industries  or  Applications  we  meet  all    wi
th    imperial
encouragement and respect.

                  P.H
.I.R.M. Oriented Sub-bases

    Many local & extra-state  BBS Sy
stems contain P.H.I.R.M.
sub-bases for the purpose of keeping me
mbers apprised of recent
developments in projects in which they
have vital interests and
are accesible only by valid technicians
, administrators and  or
project directors. This measure was  ta
ken  for  the  following
reasons:

     A.   To assure participa
nts that their  work  would  not
          be comprimised.


 B.   So that  P.H.I.R.M.  members  lists and information

    should not be  obtained  by  those  with malevolent

  intent.

     C.   So that P.H.I.R.M. project  activists may
 share a
          common  database  with  respect  to  their
chosen
          project or specialization.


    FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

    As Dallas becomes more involved in
National  Defense    and
Communications Technologies we will con
centrate more on the new
wave of Operating Systems and Computer
Based Intelligence  that
will be required to support the advance
s that are  being  made.
In an effort to keep everyone, members
 an  non-members  up  to
date on these matters we invite you cal

               -=:> Chilton Corp. Credimatic
 <:=-
                       -=:] By: Ryche [:=-

              5/30/86

This is the complete  version  of  Hackin
g  Chilton.  There  is
another one that is floating around thats
 not as  complete.  If
you see it anywhere please ask the sysop
to  kill  it  and  put
this one in its place. The Chilton Corp.
is a major credit firm
located on Greenville Ave. in Dallas. Her
e is where alot of the
companies that  you  apply  for  credit,
 check  you  and  your
neighbors credit records. Unlike other cr
edit systems  such  as
TRW and CBI. This one contains the record
s for people with good
credit and doesnt wipe out some of the  n
umbers  of  the  cards
themselves. All  information  is  complet
e  and  includes  full
numbers as well as the bank that  issued
 it,  limit,  payments
due, payments late, their SSN, current &
 former  address,  and
also their current and former employer. A
ll you need to know to
access these things is the  full  name,
and  address  of  your
"victim". Now, before I get into the full
 aspects of how to use
the Chilton I would like to state one  th
ing:  The  information
found inside this system puts forth the o
portunity  for  credit
card fraud. I do not, and will not  endor
se  the  use  of  this
system for these or other similar purpose
s. I am  only  writing
this to inform others about how such comp
anies and firms  check
up on your credit. Now, how to  hack  the
  Chilton.  Well,  the
Chilton system is located  in  Dallas  an
d  the  direct  dialup
(300/100) is 214-xxx-xxxx. Be in half dup
lex  and  hit  return
about 10 times until it starts to echo you
r returns. There is a
command to connect with E-mail that  you
must  put  in  before
echoing return. By echoing the return key
your signifying  that
you want the credit system. I wont go into
 E-mail  since  there
is nothing of special interest there in th
e first place. If you
are interested in it, try variations  of
/x**  (x=A,B,C,etc.).
All input is in upper case mind you. Back
to the  credit  part,
once you echo return, you can type: DTS Ct
rl-s  if  you  really
need to see the date and time or you can s
imply start  hacking.
By this, I mean: SIP/4char. Ctrl-s This is
 the Sign In Password
command followed by a 4 character alpha nu
meric  password,  all
caps as I said  before.  You  can  safely
 attempt  this  twice
without anyone knowing  your  there.  Afte
r  the  third  failed
attempt the company printer activates itse
lf by printing "Login
Attempt Failed". This is not a wise thing
to have  printed  out
while your trying to hack into it since th
ere is always someone
there. If you try twice and fail, hit Ctrl
-d, call  back  echo,
and try again. You can keep doing this  as
  long  as  you  wish
since there is no other monitoring device
than that  printer  I
mentioned before. And since this only acti
vates when  you  fail
to login correct you can safely  say  ther
e  is  little  if  no
danger of your discovery.  I  would  sugge
st  going  through  a
diverter though since  Chilton  does  have
  access  to  tracing
equipment. About the passwords, as far as
I know, there  are  3
different classes of them with varying pri
veledges, these  are:
1-User/Employee 2-Permanent/Secretary 3-In
put Output The  first
one is just to look and pull credit report
s. These passwords go
dead every Sunday night at 11:00pm or so.
The new ones are good
from Monday to Sunday night. Even though y
our pass is good  for
one week, there are limited times you can
use this. The  credit
system is only accessible at these times:
 Mon-Fri:  8:00am  to
11:00pm, Sat: 8:00am to 9:00pm, and Sun:8:
00am  to  6:00pm  The
second class is the same as the first exce
pt  that  these  only
change  whenever  someone  leaves  the  co
mpany.  These    were
originally supposed to be set up for the s
ecretaries so that if
they ever need quick access they could w/o
 having to go down to
the Credit Dept. every week for a new pass
word.  The  third  is
one I have never gotten..yet. It has the a
billity  to  alter  a
persons credit reports for one month. At t
he first of the month
the system updates all reports and changes
 your alterations  to
the credit reports.  Doing  this  though
would  warrant  going
through a diverter since your fucking with
 someones  life  now.
Once you have hacked a pass and it accepts
 the  entry  it  will
display the warning: ****WARNING! UNATHORI
ZED  ACCESS  OF  THIS
SYSTEM IS A FEDERAL CRIME!**** or  some  o
ther  such  bullshit.
Ignore it and go on. After this you should
  be  left  to  input
something. This is where you  enter  eithe
r  In  Houston  Mode,
System Mode or Reporting Mode. In House Mo
de will give you  the
reports  for  the  people  living  in  Dal
las/Fort  Worth   and
surrounding counties.  System  Mode  is  g
ood  for  surrounding
states  that  include:  Massachussettes,
Illinois,  Louisiana,
Missouri, Arkansas, New Mexico, Colorado,
Arizona, some of  New
Jersey, and a few others I cant remember.
Guess you'll have  to
experiment. Reporting is a mode used for g
etting transcripts of
a persons reports and would require you to
  input  a  companies
authorization number. So for this phile le
ts stick to In  House
and System. Get your victims stats ready a
nd enter a  mode:  In
House: I/NH Ctrl-s System: I/S Ctrl-s Afte
r that  its  time  to
pull records.  Type  in:  I/N-Last  Name/F
-First  Name/L-Street
Name/Z-Zip Code/** Ctrl-s If you dont know
 his street name, use
'A' and it will go into a global search ro
utine until it  finds
name that match or are at least 80%  simil
ar  to  the  one  you
used. Although the Zip Code is not needed
and can be left  out,
it does narrow the search  field  down  co
nsiderably.  Once  it
finds the name,  it  will  show  you  his
 Name,  SSN,  Current
Address, Employer, and former ones  if  th
ere  are  any.  Right
after his name you will see a ID number. S
orta like: #100-xxxxx
Write this down as it is your key to getti
ng his reports. After
it finishes listing what it has on him its
 time to see the full
story. Type N/100-xxxxx/M/D Ctrl-s What it
 will display now  is:
his whole credit history. When you first
pulled his  ID  number
you might have seen he had two names but
with a  variance  like
middle name or a mispelled address. Pull
both of them  as  they
are just an error in  whoever  put  the
reports  in.  I  would
suggest capturing this so that you can re
ference back to it w/o
having to access the system every time. T
here are other ways to
get into Chilton through Tymenet but I  h
ave  no  idea  of  the
procedures for this and it is a waste of
time. If you happen to
get the name and address of an employee o
f the  company  forget
the idea of pulling his stats, Chilton  d
oesnt  allow  employee
records to be in there. One very good ide
a put  forth  not  too
long ago was the possibility of going thr
ough  the  phone  book
and picking names at random. You  could
find  out  where  they
worked and if by chance they worked for
something  like  a  TI
Computer Operator or something of value t
o the  hacmPworld  you
could try and bullshit a pass or access t
o something even  more
exciting. Credit Reports and the other in
formation I  presented
here could be used for many purposes othe
r  than  what  I  have
covered here. I do not care what you do
with  the  information
but be advised I will not  take  any  res
ponsibillity  for  the
readers actions.

         The Zen of Passing The Dreaded Po
lygraph  Test
                        By Blade Runner

    There
 arises a time in the life of most Phreaks Hackers and
believe i
t or not,  non-resistance type people when they find
themselves
apprehensive about, or in the electronic clutches of
the Lie Det
ector or Polygraph Machine.

    Supposedly  this  device  can
help  certified    polygraph
operators determine whether or not
a individual being monitored
is telling the truth or is being no
t so truthful, nevertheless,
I can tell you that there are times
 when the machine will work
and there are times when it will not
, and maybe few things that
will help you along in the process o
f passing the dreaded Lie
Detector Test.

    The Polygraph can
only tell the  operator    things   about
changes that are takin
g place in your body as he/she  has  come
to understand it. The
Polygraph machine measures:

o   Blood Pressure
o   Respiratory
Motion
o   Pulse Rate
o   Galvanic Skin Resistance

    It is th
ese measurements that usually  give  the  deception
away to the
operator.

    When you enter into the session area you will be
 asked  to
sit down in a rather uncomfortable chair  and  will
then  have
some instrumentation attached to your body.

A.  Two
small cups that slip over the fingers to measure  pulse

B.  A s
mall chain  type  device  across  the  palm  to  measure
    ski
n resistance.

C.  A Blood Pressure Band.

D.  A Device that enc
ircles the  chest  to  measure  resiratory
    movement.

    Af
ter the operator is sure that you are as uncomfortable or
as com
fortable as you will be,he will begin the test by  asking
you a
few questions that should give him  an  obviously  normal
patter
n to watch for on his paper tape recorder, I.E. "IS  YOUR
NAME,
Pud Head?", "Have you ever drank a Coke?", "Do  you  live
at xxx
xx, nnnnnn Ave?" The next thing for him to do is  to  pop
off on
e of the questions  that  should  be  pertinent  to  your
passin
g or failing the test, this pattern will continue for  20
to 30
questions.

    What happens is that  the  Operator  scribes  th
e  question
number at the top of the section of paper  tape  tha
t  contains
your psychophysical reactions  to  the  questions  t
hat  he/she
asks. Needless to say that they also write down your
 answer  to
the question. When the your recorded  psychophysical
  responses
vary from normal, the operator becomes suspicious.

   The PSI responses are  a  direct  product  of  your  brains
a
ctivity    and  can  be  controlled  in  varying  degrees   as
d
emonstrated by   Yogins  and  Adepts  and  practitioners    of
t
he Eastern Arts.  What we must do is borrow from the East.


Under  normal  condition  our  brains  direct  the   body's
acti
vities  without our conscious aid.  What we must do  before
and
while we are in the polygraph chair is develop a  state  of
rela
xation so intense that we  find  ourselves    able  to  not
resp
onding emotionally when we need to decieve.

    Normally we bec
ome apprehensive when decieving an authority
figure,    our  blo
od  pressure  rises  somewhat,  pulse   rate
increases,    our
breathing  shallows  and  quickens.     This
information would g
ive us away to a polygraph  operator.    The
way to arrest these
 PSI reactions is to relax.  This is not  as
easy as it may soun
d so herein I will detail  a  drugless,    &
safe but effective
way to accomplish this.

Lowereing the heart rate, blood pressur
e  and body  temperature
is something that we have been told is
not under our  conscious
control.  To this we at P.H.I.R.M. say
HORSEFEATHERS!  We do it
all the time, and here is how.

    Fin
d a warm and comfortable room  where  you  will  not  be
disturb
ed for at least 15 minutes and be  sure  that  you  have
this ti
me to dedicate to this exersise  only.  Lie  down  on  a
comfort
able surface on your back with your arms at your  sides.
Get as
comfortable as you may and give yourself time to  become
sensiti
ve to any tensions in your body.

Breathing through  the  nostri
ls,    inhale  steadily,    first
filling the lower part of the
lungs,  which is accomplished  by
bringing into play the diaphra
m.   Then fill the middle part of
the lungs, pushing out the low
er  ribs  breastbone  and  chest.
Then fill the higher portion o
f the lungs,      protruding  the
upper chest,  thus lifting the
 chest and the upper six or seven
pairs of ribs.  In the final m
ovement,  the lower part  of  the
abdomen will be slightly drawn
  in,    which  gives  the  lungs
support and also helps fill th
e highest part of the  lungs.
Timing in this exersise is essenti
al.  During  the  inspiration
you shoul inhale to a quiet and ge
ntle 8 count.....
Retain the breath for a 4 count....
Exhale slo
wly,  holding the chest in  position,    and  drawing
the abdome
n in a little and lifting it upward slowly as the air
leaves the
 lungs during another 8 count.
Let the lungs remain purged  for
 a  4  count  then  relax  the
abdomen.  In relaxing the abdomen
 you next breath has begun.

    Varying the cycle and rate of T
HE BREATH  can  have  varied
effects on the body.   This time  w
e  want  to  slow  all  body
function,  therefore I recommend th
at you pursue this  exersise
gently,  slowly  and with patience.
   If the cycles that I have
suggested are uncomfortable for you
 then use 6/3 being to apply
every that I have outlined here.


   If  all  goes  well  you  will  notice  your  heart    rate
d
ecreasing.  You may also notice he room  geting  chilly  which
m
eans that your body is not producing as much heat,  or  -  and
t
his has happened to me- you may wake up an hour later.   After
p
racticing this exercise everyday for a few days you will  find
t
hat it takes less time to slip into  this  relaxed  state  and
t
hat you can even do it  sitting  in  a  chair  or  even  under
p
ressure. All you have to do is remember to use it  to  control
y
our reactions to phenomenon.

    I have passed a polygraph usin
g this method so  I  know  it
works for me , however,   I  would
  appreciate  any  feed  back
regarding your reactions to this
method  of  controlling  body
functions.

                      The Motorola KDT-800

      By Sir Gamelord
                            Sysop of

                The Worlds Grave Elite

   The  Mortorola  KDT-8
00  is  a  new  terminal  system   from
Mortorola. It goes beyon
d the normal terminal system in that it
can be accses without ph
one lines. It uses  radio  to  transmit
data. The terminal itsel
f has a radio transcever  built  in  to
send and recive data fro
m the host computer. The terminal  also
has a 300bps modem built
 in for transmission out  of  range  of
the host's radio transmi
sons.

                        Technical Specs

       ---------------

   The transcever built into the KDT- 80
0 runs at  4800bps.  It
transmits at 806-821 MHz, and recives at
 851-866MHz. It is a  4
watt transmitter, so it can transmit abo
ut 5 miles.

   The built  in  300bps  modem  is  just  a  stand
ard  Bell103
compatible full duplex modem. It has no auto-answer
 or dial, so
you have to manually pick up the phone and dial the
 number.

   Also, the KDT-800 has a serial and parralell interf
ace.  The
serial runs at 300-9600bps, and the parralell is just
a RS-232.

                          The Network

           -----------

   To make these terminals work, there h
as to be a host network
set up. The network consists of base sta
tion, a network control
proccesor, and the host computer. The  b
ase  stations  are  the
actual  trancevers  for  the  host,  and
  the  network  control
proccesor is a multiplexer type device.


                   Uses & Methods of Hacking

 -------------------------

   Right now there are not too many
of these installed  in  the
country, but soon many major campani
es will have  them.  Mostly
the companies that will use this net
work would be a comapny who
needs the portability  gien  by  the
se  terminals.  This  would
include credit corperations, the pho
ne company,  or  any  other
company who works alot in the field.


   The best way I have found to get into these companies is  t
o
sca 806 through 866 on the FM band, if  they  are  there,  you

will find them. From there, you can hook into them (I won't  go

into detail of that now). The advantage of this  is  that  they

are going to have no security what so ever on the  radio  nodes

because they don't think people will try to break into them.
