- In the course of phreaking, many conflicts may arise. These may be small
- scuffles among individuals, or large scale wars between phreak groups. This
- series of philes was intended to assist those persons to help the wise to win
- and triumph over the poor and foolish. However, I shall claim NO
- RESPONSIBILITY WHATSOEVER for whatever mischief that may arise from the actions
- as described in this series, nor for mistakes appearing hereafter. With this
- in mind, welcome to the mighty world of phreak war!

- ============
- = VOLUME I =
- ============
-
- Gathering information may be the most enjoyable, or the most aggravating
- of a phreak war depending upon the way in which it is approached. It basically
- involves the real world identification of an individual by his alias. The
- order in which this info. should be attained is:
-
- I. Alias
- II. Phone Number
- III. Name
- IV. Address
-
- In this volume, I will discuss all ways known to me (that I choose to
- disclose) used to obtain the preceeding information.
-
-
- Phone Number
- ------------
- Once you have the name of the phreak you are going to destroy, getting his
- phone number should be of little trouble. Many phreaks will disclose others'
- phone numbers at request, but if this person is powerful and threatening and
- others choose to refrain from openly disclosing his phone number, then it is
- time to turn around and call up your friendly neighborhood sysop. Knowing
- sysops can be very helpful, for if the individual is a validated member of the
- sysop's board it is very probable that the phreak's phone number was required
- (and recorded) for validation.
- If you do not know the sysop of the local board, getting his phone number
- should be rather simple. Call up your local CN/A bureau and say, "Hello. This
- is Jim Reynolds from the local business office and I'd like the name of the
- customer who is at xxx-xxx-xxxx" [xxx-xxx-xxxx should be the board number]
- (some CN/A's service more than one area code). The operator will return
- shortly with the name and residing city of the person who owns the line (this
- works for unlisted numbers, as most boards are unlisted anyway). Then, just
- crosscheck the sysop's last name in the phone book. Then, eliminate all those
- listings that are from cities that the SYSOP doesn't live in. Call the
- remaining numbers (about 3-4) and ask for the sysop BY HANDLE. Then, once you
- get the correct number, write it down and tell the sysop who you are (by
- handle) and tell him the handle of the guy who you're trying to destroy. If
- he's nice and helpful (as most sysops are) he'll go check his userlist and find
- the guy's number (amazing as it is, a lot of people these days still use their
- real numbers when calling a board).
-
- Name
- ----
- When you have his number, his name should be relatively easy to get. Just
- CN/A him and take down the city and last name. Then, call him up and ask for
- him by handle. When he comes to the phone, tell him you're some dude (like The
- Pirate or something) and say you'd like to trade some wares. Talk about games
- for awhile and say "By the way, my name's John. What's yours?" Write his
- first name down, and continue to talk for a little while. Then, suddenly say,
- "My mom has to make a call. I'll call you back in 5 minutes. Bye." Whatever
- you do, make sure he doesn't convince you to give him your phone number and for
- him to call you back. If this happens, it is more than likely for you to
- become the target.
-
- Address
- -------
- When you have his name and phone number, address is a breeze. If his
- phone number is listed in the book, this part is no sweat. Just call the
- library and tell them you want to do a crisscross by phone number. Give them
- the dude's # and presto! If the librarian speaks English, he'll have the
- address for you in a flash! (Illegal aliens may take a bit longer). Another
- simple method is just looking him up in the phone book (if his last name is
- sorta uncommon) and you can manually scan through it.

- This is the end of Part I. Coming up in Part II: Striking your enemy from home.
