The Beigebox
The beigebox is simply a consumer lineman's handset, which is a
phone that can be attached to the outside of a person's house. To
fabricate a beigebox, follow along.
Making a beigebox:
Obtain an old phone, and cut off the plug on the end. Solder an
alligator clip onto the red wire, and the green wire.
Now, imagine the possibilities: a $2000 dollar phone bill for
that special person, 976 numbers galore, even harassing the
operator at no risk to you! Think of it as walking into an
enemies house, and using their phone to your heart's content.
Connecting the beigebox:
Look on the outside of your victim's house, taking note of any
wires leading from a telephone pole to the exterior of their
house. Follow the wires, and find where they connect. The
telephone wire should be black, and about the width of your small
finger. You do NOT want the 220 volt house current, unless you
like having a permanent orange afro.
When the telephone wire connects to the victim's house, it should
run down their wall, and into a small beige or grey box. Some
boxes have a bolt in the dead center, and some have even gone as
far as to have a lock (smashing them open is no problem). Now,
you must open the box, and observe: you should see three bolts,
each with wires attached. Connect the two alligator clips to the
two outside bolts, and then you should get a dial tone. If you
do not get a dial tone, experiment with the connections. By the
way, don't worry about getting electrocuted; there is not enough
power in the phone lines to harm you.
After placing a few phone calls, if you really want to get even,
pull all the wires out of the box. This will result in about a
$100 dollar service charge for your enemy.
Use your imagination!
