Welcome to the inaugural issue of Rage, an E-zine created and run by
|
|
me, Cronie. You're probably thinking "Oh boy, another fly-by-night,
|
|
so-called 'Underground' E-zine written by some high school kid that lives
|
|
with his parents." Well you may be right, you may be wrong, only time will
|
|
tell, but I'll try push this mag out as long as I have stuff to print. That
|
|
means that I'll only be writing one article per issue until I get writers,
|
|
or else this zine won't last past issue 2.
|
|

|
Rules of submissions:
|
|
1. Submissions must be informative and/or entertaining
|
|
2. Please don't send personal/business phone numbers, addresses,
|
|
etc... with the sole intent for other people to harass them.
|
|
I'm into harassment as much as the next guy but I'm not going
|
|
to use this mag to do your dirty work for you. Interesting
|
|
Internet sites, phone numbers and addresses are fine, though.
|
|
3. Send your submissions to cronie@hotmail.com

| Making CallerID Work For You |

|
In this day and age, all hackers and phreaks are severely agitated by
|
|
CallerID as it forces them to dial '*67' every time they need to make a call.
|
|
However, a bright idea popped into my head this morning while I was looking
|
|
over the previous night's scans: why not use CallerID to my advantage and use
|
|
it like a CNA?
|
|
|
|
I'm sure that someone somewhere has tried this before but I've never
|
|
read a file on it or heard of it being done, so I figured why not type this
|
|
up? This takes no technical knowledge, your success will depend on how well
|
|
you can BS and the gullibility of your target.
|
|
|
|
What you will need:
|
|
CallerID service (duh)
|
|
CallerID display unit (duh)
|
|
Your target's name and mailing address
|
|
Optional:
|
|
Second phone line
|
|
answering machine
|
|
|
|
Now is where your BS skill comes into play: you must somehow get your
|
|
target to call you. One way would be to just ask him to call you but you're
|
|
probably not on friendly terms with your target so my plan would be to forge
|
|
a letter from some official sounding organization. For example, you could
|
|
send a letter saying to call your number and claim a prize of some sort, but
|
|
this could arouse suspicion as people today are wary of the various
|
|
mail/phone scams out there, and your target may just discard your letter or
|
|
start harassing you, calling you up constantly asking where the Hell his
|
|
prize is. In this case your plan will have completely backfired. I would
|
|
suggest forging a letter from none other than the local phone company itself.
|
|
Now, the more detailed and aware you are, the better your chance of success.
|
|
|
|
The following is a skeleton letter I just thought up to get you
|
|
started.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
<Address of your
|
|
phone service
|
|
provider here>
|
|
|
|
<Target's
|
|
address
|
|
here>
|
|
|
|
Dear Customer:
|
|
We are experiencing problems with excess noise on subscriber lines
|
|
servicing your area which may have been caused by a recent system upgrade.
|
|
Please dial <your # here> and listen for three distinct tones. Dial this
|
|
number direct, without using a calling card or any star codes as these may
|
|
disrupt the test. If you do NOT hear three tones after ten seconds then dial
|
|
'9' (touch tone or pulse) and leave a message requesting service to your
|
|
line, you will not be charged extra for requesting this service. We
|
|
apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
|
|
|
|
<Some signature
|
|
of a higher up.>
|
|
|
|
This letter is meant only for a template, if you can think of
|
|
something better then by all means, use your idea. Remember, the more
|
|
official you can make it look, the better, so don't write this up in ink and
|
|
hand print the address on the envelope.
|
|
|
|
Now if you use the above example then you will want to set up an
|
|
answering machine with "three distinct tones." Generate them with your
|
|
computer, a tone dialer, whatever, just make sure that they are loud and
|
|
clear. I would suggest you use a second line to do this (such as your data
|
|
line, just stay off the modem for a few days) in case your primary line gets
|
|
tied up with telemarketers, relatives, etc...
|
|
|
|
With a little luck, your target will call your number and discard the
|
|
letter. Now I'm not saying that this is risk free. Your target may get
|
|
suspicious and do some further investigating, which is something that you
|
|
don't want to happen, so don't try this on paranoid types like you and I.
|
|
This is another reason to use a line dedicated for your modem: If he ever
|
|
calls again then he will just get a constant ring or busy if you're online.
|
|
|
|
Another idea is to give the number of a friend that has callerID
|
|
that you always hang out with. Just drop by his house peruse his callerID
|
|
history, (DO NOT lead on that you know anything about a guy calling for some
|
|
test number.)
|
|
|
|
Good luck!
|
