- [1] Huge Phone Bills:
-
- 1.1 If your intended victim has a middle- or high-end answering machine
- or subscribes to a VMS service, you're in luck. These are usually
- endowed with the capability to remotely change the outgoing message
- tape (or memory, whatever) and are protected with a pathetic 2-4 digit
- code. Once you crack one of these, change the message going out so
- it says "This machine accepts ALL collect calls". Then get all your
- friends and relatives in Europe, south America, China, Antarctica, etc
- making collect calls to it. They don't have to say anything, just keep
- the line open.
-
- 1.2 The bud-box. It's not a box at all really and it's the k-neetest way
- for losers like your victim to phreak. What you do is hook up your
- modified phone to the victim's outside terminal box (not too
- difficult unless you're Capt. Kirk
- would do is call 1-976-PORN for a few minutes and then bugger off
- scared that someone might see them. This won't really cost your enemy
- too much and he'll have his box steel-plated next time you come back
- (Jas0n C0ckbyter Anders0n did this after someone went to his box to
- do an ANI with a bud-box to get his new phone number. It had just been
- changed because SOMEONE had posted about a 200 meg AE being at that
- number).
- What a vengeful phreak with brains would do is call the most expensive
- phone number he can possibly think of (there are some south Pacific
- Islands that are obscenely pricey to call; Marisat is a good ripoff
- too...) and instead of sticking around for weeks, just put a 600 ohm
- load (preferably a 10 cent resistor from Shack) across the box terminals,
- and leave it there. The line will stay open until someone starts to
- wonder what's going on, and by that time you'll be long gone and there'll
- be about $1,000,000,000,000 in Long Distance charges already billed.
-
- 1.3 Steal his Calling Card. Post it on every BBS and AE in the entire
- US of A. I don't need to say more about this and it's been done many
- times anyways.
-
- 1.4 Befriend him. Include him in your elite circle of hacker friends
- (none of your REAL contacts, just other losers...). Make him think he's
- just totally k-awesome. Then get him excited about blowing up his
- area code with a Blotto Box (ha ha ha). InSIST that every major
- phreak has Blotto Boxed their exchange at least once and that if he's
- ever going to be /<ool he should do the same. When he does it, call up
- Crime Stoppers... He won't destroy the NPA but there will be damage
- done to Telco and that will give your victim a record...and you'll be
- able to anonymously provide the pigs with a name, address, phone number,
- set of fingerprints, etc etc etc...
- (This prank inspired by "Get People To Kill Themselves")
-
- 1.5 Raid your enemy's mailbox daily. If you see a phone bill, take it.
- About 4 months later your enemy's phone line will be cut off for
- non-payment. Too bad he didn't get to see the "Final Notice".

- Sorry this file's a bit cut-off but I had to translate it from WordStar to
- PCWrite (ASCII) and in the time it took I couldn't be bothered to add anything
- else. So sue me.
