Welcome back to all my adoring fanz and all you other scum! This is about my
|
|
12th phile so enjoy, hail praise to your gods, etc. Since the need for scams
|
|
is great and most fuckheads don't know jack, here goes another WildPhile..
|
|
Hey hey, I cam up with a name for these suckers! Anyone that has something
|
|
worth writing about, do it! One thing there will never be a shortage of HD
|
|
space for is philes man!
|
|
|
|
Well well well. Welcome to Scamming 101, your prof is Wildman! I'll do some
|
|
of the basic characteristics of social engineering, why they work, etc and
|
|
then move into some of the better scams I have come up with in kick ass
|
|
boring english classes. Original Scams work best, but some never die.
|
|
|
|
Scams work because most (note most) of the people in the world are
|
|
brain-dead idiots. They always look for guidance and a chance to look like
|
|
they know something. You can fool most of the people all of the time.
|
|
|
|
One way of getting information out of people is to give them reason to
|
|
believe you can give them something (help, information, security) for
|
|
nothing. There are many methods of adapting this to reality. One of my
|
|
favorite scams is to call up a UNIX operator posing as a AT&T rep checking
|
|
for data line problems in the area. Then you get the password out of him, BS
|
|
around, tell him everythings ok and thanks for using AT&T. See, he thinks
|
|
he's getting a line check for free, so shithead gives you the password. Get
|
|
the idea?
|
|
|
|
Another really good way is to make it so they'll look stupid if they don't
|
|
know something. This DOES NOT work well with females. They have none of this
|
|
male-ego thing. (I hope not, anyhow) Anyhow, you call the guy up and use
|
|
questions to get your point across, like, "There have been some attempts f
|
|
illict use of your credit/calling card. You're aware of what that means,
|
|
right?" or "There has been (line noise/problems/alien infestation) of the
|
|
phone lines in the area. You know what that can do to your system, right?"
|
|
|
|
Another good way is to take advantage of publictity against hackers in the
|
|
area, by switching around techniques, and freely stating that hackers are
|
|
looking for codez. "Hello, I'm from Visa, you are aware of the recent rash
|
|
of attempts to gather the numbers of Visa cards, (wait for response) We'd
|
|
like to make sure that hasn't happened........"
|
|
|
|
It's pretty basic. With females, most anyhow, you can play the whores by
|
|
taking command. It sounds sexist (really) but it does work.
|
|
|
|
Pretty simple right? I thought you'd think it was. That's the basics: May i
|
|
reccommend a Psyche 101 course, or get a college level psychology book and
|
|
read it. It's incredibly useful information. (Also great for picking up
|
|
females/getting them into bed, trust me!)
|
|
|
|
Some of my more memorable scams (i.e. the ones that WORK)
|
|
|
|
The Input-Number Scam
|
|
|
|
You'll need a tape recorder and a telephone mike for this one. Call up the
|
|
idiots, give them the line about their card being used, etc, but when you
|
|
ask for their number, tell them to input it carefully into their touch tone
|
|
phone. Tape it. Tell them your computer will scan it so you will never know
|
|
it. Use all that publicity against them. This is amazingly good: I have
|
|
never been refused. Even better for Calling Card Numbers.
|
|
|
|
The Polling Scam
|
|
|
|
Need to find out who has cards and who doesn't? This works really good during
|
|
elections, and best of all, the referendum. (Yeah, I'm Canadian -- Bite me)
|
|
Just make a poll, and call people. Be real nice and hospitable, have a chat,
|
|
etc. They'll tell you their life stories. It works best with higher-class
|
|
neighbourhoods.
|
|
|
|
The Password Scam
|
|
|
|
Need to get a password ya cant hack? This is the scam to try. Get the number
|
|
of the Unix or whatever and do a CN/A on it. (Customer Name/Address) I'm not
|
|
getting into that, it's simple, get the CN/A number for your state and call.
|
|
Get the name, look it up in the book, have a chat voice posing as AT&T and
|
|
you'd like to check their dataline. Say you cna do it there, as a real AT&T
|
|
rep would ahve 2 lines. Call on the computer ask for a password, on the
|
|
other line ask lots of STUPID questions so the guy 'll feel superior.
|
|
|
|
The Female Scam
|
|
|
|
Funny name, eh? Well, it's real simple: Get your girlfriend or a female
|
|
phreak (What a stange occurance: All you ladies can reach me at the
|
|
Cellar..) to do your scamming, females are never suspected of doing anything
|
|
illegal or quasi-illegal and can ALWAYS play the dumb act.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Lineman Scam
|
|
|
|
This is awesome for getting stuff from trucks. Call up AT&T and say you are
|
|
having problems with your phone, open a jack and fuck up the wires. They'll
|
|
send a lineman over. He'll see the problem and go to it. While he's doiing
|
|
that have some friends look though his truck and rip him off. Be friendly,
|
|
offer him a coffee, ask how the network works anyhow, how they handle all
|
|
those calls, etc (you may learn something) ... Stupid fuck don't know who
|
|
ripped him off. You can make this better if you can get a witness so if he
|
|
comes back, you can say that ths guy saw some kids in his truck, wearing
|
|
jeans and sneakers.. (general, go-nowhere discription)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Those are a few of my best, that I think should be released to the public
|
|
at large, I'm a nice guy. Feel free to modernize them in 20 years if this
|
|
phile exists then! <grin> Anyhow, until later, WildMan out Captain!
