These offices are called DPAC offices and are available to service Reps who are installing or repairing phones. To get the DPAC number, a service rep would call the old stand-by, customer service number for billing information in the town the number the phone is located in that he is trying to get the unlisted number of.. Okay? The conversation would go like this, 'Hi, San Fran this is Joe from San Mateo Business office. I need your DPAC number for the south end of town.' The information is usually passed out with no hassle, if the first person does not have it or is not helpful, try one from a different prefix in the same city. The 'rep' would then call DPAC (note; he would have the listing info from his own district; again he is calling from a nearby town). ''Hi, Dee-Pac this is Joe from San Mateo Phone Store, I need the listing for 812 First Street.'' The San Francisco will then give the number at the address requested. There is no notation at DPAC if the number is listed or unlisted. The DPAC number for S.F. is, last time it was checked, (415) 774-8924.... Call Collect...

HOW TO GET ANYTHING ON ANYBODY, PART II ! ! ! ! ROCK DIGGING; THE ART OF TURNING OUT FACTS ! ! ! +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ DIGGING Without a doubt the number one, very most important thing an investigator can know is WHERE TO FIND INFORMATION. Out there in the jungle are books, libraries, computers, newspapers, and civil servants, all justifying their existence by collecting and storing data on YOU, and unfortunately, me... One can prepare a dossier on almost any person, or company, by simply under- standing the system, and knowing where and how to dig. The finished product will be so complete it will scare you. A background investigation done in this fashion will contain things the target himself had forgotten, along with things neither his mother nor wife ever knew... The following list is the most complete collection myself and a number of experts in the field could come up with. Most of the sources listed are publicly, or semi-publicly available. Some are considered closed. In dealing with any set of records under the control of a living person there is no such thing as a closed source. Some simply necessitate a different plan of attack. Civil servants, city hall record keepers and such, are often bendable by the correct use of flattery and involving them in an ''important investigation'' to find the real father of Susie before she succumbs to the cancer... Bribes are often an acceptable alternative. The key here is to determine who actually needs to be bribed. Never go for the head of a department if a low- paid clerk has physical control of the materials... Many of these sources can be found at a large library, or private collection. Rarely does one have to buy expensive directories. When applicable I have included source suggestions. GOOD HUNTING! TELEPHONE DIRECTORIES --- Most Americans are listed in a phone directory somewhere. You can find major and many minor directories at big city librar- ies. The phone company will also give you, free of charge, any directory you ask for, if it is for business purposes. REVERSE DIRECTORIES --- This particular edition lists the number, 771-3082, followed by the owner, Jones, Jim, and address, 69 Peyton Place. Same sources as the other directories. PRIVATE TELCO INFORMATION --- Every phone company has a list of their unpublished numbers, along with long distance call records, credit applications, where else the target has had a telephone and any additional listings or references he used on his original application. This information comes under the control of the telco's Chief Special Agent. He is in charge of hunting down nasties who defraud the phone company in one way or another and is probably an ex-cop or federal agent. He usually cooperate with legitimate police agencies and may help along a PI or other person with a cause. In smaller phone companies, or outlying districts the Chief Operator will have access to this information. Good people to make friends with....... UNLISTED NUMBERS --- There is no legal way to get an unlisted/unpublished number. There are a couple of other ways. [see part I] The phone company puts out a small book of all unlisted numbers in their area. A phone person can sometimes be bribed to sell a copy of this book. If the number is actually unlisted a good private detective will have sources for it or follow my technique. [This was an excerpt from ''How to Get Anything on Anybody,'' by Lee Lapin. It's a good book. Buy copies for all your friends.] [MORE NEXT PHILE...] XXXXX XXXXX X X XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX X X XXXX XXXXX XXXXX X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X XXXXX X X XXXXX XXXXX X XXXXX X X XXXXX XXXXX +----------------------------------------------------- ____ __ __ __ ______ / __ \ / / / / / / / ____/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / /_/ / / / / / / / / /__ / ____/ / / / / / / / ___/ / / / /_/ /_/ / / /____ /_/hree \___/\___/orld /______/lite (916) 689-6241 24 Hours/7 Days SysOp: Dark Creaper Co-Sysop: ShAdOwRuNnEr +--------------------------------+ ! HOW TO GET ANYTHING ON ANYBODY ! ! PART III ! ! ! ! MORE INFO-GATHERING... ! +--------------------------------+ CROSS DIRECTORY --- Each local phone company publishes a cross directory. This book lists every address in the district by street and then gives the occupants' name and telephone number. It DOES NOT list unlisted/unpublished numbers. The directory is normally updated every couple of months and is rented on a subscription basis. Many local libraries will have a copy. Most collection agents, some answering services and many news departments of radio and television stations will have a copy you can borrow for a moment. This directory is invaluable when tracking someone. If you can't find their number you can at least call their ex-neighbors with a nice story and come up with some information... CITY DIRECTORIES --- Since the 1800's R.L. Polk Company of Taylor, Michigan has published city directories for most cities in the US. Sometime later they were joined by Cole's Householder Directors, Lincoln Nebraska. These directories are NOT based on telco information, but are compiled by having some $3.00 an hour ''investigator'' walk from house to house asking who lives there, how many in the family, the phone number, etc. If they miss anyone they leave a mail form. Many people who would not list their phone numbers, or don't have a phone in their name, will obligingly fill out these snoop forms because of the accompanying propaganda about how important the information is... Most libraries will have at least one of the directories for their area, phone companies will list the local office of the directory compilers. Collection agencies and news departments will have a copy of the directory. CERTIFICATES OF EXISTENCE --- The government loves you. To prove that they are constantly collecting data to verify that you exist... BIRTH CERTIFICATE --- Name of child, eye color, name of father, mother's maiden name, date and place of birth, father's occupation, if couple not married at birth, name of doctor who delivered. MARRIAGE CERTIFICATES --- Name and place of birth for the man and woman, her maiden name, man's occupation, status of any previous marriages, birth dates and places, blood type. DEATH CERTIFICATES --- Date and cause of death, doctor who signed the certificate, residence and occupation, SS number, military record, birth date and place, cemetery and funeral home names [whatever turns you on...]. DMV --- The Department of Motor Vehicles is a natural source for important data; in some states a call will give you the info sought, in some one mails a license number and a small fee (around $1.00) to the DMV and they will return the favor with owner info, and in some states they will not give out any details to anyone but the cops. One approach to this problem is to go thru the cops (I was hitchhiking and left something in this car, the license number is...). SCHOOLS --- A cumulative file is kept on every student from kindergarten thru PH.D. by the school involved. This file will include such things as parents, addresses, grades, IQ, receiving and forwarding addresses. [This has been yet another boring excerpt from ''How to Get Anything on Anybody.''
