- /\/--> DISCLAIMER <--\/\
- ------------------------
- Ohooh... I'm scared as shit so I accept no responsibility for any actions
- taken by readers... blahblah NOOOOOOO...
- This text is written with the intention that readers of this text hack
- Audex Voice Power vmb's, and I sure as hell hope that as from now on every
- fucking Audex Voice Power in the galaxy gets abused by hackers.
-
-
-
-
- /\/--> INTRODUCTION <--\/\
- --------------------------
- The Audex Voice Power is the predecessor of the Audex we all know just under
- the name Audex today. There aren't that much of this older system around,
- but the few I found were fucking easy to hack. And again: vmb's are fun to
- have, you can trade them for xxx (fill this in), they lower your phone
- bill,... (you've heard this shit before).
- Anyway, lets get down to business...
-
-
-
-
- /\/--> IDENTIFYING THE AUDEX VOICE POWER VMB <--\/\
- ----------------------------------------------------
- Well, you can't recognize them from the first greeting, but the greeting
- will probably contain the usual 'press the ext. of the person you want to
- reach' and the (special for Audex Voice Power) 'if you want to transfer
- using names instead, press the pound (#) key'.
- To REALLY be sure it's an Audex Voice Power: press *7, if it responds with:
- 'Welcome to Audex Voice Power, please enter extension and # sign' you've
- got yourself an easy-to-hack Audex Voice Power vmb.
-
-
-
-
- /\/--> LOGGING IN <--\/\
- ------------------------
- Press *7, you are asked to enter your box number, these are can be 3 or 4
- digits, but I haven't found a mixture of the two on one system so far.
- After you've entered the box number, press #, enter your password and press
- # again. If you entered and incorrect box number or password, it will say
- 'Login incorrect, please try again,...'. On the systems I found you could
- try 4 times to login before you get disconnected. When you get disconnected
- it will say: 'Contact administrator for help, please disconnect... goodbye'.
-
-
-
-
- /\/--> FINDING A VALID BOX AND PASSWORD <--\/\
- ----------------------------------------------
- The boxes are grouped, and they will usually be in 2XX or 2XXX. The default
- password is the same as the box number, just like on allmost all other VMB
- systems.
-
- There are two easy ways to find boxes (and one difficult, and another one
- if you really want a box but had extremely bad luck):
-
- 1. On the two systems I'm using right now, the attendant-extension (0)
- has 0 as password, and on one of those two, the options at the login-menu
- have also got the same password as their extension number (1 for xxx, 2
- for yyy,...). So first thing to do is trying 0 -> 9, if you can't get in
- with these, read 2.
-
- 2. So you couldn't get in by trying extensions 0 -> 9.
- Most systems have a directory where you can transfer to people's
- extensions by entering the first letters of their last name.
- To find the directory, just listen to the first greeting you hear when
- you call the VMB. (you know, 'welcome to xxx... if you need assistance
- press 0, otherwise press the extension of...'). Usually you have to
- press # at the login menu. Now, when you enter the directory option,
- the system will respond with: 'Please enter the last name of the person
- you want to reach'. Don't enter a complete name, just press 5 or somtehing
- and the # sign. By the way: lots of VMB systems have some sort of
- directory, and allmost every VMB system I found had users with last names
- 'Smith' or 'Jones' (some popular names in the US, and characters from a
- stupid TV series). Well, lets continue with Audex Voice Power. After you've
- pressed #, the system will say 'to select blahblah press x' and will
- start saying names. Now a lot of users also say their box number, so
- a lot of these names will be like 'John Doe, extension xxxx'. Just
- write these down. If you found how many digits the box numbers are,
- and where they are grouped, hang up and call again.
- Now start trying the box numbers you just found, you probably will get
- in using the box number as password the 2nd or 3rd time you call, since
- a lot of people don't use their VMB's, or don't know shit about it, so
- haven't changed their password.
-
- 3. Couldn't get in with one of the above methods ? Never happened to me,
- but I guess it's possible. Here's what I would do in such a situation.
- Don't use the login (*7) options to scan for boxes because then you don't
- even know if it's a valid box. Just transfer to them from the main menu,
- so you know how much digits the boxes are, and where they're located
- (since they 'live' in groups). There's a 90% chance the boxes are located
- in 2xx(x). If you entered an invalid box number, it will first try to
- transfer you, and then it will say something like 'your transfer couldn't
- be completed'. Since you don't have to press # after entering an extension
- to transfer to, it's possible that f.e. after pressing only one digit you
- will get transfered (read point 1 of this paragraph). When you've located
- an area that contains lots of valid extensions, try to hack a box in that
- area with the login (*7) option.
-
- 4. Still didn't find a box ??? Well, the best thing you could do in this
- case is bullshit to the operator. If you couldn't find the area that
- contains the boxes, and there's no directory, ask her for the extension
- of f.e. Smith and say you don't know anything else about this Smith.
- If bullshitting the operator didn't work either, just try to transfer to
- an extension, and ask the person that picks up the phone for their
- password. You could say that you're from maintenance, and are installing
- a new option in the boxes so that people are able to use outside lines
- from within their boxes or something.
-
- 5. You still couldn't get a box ? Well, give up on this system and scan for
- another VMB system. I NEVER found a system I couldn't get a box after
- about ten minutes using the method in points 1 and 2 so you are trying to
- hack a system that has allready been badly abused by hackers or otherwise
- you are EXTREMELY dumb.
-
-
-
-
- /\/--> OK, YOU'RE IN A BOX, WHAT NOW ??? <--\/\
- ------------------------------------------------
- Well, use press 2 to listen to the messages, but only listen to the dates they
- were created. So press # every time to skip to the next message.
- If it contains new messages from 3 months ago, then it means that the legit
- user didn't use his box in 3 months. You can safely listen to the messages
- and use this box without the risk of loosing it in 2 days.
- If it contains no messages it could be possible that the user checks the VMB
- regulary, or that it has never been used in which case you got yourself a
- good box again. There's no quick way to find out if it's unused or often used
- in this case, just use this box to scan for other ones (look below), or check
- regulary if there are new messages and if they get deleted afterwards.
-
-
-
-
- /\/--> SCANNING FOR OTHER BOXES <--\/\
- ---------------------------------------
- There are different ways of scanning for other boxes, but the quickest is
- the following:
- First choose option 5 from the main menu, then press 1 to create a
- distribution list. You will be asked for an ID for the list, just press 1
- or something followed by #. Now start entering box numbers, followed by #.
- If the box is valid, the system will respond with the name of the owner, or
- when you're lucky, the system will sa: 'Extension xxx', in which case you
- should write the number down because you've got a 99% chance this is an
- unused box. If the box is not valid, the system will say 'Extension xxx not
- valid'. When you've collected some numbers, press *# and then *3 to delete
- the list. Now hang up, call again and try what boxes have the same passwords
- as their box numbers.
-
-
-
-
- /\/--> OPTIONS AND COMMANDS <--\/\

- 0 : Listen : Listen to name.
- 1 : Record : Record name.
-
-
- 5. CREATING DISTRIBUTION LISTS AND CHANGING YOUR PASSWORD :
-
- Distribution lists are used when you regulary need to send messages to
- several people, and don't want to waste time with typing all their
- boxes.
-
- 1 : Create : Creates a new distribution list. First you will be
- asked for an ID for the list. Now enter f.e. 1 followed
- by #. You can now enter a box number followed by #,
- repeat this untill you inputed all the box numbers for
- the distribution list. If you entered a wrong number,
- just press *3 to delete the last entry. When finished
- press *#.
-
- 2 : Scan : With this option all distribution lists ( If you got
- any ) will be said, and after saying the ID of the
- list, you've got the following options:
- *3: Delete : Delete this distribution list.
- # : Skip : Go to the next distribution list.
-
- 3 : Review : This option will allow you to change other users' or
- your own distribution lists. First enter the box number
- followed by #, or for your own box, just press #.
- Now enter the ID of the distribution list followed
- by #. The system will say how much entries there are in
- the list, and name them one by one, giving you the
- following options after naming each entry:
- # : Skip : Go to the next box.
- *3: Delete : Delete this box.
- 1 : Add : Add a box.
- *#: Quit : Stop review of the entries in the list.
-
- 4 : Change PW : Enter your new password followed by #. After
- entering it, you have to enter it again followed
- by # to check if you didn't enter it wrong the
- first time. The password can be 1 till 9 digits.
- If you just press # when you're asked to enter it,
- no passwords will be assigned to your box.
-
-
- 6. CHANGE OUTCALLING INFORMATION :
-
- The outcalling option is quite fun. Not everyone is allowed to do it,
- but if you find boxes allowing outcalling, you can use them to call
- friends, boards or even alliance... I wouldn't suggest putting your
- own number there, but it would be quite fun that when someone calls
- you up using the VMB (on a tollfree number ???), and you don't answer,
- he can leave a message and stuff...
-
- Options:
-
- 1 : Change : Enter the number your calls should be transfered to,
- followed by #. To exit press *#.
-
- 3 : Info : Will give you instructions on how to enter the number
- with option 1. If you want to insert a pause in the
- dial string, use * to pause for 4 seconds. If your
- number needs to be ended with a #, start your dialing
- string with ##. Normally you can't end with a #
- because if you do that, the system thinks that it's
- the end of the dialing string. This is usefull for
- pagers and other stuff (use your imagination).
-
- 6 : Disable : Turn outcalling off.
-
- 9 : Period : Specify the outcalling period.
- 1 : Outcalling allowed during the system administration hours.
- F.e.: Only between 8 AM and 6 PM.
- 2 : Outcalling allowed 24 hours a day.
