| What To Look For In A Code Hacking Program |

Phreaking's getting tricky these days, ain't it?
|
|||
|
|
Ok, there are two groups of things a code hacker should have, the
|
|||
|
|
necessities and the things that are good to have... Here are the necessities:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Mutliple ports. If you constantly try to hack from the same port (the
|
|||
|
|
800/950 or whatever number that the company you're hacking from is on) you
|
|||
|
|
are begging to be caught. The program should have an option to handle at
|
|||
|
|
least 5 different ports. It should also be able to handle a different format
|
|||
|
|
for each one if necessary. (One could require nine digits, another only 4,
|
|||
|
|
another requiring a 9 before the place you're trying to call to, etc)
|
|||
|
|
Multiple targets. The program should be able to handle as many
|
|||
|
|
target numbers as it can ports. If everytime you try a code you go to the
|
|||
|
|
same number you are, again, begging to be caught.
|
|||
|
|
The ability to hack codes RANDOMLY. And when I say random, I mean going
|
|||
|
|
as far as to have a different seed each time it generates a random code...
|
|||
|
|
If you hack sequentially I hope you get caught.
|
|||
|
|
Not only should the codes it tries be random, but almost everything about
|
|||
|
|
the program should be random. It should pick a random port, with a random
|
|||
|
|
target, and with a random code. Believe it or not, some companies are starting
|
|||
|
|
to show some intelligence, and they're beginning to notice patterns. . .
|
|||
|
|
You can't predict chaos, remember that.
|
|||
|
|
The ability to stop after a certain number of tries, or a certain number
|
|||
|
|
of successful codes, or at a certain time. If you let the hacker run for a
|
|||
|
|
long time, you better have a LOT of ports and targets set up... Hack for
|
|||
|
|
short periods of time, or for a relatively small number of tries. If you
|
|||
|
|
get impatient and desperate for codes, you will make mistakes.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
And now, the nice things to have.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<20> The ability to have a random delay between the tones it dials. Humans
|
|||
|
|
can't dial 11 digit numbers in .7 of a second, and the companies know that.
|
|||
|
|
Humans also cannot dial with a consistent gap between each tone. If the
|
|||
|
|
program puts a random time between each tone, the system will have a better
|
|||
|
|
chance of thinking you're a human.
|
|||
|
|
The program SHOULD be able to encrypt all of the codes it hacks when it
|
|||
|
|
saves them/prints them/etc. That way, IF you get busted, you won't have so
|
|||
|
|
much evidence against you. When you get nailed, they go through everything,
|
|||
|
|
even if they are idiot schmucks. If your list of codes contains all 'wrong'
|
|||
|
|
codes, they'll have less of a case against you.
|
|||
|
|
It is also nice if the code hacker waits a random length of time between
|
|||
|
|
attempts, no matter how many ports it is trying. If you're hacking random
|
|||
|
|
ports, with random targets, with a random delay between digits dialed, with a
|
|||
|
|
random amount of time between all of your attempts, and with a randomly
|
|||
|
|
generated code, you're going to be hard as hell to catch.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
And now some warnings. . .
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I don't know if it is a COMMON practice, but some companies have set up
|
|||
|
|
bad accounts (codes, whatever) for the specific purpose of catching whoever
|
|||
|
|
tries to use it. If it doesn't belong to a real person, only a hacker would
|
|||
|
|
get it.
|
|||
|
|
Don't hack fast... If at all possible, dial fairly slowly. I've heard
|
|||
|
|
of places that watch for extremely fast dialers.
|
|||
|
|
Don't phreak to the same place with the same code constantly. I feel
|
|||
|
|
that one is self explanatory.
|
|||
|
|
If you're very cautious, you can always use someone else's line when you
|
|||
|
|
are searching for codes. But be SURE you don't leave anything that can point
|
|||
|
|
to you.
|
|||
|
|
If you think there is a chance that you've been snagged, or at least
|
|||
|
|
caught the attention of the Gestapo, stop phreaking. The less stuff they
|
|||
|
|
have against you, the less of a case they'll have against you. Also, if you
|
|||
|
|
keep phreaking, they'll sooner or later shove a printout in your face that
|
|||
|
|
contains every number dialed from your phone. Don't bring everybody else down
|
|||
|
|
just because you got careless.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Speaking of bringing everyone else down... I don't know if the truth has
|
|||
|
|
been out yet, so I'll bring it out. There was a loser by the name of Jeremy
|
|||
|
|
Hall. His common handles were "Quicksilver" and "Shells". He thought he was
|
|||
|
|
hot shit. He set up many Alliance conferences, called up Voice Mailboxes
|
|||
|
|
almost everyday, etc. He was about 13 years old, a little whiny brat.
|
|||
|
|
Well, there was also a damn good phracker by the handle of Amadeus. Ever
|
|||
|
|
wonder what happened to him? Quicksilver turned him in to save his own ass.
|
|||
|
|
He also caused alot of Mailboxes to come down, and I think a few boards came
|
|||
|
|
down because of his ignorance.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Just thought I'd mention that for those who knew Amadeus or Narcsilver.

Various programs with code-hacking functions written by members of TES-
|

Commcracker and Coax - written by Cronus
|
|||
|
|
HAMR, HAMR 2.0,HAMR128 - written by Dissident
|
|||
|
|
CHOMPS under development - Cronus
|
|||
|
|
CHOMPS-Amiga also under development - Dissident
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
All of the above except for HAMR 128 and CHOMPS Amiga were written/are being
|
|||
|
|
developed for Commodore 64s... Commcracker/Coax/HAMR require 1660 modems,
|
|||
|
|
the rest will work with Hayes Compats.
