=======================================





1. When running hacking programs seeking   phreaking codes, make it a practice

   to start out with a number that is

   approximately half way between the

   highest and lowest possible numbers.

   This will insure the greatest number

   of 'hits' as well as avoid most of 

   the obvious 'trap' numbers. Trap

   numbers are generally low numbers 

   where a hack program may begin.

   Never start at the lowest and work

   up. Far better to start higher....



2. Slow your hacking down. The object 

   is to obtain working codes and not

   to discover every possible code.

   Putting a delay loop in the hacker

   is an extremely good idea since if

   anyone is getting wary of your calls

   they will be looking for you. If the

   calls do not come in rapid order, it

   is much more difficult to detect any

   unusual activity.



3. Never reveal a code. Ever. To anyone.   You risked your backside for them.

   Don't be a chump and give them away!



4. NEVER USE A CODE THAT IS ON ANY BOARD   EVER!!! This is the surest way I can

   think of to get caught. If I were the   security director, I would post 'trap   numbers' on every loser board I could   find. It is a sucker play for sure.



5. Rotate your stock. In one night, you

   should capture four or five good 

   codes at a minimum. STOP HACKING!

   Use these new codes for two weeks and   then hack more codes. Use the codes

   in rotation. This really makes it 

   hard to detect unauthorized use. Also   it may in fact make the unauthorized

   use go by unnoticed. For example, 

   few people use a telephone log book

   and they simply don't notice a couple   of calls that they didn't make. Any

   business of any size falls prey to 

   this.



6. Keep written records to a minimum. It   is impossible to prove you have the     codes if you keep them in your head.

   

7. KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. Really smart

   people let others think they aren't

   necessarily too bright. Lulls them

   to sleep mentally. Don't tell every-

   thing you know. If you do, then you

   have lost you advantage. Blend into 

   the woodwork!



8. Your only friend is your computer.

   Trust no one else. If you tell your

   friends about your codes, you have

   put them and yourself in danger of

   being caught, and under pressure

   they may reveal where the codes 

   came from and that is why you don't

   talk EVER period.



9. Move around. By that, I mean don't

   always use the same service. Metro

   today, Sprint tommorow. 







By following these simple guidelines,

you sould never have a problem. The onlytwo ways to get caught are by 1) runningyour mouth and 2) being nabbed by newer

improved hardware.
