More TRW Info Courtesy of the Jolly Roger
|
||
|
|
||
|
Trw is a large database in which company's and banks can run credit
|
||
|
checks on their customers. Example: John Jones orders 500$ worth of stereo
|
||
|
equipment from the Joe Blow Electronic distributtng Co. Well it could be that
|
||
|
he gave the company a phony credit card number, or doesn't have enough credit,
|
||
|
etc. Well they call up Trw and then run a check on him, trw then lists his
|
||
|
card numbers (everything from sears to visa) and tells the numbers, credit,
|
||
|
when he lost it last (if he ever did) and then of course tells if he has had
|
||
|
any prior problems paying his bills.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I would also like to add that although Trw contains information on
|
||
|
millions of people, not every part of the country is served, although the major
|
||
|
area are.. So if you hate someone and live in a small state, you probably
|
||
|
wont be able to order him 300 pink toilet seats from K-mart.

Logging on
|
||
|
==========
|
||
|
|
||
|
To log on, you dial-up your local access number (or long-distance, what
|
||
|
ever turns you on) and wait for it to say "trw" at this promt, you type
|
||
|
either an "A" or a "Ctrl-G" and it will say "circuit building in progress"
|
||
|
it will wait for a minute and then clear the screen, now you will type
|
||
|
one of the following.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Tca1
|
||
|
Tca2
|
||
|
Tnj1
|
||
|
Tga1
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is to tell it what geographical area the customer is in, it really
|
||
|
doesnt matter which you use, because trw will automatically switch when
|
||
|
it finds the record..
|
||
|
|
||
|
Next, you will type in the pswd and info on the person you are trying to
|
||
|
get credit info on: you type it in a format like this:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rts Pswd Lname Fname ...,House number First letter of street name Zip <cr>
|
||
|
now you type ctrl s and 2 ctrl q's here is what it looks like in real life:
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ae: Dialing xxx-xxx-xxxx
|
||
|
|
||
|
(screen clear)
|
||
|
Trw ^G
|
||
|
|
||
|
circuit building in progress
|
||
|
|
||
|
(pause . . . screen clear)
|

|
||
|
R 56785
|
||
|
^s ^q ^q
|
||
|
|
||
|
and then it will wait for a few seconds and print out the file on him
|
||
|
(if it can locate one for the guy)
|
||
|
|
||
|
note: you may have to push return when you first connect to get the systems
|
||
|
attention.

Getting Your Passwords
|
||
|
======================
|
||
|
|
||
|
To obtain pswds, you go down to your favorite bank or sears store and
|
||
|
dig through the trash (hence the name trashing) looking for printouts, if
|
||
|
they are a big enough place, and live in a trw area, then they will probably
|
||
|
have some. The printouts will have the 7 digit subscriber code, leaving the
|
||
|
3-4 digit pswd up to you. Much like trashing down at good old ma bell.
