Counterfeiting Money by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Before reading this article, it would be a very good idea to get a
|
|
book on photo offset printing, for this is the method used in
|
|
counterfeiting US currency. If you are familiar with this method
|
|
of printing, counterfeiting should be a simple task for you.
|
|
|
|
Genuine currency is made by a process called "gravure", which
|
|
involves etching a metal block. Since etching a metal block is
|
|
impossible to do by hand, photo offset printing comes into the
|
|
process.
|
|
|
|
Photo offset printing starts by making negatives of the currency
|
|
with a camera, and putting the negatives on a piece of masking
|
|
material (usually orange in color). The stripped negatives,
|
|
commonly called "flats", are then exposed to a lithographic plate
|
|
with an arc light plate maker. The burned plates are then
|
|
developed with the proper developing chemical. One at a time,
|
|
these plates are wrapped around the plate cylinder of the press.
|
|
|
|
The press to use should be an 11 by 14 offset, such as the AB Dick
|
|
360. Make 2 negatives of the portrait side of the bill, and 1 of
|
|
the back side. After developing them and letting them dry, take
|
|
them to a light table. Using opaque on one of the portrait sides,
|
|
touch out all the green, which is the seal and the serial numbers.
|
|
The back side does not require any retouching, because it is all
|
|
one color. Now, make sure all of the negatives are registered
|
|
(lined up correctly) on the flats. By the way, every time you
|
|
need another serial number, shoot 1 negative of the portrait side,
|
|
cut out the serial number, and remove the old serial number from
|
|
the flat replacing it with the new one.
|
|
|
|
Now you have all 3 flats, and each represents a different color:
|
|
black, and 2 shades of green (the two shades of green are created
|
|
by mixing inks). Now you are ready to burn the plates. Take a
|
|
lithographic plate and etch three marks on it. These marks must
|
|
be 2 and 9/16 inches apart, starting on one of the short edges.
|
|
Do the same thing to 2 more plates. Then, take 1 of the flats and
|
|
place it on the plate, exactly lining the short edge up with the
|
|
edge of the plate. Burn it, move it up to the next mark, and
|
|
cover up the exposed area you have already burned. Burn that, and
|
|
do the same thing 2 more times, moving the flat up one more mark.
|
|
Do the same process with the other 2 flats (each on a separate
|
|
plate). Develop all three plates. You should now have 4 images
|
|
on each plate with an equal space between each bill.
|
|
|
|
The paper you will need will not match exactly, but it will do for
|
|
most situations. The paper to use should have a 25% rag content.
|
|
By the way, Disaperf computer paper (invisible perforation) does
|
|
the job well. Take the paper and load it into the press. Be sure
|
|
to set the air, buckle, and paper thickness right. Start with the
|
|
black plate (the plate without the serial numbers). Wrap it
|
|
around the cylinder and load black ink in. Make sure you run more
|
|
than you need because there will be a lot of rejects. Then, while
|
|
that is printing, mix the inks for the serial numbers and the back
|
|
side. You will need to add some white and maybe yellow to the
|
|
serial number ink. You also need to add black to the back side.
|
|
Experiment until you get it right. Now, clean the press and print
|
|
the other side. You will now have a bill with no green seal or
|
|
serial numbers. Print a few with one serial number, make another
|
|
and repeat. Keep doing this until you have as many different
|
|
numbers as you want. Then cut the bills to the exact size with a
|
|
paper cutter. You should have printed a large amount of money by
|
|
now, but there is still one problem; the paper is pure white. To
|
|
dye it, mix the following in a pan: 2 cups of hot water, 4 tea
|
|
bags, and about 16 to 20 drops of green food coloring (experiment
|
|
with this). Dip one of the bills in and compare it to a genuine
|
|
US bill. Make the necessary adjustments, and dye all the bills.
|
|
Also, it is a good idea to make them look used. For example,
|
|
wrinkle them, rub coffee grinds on them, etc.
|
|
|
|
As before mentioned, unless you are familiar with photo offset
|
|
printing, most of the information in this article will be fairly
|
|
hard to understand. Along with getting a book on photo offset
|
|
printing, try to see the movie "To Live and Die in LA". It is
|
|
about a counterfeiter, and the producer does a pretty good job of
|
|
showing how to counterfeit. A good book on the subject is "The
|
|
Poor Man's James Bond".
|
|
|
|
If all of this seems too complicated to you, there is one other
|
|
method available for counterfeiting: The Canon color laser
|
|
copier. The Canon can replicate ANYTHING in vibrant color,
|
|
including US currency. But, once again, the main problem in
|
|
counterfeiting is the paper used. So, experiment, and good luck!

Credit Card Fraud brought to you by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
For most of you out there, money is hard to come by. Until now:
|
|
|
|
With the recent advent of plastic money (credit cards), it is
|
|
easy to use someone else's credit card to order the items you have
|
|
always desired in life. The stakes are high, but the payoff is
|
|
worth it.
|
|
|
|
Step One: Getting the credit card information
|
|
|
|
First off, you must obtain the crucial item: someone's credit
|
|
card number. The best way to get credit card numbers is to take
|
|
the blue carbons used in a credit card transaction at your local
|
|
department store. These can usually be found in the garbage can
|
|
next to the register, or for the more daring, in the garbage
|
|
dumpster behind the store. But, due to the large amount of credit
|
|
card fraud, many stores have opted to use a carbonless transaction
|
|
sheet, making things much more difficult. This is where your
|
|
phone comes in handy.
|
|
|
|
First, look up someone in the phone book, and obtain as much
|
|
information as possible about them. Then, during business hours,
|
|
call in a very convincing voice - "Hello, this is John Doe from
|
|
the Visa Credit Card Fraud Investigations Department. We have
|
|
been informed that your credit card may have been used for
|
|
fraudulent purposes, so will you please read off the numbers
|
|
appearing on your Visa card for verification." Of course, use
|
|
your imagination! Believe it or not, many people will fall for
|
|
this ploy and give out their credit information.
|
|
|
|
Now, assuming that you have your victim's credit card number, you
|
|
should be able to decipher the information given.
|
|
|
|
Step Two: Recognizing information from carbon copies
|
|
|
|
Card examples:
|

|
|
MM/Y1 THRU MM/Y2

[American Express]
|
|
XXXX XXXXXX XXXXX
|
|
MM/Y1 THRU MM/Y2
|
|
JOE SHMOE
|
|
|
|
Explanation:
|
|
MM/Y1 is the date the card was issued, and MM/Y2 is the
|
|
expiration date. The American Express Gold Card has numbers
|
|
XXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX, and is covered for up to $5000.00,
|
|
even if the card holder is broke.
|
|
|
|
[Mastercard]
|
|
5XXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
|
|
XXXX AAA DD-MM-YY MM/YY
|
|
JOE SHMOE
|
|
|
|
Explanation:
|
|
XXXX in the second row may be asked for during the ordering
|
|
process. The first date is when the card was new, and the
|
|
second is when the card expires. The most frequent number
|
|
combination used is 5424 1800 XXXX XXXX. There are many of
|
|
these cards in circulation, but many of these are on wanted
|
|
lists, so check these first.
|
|
|
|
[Visa]
|
|
4XXX XXX(X) XXX(X) XXX(X)
|
|
MM/YY MM/YY*VISA
|
|
JOE SHMOE
|
|
|
|
Explanation:
|
|
Visa is the most abundant card, and is accepted almost
|
|
everywhere. The "*VISA" is sometimes replaced with "BWG", or
|
|
followed with a special code. These codes are as follows:
|
|
|
|
[1] MM/YY*VISA V - Preferred Card
|
|
[2] MM/YY*VISA CV - Classic Card
|
|
[3] MM/YY*VISA PV - Premier Card
|
|
|
|
Preferred Cards are backed with money, and are much safer to
|
|
use. Classic Cards are newer, harder to reproduce cards with
|
|
decent backing. Premier Cards are Classic Cards with Preferred
|
|
coverage. Common numbers are 4448 020 XXX XXX, 4254 5123 6000
|
|
XXXX, and 4254 5123 8500 XXXX. Any 4712 1250 XXXX XXXX cards
|
|
are IBM Credit Union cards, and are risky to use, although
|
|
they are usually covered for large purchases.
|
|
|
|
Step Three: Testing credit
|
|
|
|
You should now have a Visa, Mastercard, or American Express
|
|
credit card number, with the victim's address, zip code, and phone
|
|
number. By the way, if you have problems getting the address,
|
|
most phone companies offer the Address Tracking Service, which is
|
|
a special number you call that will give you an address from a
|
|
phone number, at a nominal charge. Now you need to check the
|
|
balance of credit on the credit card (to make sure you don't run
|
|
out of money), and you must also make sure that the card isn't
|
|
stolen. To do this you must obtain a phone number that
|
|
businesses use to check out credit cards during purchases. If you
|
|
go to a department store, watch the cashier when someone makes a
|
|
credit card purchase. He/she will usually call a phone number,
|
|
give the credit information, and then give what is called a
|
|
"Merchant Number". These numbers are usually written down on or
|
|
around the register. It is easy to either find these numbers and
|
|
copy them, or to wait until they call one in. Watch what they
|
|
dial and wait for the 8 digit (usually) merchant number. Once you
|
|
call the number, in a calm voice, read off the account number,
|
|
merchant number, amount, and expiration date. The credit bureau
|
|
will tell you if it is ok, and will give you an authorization
|
|
number. Pretend you are writing this number down, and repeat it
|
|
back to them to check it. Ignore this number completely, for it
|
|
serves no real purpose. However, once you do this, the bank
|
|
removes dollars equal to what you told them, because the card was
|
|
supposedly used to make a purchase. Sometimes you can trick the
|
|
operator by telling her the customer changed his mind and decided
|
|
not to charge it. Of course, some will not allow this. Remember
|
|
at all times that you are supposed to be a store clerk calling to
|
|
check out the card for a purchase. Act like you are talking with
|
|
a customer when he/she "cancels".
|
|
|
|
Step Four: The drop
|
|
|
|
Once the cards are cleared, you must find a place to have the
|
|
package sent. NEVER use a drop more than once. The following are
|
|
typical drop sites:
|
|
|
|
[1] An empty house
|
|
|
|
An empty house makes an excellent place to send things. Send the
|
|
package UPS, and leave a note on the door saying, "UPS. I work
|
|
days, 8 to 6. Could you please leave the package on the back door
|
|
step?" You can find dozens of houses from a real estate agent by
|
|
telling them you want to look around for a house. Ask for a list
|
|
of twenty houses for sale, and tell them you will check out the
|
|
area. Do so, until you find one that suits your needs.
|
|
|
|
[2] Rent A Spot
|
|
|
|
U-Haul sometimes rents spaces where you can have packages sent and
|
|
signed for. End your space when the package arrives.
|
|
|
|
[3] People's houses
|
|
|
|
Find someone you do not know, and have the package sent there.
|
|
Call ahead saying that "I called the store and they sent the
|
|
package to the wrong address. It was already sent, but can you
|
|
keep it there for me?" This is a very reliable way if you keep
|
|
calm when talking to the people.
|
|
|
|
Do NOT try post office boxes. Most of the time, UPS will not
|
|
deliver to a post office box, and many people have been caught in
|
|
the past attempting to use a post office box. Also, when you have
|
|
determined a drop site, keep an eye on it for suspicious
|
|
characters and cars that have not been there before.
|
|
|
|
Step Five: Making the transaction
|
|
|
|
You should now have a reliable credit card number with all the
|
|
necessary billing information, and a good drop site.
|
|
|
|
The best place to order from is catalogues, and mail order houses.
|
|
It is in your best interest to place the phone call from a pay
|
|
phone, especially if it is a 1-800 number. Now, when you call,
|
|
don't try to disguise your voice, thinking you will trick the
|
|
salesperson into believing you are an adult. These folks are
|
|
trained to detect this, so your best bet is to order in your own
|
|
voice. They will ask for the following: name, name as it appears
|
|
on card, phone number, billing address, expiration date, method of
|
|
shipping, and product. Ask if they offer UPS Red shipping (next
|
|
day arrival), because it gives them less time to research an
|
|
order. If you are using American Express, you might have a bit of
|
|
a problem shipping to an address other than the billing address.
|
|
Also, if the salesperson starts to ask questions, do NOT hang up.
|
|
Simply talk your way out of the situation, so you won't encourage
|
|
investigation on the order.
|
|
|
|
If everything goes right, you should have the product, free of
|
|
charge. Insurance picks up the tab, and no one is any wiser. Be
|
|
careful, and try not to order anything over $500. In some states,
|
|
UPS requires a signature for anything over $200, not to mention
|
|
that anything over $200 is defined as grand theft, as well as
|
|
credit fraud. Get caught doing this, and you will bite it for a
|
|
couple of years. Good luck!

Making Plastic Explosives from Bleach by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Potassium chlorate is an extremely volatile explosive compound,
|
|
and has been used in the past as the main explosive filler in
|
|
grenades, land mines, and mortar rounds by such countries as
|
|
France and Germany. Common household bleach contains a small
|
|
amount of potassium chlorate, which can be extracted by the
|
|
procedure that follows.
|
|
|
|
First off, you must obtain:
|
|
|
|
[1] A heat source (hot plate, stove, etc.)
|
|
[2] A hydrometer, or battery hydrometer
|
|
[3] A large Pyrex, or enameled steel container (to weigh
|
|
chemicals)
|
|
[4] Potassium chloride (sold as a salt substitute at health and
|
|
nutrition stores)
|
|
|
|
Take one gallon of bleach, place it in the container, and begin
|
|
heating it. While this solution heats, weigh out 63 grams of
|
|
potassium chloride and add this to the bleach being heated.
|
|
Constantly check the solution being heated with the hydrometer,
|
|
and boil until you get a reading of 1.3. If using a battery
|
|
hydrometer, boil until you read a FULL charge.
|
|
|
|
Take the solution and allow it to cool in a refrigerator until it
|
|
is between room temperature and 0 degrees Celcius. Filter out the
|
|
crystals that have formed and save them. Boil this solution again
|
|
and cool as before. Filter and save the crystals.
|
|
|
|
Take the crystals that have been saved, and mix them with
|
|
distilled water in the following proportions: 56 grams per 100
|
|
milliliters distilled water. Heat this solution until it boils
|
|
and allow to cool. Filter the solution and save the crystals that
|
|
form upon cooling. This process of purification is called
|
|
"fractional crystalization". These crystals should be relatively
|
|
pure potassium chlorate.
|
|
|
|
Powder these to the consistency of face powder, and heat gently to
|
|
drive off all moisture.
|
|
|
|
Now, melt five parts Vaseline with five parts wax. Dissolve this
|
|
in white gasoline (camp stove gasoline), and pour this liquid on
|
|
90 parts potassium chlorate (the powdered crystals from above)
|
|
into a plastic bowl. Knead this liquid into the potassium
|
|
chlorate until intimately mixed. Allow all gasoline to evaporate.
|
|
|
|
Finally, place this explosive into a cool, dry place. Avoid
|
|
friction, sulfur, sulfides, and phosphorous compounds. This
|
|
explosive is best molded to the desired shape and density of 1.3
|
|
grams in a cube and dipped in wax until water proof. These block
|
|
type charges guarantee the highest detonation velocity. Also, a
|
|
blasting cap of at least a 3 grade must be used.
|
|
|
|
The presence of the afore mentioned compounds (sulfur, sulfides,
|
|
etc.) results in mixtures that are or can become highly sensitive
|
|
and will possibly decompose explosively while in storage. You
|
|
should never store homemade explosives, and you must use EXTREME
|
|
caution at all times while performing the processes in this
|
|
article.

Lockpicking I: Cars and assorted other locks
|
|
|
|
While the basic themes of lockpicking and uninvited entry have not
|
|
changed much in the last few years, some modern devices and
|
|
techniques have appeared on the scene.
|
|
|
|
Automobiles:
|
|
|
|
Many older automobiles can still be opened with a Slim Jim type of
|
|
opener (these and other auto locksmithing techniques are covered
|
|
fully in the book "In the Still of the Night", by John Russell
|
|
III); however, many car manufacturers have built cases over the
|
|
lock mechanism, or have moved the lock mechanism so the Slim Jim
|
|
will not work. So:
|
|
|
|
American Locksmith Service
|
|
P.O. Box 26
|
|
Culver City, CA 90230
|
|
|
|
ALS offers a new and improved Slim Jim that is 30 inches long and
|
|
3/4 inches wide, so it will both reach and slip through the new
|
|
car lock covers (inside the door). Price is $5.75 plus $2.00
|
|
postage and handling.
|
|
|
|
Cars manufactured by General Motors have always been a bane to
|
|
people who needed to open them, because the sidebar locking unit
|
|
they employ is very difficult to pick. To further complicate
|
|
matters, the new GM cars employ metal shields to make the use of a
|
|
Slim Jim type instrument very difficult. So:
|
|
|
|
Lock Technology Corporation
|
|
685 Main St.

|
|
|
|
LTC offers a cute little tool which will easily remove the lock
|
|
cylinder without harm to the vehicle, and will allow you to enter
|
|
and/or start the vehicle. The GMC-40 sells for $56.00 plus $2.00
|
|
for postage and handling.
|
|
|
|
The best general automobile opening kit is probably a set of
|
|
lockout tools offered by:
|
|
|
|
Steck MFG Corporation
|
|
1319 W. Stewart St.
|
|
Dayton, OH 45408
|
|
|
|
For $29.95 one can purchase a complete set of six carbon lockout
|
|
tools that will open more than 95% of all the cars around.
|
|
|
|
Kwickset locks have become quite popular as one step security
|
|
locks for many types of buildings. They are a bit harder to pick
|
|
and offer a higher degree of security than a normal builder
|
|
installed door lock. So:
|
|
|
|
A MFG
|
|
1151 Wallace St.
|
|
Massilon, OH 44646
|
|
|
|
Price is $11.95. Kwickset locks can handily be disassembled and
|
|
the door opened without harm to either the lock or the door by
|
|
using the above mentioned Kwick Out tool.

VS sells tryout keys for most cars (tryout keys are used since
|
|
there is no one master key for any one make of car, but there are

|
|
$20.00 a set.
|
|
|
|
Updated Lockpicking:
|
|
|
|
For years, there have been a number of pick attack procedures for
|
|
most pin and tumbler lock systems. In reverse order of ease they
|
|
are as follows:
|
|
|
|
Normal Picking: Using a pick set to align the pins, one by one,
|
|
until the shear line is set and the lock opens.
|
|
|
|
Racking: This method uses picks that are constructed with a
|
|
series of bumps, or diamond shape notches. These picks
|
|
are "raked" (i.e. run over all the pins at one time).
|
|
With luck, the pins will raise in the open position and
|
|
stay there. Raking, if successful, can be much less of
|
|
an effort than standard picking.
|
|
|
|
Lock Aid Gun: This gun shaped device was invented a number of
|
|
years ago and has found application with many
|
|
locksmiths and security personnel. Basically, a
|
|
needle shaped pick is inserted in the snout of the
|
|
"gun", and the "trigger" is pulled. This action
|
|
snaps the pick up and down strongly. If the tip is
|
|
slipped under the pins, they will also be snapped
|
|
up and down strongly. With a bit of luck they will
|
|
strike each other and separate at the shear line
|
|
for a split second. When this happens the lock
|
|
will open. The lock aid gun is not 100%
|
|
successful, but when it does work, the results are
|
|
very dramatic. You can sometimes open the lock
|
|
with one snap of the trigger.
|
|
|
|
Vibrator: Some crafty people have mounted a needle pick into an
|
|
electric toothbrush power unit. This vibrating effect
|
|
will sometimes open pin tumbler locks -- instantly.
|
|
|
|
There is now another method to open pin and wafer locks in a very
|
|
short time. Although it resembles a toothbrush pick in
|
|
appearance, it is actually an electronic device. I am speaking of
|
|
the Cobra pick that is designed and sold by:
|
|
|
|
Fed Corporation
|
|
P.O. Box 569
|
|
Scottsdale, AR 85252
|
|
|
|
The Cobra uses two nine volt batteries, teflon bearings (for less
|
|
noise), and a cam roller. It comes with three picks (for
|
|
different types of locks) and works both in America and overseas,
|
|
on pin or wafer locks. The Cobra will open group one locks

(common door locks) in three to seven seconds with no damage, in
|
|
the hands of an experienced locksmith. It can take a few seconds
|
|
more or up to a half a minute for someone with no experience at
|
|
all. It will also open group two locks (including government,
|
|
high security, and medecos), although this can take a short time
|
|
longer. It will not open GM sidear locks, although a device is
|
|
about to be introduced to fill that gap. How much for this toy
|
|
that will open most locks in seven seconds?
|
|
|
|
$235.00 plus $4.00 shipping and handling.

For you hard core safe crackers, FC also sells the MI-6 that will

If none of these safe and sane ideas appeal to you, you can always
|
|
fall back on the magic thermal lance...
|
|
|
|
The thermal lance is a rather crude instrument constructed from
|
|
3/8 inch hollow magnesium rods. Each tube comes in a 10 foot
|
|
length, but can be cut down if desired. Each one is threaded on
|
|
one end. To use the lance, you screw the tube together with a
|
|
matted regulator (like a welding outfit uses) and hook up an
|
|
oxygen tank. Then oxygen is turned on and the rod is lit with a
|
|
standard welding ignitor. The device produces an incredible
|
|
amount of heat. It is used for cutting up concrete blocks or even
|
|
rocks. An active lance will go through a foot of steel in a few
|
|
seconds. The lance is also known as a burning bar, and is
|
|
available from:

|
|
|
|
So you want to be a criminal. Well, if you want to be like James
|
|
Bond and open a lock in fifteen seconds, then go to Hollywood,
|
|
because that is the only place you are ever going to do it. Even
|
|
experienced locksmiths can spend five to ten minutes on a lock if
|
|
they are unlucky. If you are wanting extremely quick access, look
|
|
elsewhere. The following instructions will pertain mostly to the
|
|
"lock in knob" type lock, since it is the easiest to pick.
|
|
|
|
First of all, you need a pick set. If you know a locksmith, get
|
|
him to make you a set. This will be the best possible set for you
|
|
to use. If you find a locksmith unwilling to supply a set, don't
|
|
give up hope. It is possible to make your own, if you have access
|
|
to a grinder (you can use a file, but it takes forever).
|
|
|
|
The thing you need is an allen wrench set (very small). These
|
|
should be small enough to fit into the keyhole slot. Now, bend
|
|
the long end of the allen wrench at a slight angle (not 90
|
|
degrees). Now, take your pick to a grinder or a file, and smooth
|
|
the end until it is rounded so it won't hang inside the lock.
|
|
Test your tool out on doorknobs at your house to see if it will
|
|
slide in and out smoothly. Now, this is where the screwdriver
|
|
comes in. It must be small enough for it and your pick to be used
|
|
in the same lock at the same time, one above the other. In the
|
|
coming instructions, please refer to this chart of the interior of
|
|
a lock:
|
|
______________________________
|
|
\ K
|
|
| | | | | | / E
|
|
| | | | \ Y [|] Upper tumbler pin
|
|
^ ^ / H [^] Lower tumbler pin
|
|
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ \ O [-] Cylinder wall
|
|
/ L (This is a greatly simplified
|
|
\ E drawing)
|
|
______________________________/
|
|
|
|
The object is to press the pin up so that the space between the
|
|
upper pin and the lower pin is level with the cylinder wall. Now,
|
|
if you push a pin up, it's tendency is to fall back down, right?
|
|
That is where the screwdriver comes in. Insert the screwdriver
|
|
into the slot and turn. This tension will keep the "solved" pins
|
|
from falling back down. Now, work from the back of the lock to
|
|
the front, and when you are through, there will be a click, the
|
|
screwdriver will turn freely, and the door will open.
|
|
|
|
Do not get discouraged on your first try! It will probably take
|
|
you about twenty to thirty minutes your first time. After that,
|
|
you will quickly improve with practice.

Solidox Bombs by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Most people are not aware that a volatile, extremely explosive
|
|
chemical can be bought over the counter: Solidox.
|
|
|
|
Solidox comes in an aluminum can containing 6 grey sticks, and can
|
|
be bought at Kmart, and various hardware supply shops for around
|
|
$7.00. Solidox is used in welding applications as an oxidizing
|
|
agent for the hot flame needed to melt metal. The most active
|
|
ingredient in Solidox is potassium chlorate, a filler used in many
|
|
military applications in the WWII era.
|
|
|
|
Since Solidox is literally what the name says: SOLID OXygen, you
|
|
must have an energy source for an explosion. The most common and
|
|
readily available energy source is common household sugar, or
|
|
sucrose. In theory, glucose would be the purest energy source,
|
|
but it is hard to find a solid supply of glucose.
|
|
|
|
Making the mixture:
|
|
|
|
[1] Open the can of Solidox, and remove all 6 sticks. One by
|
|
one, grind up each of the sticks (preferably with a mortar
|
|
and pestle) into the finest powder possible.
|
|
[2] The ratio for mixing the sugar with the Solidox is 1:1, so
|
|
weigh the Solidox powder, and grind up the equivalent amount
|
|
of sugar.

It is just that simple! You now have an extremely powerful

substance that can be used in a variety of applications. A word
|
|
of caution: be EXTREMELY careful in the entire process. Avoid

friction, heat, and flame. A few years back, a teenager I knew

blew 4 fingers off while trying to make a pipe bomb with Solidox.

High Tech Revenge: The Beigebox rev.2 by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
-------------Introduction-------------
|
|
Have you ever wanted a lineman's handset? Surely every phreak has at
|
|
least once considered the phun that he could have with one. After searching
|
|
unlocked phone company trucks for months, we had an idea. We could build
|
|
one. We did, and named it the "Beige Box" simply because that is the color
|
|
of ours.
|
|
The beigebox is simply a consumer lineman's handset, which is a
|
|
phone that can be attached to the outside of a person's house. To
|
|
fabricate a beigebox, follow along.
|
|
|
|
---------Construction and Use---------
|
|
The construction is very simple. First you must understand the concept of
|
|
the device. In a modular jack, there are four wires. These are red, green,
|
|
yellow, and black. For a single line telephone, however, only two matter:
|
|
the red (ring) and green (tip). The yellow and the black are not neccessary
|
|
for this project. A lineman's handset has two clips on it: the ring and
|
|
the tip. Take a modular jack and look at the bottom of it's casing. There
|
|
should be a grey jack with four wires (red, green, yellow & black)
|
|
leading out of it. To the end of the red wire attach a red aligator clip.
|
|
To the end of the green wire attatch a green aligator clip. The yellow
|
|
and black wires can be removed, although I would only set them aside so
|
|
that you can use the modular jack in future projects. Now insert your
|
|
telephone's modular plug into the modular jack. That's it. This particular
|
|
model is nice because it is can be easily made, is inexpensive, uses
|
|
common parts that are readily available, is small, is lightweight,
|
|
and does not require the destruction of a phone.
|
|
|
|
------------Beige Box Uses------------
|
|
There are many uses for a Beige Box. However, before you can use it,
|
|
you must know how to attach it to the output device. This device can be
|
|
of any of Bell switching apparatus that include germinal sets (i.e.
|
|
remote switching centers, bridgin heads, cans, etc.). To open most Bell
|
|
Telephone switching apparatus, you must have a 7/16 inch hex driver
|
|
(or a good pair of needle nose pliers work also).
|
|
This piece of equipment can be picked up at your local hardware store.
|
|
With your hex driver (or pliers), turn the security bolt(s) approximately
|
|
1/8 of an inch counter-clockwise and open. If your output device is locked,
|
|
then you must have some knowledge of destroying and/or picking locks.
|
|
However, we have never encountered a locked output device. Once you have
|
|
opened your output device, you should see a mass of wires connected to
|
|
terminals. On most output devices, the terminals should be labeled "T"
|
|
(Tip -- if not labeled, it is usually on the left) and "R" (Ring -- if
|
|
not labeled, usually on the right).
|
|
|
|
Remember: Ring - red - right. The "Three R's" -- a simple way to
|
|
remember which is which. Now you must attach all the red alligator clip
|
|
(Ring) to the "R" (Ring) terminal.
|
|
Attach the green alligator clip (Tip) to the "T" (Tip) terminal.
|
|
|
|
Note: If instead of a dial tone you hear nothing, adjust the alligator
|
|
clips so that they are not touching each other terminals. Also make sure
|
|
they are firmly attached. By this time you should hear a dial tone.
|
|
Dial ANI to find out the number you are using (you wouldn't want to use
|
|
your own). Here are some practicle aplications:
|
|
|
|
> Eavesdropping
|
|
> Long distance, static free free fone calls to phriends
|
|
> Dialing direct to Alliance Teleconferencing (also no static)
|
|
> Phucking people over
|
|
> Bothering the operator at little risk to yourself
|
|
> Blue Boxing with greatly reduced chance of getting caught
|
|
> Anything at all you want, since you are on an extension of that line.
|
|
|
|
Eavesdropping
|
|
-------------
|
|
To be most effective, first attach the Beige Box then your phone. This
|
|
eliminates the static caused by connecting the box, therefore
|
|
reducing the potential suspicion of your victim. When eavesdropping,
|
|
it is allways best to be neither seen nor heard. If you hear someone
|
|
dialing out, do not panic; but rather hang up, wait, and pick up the
|
|
receiver again. The person will either have hung up or tried to complete
|
|
their call again. If the latter is true, then listen in, and perhaps you
|
|
will find information worthy of blackmail! If you would like to know who
|
|
you are listening to, after dialing ANI, pull a CN/A on the number.
|
|
|
|
Dialing Long Distance
|
|
---------------------
|
|
This section is self explanitory, but don't forget to dial a "1" before
|
|
the NPA.
|
|
|
|
Dialing Direct to Aliance Teleconferencing
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
Simply dial 0-700-456-1000 and you will get instructions from there.
|
|
I prefer this method over PBX's, since PBX's often have poor reception
|
|
and are more dificult to come by.
|
|
|
|
Phucking People Over
|
|
--------------------
|
|
This is a very large topic of discussion. Just by using the other topics
|
|
described, you can create a large phone bill for the person (they will
|
|
not have to pay for it, but it will be a big hassle for them). In addition,
|
|
since you are an extension of the person's line, you can leave your
|
|
phone off the hook, and they will not be able to make or receive calls.
|
|
This can be extremely nasty because no one would expect the cause
|
|
of the problem.
|
|
Bothering the Operator
|
|
----------------------
|
|
This is also self explanitary and can provide hours of entertainment.
|
|
Simply ask her things that are offensive or you would not like traced
|
|
to your line. This also corresponds to the previously described section,
|
|
Phucking People Over. After all, guess who's line it gets traced to?
|
|
He he he...
|
|
|
|
Blue Boxing
|
|
-----------
|
|
See a file on Blue Boxing for more details. This is an especially nice
|
|
feature if you live in an ESS-equiped prefix, since the calls are, once
|
|
again, not traced to your line...
|
|
|
|
---POTENTIAL RISKS OF BEIGE BOXING----
|
|
Overuse of the Beige Box may cause suspicians within the Gestapo,
|
|
and result in legal problems. Therefor, I would recomend you:
|
|
|
|
> Choose a secluded spot to do your Beige Boxing,
|
|
> Use more than one output device
|
|
> Keep a low profile (i.e., do not post under your real
|
|
name on a public BBS concering your occomplishments)
|
|
> In order to make sure the enemy has not been inside your output
|
|
device, I recomend you place a piece of transparent tape over
|
|
the opening of your output device. Therefor, if it is
|
|
opened in your abscence, the tapqe will be displaced and
|
|
you will be aware of the fact that someone has intruded
|
|
on your teritory.
|
|
|
|
Now, imagine the possibilities: a $2000 dollar phone bill for
|
|
that special person, 976 numbers galore, even harassing the
|
|
operator at no risk to you! Think of it as walking into an
|
|
enemies house, and using their phone to your heart's content.

How to make a CO2 bomb by the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
You will have to use up the cartridge first by either shooting it
|
|
or whatever. With a nail, force a hole bigger so as to allow the
|
|
powder and wick to fit in easily. Fill the cartridge with black
|
|
powder and pack it in there real good by tapping the bottom of the
|
|
cartridge on a hard surface (I said TAP not SLAM!). Insert a fuse.
|
|
I recommend a good water-proof cannon fuse, or an m-80 type fuse,
|
|
but firecracker fuses work, if you can run like a black man runs
|
|
from the cops after raping a white girl.) Now, light it and run
|
|
like hell! It does wonders for a row of mailboxes (like the ones
|
|
in apartment complexes), a car (place under the gas tank), a
|
|
picture window (place on window sill), a phone booth (place right
|
|
under the phone), or any other devious place. This thing throws
|
|
shrapnel, and can make quit a mess!! -Jolly Roger-

|
|
Thermite II... or A better way to make Thermite by Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Thermite is nasty shit. Here is a good and easy way to make it.
|
|
The first step is to get some iron-oxide (which is RUST!). Here is
|
|
a good way to make large quantities in a short time:
|
|
|
|
- Get a DC convertor like the one used on a train set. Cut the
|
|
connector off, seperate the wires, and strip them both.
|
|
|
|
- Now you need a jar of water with a tablespoon or so of sodium
|
|
chloride (which is SALT!) added to it. This makes the water
|
|
conductive.
|
|
|
|
- Now insert both wires into the mixture (I am assuming you
|
|
plugged the convertor in...) and let them sit for five minutes.
|
|
One of them will start bubbling more than the other. This is the
|
|
POSITIVE(+) wire. If you do not do this test right, the final
|
|
product will be the opposite (chemically) of rust, which is RUST
|
|
ACID. You have no use for this here (although it IS useful!).
|
|
|
|
- Anyway, put the nail tied to the positive wire into the jar. Now
|
|
put the negative wire in the other end. Now let it sit overnight
|
|
and in the morning scrape the rust off of the nail & repeat until
|
|
you got a bunch of rust on the bottom of the glass. Be generous
|
|
with your rust collection. If you are going through the trouble of
|
|
making thermite, you might as well make a lot, right?
|
|
|
|
- Now remove the excess water and pour the crusty solution onto a
|
|
cookie sheet. Dry it in the sun for a few hours, or inside
|
|
overnight. It should be an orange-brown color (although I have
|
|
seen it in many different colors! Sometimes the color gets fucked
|
|
up, what can I say... but it is still iron oxide!)
|
|
|
|
- Crush the rust into a fine powder and heat it in a cast-iron pot
|
|
until it is red. Now mix the pure iron oxide with pure alluminum
|
|
filinos which can be bought or filed down by hand from an aluminum
|
|
tube or bar. The ratio or iron oxide to aluminum is 8 grams to 3
|
|
grams.
|
|
|
|
- Congrats! You have just made THERMITE! Now, to light it...
|
|
|
|
- Thermite requires a LOT of heat (more than a blow torch!) to
|
|
ignite. However, a magnesium ribbon (which is sorta hard to find..
|
|
call around) will do the trick. It takes the heat from the
|
|
burning magnesium to light the thermite.
|
|
|
|
- Now when you see your victim's car, pour a fifty-cent sized pile
|
|
onto his hood, stick the ribbon in it, and light the ribbon with
|
|
the blow torch. Now chuckle as you watch it burn through the hood,
|
|
the block, the axle, and the pavement. BE CAREFUL! The ideal
|
|
mixtures can vaporize CARBON STEEL! Another idea is to use
|
|
thermite to get into pay phone cash boxes. HAVE FUN!! -Jolly Roger-

|
|
|
Touch Explosives by the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
This is sort of a mild explosive, but it can be quite dangerous in
|
|
large quantities. To make touch explosive (such as that found in a
|
|
snap-n-pop, but more powerful), use this recipe:
|
|
|
|
- Mix iodine crystals into ammonia until the iodine crystals will
|
|
not dissolve into the ammonia anymore. Pour off the excess ammonia
|
|
and dry out the crystals on a baking sheet the same way as you
|
|
dried the thermite (in other words, just let it sit overnight!).
|
|
|
|
- Be careful now because these crystals are now your touch
|
|
explosive. Carefully wrap a bunch in paper (I mean carefully!
|
|
Friction sets 'em off!) and throw them around.. pretty loud, huh?
|
|
They are fun to put on someone's chair. Add a small fish sinker to
|
|
them and they can be thrown a long distance (good for crowds,
|
|
football games, concerts, etc.) Have fun! -Jolly Roger-
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Letter Bombs by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
- You will first have to make a mild version of thermite. Use my
|
|
recipe, but substitute iron fillings for rust.
|
|
|
|
- Mix the iron with aluminum fillings in a ratio of 75% aluminum
|
|
to 25% iron. This mixture will burn violently in a closed space
|
|
(such as an envelope). This bring us to our next ingredient...
|
|
|
|
- Go to the post office and buy an insulated (padded) envelope.
|
|
You know, the type that is double layered... Seperate the layers
|
|
and place the mild thermite in the main section, where the letter
|
|
would go. Then place magnesium powder in the outer layer. There is
|
|
your bomb!!
|
|
|
|
- Now to light it... this is the tricky part and hard to explain.
|
|
Just keep experimenting until you get something that works. The
|
|
fuse is just that touch explosive I have told you about in another
|
|
one of my anarchy files. You might want to wrap it like a long
|
|
cigarette and then place it at the top of the envelope in the
|
|
outer layer (on top of the powdered magnesium). When the touch
|
|
explosive is torn or even squeezed hard it will ignite the
|
|
powdered magnesium (sort of a flash light) and then it will burn
|
|
the mild thermite. If the thermite didn't blow up, it would at
|
|
least burn the fuck out of your enemy (it does wonders on human
|
|
flesh!).
|
|
|
|
NOW that is REVENGE! -Jolly Roger-

Paint Bombs by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
To make a pain bomb you simply need a metal pain can with a
|
|
refastenable lid, a nice bright color paint (green, pink, purple,
|
|
or some gross color is perfect!), and a quantity of dry ice. Place
|
|
the paint in the can and then drop the dry ice in. Quicky place
|
|
the top on and then run like hell! With some testing you can time
|
|
this to a science. It depends on the ratio of dry ice to paint to
|
|
the size of the can to how full it is. If you are really pissed
|
|
off at someone, you could place it on their doorstep, knock on the
|
|
door, and then run!! Paint will fly all over the place HAHAHA!!

Ways to send a car to Hell by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
There are 1001 ways to destroy a car but I am going to cover only
|
|
the ones that are the most fun (for you), the most destructive
|
|
(for them), and the hardest to trace (for the cops).
|
|
|
|
- Place thermite on the hood, light it, and watch it burn all the
|
|
way through the pavement!
|
|
|
|
- Tape a CO2 bomb to the hood, axel, gas tank, wheel, muffler,
|
|
etc.)
|
|
|
|
- Put a tampon, dirt, sugar (this one is good!), a ping pong ball,
|
|
or just about anything that will dissolve in the gas tank.
|
|
|
|
- Put potatoes, rocks, banannas, or anything that will fit, into
|
|
the tailpipe. Use a broom handle to stuff 'em up into the
|
|
tailpipe.
|
|
|
|
- Put a long rag into the gas tank and light it...
|
|
|
|
- Steal a key, copy it, replace it, and then steal the stereo.
|
|
|
|
- Break into the car. Cut a thin metal ruler into a shape like
|
|
this:
|
|
----
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| <
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
Slide it into the outside window and keep pulling it back up until
|
|
you catch the lock cable which should unlock the door. This device
|
|
is also called a SLIM JIM. Now get the stereo, equalizer, radar
|
|
detector, etc. Now destroy the inside. (A sharp knife does wonders
|
|
on the seats!)

Do ya hate school? by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
- One of my favorites for getting out of a class or two is to call
|
|
in a bomb threat. Tell 'em that it is in a locker. Then they have
|
|
to check them all, whilst you can slip away for an hour or two.
|
|
You can even place a fake bomb (in any locker but YOURS!). They
|
|
might cancel school for a week while they investigate (of course,
|
|
you will probably have to make it up in the summer...).
|
|
|
|
- Get some pure potassium or pure sodium, put it in a capsule, and
|
|
flush it down the toilet (smells awful! Stinks up the whole school!).
|
|
|
|
- Use a smoke grenade in the hallway.
|
|
|
|
- Steal the computer passwords & keys. Or steal the 80 column cards
|
|
inside if they are (gag) IBM.
|
|
|
|
- Make friends with student assistants and have them change your
|
|
grades when the teachers hand in their bubble sheets for the report
|
|
cards.
|
|
|
|
- Spit your gum out on the carpet in the library or whatever and
|
|
grind it into the carpet. Watch the janitors cry!
|
|
|
|
- Draw on lockers or spraypaint on the building that the principal
|
|
is a fascist.
|
|
|
|
- Stick a potato in the tailpipe of the principal's car.
|
|
|
|
- USE YOUR IMAGINATION! -Jolly Roger-

Phone related vandalism by the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
If you live where there are underground lines then you will be
|
|
able to ruin someone's phone life very easily. All you must do is
|
|
go to their house and find the green junction box that interfaces
|
|
their line (and possibly some others in the neighborhood) with the
|
|
major lines. These can be found just about anywhere but they are
|
|
usually underneath the nearest phone pole. Take a socket wrench
|
|
and loosen the nut on the right. Then just take clippers or a
|
|
sledge hammer or a bomb and destroy the insides and pull up their
|
|
phone cable. Now cut it into segments so it can't be fixed but
|
|
must be replaced (There is a week's worth of work for 'em!!)

Highway radar jamming by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Most drivers wanting to make better time on the open road will
|
|
invest in one of those expensive radar detectors. However, this
|
|
device will not work against a gun type radar unit in which the
|
|
radar signal is not present until the cop has your car in his
|
|
sights and pulls the trigger. Then it is TOO LATE for you to slow
|
|
down. A better method is to continuously jam any signal with a
|
|
radar signal of your own. I have tested this idea with the
|
|
cooperation of a local cop and found that his unit reads random
|
|
numbers when my car approached him. It is suprisingly easy to make
|
|
a low power radar transmitter. A nifty little semiconductor called
|
|
a Gunn Diode will generate microwaves when supplied with the 5 to
|
|
10 volt DC and enclosed in the correct size cavity (resonater). An
|
|
8 to 3 terminal regulator can be used to get this voltage from a
|
|
car's 12v system. However, the correct construction and tuning of
|
|
the cavity is difficult without good microwave measurement
|
|
equipment. Police radars commonly operate on the K band at 22 ghz.
|
|
Or more often on the X band at 10.525 ghz. most microwave intruder
|
|
alarms and motion detectors (mounted over automatic doors in
|
|
supermarkets & banks, etc.) contain a Gunn type
|
|
transmitter/receiver combination that transmits about 10 kilowatts
|
|
at 10.525 ghz. These units work perfectly as jammers. If you
|
|
cannot get one locally, write to Microwave Associates in
|
|
Burlington, Massachusettes and ask them for info on 'Gunnplexers'
|
|
for ham radio use. When you get the unit it may be mounted in a
|
|
plastic box on the dash or in a weather-proff enclosure behind the
|
|
PLASTIC grille. Switch on the power when on an open highway. The
|
|
unit will not jam radar to the side or behind the car so don't go
|
|
speeding past the radar trap. An interesting phenomena you will
|
|
notice is that the drivers who are in front of you who are using
|
|
detectors will hit their brakes as you approach large metal signs
|
|
and bridges. Your signal is bouncing off of these objects and
|
|
triggering their radar detectors! HAVE FUN!

Smoke Bombs by the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Here is the recipe for one helluva smoke bomb!
|
|
|
|
4 parts sugar
|
|
6 parts potassium nitrate (Salt Peter)
|
|
|
|
Heat this mixture over a LOW flame until it melts, stirring well.
|
|
Pour it into a future container and, before it solidifies, imbed a
|
|
few matches into the mixture to use as fuses. One pound of this
|
|
stuff will fill up a whole block with thick, white smoke!

Mail Box Bombs by the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
(1) Two litre bottle of chlorine (must contain sodium hypochlorate)
|
|
|
|
Small amount of sugar
|
|
|
|
Small amount of water
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mix all three of these in equal amounts to fill about 1/10 of the
|
|
bottle. Screw on the lid and place in a mailbox. It's hard to
|
|
believe that such a small explosion will literally rip the mailbox
|
|
in half and send it 20 feet into the air! Be careful doing this,
|
|
though, because if you are caught, it is not up to the person
|
|
whose mailbox you blew up to press charges. It is up to the city.

The easiest way to hotwire cars by the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Get in the car. Look under the dash. If it enclosed, forget it
|
|
unless you want to cut through it. If you do, do it near the
|
|
ignition. Once you get behind or near the ignition look for two
|
|
red wires. In older cars red was the standard color, if not, look
|
|
for two matched pairs. When you find them, cross them and take
|
|
off! -Jolly Roger-

How to make Napalm by the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
- Pour some gas into an old bowl, or some kind of container.
|
|
|
|
- Get some styrofoam and put it in the gas, until the gas won't
|
|
eat anymore. You should have a sticky syrup.
|
|
|
|
- Put it on the end of something (don't touch it!!). The unused
|
|
stuff lasts a long time!

Tennis Ball Bombs by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Ingredients:
|
|
|
|
- Strike anywhere matches
|
|
- A tennis ball
|
|
- A nice sharp knife
|
|
- Duct tape
|
|
|
|
Break a ton of matchheads off. Then cut a SMALL hole in the tennis

ball. Stuff all of the matchheads into the ball, until you can't
|
|
fit any more in. Then tape over it with duct tape. Make sure it is
|
|
real nice and tight! Then, when you see a geek walking down the
|
|
street, give it a good throw. He will have a blast!!

Diskette Bombs by the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
You need:
|
|
|
|
- A disk
|
|
- Scissors
|
|
- White or blue kitchen matches (they MUST be these colors!)
|
|
- Clear nail polish
|
|
|
|
- Carefully open up the diskette (3.5" disks are best for this!)
|
|
|
|
- Remove the cotton covering from the inside.
|
|
|
|
- Scrape a lot of match powder into a bowl (use a wooden scraper,
|
|
metal might spark the matchpowder!)
|
|
|
|
- After you have a lot, spread it evenly on the disk.
|
|
|
|
- Using the nail polish, spread it over the match mixture
|
|
|
|
- Let it dry
|
|
|
|
- Carefully put the diskette back together and use the nail polish
|
|
to seal it shut on the inside (where it came apart).
|
|
|
|
- When that disk is in a drive, the drive head attempts to read
|
|
the disk, which causes a small fire (ENOUGH HEAT TO MELT THE DISK
|
|
DRIVE AND FUCK THE HEAD UP!!). ahahahahaha! Let the fuckhead try
|
|
and fix THAT!!! -Jolly Roger-

Unlisted Phone Numbers by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
There are a couple of different ways of doing this. Let's see if
|
|
this one will help: Every city has one or more offices dedicated
|
|
to assigning numbers to the telephone wire pairs. These offices
|
|
are called DPAC offices and are available to service reps who are
|
|
installing or repairing phones. To get the DPAC number, a service
|
|
rep would call the customer service number for billing information
|
|
in the town that the number is located in that he is trying to get
|
|
the unlisted number of. (Got that?) The conversation would go
|
|
something like this: "Hi, Amarillo, this is Joe from Anytown
|
|
business office, I need the DPAC number for the south side of
|
|
town." This info is usually passed out with no problems, so... if
|
|
the first person you call doesn't have it, try another. REMEMBER,
|
|
no one has ANY IDEA who the hell you are when you are talking on
|
|
the phone, so you can be anyone you damn well please! (heheheheh!)
|
|
When you call the DPAC number, just tell them that you need a
|
|
listing for either the address that you have, or the name. DPAC
|
|
DOES NOT SHOW WHETHER THE NUMBER IS LISTED OR UNLISTED!! Also, if
|
|
you're going to make a habit of chasing numbers down, you might
|
|
want to check into geting a criss-cross directory, which lists
|
|
phone numbers by their addresses. It costs a couple-a-hundred bux,
|
|
but it is well worth it if you have to chase more than one or two
|
|
numbers down! -Jolly Roger-

Fuses brought to you by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
You would be surprised how many files are out there that use what
|
|
falls under the category of a "fuse." They assume that you just
|
|
have a few lying around, or know where to get them. Well, in some
|
|
parts of the country, fuses are extremely hard to come by... so
|
|
this file tells you how to make your own. Both fuses presented
|
|
here are fairly simple to make, and are fairly reliable.
|
|
|
|
SLOW BURNING FUSE
|

|
|
1 part potassium nitrate or potassium chlorate
|
|
1 part granulated sugar
|
|
2 parts hot water
|
|
|
|
- Soak strings or shoelaces in this solution
|
|
|
|
- Twist/braid 3 strands together and allow them to dry
|
|
|
|
- Check the burn rate to see how long it actually takes!!
|
|
|
|
FAST BURNING FUSE
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (40 inches per minute)
|
|
|
|

How to make Potassium Nitrate by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Potassium Nitrate is an ingredient in making fuses, among other
|
|
things. Here is how you make it:
|
|
|
|
Materials needed:
|
|
|
|
-3.5 gallons of nitrate bearing earth or other material
|
|
-1/2 cup of wood ashes
|
|
-Bucket or other similar container about 4-5 gallons in volume
|
|
-2 pieces of finely woven cloth, each a bit bigger than the
|
|
bottom of the bucket
|
|
-Shallow dish or pan at least as large in diameter as the bucket
|
|
-Shallow, heat resistant container
|
|
-2 gallons of water
|
|
-Something to punch holes in the bottom of the bucket
|
|
-1 gallon of any type of alcohol
|
|
-A heat source
|
|
-Paper & tape
|
|
|
|
Procedure:
|
|
|
|
- Punch holes on the inside bottom of the bucket, so that the
|
|
metal is"puckered" outward from the bottom
|
|
|
|
- Spread cloth over the holes from the bottom
|
|
|
|
- Place wood ashes on the cloth. Spread it out so that it covers
|
|
the entire cloth and has about the same thickness.
|
|
|
|
- Place 2nd cloth on top of the wood ashes
|
|
|
|
- Place the dirt or other material in the bucket
|
|
|
|
- Place the bucket over the shallow container. NOTE: It may need
|
|
support on the bottom so that the holes on the bottom are not
|
|
blocked.
|
|
|
|
- Boil water and pour it over the earth very slowly. Do NOT pour
|
|
it all at once, as this will clog the filter on the bottom.
|
|
|
|
- Allow water to run through holes into the shallow dish on the
|
|
bottom.
|
|
|
|
- Be sure that the water goes through ALL of the earth!
|
|
|
|
- Allow water in dish to cool for an hour or so
|
|
|
|
- Carefully drain the liquid in the dish away, and discard the
|
|
sludge in the bottom
|
|
|
|
- Boil this liquid over a fire for at least two hours. Small
|
|
grains of salt will form - scoop these out with the paper as they
|
|
form
|
|
|
|
- When the liquid has boiled down to 1/2 its original volume let
|
|
it sit
|
|
|
|
- After 1/2 hour, add equal volume of the alcohol; when this
|
|
mixture is poured through paper, small white crystals appear. This
|
|
is the posassium nitrate.
|
|
|
|
Purification:
|
|
|
|
- Redissolve crystals in small amount of boiling water
|
|
|
|
- Remove any crystals that appear
|
|
|
|
- Pour through improvised filter then heat concentrated solution
|
|
to dryness.
|
|
|
|
- Spread out crystals and allow to dry
|

Exploding lightbulbs by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Materials needed:
|
|
|
|
-lightbulb (100w)
|
|
-socket (duh...)
|
|
-1/4 cup soap chips
|
|
-blackpowder! (open some shotgun shells!)
|
|
-1/4 cup kerosene orgasoline
|
|
-adhesive tape
|
|
-lighter or small blowtorch
|
|
-glue
|
|
|
|
Procedure for a simple exploding lightbulb:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- Drill a small hole in the top of the bulb near the threads!
|
|
|
|
- Carefully pour the blackpowder into the hole. Use enough so
|
|
that it touches the filament!
|
|
|
|
- Insert into socket as normal (make sure the light is off or
|
|
else YOU will be the victim!!)
|
|
|
|
- Get the hell out!!
|
|
|
|
Procedure for a Napam Bulb:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- Heat kerosene/gasoline in a double boiler
|
|
|
|
- Melt soap chips, stirring slowly.
|
|
|
|
- Put somewhere and allow to cool
|
|
|
|
- Heat the threads of the bulb VERY carefully to melt the glue.
|
|
Remove threads, slowly drawing out the filament. Do NOT break the
|
|
cheap electrical igniters and/or the filament or this won't work!!
|
|
|
|
- Pour the liquid into the bulb, and slowly lower the filament
|
|
back down into the bulb. Make sure the filament is dipped into the
|
|
fluid.
|
|
|
|
- Re-glue the threads back on. Insert it into a socket frequently
|
|
used by the victim and get the hell out!!
|
|
|
|
When the victim flips the switch, he will be in for a BIG surprise!

Under water igniters by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Materials needed:
|
|
|
|
-Pack of 10 silicon diodes (available at Radio Shack. you will
|
|
know you got the right ones if they are very, very small glass
|
|
objects!)
|
|
-Pack of matches
|
|
-1 candle
|
|
|
|
Procedure:
|
|
|
|
- Light the candle and allow a pool of molten wax to form in the
|
|
top.
|
|
|
|
- Take a single match and hold the glass part of a single diode
|
|
against the head. Bend the diode pins around the matchhead so that
|
|
one wraps in an upward direction and thensticks out to the side.
|
|
Do the same with the other wire, but in a downward direction. The
|
|
diodes should now be hugging the matchhead, but its wires MUST NOT
|
|
TOUCH EACH OTHER!
|
|
|
|
- Dip the matchhead in wax to give it a water-proof coat. These
|
|
work underwater
|
|
|
|
- repeat to make as many as you want
|
|
|
|
How to use them:
|
|
|
|
When these little dudes are hooked across a 6v battery, the diode
|
|
reaches what is called breakdown voltage. When most electrical
|
|
components reach this voltage, they usually produce great amounts
|
|
of heat and light, while quickly melting into a little blob. This
|
|
heat is enough to ignite a matchhead. These are recommended for
|
|
use underwater, where most other igniters refuse to work. ENJOY!

Home-brew blast cannon by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Materials needed:
|
|
|
|
-1 plastic drain pipe, 3 feet long, at least 3 1/2 inches in
|
|
diameter
|
|
-1 smaller plastic pipe, about 6 inches long, 2 inches in
|
|
diameter
|
|
-1 large lighter, with fluid refills (this gobbles it up!)
|
|
-1 pipe cap to fit the large pipe, 1 pipe cap to fit the small
|
|
pipe
|
|
-5 feet of bellwire
|
|
-1 SPST rocker switch
|
|
-16v polaroid pot-a-pulse battery
|
|
-15v relay (get this at Radio Shack)
|
|
-Electrical Tape
|
|
-One free afternoon
|
|
|
|
Procedure:
|
|
|
|
- Cut the bell wire into three equal pieces, and strip the ends
|
|
|
|
- Cut a hole in the side of the large pipe, the same diameter as
|
|
the small pipe. Thread the hole and one end of the small pipe.
|
|
they should screw together easily.
|
|
|
|
- Take a piece of scrap metal, and bend it into an "L" shape,
|
|
then attach it to the level on the lighter:
|
|
|
|
/------------------------gas switch is here
|
|
V
|
|
/------
|
|
!lighter!!<---metal lever
|
|
!!!
|
|
!!
|
|
|
|
Now, every time you pull the 'trigger' gas should flow freely from
|
|
the lighter. You may need to enlarge the 'gas port' on your
|
|
lighter, if you wish to be able to fire more rapidly.
|
|
|
|
- Connect two wires to the two posts on the switch
|
|
|
|
- Cut two holes in the side of the smaller tube, one for the
|
|
switch on the bottom, and one for the metal piece on the top.
|
|
Then, mount the switch in the bottom, running the wires up and out
|
|
of the top.
|
|
|
|
- Mount the lighter/trigger in the top. Now the switch should
|
|
rock easily, and the trigger should cause the lighter to pour out
|
|
gas. Re-screw the smaller tube into the larger one, hold down the
|
|
trigger a bit, let it go, and throw a match in there. If all goes
|
|
well, you should hear a nice big 'THUD!'
|
|
|
|
- Get a hold of the relay, and take off the top.
|
|
|
|
1---------------
|
|
v/
|
|
2--------------/<--- the center object is the metal finger inside
|
|
3 the relay
|
|
cc-------------/
|
|
oo----------------4
|
|
ii
|
|
ll----------------5
|
|
|
|
Connect (1) to one of the wires coming from the switch. Connect
|
|
(2) to (4), and connect (5) to one side of the battery. Connect
|
|
the remaining wire from the switch to the other side of the
|
|
battery. Now you should be able to get the relay to make a little
|
|
'buzzing' sound when you flip the switch and you should see some
|
|
tiny little sparks.
|
|
|
|
- Now, carefully mount the relay on the inside of the large pipe,
|
|
towards the back. Screw on the smaller pipe, tape the battery to
|
|
the side of the cannon barrel (yes, but looks aren't everything!)
|
|
|
|
- You should now be able to let a little gas into the barrel and
|
|
set it off by flipping the switch.
|
|
|
|
- Put the cap on the back end of the large pipe VERY SECURELY.
|
|
You are now ready for the first trial-run!
|
|
|
|
To Test:
|
|
|
|
Put something very, very large into the barrel, just so that it
|
|
fits 'just right'. Now, find a strong guy (the recoil will
|
|
probably knock you on your ass if you aren't careful!). Put on a
|
|
shoulderpad, earmuffs, and possibly some other protective clothing
|
|
(trust the Jolly Roger! You are going to need it!). Hold the
|
|
trigger down for 30 seconds, hold on tight, and hit the switch.
|
|
With luck and the proper adjustments, you should be able to put a
|
|
frozen orange through 1/4 or plywood at 25 feet.
|
|
|
|
Have fun! -Jolly Roger-

Phone Taps by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Here is some info on phone taps. In this file is a schematic for a
|
|
simple wiretap & instructions for hooking up a small tape recorder
|
|
control relay to the phone line.
|
|
|
|
First, I will discuss taps a little. There are many different
|
|
types of taps. there are transmitters, wired taps, and induction
|
|
taps to name a few. Wired and wireless transmitters must be
|
|
physically connected to the line before they will do any good.
|
|
Once a wireless tap is connected to the line,it can transmit all
|
|
conversations over a limited reception range. The phones in the
|
|
house can even be modifies to pick up conversations in the room
|
|
and transmit them too! These taps are usually powered off of the
|
|
phone line, but can have an external power source. You can get more
|
|
information on these taps by getting an issue of Popular
|
|
Communications and reading through the ads. Wired taps, on the
|
|
other hand, need no power source, but a wire must be run from the
|
|
line to the listener or to a transmitter. There are obvious
|
|
advantages of wireless taps over wired ones. There is one type of
|
|
wireless tap that looks like a normal telephone mike. All you have
|
|
to do is replace the original mike with thisand itwill transmit
|
|
all conversations! There is also an exotic type of wired tap known
|
|
as the 'Infinity Transmitter' or 'Harmonica Bug'. In order to hook
|
|
one of these, it must be installed inside the phone. When someone
|
|
calls the tapped phone & *before* it rings,blows a whistle over
|
|
TWX machines. These run at 110 baud (last I checked! They are most
|
|
likely faster now!). Besides the TWX #'s, these machines are
|
|
routed to normal telephone #'s. TWX machines always respond with
|
|
an answerback. For example, WU's FYI TWX # is (910) 279-5956. The
|
|
answerback for this service is "WU FYI MAWA".
|
|
|
|
If you don't want to but a TWX machine, you can still send TWX
|
|
messages using Easylink [800/325-4112]. However you are gonna have
|
|
to hack your way onto this one!
|
|
|
|
700:
|
|
|
|
700 is currently used by AT&T as a call forwarding service. It is
|
|
targeted towards salesmen on the run. To understand how this
|
|
works, I'll explain it with an example. Let's say Joe Q. Salespig
|
|
works for AT&T security and he is on the run chasing a phreak
|
|
around the country who royally screwed up an important COSMOS
|
|
system. Let's say that Joe's 700 # is (700) 382-5968. Everytime
|
|
Joe goes to a new hotel (or most likely SLEAZY MOTEL), he dials a
|
|
special 700 #, enters a code, and the number where he is staying.
|
|
Now, if his boss received some important info, all he would do is
|
|
dial (700) 382-5968 and it would ring wherever Joe last progammed
|
|
it to. Neat, huh?
|
|
|
|
800:
|
|
|
|
This SAC is one of my favourites since it allows for toll free
|
|
calls. INWARD WATS (INWATS), or Inward Wide Area
|
|
Telecommunications Service is the 800 #'s that we are all familiar
|
|
with. 800 #'s are set up in service areas or bands. There are 6 of
|
|
these. Band 6 is the largest and you can call a band 6 # from
|
|
anywhere in the US except the state where the call is terminated
|
|
(that is why most companies have one 800 number for the countery
|
|
and then another one for their state.) Band 5 includes the 48
|
|
contiguous states. All the way down to band 1 which includes only
|
|
the states contiguous to that one. Therefore, less people can
|
|
reach a band 1 INWATS # than a band 6 #.
|
|
|
|
Intrastate INWATS #'s (ie, you can call it from only 1 state)
|
|
always have a 2 as the last digit in the exchange (ie, 800-NX2-
|
|
XXXX). The NXX on 800 #'s represent the area where the business is
|
|
located. For example, a # beginning with 800-431 would terminate
|
|
at a NY CO.
|
|
|
|
800 #'s always end up in a hunt series in a CO. This means that it
|
|
tries the first # allocated to the company for their 800 lines; if
|
|
this is busy, it will try the next #, etc. You must have a minimum
|
|
of 2 lines for each 800 #. For example, Travelnet uses a hunt
|
|
series. If you dial (800) 521-8400, it will first try the #
|
|
associated with 8400; if it is busy it will go to the next
|
|
available port, etc. INWATS customers are billed by the number of
|
|
hours of calls made to their #.
|
|
|
|
OUTWATS (OUTWARD WATS): OUTWATS are for making outgoing calls
|
|
to having to deal with. Here are his/her responsibilities:
|
|
|
|
1) Obtaning billing information for calling card or third number
|
|
calls
|
|
|
|
2) Identifying called customer on person-to-person calls.
|
|
|
|
3) Obtaining acceptance of charges on collect calls.
|
|
|
|
4) Identifying calling numbers. This only happens when the calling
|
|
# is not automatically recorded by CAMA (Centralized Automatic
|
|
Message Accounting) & forwarded from the local office. This could
|
|
be caused by equipment failures (ANIF- Automatic Number
|
|
Identification Failure) or if the office is not equipped for CAMA
|
|
(ONI- Operator Number Identification).
|
|
|
|
<I once has an equipment failure happen to me & the TSPS operator
|
|
came on and said, "What # are you calling FROM?" Out of curiosity,
|
|
I gave her the number to my CO, she thanked me & then I was
|
|
connected to a conversation that appeared to be between a frameman
|
|
& his wife. Then it started ringing the party I wanted to
|
|
originally call & everyone phreaked out (excuse the pun). I
|
|
immediately dropped this dual line conference!
|
|
|
|
You should not mess with the TSPS operator since she KNOWS which
|
|
number that you are calling from. Your number will show up on a
|
|
10-digit LED read-out (ANI board). She also knows whether or not
|
|
you are at a fortress phone & she can trace calls quite readily!
|
|
Out of all of the operators, she is one of the MOST DANGEROUS.
|
|
|
|
INWARD operator:
|
|
|
|
This operator assists your local TSPS ("0") operatorin connecting
|
|
calls. She will never question a call as long as the call is
|
|
withing HER SERVICE AREA. She can only be reached via other
|
|
operators or by a blue box. From a blue box, you would dial
|
|
KP+NPA+121+ST for the INWARD operator that will help you connect
|
|
any calls within that NPA only. (Blue Boxing will be discussed in
|
|
a future file).
|
|
|
|
DIRECTORY ASSISTANCE Operator:
|
|
|
|
This is the operator that you are connected to when you dial: 411
|
|
or NPA-555-1212. She does not readily know where you are calling
|
|
from. She does not have access to unlisted numbers, but she DOES
|
|
know if an unlisted # exists for a certain listing.
|
|
|
|
There is also a directory assistance operator for deaf people who
|
|
use teletypewriters. If your modem can transfer BAUDOT [(45.5
|
|
baud). One modem that I know of that will do this is the Apple Cat
|
|
acoustic or the Atari 830 acoustic modem. Yea I know they are hard
|
|
to find... but if you wanna do this.. look around!) then you can
|
|
call him/her up and have an interesting conversation. The # is:
|
|
800-855-1155. They use the standard Telex abbreviations such as GA
|
|
for go ahead. they tend to be nicer and will talk longer than your
|
|
regular operators. Also, they are more vulnerable into being
|
|
talked out of information through the process of "social
|
|
engineering" as Chesire Catalyst would put it.
|
|
|
|
<Unfortunately, they do not have access to much. I once
|
|
bullshitted with one of these operators a while back and I found
|
|
out that there are 2 such DA offices that handle TTY. One is in
|
|
Philadelphia and the other is in California. They have approx. 7
|
|
operators each. most of the TTY operators think that their job is
|
|
boring (based on an official "BIOC poll"). They also feel that
|
|
they are under-paid. They actually call up a regular DA # to
|
|
process your request (sorry, no fancy computers!)
|
|
|
|
Other operators have access to their own DA by dialing
|
|
KP+NPA+131+ST (MF).
|
|
|
|
CN/A operators:
|
|
|
|
CN/A Operators are operators that do exactly the opposite of what
|
|
directory assistance operators are for. In my experience, these
|
|
operators know more than the DA op's do & they are more
|
|
susceptable to "social engeneering." It is possible to bullshit a
|
|
CN/A operator for the NON-PUB DA # (ie, you give them the name &
|
|
they give you the unlisted number. See the article on unlisted
|
|
numbers in this cookbook for more info about them.). This is due

Basic Alliance Teleconferencing Courtesy of the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Introduction:
|
|
------------
|
|
This phile will deal with accessing, understanding and using the Alliance
|
|
Teleconferencing Systems.... it has many sections and for best use should
|
|
be printed out...enjoy...
|
|
|
|
Alliance:
|
|
--------
|
|
Alliance Teleconferencing is an independant company which allows the general
|
|
public to access and use it's conferencing equipment. Many rumors have
|
|
been floating apound that Alliance is a subsidary of AT&T.
|
|
Well, they are wrong. As stated above, Alliance is an entirely independant
|
|
company. They use sophisticated equipment to allow users to talk to many
|
|
people at once.
|
|
|
|
The Number:
|
|
---------
|
|
Alliance is in the 700 exchange, thus it is not localized, well, not
|
|
in a way. Alliance is only in certain states, and only
|
|
residents of these certain states can access by dialing direct. This,
|
|
however, will be discussed in a later chapter. The numbers for alliance are
|
|
as follows:
|
|
0-700-456-1000 (chicago)
|
|
-1001 (los angeles)
|
|
-1002 (chicago)
|
|
-1003 (houston)
|
|
-2000 (?)
|
|
-2001 (?)
|
|
-2002 (?)
|
|
-2003 (?)
|
|
-3000 (?)
|
|
-3001 (?)
|
|
-3002 (?)
|
|
-3003 (?)
|
|
|
|
The locations of the first 4 numbers are known and i have stated them.
|
|
However, the numbers in the 200x and 300x are not definately known.
|
|
Rumor has it that the pattern repeats itself but this has not been proven.
|
|
|
|
Dialing:
|
|
-------
|
|
As stated before, Alliance is only in certain stated and only these states
|
|
can access them via dialing direct. However, dialing direct causes your
|
|
residence to be charged for the conference and conference bills are not low!!!
|
|
Therefore, many ways have been discovered to start a conference without
|
|
having it billed to ones house. They are as follows:
|
|
|
|
1) Dialing through a PBX
|
|
2) Incorporating a Blue Box
|
|
3) Billing to a loop
|
|
4) Billing to a forwarded call
|
|
|
|
I am sure there are many more but these are the four i will deal with.
|
|

Phone Systems Tutorial III by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
PREFACE:
|
|
|
|
THIS ARTICLE WILL FOCUS PRIMARILY ON THE STANDARD WESTERN ELECTRIC SINGLE-
|
|
SLOT COIN TELEPHONE (AKA FORTRESS FONE) WHICH CAN BE DIVIDED INTO 3 TYPES:
|
|
- DIAL-TONE FIRST (DTF)
|
|
- COIN-FIRST (CF): (IE, IT WANTS YOUR $ BEFORE YOU RECEIVE A DIAL TONE)
|
|
- DIAL POST-PAY SERVICE (PP): YOU PAYAFTER THE PARTY ANSWERS
|
|
|
|
DEPOSITING COINS (SLUGS):
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
ONCE YOU HAVE DEPOSITED YOUR SLUG INTO A FORTRESS, IT IS SUBJECTED TO A
|
|
GAMUT OF TESTS. THE FIRST OBSTACAL FOR A SLUG IS THE
|
|
MAGNETIC TRAP. THIS WILL STOP ANY LIGHT-WEIGHT MAGNETIC SLUGS AND COINS.
|
|
IF IT PASSES THIS, THE SLUG IS THEN CLASSIFIED AS A NICKEL, DIME, OR
|
|
QUARTER. EACH SLUG IS THEN CHECKED FOR APPROPRIATE SIZE AND WEIGHT. IF THESE
|
|
TESTS ARE PASSED, IT WILL THEN TRAVEL THROUGH A NICKEL, DIME, OR QUARTER
|
|
MAGNET AS APPROPRIATE. THESE MAGNETS SET UP AN EDDY CURRENT EFFECT WHICH
|
|
CAUSES COINS OF THE APPROPRIATE CHARACTERISTICS TO SLOW DOWN SO THEY
|
|
WILL FOLLOW THE CORRECT TRAJECTORY. IF ALL GOES WELL, THE COIN WILL FOLLOW THE
|
|
CORRECT PATH (SUCH AS BOUNCING OFF OF THE NICKEL ANVIL) WHERE IT WILL
|
|
HOPEFULLY FALL INTO THE NARROW ACCEPTED COIN CHANNEL.
|
|
THE RATHER ELABORATE TESTS THAT ARE PERFORMED AS THE COIN TRAVELS DOWN THE
|
|
COIN CHUTE WILL STOP MOST SLUGS AND OTHER UNDESIRABLE COINS, SUCH AS
|
|
PENNIES, WHICH MUST THEN BE RETRIEVED USING THE COIN RELEASE LEVER.
|
|
IF THE SLUG MIRACULOUSLY SURVIVES THE GAMUT, IT WILL THEN STRIKE THE
|
|
APPROPRIATE TOTALIZER ARM CAUSING A RATCHET WHEEL TO ROTATE ONCE FOR EVERY
|
|
5-CENT INCREMENT (EG, A QUARTER WILL CAUSE IT TO ROTATE 5 TIMES).
|
|
THE TOTALIZER THEN CAUSES THE COIN SIGNAL OSCILLATOR TO READOUT A DUAL-
|
|
FREQUENCY SIGNAL INDICATING THE VALUE DEPOSITED TO ACTS (A COMPUTER) OR THE
|
|
TSPS OPERATOR. THESE ARE THE SAME TONES USED BY PHREAKS IN THE INFAMOUS RED
|
|
BOXES. FOR A QUARTER, 5 BEEP TONES ARE
|
|
OUTPULSED AT 12-17 PULSES PER SECOND (PPS). A DIME CAUSES 2 BEEP TONES AT
|
|
5 - 8.5 PPS WHILE A NICKEL CAUSES ONE BEEP TONE AT 5 - 8.5 PPS. A BEEP
|
|
CONSISTS OF 2 TONES: 2200 + 1700 HZ. A RELAY IN THE FORTRESS CALLED THE "B
|
|
RELAY" (YES, THERE IS ALSO AN 'A RELAY') PLACES A CAPACITOR ACROSS THE
|
|
SPEECH CIRCUIT DURING TOTALIZER READOUT TO PREVENT THE "CUSTOMER" FROM
|
|
HEARING THE RED BOX TONES. IN OLDER 3 SLOT PHONES: ONE BELL
|
|
(1050-1100 HZ) FOR A NICKEL, TWO BELLS FOR A DIME, AND ONE GONG (800 HZ) FOR A
|
|
QUARTER ARE USED INSTEAD OF THE MODERN DUAL-FREQUENCY TONES.
|
|
|
|
=============
|
|
=TSPS & ACTS=
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
WHILE FORTRESSES ARE CONNECTED TO THE CO OF THE AREA, ALL TRANSACTIONS ARE
|
|
HANDLED VIA THE TRAFFIC SERVICE POSITION SYSTEM (TSPS). IN AREAS THAT
|
|
DO NOT HAVE ACTS, ALL CALLS THAT REQUIRE OPERATOR ASSISTANCE, SUCH AS
|
|
CALLING CARD AND COLLECT, ARE AUTOMATICALLY ROUTED TO A TSPS OPERATOR
|
|
POSITION. IN AN EFFORT TO AUTOMATE FORTRESS
|
|
SERVICE, A COMPUTER SYSTEM KNOWN AS AUTOMATED COIN TOLL SERVICE (ACTS) HAS
|
|
BEEN IMPLEMENTED IN MANY AREAS. ACTS LISTENS TO THE RED BOX SIGNALS FROM THE
|
|
FONES AND TAKES APPROPRIATE ACTION. IT IS ACTS WHICH SAYS, "TWO DOLLARS PLEASE
|
|
(PAUSE) PLEASE DEPOSIT TWO DOLLARS FOR THE NEXT TEN SECONDS" (AND OTHER
|
|
VARIATIONS). ALSO, IF YOU TALK FOR MORE THAN THREE MINUTES AND THEN HANG-UP,
|
|
ACTS WILL CALL BACK AND DEMAND YOUR MONEY. ACTS IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR
|
|
AUTOMATED CALLING CARD SERVICE. ACTS ALSO PROVIDE TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR
|
|
CRAFTSPEOPLE (REPAIRMEN SPECIALIZING IN FORTRESSES). FOR EXAMPLE, THERE IS A
|
|
COIN TEST WHICH IS GREAT FOR TUNING UP RED BOXES. IN MANY AREAS THIS TEST CAN
|
|
BE ACTIVATED BY DIALING 09591230 AT A FORTRESS (THANKS TO KARL MARX FOR THIS
|
|
INFORMATION). ONCE ACTIVATED IT WILL REQUEST THAT YOU DEPOSIT VARIOUS COINS.
|
|
IT WILL THEN IDENTIFY THE COIN AND OUTPULSE THE APPROPRIATE RED BOX
|
|
SIGNAL. THE COINS ARE USUALLY RETURNED WHEN YOU HANG UP.
|
|
TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS ACTUALLY MONEY IN THE FONE, THE CO INITIATES A
|
|
"GROUND TEST" AT VARIOUS TIMES TO DETERMINE IF A COIN IS ACTUALLY IN THE
|
|
FONE. THIS IS WHY YOU MUST DEPOSIT AT LEAST A NICKEL IN ORDER TO USE A RED
|
|
BOX!
|
|
|
|
GREEN BOXES:
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
PAYING THE INITIAL RATE IN ORDER TO USE A RED BOX (ON CERTAIN FORTRESSES)
|
|
LEFT A SOUR TASTE IN MANY RED BOXER'S MOUTHS THUS THE GREEN BOX WAS INVENTED.
|
|
THE GREEN BOX GENERATES USEFUL TONES SUCH AS COIN COLLECT, COIN RETURN, AND
|
|
RINGBACK. THESE ARE THE TONES THAT ACTS OR THE TSPS OPERATOR WOULD SEND TO
|
|
THE CO WHEN APPROPRIATE. UNFORTUNATELY, THE GREEN BOX CANNOT BE USED AT A
|
|
FORTRESS STATION BUT IT MUST BE USED BY THE CALLED PARTY.
|
|
|
|
HERE ARE THE TONES:
|
|
COIN COLLECT 700 + 1100 HZ
|
|
COIN RETURN 1100 + 1700 HZ
|
|
RINGBACK 700 + 1700 HZ
|
|
BEFORE THE CALLED PARTY SENDS ANY OF THESE TONES, AN OPERATOR RELEASED
|
|
SIGNAL SHOULD BE SENT TO ALERT THE MF DETECTORS AT THE CO. THIS CAN BE
|
|
ACCOMPLISHED BY SENDING 900 + 1500 HZ OR A SINGLE 2600 HZ WINK (90 MS)
|
|
BACK AXLES BEING LOST TRYING TO TAKE DOWN A FONE! A QUICK AND DIRTY WAY TO
|
|
OPEN THE COIN BOX IS BY USING A SHOTGUN. IN DETROIT, AFTER ECOLOGISTS
|
|
CLEANED OUT A MUNICIPAL POND, THEY FOUND 168 COIN PHONE RIFLED.
|
|
IN COLDER AREAS, SUCH AS CANADA, SOME SHREWD PEOPLE TAPE UP THE FONES USING
|
|
DUCT TAPE, POUR IN WATER, AND COME BACK THE NEXT DAY WHEN THE WATER WILL HAVE
|
|
FROZE THUS EXPANDING AND CRACKING THE FONE OPEN.
|
|
IN ONE CASE, "UNAUTHORIZED COIN COLLECTORS" WHERE CAUGHT WHEN THEY
|
|
BROUGHT $6,000 IN CHANGE TO A BANK AND THE BANK BECAME SUSPICIOUS...
|
|
AT ANY RATE, THE MAIN LOCK IS AN EIGHT LEVEL TUMBLER LOCATED ON THE RIGHT SIDE
|
|
OF THE COIN BOX. THIS LOCK HAS 390,625 POSSIBLE POSITIONS (5 ^ 8, SINCE THERE
|
|
ARE 8 TUMBLERS EACH WITH 5 POSSIBLE POSITIONS) THUS IT IS HIGHLY PICK
|
|
RESISTANT! THE LOCK IS HELD IN PLACE BY 4 SCREWS. IF THERE IS SUFFICIENT
|
|
CLEARANCE TO THE RIGHT OF THE FONE, IT IS CONCEIVABLE TO PUNCH OUT THE SCREWS
|
|
USING THE DRILLING PATTERN BELOW (PROVIDED BY ALEXANDER MUNDY IN TAP #32):

AFTER THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED, THE LOCK CAN BE PUSHED BACKWARDS DISENGAGING

THE LOCK FROM THE COVER PLATE. THE FOUR BOLTS OF THE COVER PLATE CAN THEN
|
|
BE RETRACTED BY TURNING THE BOLTWORKS WITH A SIMPLE KEY IN THE SHAPE OF THE
|
|
HOLE ON THE COIN PLATE (SEE DIAGRAM BELOW). OF COURSE, THERE ARE OTHER
|
|
METHODS AND DRILLING PATTERNS.

|
|
TUMBLER ALSO) ON THE TOP RIGHT-HAND SIDE. IT IS INTERESTING TO EXPERIMENT
|
|
WITH THE COIN SHUTE AND THE FORTRESSES OWN "RED BOX" (WHICH BELL DIDN'T HAVE
|
|
THE 'BALLS' TO COLOR RED).
|
|
|
|
MISCELLANEOUS:
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
IN A FEW AREAS (RURAL & CANADA), POST-PAY SERVICE EXISTS. WITH THIS TYPE OF
|
|
SERVICE, THE MOUTHPIECE IS CUT OFF UNTIL THE CALLER DEPOSITS MONEY WHEN
|
|
THE CALLED PARTY ANSWERS. THIS ALSO ALLOWS FOR FREE CALLS TO WEATHER AND
|
|
OTHER DIAL-IT SERVICES! RECENTLY, 2600 MAGAZINE ANNOUNCED THE CLEAR BOX WHICH
|
|
CONSISTS OF A TELEPHONE PICKUP COIL AND A SMALL AMP. IT IS BASED ON THEo
|
|
RINCIPAL THAT THE RECEIVER IS ALSO A WEAK TRANSMITTER AND THAT BY AMPLIFYING
|
|
YOUR SIGNAL YOU CAN TALK VIA THE TRANSMITTER THUS AVOIDING COSTLY
|
|
TELEPHONE CHARGES! MOST FORTRESSES ARE FOUND IN THE 9XXX
|
|
AREA. UNDER FORMER BELL AREAS, THEY USUALLY START AT 98XX (RIGHT BELOW THE
|
|
99XX OFFICIAL SERIES) AND MOVE DOWNWARD.
|
|
SINCE THE LINE, NOT THE FONE, DETERMINES WHETHER OR NOT A DEPOSIT
|
|
MUST BE MADE, DTF & CHARGE-A-CALL FONES MAKE GREAT EXTENSIONS!
|
|
FINALLY, FORTRESS FONES ALLOW FOR A NEW HOBBY--INSTRUCTION PLATE COLLECTING.
|
|
ALL THAT IS REQUIRED IS A FLAT-HEAD SCREWDRIVER AND A PAIR OF NEEDLE-NOSE
|
|
PLIERS. SIMPLY USE THE SCREWDRIVER TO LIFT UNDERNEATH THE PLATE SO THAT YOU
|
|
CAN GRAB IT WITH THE PLIERS AND YANK DOWNWARDS. I WOULD SUGGEST COVERING THE
|
|
TIPS OF THE PLIERS WITH ELECTRICAL TAPE TO PREVENT SCRATCHING. TEN CENT PLATES
|
|
ARE DEFINITELY BECOMING A "RARITY!"
|
|
|
|
FORTRESS SECURITY:
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
WHILE A LONELY FORTRESS MAY SEEM THE PERFECT TARGET, BEWARE! THE GESTAPO
|
|
HAS BEEN KNOWN TO STAKE OUT FORTRESSES FOR AS LONG AS 6 YEARS ACCORDING TO THE
|
|
GRASS ROOTS QUARTERLY. TO AVOID ANY PROBLEMS, DO NOT USE THE SAME FONES
|
|
REPEATEDLY FOR BOXING, CALLING CARDS, & OTHER EXPERIMENTS. THE TELCO KNOWS HOW
|
|
MUCH MONEY SHOULD BE IN THE COIN BOX AND WHEN ITS NOT THERE THEY TEND TO GET
|
|
PERTURBED (READ: PISSED OFF).

Black Box Plans by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Introduction:
|
|
------------
|
|
At any given time, the voltage running through your phone is about 20
|
|
Volts. When someone calls you, this voltage goes up to 48 Volts and rings
|
|
the bell. When you answer, the voltage goes down to about 10 Volts.
|
|
The phone company pays attention to this. When the voltage drops to 10,
|
|
they start billing the person who called you.
|
|
|
|
Function:

The Black Box keeps the voltage going through your phone at 36 Volts,
|
|
so that it never reaches 10 Volts. The phone company is thus fooled
|
|
into thinking you never answered the phone and does not bill the caller.
|
|
However, after about a half hour the phone company will get suspicious
|
|
and disconnect your line for about 10 seconds.

Materials:
|
|
---------
|
|
1 1.8K 1/2 Watt Resistor
|
|
1 1.5V LED
|
|
1 SPST Switch
|
|
|
|
Procedure:
|
|
---------
|
|
(1) Open your phone by loosening the two screws on the bottom and
|
|
lifting the case off.
|
|
(2) There should be three wires: Red, Green, and Yellow. We'll be working
|
|
with the Red Wire.
|
|
(3) Connect the following in parallel:
|
|
A. The Resistor and LED.
|
|
B. The SPST Switch.
|
|
In other words, you should end up with this:
|
|
(Red Wire)
|
|
!---/\/\/\--O--!
|
|
(Line)-----! !-----(Phone)
|
|
!-----_/_------!
|
|
/\/\/\ = Resistor
|
|
O = LED
|
|
_/_ = SPST
|
|
|
|
Use:
|
|
---
|
|
The SPST Switch is the On/Off Switch of the Black Box. When the box is off,
|
|
your phone behaves normally. When the box is on and your phone rings,
|
|
the LED flashes. When you answer, the LED stays on and the voltage
|
|
is kept at 36V, so the calling party doesn't get charged. When the box
|
|
is on, you will not get a dial tone and thus cannot make calls.
|
|
Also remember that calls are limited to half an hour.

The Infamous Blotto Box!! by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
(I bet that NOONE has the balls to build this one!)
|
|
|
|
Finally, it is here! What was first conceived as a joke to fool the innocent
|
|
phreakers around America has finally been conceived!
|
|
Well, for you people who are unenlightened about the Blotto Box,
|
|
here is a brief summery of a legend.
|
|
|
|
--*-=> The Blotto Box <=-*--
|
|
|
|
For years now every pirate has dreamed of the Blotto Box. It was at first
|
|
made as a joke to mock more ignorant people into thinking that
|
|
the function of it actually was possible. Well, if you are The Voltage
|
|
Master, it is possible. Originally conceived by King Blotto of much fame,
|
|
the Blotto Box is finally available to the public.
|
|

should not be actually built and used! Usage of this electronical impulse
|
|
area code, because all of that energy is spreading through all of the
|
|
phone lines around you in every direction.
|
|
|
|
Have a nice day!
|
|
|
|
--*-=>The Blotto Box: Aftermath<=-*--
|
|
Well, that is the plans for the most devastating and ultimately deadly
|
|
box ever created. My hat goes off to: King Blotto (for the original idea).

Blowgun by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
In this article I shall attempt to explain the use and manufacture
|
|
of a powerfull blow-gun and making darts for the gun.The possesion of
|
|
the blow gun described in this article IS a felony.
|
|
So be carefull where you use it. I don't want to get you all busted.
|
|
|
|
Needed:
|
|
|
|
1. Several strands of yarn (About 2 inches a-piece)
|
|
2. A regular pencil
|
|
3. A 2 1/4 inch long needle (hopefully with a beaded head. If not
|
|
obtainable,wrap tape around end of needle.
|
|
4. 2-3 1/4 foot pipe. (PVC or Aluminum) Half a inch in diameter
|
|
|
|
Constructing the dart:
|
|
|
|
1st- Carefully twist and pull the metal part (Along with eraser)
|
|
of the pencil till it comes off.
|
|
2nd- Take Pin and start putting about 5-7 Strands of yarn on the pin. Then
|
|
push them up to the top of the pin. But not over the head of the pin (orthe
|
|
tape).
|
|
3rd- Push pin through the hollow part of the head where the pencil was before.
|
|
4th- That should for a nice looking dart. (see illustration)
|
|
|
|
#####
|
|
>>>>>-----/ # is the yarn
|
|
> is the head of the pencil
|
|
- is the pin it-self
|
|
/ is the head of the pin
|
|
|
|
Using the Darts:
|
|
|
|
1st- Now take the finished dart and insert it in the tube
|
|
(if it is too small put on more yarn.)
|
|
2nd- Aim the tube at a door, wall, sister, ect.
|
|
3rd- blow on the end of the pipe.
|
|
4th- Sometimes the end of the pipe may be sharp. When this happens I
|
|
suggest you wrap it with some black electrician tape.It should feel
|
|
a lot better.

Brown Box Plans by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
This is a fairly simple mod that can be made to any phone. All it does
|
|
is allow you to take any two lines in your house and create a party
|
|
line. So far I have not heard of anyone who has any problems
|
|
with it. There is one thing that you will notice when you are
|
|
one of the two people who is called by a person with a brown box. The other
|
|
person will sound a little bit faint. I could overcome this with some
|
|
amplifiers but then there wouldn't be very many of these made [Why not?].
|
|
I think the convenience of having two people on the line at once will
|
|
make up for any minor volume loss.
|
|
|
|
Here is the diagram:
|
|
This one is effective, and any fool can do it. Remove the top
|
|
air filter. That's it! Or a oldie but goodie: sugar in the gas tank.
|
|
Stuff rags soaked in gas up the exhaust pipe. Then you wonder why
|
|
your "friend" has trouble with his/her lungs. Here's one that takes
|
|
time and many friends. Take his/her car then break into their house
|
|
and reassemble it, in their living or bedroom. Phun eh? If you're
|
|
into engines, say eeni mine moe and point to something and remove it.
|
|
They wonder why something doesn't work. There are so many others, but
|
|
the real good juicy ones come by thinking hard.

Ripping off Change Machines by the Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
Have you ever seen one of those really big changer machines in airports
|
|
laundrymats or arcades that dispense change when you put in your 1 or 5
|
|
dollar bill? Well then, here is an article for you.
|
|
|
|
1) Find the type of change machine that you slide in your bill length
|
|
wise, not the type where you put the bill in a tray and then slide the
|
|
tray in!!!
|
|
2) After finding the right machine, get a $1 or $5 bill. Start crumpling
|
|
up into a ball. Then smooth out the bill, now it should have a very wrinkly
|
|
surface.
|
|
3) Now the hard part. You must tear a notch in the bill on the
|
|
left side about 1/2 inch below the little 1 dollar symbol (See Figure).
|
|
4) If you have done all of this right then take the bill and go out the
|
|
machine. Put the bill in the machine and wait. What should happen is:
|
|
when you put your bill in the machine it thinks everything is fine.
|
|
When it gets to the part of the bill with the notch cut out, the
|
|
machine will reject the bill and (if you have done it right)
|
|
give you the change at the same time!!! So, you end up getting your bill
|
|
back, plus the change!! It might take a little practice, but once
|
|
you get the hang of it, you can get a lot of money!

|
idea. Have fun!!! -----------------------Jolly Roger
