Exposition:

|
The lastest transmittal of the Syndicate Report can now be
|
|
found on 612-829-8509. When you call the number...have your modem
|
|
set at 300 baud, and ANSWER. If this doesn't work...reset your modem
|
|
to ORIGINATE just as you would call a regular BBS. And if there are any
|
|
second parts to TSR's...they will be found on 612-829-8508. Remember...
|
|
only 300 baud.

Author's Note:
|
|
|
|
Welcome to Part 2 of The Syndicate Report Issue #13. I've added this
|
|
extra transmittal due to the extra amount of news going around. This issue
|
|
was dedicated directly to my experience with MCI and Mpls Interstate Cops.
|
|
|
|
Also, there will be an upcoming feature about Silent Assault, a local
|
|
612 Phreak, most likely in TSR #14. It will feature how SA's bust.
|
|
|
|
Don't Be Careless Out There!

"This is might be the last article I will write, I'm still waiting to
|
|
here from the Secret Service."
|
|
|
|
It was 1:11 pm - July 8, 1987. I had woken up around 11:00 pm from a
|
|
busy night of scanning Bell's Test Access System in California (415 UNIX).
|
|
That night I had gotten into the system. Nodename was 'tuuv7'. I only had a
|
|
chance to check my privs. on the Unix when I was logged out. I just sat there
|
|
staring at the 'CONNECTION LOST...' note on my screen wondering what I actually
|
|
did wrong. I tried to ring the System back to continue, but all I received was
|
|
a solid ringing. I thought that I must have tripped an alarm. I then decided
|
|
to turn in for the night, and give a wack at it in the morning.
|
|
|
|
|
|
As I said before, I woke up at 11:00. I booted up the terminal program,
|
|
and attempted to log back into the Bell Unix. It gave me a carrier, but this
|
|
time I didn't have to enter in the 'Password:', just the 'Function:'.
|
|
And all I got this time was '>UNIX=tuu7', And nothing else. I just hung up,
|
|
and would bring up the question on Osuny BBS.
|
|
|
|
I attempted to dial Osuny Bbs, only to find I had an invalid code on
|
|
my hands. Not willing to pay for an LD call, I picked out another one. Then
|
|
before I could dial the local Acc Number, I heard a loud knocking at my back
|
|
door. I wondered who the hell knocks as loud as that, and went to answer it.
|
|
As I just walked out of my room, I seen what it looked like as a local cop
|
|
searching for someone/something around my house. I didn't waste another
|
|
second, and instantly ran back to my room and stashed all the illegal items I
|
|
could into a private place. I caught my breath, and by this time they had
|
|
stopped knocking. I thought they had gone away, but instead I found them just
|
|
sitting in their unmarked car. I thought this was strange, since cops usually
|
|
come in regular cops cars to haul you away for a parking ticket. Well, I
|
|
didn't feel like letting them sit out there all day, so I walked out and ask if
|
|
I could help them. They got out of the car quicker than thought possible and
|
|
asked me questions..."What's your full name, How old are you, Do you have
|
|
a computer...YES? Do you have a modem? etc...After the 101 questions about
|
|
my life, they wanted to see my set-up because they got a call from MCI and Bell
|
|
about codes and hacking into their computers. They said they had a trace on
|
|
my line for about 3 days, and knew ever where I called. I brang them to my
|
|
room easily knowing all the illegal items had been stashed. The first of the
|
|
two Capital Police of Minneapolis (That's what their badges said), came first
|
|
to my room, and the second didn't follow right away. The first cop was a
|
|
moron. He looked over my set up, and asked what everthing was. I quess the
|
|
second cop knew all about computers. The second cop picked up all my notes and
|
|
started reading them. He first looked at Phrack World News XIV/2, then my
|
|
13th Transmittal of The Syndicate Report, then a list of local systems I had
|
|
scanned out the night before. He asked what I was looking for with all these
|
|
numbers. I just said I was looking for HLI DDS Systems, knowing he knew
|
|
nothing about HLI's. All the documents looked over were: Various Phrack
|
|
files, Syndicate Reports, a few TAP/2600 Mags., countless UNIX files and
|
|
discussions (Posts with Users Names, Systems Names, Dates etc.), and an
|
|
interview file I had for the Informant - Dan the Operator. He took all of
|
|
these and 4 books of notes I had.
|
|
|
|
I then looked at my screen, and forgotten I had a hacker loaded up,
|
|
but I only had a listing of it. He asked me what it was, I said a word
|
|
processor. He then asked my what my private phone numbers are. I told him my
|
|
parents number, and the actual one I used for scanning. But I told him a fake
|
|
number for my third line, knowing that it just rings and rings if you call it.
|
|
The second cop looked over my modem and told me he would have to take it
|
|
downtown for a while. I asked him when/if I would get it back, he said soon.
|
|
I wasn't worried to much, I had two more modems put away. He then paged
|
|
through my disks, taking all the general files, and a few utility disks etc.
|
|
He asked me about MCI's access codes I used. I told him I just tried it a
|
|
couple of times, and gave up. He didn't beleive me and asked if I gave out
|
|
the following codes to anyone, and he listed a bunch. Of course the only word
|
|
that came from me was 'NO'.
|
|
|
|
They then informed me that fraudulent use of Codes and Hacking are
|
|
illegal, and could bring Federal charges since calls where made all over
|
|
hell. He also said the Secret Service will get in touch with me. And that
|
|
was it.
|
|
|
|
I have yet to wait for the Secret Service to call, or come over. I
|
|
have really nothing to say about phreak/hacking, and no regrets as of yet.
|
|
I knew the chances wadged against me, but since I'm still a minor I continued.
|
|
|
|
The last issue of The Syndicate Report is Transmittal #13. I've put out
|
|
TSR for well over a year, and had no intention of quitting. But these
|
|
circumstances force me to stop, atleast for now. The Syndicate Report will
|
|
continue to be published monthly.
|
|
|
|
At this time I would like to thank the following people/boards:
|
|
|
|
Captian's Log - Where I first learn the very basics of phreaking.
|
|
I don't quite remember the person's name that
|
|
explained phreaking, but I thank him.
|
|
2001 BBS - Bootleg's old system in the 503. A lot of great
|
|
discussions came out of that system.
|
|
Private Sector BBS - 2600 Magazine, Kid & Co.
|
|
Police Station - Hours of hacking into this once great system.
|
|
I.P.D - International Phreaks/Pirates Division - First group
|
|
I was a member to.
|
|
Phrack Inc. - For PWN, Support and idea for The Syndicate Report
|
|
MCI - For years of loyal service
