FEAR AND LOATHING IN THE 1-800 NPA
BY PICA MAN FOR POW!
---------------------------------------
MOST OF YOU ON THIS BOARD ARE INTER-
ESTED IN WARES AND THAT'S ABOUT IT.
FAIR ENOUGH. THE PROBLEM COMES WHEN YOU
START HACKING 1-800 DIAL-UPS WITHOUT
REALLY REALIZING WHAT YOU ARE GETTING
INTO.
SO, IN THE INTEREST OF KEEPING YOU
PEOPLE OUT OF TROUBLE, I HAVE COMPILED
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION TO HELP YOU
OUT.
DIALUPS ARE ANY LOCAL OR 800 EXTENDED
OUTLET THAT ALLOWS INSTANT ACCESS TO
ANY SERVICE SUCH AS MCI, SPRINT OR AT&T
AND FROM THERE ALLOWS YOU TO CALL
(ALMOST) ANY LONG DISTANCE NUMBER.
SOUNDS GREAT, DOESN'T IT? BUT THERE
ARE SOME DANGERS, THE 2 BIG ONES ARE
ANI AND THE 1-800 BILL EXCLUSION.
ANI: AUTOMATIC NUMBER IDENTIFICATION,
A SERVICE AVAILABLE ON ESS (ELECTRONIC
SWITCHING SYSTEMS (LIKE IN VANCOUVER)
THAT ALLOWS A PHONE SERVICE (LIKE A
DIALUP) TO RECORD THE PHONE NUMBER THAT
ANY CERTAIN CODE WAS DIALED FROM. SOME
SERVICES DO NOT HAVE THE EQUIPMENT TO
READ ANI PULSES YET, BUT YOU CAN NEVER
TELL UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE. AND FOR
THOSE OF YOU IN THE STATES, ALL 950
NUMBERS ARE HOOKED UP TO ANI.
(Sysops Note (P-80) The above statement
about ALL 950's being hooked to ANI is
not true! Its POSSIBLE for them to be
but most ld companies do not wish to pay
the extra fee's for this service and thus
dont normally use ANI, but they can. It
should also be noted that 950's are
feature group b lines. In contrast all
feature group d lines do have ANI.
Any time you use an equal access routing
i.e. 10xxx the calling number is reported).
1-800 BILL EXCLUSION:WHAT THEY DO IS
RECORD EVERY 1-800 NUMBER YOU CALL,
THEN ERASE THEM OFF YOUR BILL. MEAN,
HUH? AND IF YOU GO OVER A CERTAIN
NUMBER OF CALLS, WHAMO YOU'RE ON THE
HOT LIST.
IF AFTER THIS YOU ARE STILL INTER-
ESTES IN USING THIS METHOD OF GAINING
FREE LONG DISTANCE CALLS (I DO), THEN I
WILL SHOW YOU HOW TO HACK CODES.
FIRST THING TO DO IS FIND A WORKING
DIALUP NUMBER, YOU CAN DO THIS BY
SCANNING THE 1-800 PREFIX YOURSELF, OR
MAYBE A BOARD IN YOUR AREA WILL HAVE
THEM POSTED.
THEN THE PROBLEM IS DETERMINING A
VALID AND WORKING CODE. THIS IS TYPIC-
ALLY FAIRLY EASY. AFTER YOU HAVE
RECIEVED A TONE FROM THE SERVICE, START
TYPING NUMBERS, THERE ARE SOME STANDARD
FORMATS YOU CAN TRY:
[CODE]-1-[NUMBER]
[CODE]-9-[NUMBER]
[CODE]-[NUMBER]
[NUMBER]-[CODE]
AND TO MAKE MATTERS A LITTLE EASIER,
HERE ARE THE LENGTHS OF CODES FOR
VARIOUS SERVICES.
MCI - 5/6 ALLNET - 6/10
SPRINT - 9 AT&T - ?
METRO - 6 ITT - 7/8
SKYLINE - 6/10 RCI - ?
US-TEL - 4/6 LEXITEL - ?
WATSLINE - 8 CCSI - ?
TELENET - 8 COMPANY X - 6
---------------------------------------
A SHORT NOTE TO THOSE OF YOU WHO MAY
HAVE CREDIT CARD NUMBERS OR CALLING
CARD NUMBERS THEY WANT TO PHREAK WITH,
WATCH OUT!
---------------------------------------
HERE ARE SOME NEAT NUMBERS TO PHREAK
TO, HAVE FUN.

---------------------------------------
THE BEST WAY TO HACK CODES IS TO DO
SO FROM A PAY PHONE OR MAYBE SOMEONE
ELSES LINE, SINCE EVERY CALL YOU MAKE
TO 1-800 LINE IS LISTED ON YOUR BILL,
JUST USE YOUR OWN PHONE TO USE THE
HACKED CODES.
I SUPPOSE A LITTLE WARNING SHOULD BE
GIVEN HERE, WHEN USING DIALUPS IT IS
BETTER TO USE DIFFERENT DIALUPS THAN
DIFFERENT CODES ON THE SAME DIALUP,
THERE IS SMALLER CHANCE OF GETTING
CAUGHT.
I HOPE THIS FILE WILL KEEP YOU OUT OF
TROUBLE AND KEEP YOU FROM HUGE PHONE
BILLS.
