FREE COMPUSERVE ACCESS
|
||
---- ---------- ------
|
||
|
||
There are several ways you can go about getting CIS passwords. The
|
||
ones with unlimited access are quite a bit harder but, first of all, the
|
||
simplest to get are Radio Shack demo accounts. You can't do much but they
|
||
are still kinda fun. Good for doing research.
|
||
|
||
Use one of the following scams or a variation to obtain Radio Shack
|
||
demo accounts.
|
||
|
||
#1
|
||
|
||
Call one of your local Radio Shack stores and say, 'Hi, this is
|
||
______, I'm your CompuServe sales rep. We are doing an update on our
|
||
files, on all stores in the ______ area.' Then, ask them a bunch of
|
||
questions, like the manager's name, store location, store #, etc... If
|
||
they tell ya this without any hesitation, then you've probably got
|
||
yourself a demo account. After they tell ya all that, tell them that you
|
||
will need their present user ID that they are using to do demonstrations
|
||
of CompuServe. Then, the kicker, ask them the password. If they tell ya,
|
||
then thank them, and tell them if they have any questions to call you at
|
||
xxx-xxxx. Where xxx-xxxx is a number that is always busy. That should
|
||
keep them from getting too suspicious.
|
||
|
||
#2
|
||
|
||
I use this one the most, because I started out with the previous
|
||
method, and switched to this one because of all the info I had gathered
|
||
about the stores in my area.
|
||
Find out a manager's name of a particular store in your area, then
|
||
call another store in the same area! Be friendly, and say, "hello, this is
|
||
the manager of ______ and we can't seem to get our CompuServe demo
|
||
password to work and we have a customer here who would like to see a demo
|
||
of the service. Would you mind giving us yours until we call our D.M. and
|
||
find out what ours was changed to? As long as the two managers don't know
|
||
each other, you will have a demo account. By the way, D.M. is an
|
||
abbreviation that they use for district manager.
|
||
|
||
Well, enough of this demo account Bullshit, once you have a demo
|
||
account, log on to CIS. Go to the national user listing. Look at the
|
||
users in your area. Write them down and then call information and get
|
||
their phone numbers.
|
||
|
||
Call them up and tell them you are ______ from CIS. Continue to tell
|
||
them that because of a security breach, you are going to have to change
|
||
their password. Tell them that in order to do so, you will need their
|
||
user ID and old password. Take it down, pretend you are typing on a
|
||
terminal or something then tell them that it will be changed to ______
|
||
make up an official sounding password. Now thank them and again, give them
|
||
a busy number to call if they have questions...I find that CompuServe's
|
||
800 number works good. (It's always busy anyway.)
|
||
|
||
The third and final way I will discuss involves something more than
|
||
talking on the phone. Go into your Radio Shack, pull a CIS package off of
|
||
the wall. Rip open the pack, read and memorize the password. Walk out. I
|
||
have been busted for shoplifting but never shopreading. When the initial
|
||
hour runs out, use a credit card to gain additional hrs. of service.
|
||
|
||
Have Fun!
|
||
|
||
P.S. If all else fails, there is always ID: 77770,101 Password: FREE-DEMO
|
||
but that ID is a total waste of time. Logon with it and see what I mean.
