For beginners and intermediate Phreaks. ***************************************************************************** WARNING!! Use at YOUR own risk. Author NOT liable for ANY Mis-use. This txt file is only guanteed to take up space! ***************************************************************************** 1. Intro. -------------- First. What is fone phreaking? Well, it is the ART of fooling the fone company and generally fucking the fones all to hell.. Mainly just to place long distance calls to uur buddies with out paying. (least not us! :)) A fone phreak is a hard to come by person now days.. Fone phreaking is an extremely dangerous hobby, now that the fone company has such advanced equipment such as E.S.S. (Electronic Switching System) and A.N.I (Anywhere Number Identification.) This means EVERY time you pick up your phone the number that you dialed is recorded! Even if that call was placed by voice or data. And A.N.I Well, lets say you wanna call and prank the operator for the Hair Club For Men, and you call and start bitch the operator lady out,well the instant you had dial the 800 number your number was recorded and forwared to the next exchange! Which in turn means SHE CAN CALL YOU BACK! Which can be very disasterous for some youngsters out there...So Remember then, you: 1. NEVER PHREAK FROM HOME.(unless you are scanning for carriers,then use a random generator. 2. NEVER TAKE ANY-ONES WORD FOR ANYTHING. (which we'll discuss l8r. 3. NEVER I MEAN **NEVER** Talk to the operator if he/she picks up that could be recorded for later EVIDENCE! 2. The tools of the trade. -------------------------- Ok now that were past that,lets get to the goodd stufff like,codez, boxes, and diverters. The codez refer to Calling card numbers and 950 numbers,(which include the 9 digit operator code.). Now the way the codez are obtained, most of the fone areas have dial ups for calling card users to use thier cards.. Like for instance Sprint for example is 1-800-877-8000 then yo get a ,beeeeeeeep,x, xxxxxxxxxxxxxx click,click,ring,ring... The 14 x's is the code the after that you dial the area code plus the number you are calling. Now to obtain those cards is not too much of an easy task, you can just sit and try by hand (considering the population of the U.S. your bound to hit one..) Or you can use a P.C. I recommend a P.C. But NOT from your home, rip-off a laptop or something and go beig boxing..(covered later.) If you try this from your home there is a very big chance you will be black listed from all 800's which in essence is just always getting a fast paced busy signal every time you dial an 800..Which is a bummer, then worst case you might get the attention of the fraud department who will just watch ya closley.. Which is entrapment but who cares? :(. 3. Bad codez. -------------- The worst two words on this earth (other than "I'm Pregnant...") and you must really watch out for this, let's say you are calling your most favorate bbs for phreaking and there is a message posted HEY!! GOOD CODEZ HACKED... 85108598298286 85100245563486 85136626656565 The Ripper! Now say this message was posted two days ago and say 100 people took the time to writed down or capture all the codez.. And 100 people are using them, in a very short time the bill can get extremely high,and people who those codez really belong to get thier bill,$4657.75 Oh my god! HONEY you fucking bitch look at this bill!!! What? I didn't make those calls... And soon a fone call to AT&T and AT&T credits the bill and passes the info along to the fraud department.. ok, now then the fraud department looks at it and flags the numbers and watches when where and where to the card was let's say 918 area code well thier going to Tulsa, Oklahoma then..Zoom, their there and lets say you enjoy the pay phones down the street, nice hidden from plain site, yet you can see all on-comming traffic..(Take note there..) the fraud plice dudes get out a number map used by the phone repair dudes.. And say you placed your calles from 918-747-9982 they look and see what times..Hmm almost always on week-end and in the mid-evening whoa! It's saturday let's go see.. Andd they ffind a good doughnut shop pick up a good supply and go sit in a strategically sound place...Well couple hours go by.. And some young kid walks up to the fone..Hmm let's check him out.. He pick's up his cellular and calls in, This is agent 1234 and we need a check on call placed on a payfone,Sure hold on..Whats the number sir?, 918-747-9982, ok hold please.. ok the call is being place to 44-71-252-2330 (Scotland Yard) on a flagged card, Thank you Joyce..Click.. Well,now we're in a fine mess the fraud police are on to us...Good reason never to use the same payfone when possible. The fraud police now are walking toward you and nabb your ass.. Boom, JH for you! Not to mention same for Blue Boxes and Black Boxes..Onlything safe now are the red-boxes and beig boxing..(not a particular box,explained later.) 4. Boxes ------------- Now the most basic of all boxes is the red box,a red box is not really red,just called that. A red Box makes tose little dit dit dit dit noises, like when you stick a quater in a payfone, here is how you build one. Go to your local radio shack and look for the 32 number memory dialer, it MUST have the memory, and get a 6.5536 crystal (may have to order one..) When you have all your parts gather these tools.. 1.Phillips screw driver (Star head..) 2. Soldering Gun + Solder Now remove the screws there should be 2 at the top and two under the battery case. Next remove the cover slowly,making sure not to break the wires to the speaker. You should see the circut board,look for a cylinder looking object silver color,it should have a frequency reading on it. De-solder it and remove it. Next take and solder the crystal where the old one went. Doesn't matter whitch connecter goes to which, you might have to make some room. now let it cool, put the other cover back on, might take some re-arranging.. And replace the screws, look in your manual on how to program you dialer, you should program 5 of the asteriks(*) per quater make some for 2.25 and .75 all that fancy shit.. And thats you red box. Now it will not have any affwct on the payfone if there is a dial tone you must dial the number first like 1-918-747-9982 ......(long pause) (Computer) two dollars and twenty five cents please, please deposit 2.25 and you hit your 2.25 key and away! But it must not have a dial tone.. We will not cover any of the other boxes yet.. they are generally too risky.. Now for the numbers of fone phreaking..For all of you out there who are hackers here is a few Number's you might be interested in..
