- Blue Boxing: This file assmes you have made and/or know how to make a Blue Box,
- that you know how to use a Blue Box, and that you know what a Blue Box can do for you.
-
- Blue Boxing at first:
-
-
- When Blue Boxing first started At&t (called Bell at the time) was totaly unwary
- for this move. Blue Box tones where ordinginally created for the operator and the phone
- repair man. Using them phreaks used to tap lines, call anywhere for free, etc
- .
- Then one dreaded day somebody at Bell caught on and BAM, people where busted
- like mad cause they thought blue box was safe.
- Suddenly, people relized that it was not safe all the time, not safe sometimes,
- not safe at all. NEVER could you sue a Blue Box without being busted. But even after
- all this, Bell (and now At&t) still used Blue Box tone and they are still being
- used today.
-
- Now, how they got busted.
-
- Every time a Blue Box tone is used, the number is came from is put on a list.
- This list contains all places where Blue Box tones came from in your area code. Now,
- just cause your name is on this list dosen't mean that your busted or anything, yo
- ur still fine. However, at the end of the week another list is compared to the list
- of where the tones came from. If your NOT on this list you are in BIG trouble. Expect
- a vist to court.
-
- Now, the trick of not getting busted.
-
- The first thing is obvious. You must get on the second list mentioned above.
- Then your stumped, how do I get on that list?!?!?
-
- Getting on a Blue Box tone list.
-
- Alright, all operators are always on the list. So if you have a neighbor who
- is an operator, just put in a tap. No problem.
- Now your saying "Oh great, all I have to do is move nextdoor to an operator.
- I read this whole G-file just to find that out!" Wrong. That's is the easiest way but
- by no means the only.
- Another way: When a phone repair man comes to your house and either instals
- a new line, tests an old line, fixs a phone. Fixes a tine or works on your main Box
- (you know those big GREEN BOXS sitting in about every 8th house's yard. Then your nu
- mber goes on the list.
- By knowing a repair man you can get on this list or after having the line fixed,
- you can drag out your blue box and have some fun!
- Finnaly. I have never succed in this but I know it DOES work.
- Run a war dial of you area until you get a gold box (also called a diverter)
- tone. If you can find one go install a Gold Box somewhere. Now scan again until you
- get your local At&t switching station. Call back through the diverter and hack unti
- l you get a High level persons access. From a highlevel person access you can call in
- and edit the list of places where tones can come from. Now you can use the Blue Box.
- I personally have hacked a acount in At&t but it wasn't high enough to edit the l
- ist but I could read it. From reading it I fround a bunch of good places to install
- a Gold Box.
-
-
- I be writing a G-phile on Gold boxing and then on on tapping a line.
-
- Look for more stuff soon.

- The above was tested by The Micro Master, The Storyteller and someone else who
- dosen't have a modem but likes to call places free.
-
- The tests where done on At&t's Electronic Switching System (ESS) and no busts
- where even made so it is presumed safe.
