Intro to PhreakingBy Nickle and The Rifter

This is a very old file form our BBS -Nickle

what is phreaking?

phreaking involves ripping off ma bell and other phone companies such as mci and gte.this can be done in a variety of ways.phreaking is almost 100% illegal,but has that ever stopped any- body?

how do you phreak?

there are 3 basic ways to phuck the phone companies:

  • colored boxing.(blue,purple,etc.)
  • using sprint,mci without paying.
  • "tricks of the trade"

    colored boxing

    a pushbutton phone works by emmiting tones of different frequencies.by changing the frequencies you can do some intresting stuff.phreaks have realized this and have built devices called boxes.there are many types of boxes here is a list of a few...

    types of boxes

    color			  function
    -----                     --------
    blue - Route your own calls
    
    black - receive calls free for caller
    
    silver- free calls,etc.army uses them
    
    red   - Nickels, Dimes, and Quarters
    
    cheese box - makes calls untracable

    what are boxes continued

    most of the above boxes work by making differnt tones for each key.i have the plans for:blue,silver,gree,brown boxes if you want them send e-mail.

    how do you phreak with sprint?

    Use the sprinter, wink wink. since the break up of att cheaper phone companies such as:

    itt
    mci
    gte sprint
    metrophone
    wu

    and many more..

    until january 1st to use these services you call the local acssess number and then type in a 5 or 6 digit code.you can get programs that will call mci ,sprint,or whatever and try consecutive numbers until it gets one.to fight against this the companys use 2 things. ..

    1.they have dummy numbers that you thin k work but when you call using it they trace you!

    2.they change the numbers randomly eveery week or less,so you cant use a number to long!

    here are some access numbers you can try hacking...

    access numbers


    metrophone-(415) 579-6001
    itt-(415) 858-2750
    mci-(415) 495-2640
    sprint-(415) 348-7700

    future developments

    after january first,the date the att break up starts,all hell will break loose because the reginal companies will not no what the fuck to do! who will profit from this?

    phreaks!!
