I will speak of my own views on hacking which shouldn't reflect the feelings of the entire hacking community but I would guess a large amount. First of all hacking is getting more and more risky everyday. Because of this, hacking for fun isn't as safe as it used to be (although most of my hacking is for fun). The reason people (people I know) hack is because we believe in free information exchange. This means that I should be able to freely access any information that is available over the modem that I want. There are obvious reasons why this can't be achieved, but if people have information that is that sensitive then it should not be put out over the modem. Now the second and biggest misconception about hacking is how the hacker actually "hacks". Most people think that hacking is just basically getting lucky and guessing a password that lets you into a system. This is *very* untrue. Let us take an example that you have just broken into the CIA's computer system. So suddenly you get a -> prompt. Now what do you do?!? This is the difference between the hacker and some kid that is good at guessing. The kid may be able to guess a password, but if he doesn't know what to do once he's in then he might as well have not even hacked the password at all. So, the main objective of the hacker is to concentrate on learning how to use a system. After he has done that then he can figure out ways to get around certain kinds of security and get to the stuff he wants. So what you should do is read all the manual's and text files that you can get your hands on. Because before you can defeat a system, you must know how it works (this works for life in general). Ok, now you understand what hacking is and how you should go about learning it. Phone Hacking Basic Boxes Technically Explained BLUE The "Blue Box" was so named because of the color of the first one found. The design and hardware used in the Blue Box is fairly sophisticated, and its size varies from a large piece of equipment to the size of a pack of cigarettes. The Blue Box contains 12 or 13 buttons or switches that emit multi-frequency tones characteristic of the tones used in the normal operation of the telephone toll (long distance) switching network. The Blue Box enables the user to place free long distance calls by circumventing toll billing equipment. The Blue Box may be directly connected to a phone line, or it may be acoustically coupled to a telephone handset by placing the Blue Box's speaker next to the transmitter or the telephone handset. To understand the nature of a fraudulent Blue Box call, it is necessary to understand the basic operation of the Direct Distance Dialing (DDD) telephone network. When a DDD call is properly originated, the calling number is identified as an integral part of establishing the connection. This may be done either automatically or, in some cases, by an operator asking the calling party for his telephone number. This information is entered on a tape in the Automatic Message Accounting (AMA) office. This tape also contains the number assigned to the trunk line over which the call is to be sent. The information relating to the call contained on the tape includes: called number identification, time of origination of call, and info that the called number answered the call and time of disconnect at the end of the call. Although the tape contains info with respect to many different calls, the various data entries with respect to a single call are eventually correlated to provide billing info for use by your Bell's accounting department. The typical Blue Box user usually dials a number that will route the call into the telephone network without charge. For example, the user will very often call a well-known INWATS (toll-free) customer's number. The Blue Box user, after gaining this access to the network and, in effect, "seizing" control and complete dominion over the line, operates a key on the Blue Box which emits a 2600 Hertz (cycles per second) tone. This tone causes the switching equipment to release the connection to the INWATS customer's line. The 2600Hz tone is a signal that the calling party has hung up. The Blue Box simulates this condition. However, in fact the local trunk on the calling party's end is still connected to the toll network. The Blue Box user now operates the "KP" (Key Pulse) key on the Blue Box to notify the toll switching equipment that switching signals are about to be emitted. The user then pushes the "number" buttons on the Blue Box corresponding to the telephone # being called. After doing so he/she uses the "ST" (Start) key to tell the switching equipment that signalling is complete. If the call is completed, only the portion of the original call prior to the 'blast' of 2600Hz tone is recorded on the AMA tape. The tones emitted by the Blue Box are not recorded on the AMA tape. Therefore, because the original call to the INWATS # is toll- free, no billing is rendered in connection with the call. Although the above is a description of a typical Blue Box call using a common way of getting into the network, the operation of a Blue Box may vary in any one or all of the following respects: The Blue Box may include a rotary dial to apply the 2600Hz tone and the switching signals. This type of Blue Box is called a "dial pulser" or "rotary SF" Blue box. Getting into the DDD toll network may be done by calling any other toll-free # such as Universal Directory ASSistance (555-1212) or any number in the INWATS network, either inter-state or intra-state, working or non-working. Entrance into the DDD toll network may also be in the form of "short haul" calling. A "short haul" call is a call to any # which will result in a lesser amount of toll charges than the charges for the call to be completed by the Blue Box. For example, a call to Birmingham from Atlanta may cost $.80 for the first 3 minutes while a call from Atlanta to Los Angeles is $1.85 for 3 minutes. Thus, a short haul, 3-minute call to Birmingham from Atlanta, switched by use of a Blue Box to Los Angeles, would result in a net fraud of $1.05 for a 3 minute call. A Blue Box may be wired into the telephone line or acoustically coupled by placing the speaker of the Blue Box near the transmitter of the phone handset. The Blue Box may even be built inside a regular Touch-Tone phone, using the phone's push- buttons for the Blue Box's signalling tones. A magnetic tape recording may be used to record the Blue Box tones for certain phone numbers. This way, it's less conspicuous to use since you just make it look like a walkman or whatever, instead of a box. All Blue Boxes, except "dial pulse" or "Rotary SF" Blue Boxes, must have the following 4 common operating capabilities: It must have signalling capability in the form of a 2600Hz tone. This tone is used by the toll network to indicate, either by its presence or its absence, an "on hook" (idle) or "off hook" (busy) condition of the trunk. The Blue Box must have a "KP" tones that unlocks or readies the multi-frequency receiver at the called end to receive the tones corresponding to the called phone #. The typical Blue Box must be able to emit M tones which are used to transmit phone #'s over the toll network. Each digit of a phone # is represented by a combination of 2 tones. For example, the digit 2 is transmitted by a combination of 700Hz and 1100Hz. The Blue Box must have an "ST" key which consists of a combination of 2 tones that tell the equipment at the called end that all digits have been sent and that the equipment should start switching the call to the called number. BLACK This Box was named because of the color of the first one found. It varies in size and usually has one or two switches or buttons. Attached to the telephone line of a called party, the Black Box provides toll-free calling *to* that party's line. A Black Box user tells other people beforehand that they will not be charged for any call placed to him. The user then operates the device causing a "non-charge" condition ("no answer" or "disconnect") to be recorded on the telephone company's billing equipment. A Black Box is relatively simple to construct and is much less sophisticated than a Blue Box. NOTE: This will not work on any type of Electronic Switching Systems, (ESS, DMS100 etc.) CHEESE This Box was named after the container in which the first one was found. Its design may be crude or very sophisticated. Its size varies; one was found the size of a half-dollar. A Cheese Box was used most often by bookmakers or betters to place wagers without detection from a remote location. The device inter-connects 2 phone lines, each having different #'s but each terminating at the same location. In effect, there are 2 phones at the same location which are linked together through a Cheese Box. It is usually found in an unoccupied apartment connected to a phone jack or connecting block. The bookmaker, at some remote location, dials one of the numbers and stays on the line. Various bettors dial the other number but are automatically connected with the book maker by means of the Cheese Box interconnection. If, in addition to a cheese box, a Black Box is included in the arrangement, the combined equipment would permit toll-free calling on either line to the other line. If a police raid were conducted at the terminating point of the conversations -the location of the Cheese Box- there would be no evidence of gambling activity. This device is sometimes difficult to identify. Law enforcement officials have been advised that when unusual devices are found associated with telephone connections the phone company security representatives should be contacted to assist in identification. (This probably would be good for a BBS, especially with the Black Box set up. and if you ever decided to take the board down, you wouldn't have to change your phone #. It also makes it so you yourself cannot be traced. I am not sure about calling out from one though.) VOICE MAIL BOX HACKING Hello again, and welcome to another œegions “f œucifer text file! This text file has to do with hacking and scanning VMBs. The reason I am writing this file is because I am very good at it, and have had years of experience. In fact I have been called by MCI for screwing them over by attacking and taking over a whole damn system with a few friends of mine. Anyway, hacking VMBs is very simple and basically safe, and not only that but they are cool to have around. You can give them to friends, you can trade them for access on bulletin boards, or you can use it for yourself. As for this 'Tutorial on Hacking VMBs', we will be talking about what systems to hack, how you go about hacking them, default passwords, hints on better scanning, and having your very own box. VMB, in case you don't know, stands for 'Voice Mail Box'. Now a VMB is like an answering machine. You can use it for all sorts of things. Most VMB systems are dialed though 800 numbers. People call up the VMB system that you have a box on, and dial in your box number and then leave you a message. Whenever you want to check your box, you just call up, enter your password and read your messages. Inside a VMB you can do whatever, you can leave messages to others on the system, you can change your 'Out Going' message, you can have guest boxes (Explained later), you can have the box call your house when you get an Urgent message, you can do a lot of things. In fact, on some systems you can even CALL OUT through them, so they can be used as a code of sorts! They are cool to have. You should scan/hack out Virgin Systems, this is another way of calling a system that hasn't been hack out yet. Also, CINDI Systems and ASPEN Systems have the best boxes and the most options that VMB Systems can offer. I will be talking about ASPEN System today since I know most about those. Okay once you've found your Virgin VMB System, you start to scan. Just incase you don't know what scanning is, that means you search for boxes that are hackable (Explained later on). Now you dial up the system and when it picks up and the bitch starts to talk, press the "#" key. It will then ask you for your box number... now there are two different way the ASPEN System can be configured: 1) a "3 Digit Box Number System" or 2) a "4 Digital Box Number System". Now lets just say this system is a 3 Digit System. Okay, when it asks for your Box Number, enter in 999, now it will say one of three things: [These are known as 'Greeting Names'] 1. John Doe [Box owners name] 2. "Box Number 999 Is Not a Valid Box Number" 3. "Box Number 999" Now, if it either says 1 or 2, go to box number 998...997...996...995..etc, but if it says 3, then you are lucky, now it will ask you for your password, now you are probably saying 'Oh no this is where it gets difficult'... well you are WRONG! This part is easy. Here is a list of ASPEN Default Passwords: * We will use box number 666 as an example box # [ BN = Box Number ] List of Default Password: Combination Result 1-BN 1666 BN+1 667 0-BN 0666 BN-0 6660 Most Common Äį BN 666 Now enter in a those defaults, try JUST the Box Number first, ASPENs usually use that most. Now, if you try all those Defaults and still can not get into that Voice Mail Box, then that means that the box has been already taken, but the owner hasn't changed his 'Generic Message', if you don't get in, you will just have to search until you get in. Okay, once you get your first box, *DO NOT* change anything!! That will come later. Your first box is, as what is known as a 'Scanning Box'! What you do with your Scanning Box is this: You enter "3" from the main commands menu, and it will ask you for the box number. Now that command is the "Check for Receipt" command, what it does it check Box #xxx for mail from you. This command is very convenient for us VMB Hackers. To use that command to your advantage, you enter in box a box number and it will say 1 of the three 'Greeting Names', like before, if it say #3, then you write down that Box Number and hack it later. But if it says 1 or 2, then just keep scanning! All boxes with the number 3 Greeting Name is known as a 'Hackable Box'. Now you keep scanning until you have gone all the way down to Box number 000 or whatever is the lowest box it supports. Now, once you have your list this is when all the fun starts! Now you are ready to hack! Hacking Out Your New Found 'Hackable' Boxes: Okay this is the easy part. After you spent most of your time by scanning the system you should be used to the system and how it works, that should make hacking the ASPEN all the easier. Now, if you had a 'Scanning Box', you should know what the default password was for your Scanning Box. Well if the password for your Scanning Box was just the Box Number, then *EVERY* other hackable box should have the SAME default password. VMB Systems have only one default password, If one box has the BN for a Default PW, the all the others will too. Okay, you call up the VMB System will the list of 'Hackable' boxes by your side, and when the bitch is talking, press the "#" key. When it asks you for your box number, enter in the first box number on your list. When it asks for your password, enter in the Default Password Sequence. Now if you don't get into that box, it's not a problem, just keep going down your list. You should get into a few. But remember, just because a box is marked 'Hackable', it doesn't mean you will definitely get into it. Okay, now you have a few dozen boxes. You can now use you Scanning Box to do whatever you please. ASPEN Guest Boxes: Once you have a box of your own, you can give out 'Guest Boxes'. Guest Boxes are like Sub Boxes in your box. In ASPEN you have 4 of them. If you give out Guest Box #1 to John Doe, Mr. Doe can call in, enter in the password YOU set for him, and leave you messages, but not only that, you can leave messages to HIM! Which means, if his is in New York, and you are in California, and neither of you have codes to call each other, then you can leave messages thru your 800 VMB. Here is a list and explanation of all 4 of the Guest Boxes: 0. Main Box - Your Voice Mail Box! 1. Guest Box #1 - Can Leave & Receive Messages 2. Guest Box #2 - Can Leave & Receive Messages 3. Home Box - Can Leave & Receive Messages 4. Secretary Box - Can Check How Many Messages You Have & Receive Messages Hints On Better Scanning: A lot of people say hacking and scanning for VMBs is too damn hard... well that's because they are going at it all wrong, they probably read some lame piece of text file on Hacking VMBs that was about 500 bytes long. Well, here is a small list of hints on better scanning and hacking: 1. Do not use a Voice Mail Box hacking/scanning program (i.e.: VMB v1.0, ASPEN v1.0, VMBHACK v2.3, etc..) 2. Do not hack in random order (i.e.: B#999, 345, 810, etc) Always hack in order: 999, 998, 997, 996, 995...000. 3. Try to find out if it's virgin. The newer the System, the better. 4. If you have a phone with memory dial, change one entry to the number of the VMB System. 5. Don't hack the System Managers box unless you really want to. Ideas of Things To Do With Your Extra Boxes: Well since you can have up to 500 extra Voice Mail Boxes, you might not know what to do with them, here are a few ideas that can help you out: 1. Give them to friends 2. Sell them to friends 3. Offer them to sysops for better access 4. Trade them for HSTs or whatever 5. Use them as a Voice Verifying line (So you don't have to give out your real voice number to BBSs when you apply!) Blue Box Tones In this short section I will attempt to list some tones that Ma Bell uses and what they are. Well here goes: Blue box frequencies: 2600 hz - used to get on/off trunk tone matrix to use after 2600 hz. 700: 1 : 2 : 4 : 7 : 11 : 900: + : 3 : 5 : 8 : 12 : 1100: + : + : 6 : 9 : KP : 1300: + : + : + : 10 : KP2 : 1500: + : + : + : + : ST : 900 :1100 :1300 :1500 : 1700 : Use KP to start a call and ST (1500+1700) to stop. Use 2600 HZ to disconnect. Red box freqs: 1700 hz and 2200 hz mixed together. A nickel is 66 ms on (1 beep). A dime is 66ms on, 66ms off, 66ms on (2 beeps) a quarter is 33ms on, 33ms off repeated 5 times. (Ms = millisecond). For those of you who don't know, a red box simulates money being put into a pay phone. You must put in some money first though (the operator can tell if money was put in but as to how much she lets the computer answer that. (Yeah for the computer) TASI locking freq: TASI (time assignment speech interpolation) is used on satellite trunks, and basically allows more than one person to use a trunk by putting them on while the other person isn't talking. Of course, you'd never hear the other person talking on your trunk. When you start to talk, however, the TASI controller has to find an open trunk for you. Because of this, some of your speech is lost (because of the delay in finding a trunk) this is called clipping. Well, if you were transmitting data over a trunk, clipping would really mess up the data. So there is something called a TASI locking frequency which keeps the TASI from putting anyone else on your trunk or you on anyone else's trunk. In any case the freq. is 1850 hz. (Sent before the transmission). Have fun!!! :%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%: :% %: :% THE GREEN BOX %: :% %: :%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%: The Green Box generates useful tonessuch as COIN COLLECT, COIN RETURN, and RINGBACK. These are the tones that ACTS or the TSPS operator would send to the CO when appropriate. Unfortunately, the green box cannot be used at a fortress station, but must be used by the CALLED party. The tones (hz) are: COIN COLLECT 700 + 1100 COIN RETURN 1100 + 1700 RINGBACK 700 + 1700 Before the called party sends any of these tones, an operator released signal should be sent to alert the MF detectors at the CO. This can be done by sending 900 + 1500 Hz or a single 2600 Hz wink (90 ms) followed by a 60 ms gap and then the appropriate signal for at least 900 ms. Also, do not forget that the initial rate is collected shortly before the 3 minute period is up. :-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-::-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-: -:-:-:-:-:-:-:-: :%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%: :% %: :% THE BLOTO BOX %: :% %: :%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%: HOW TO BUILD A BLOTO BOX Finally, it is here! What was first conceived as a joke to fool the inncoent phreakers around America has finally been concieved by the one phreak who is the expert on lines and voltage: The Traveler. Other boxes by the Traveler include the White Gold Box, the Aqua Box, The Diverti Box, and the Cold Box. All of those plans will soon be available in a BBS/AE near you! Well, for you people who are unenlightened about the Blotto Box, here is a brief summery of a legend. --*-=> The Blotto Box <=-*-- For years now every pirate has dreamed of the Blotto Box. It was at first made as a joke to mock more ignorant people into thinking that the function of it actually was possible. Well, if you are The Voltage Master, it is possible. Originally conceived by King Blotto of much fame, the Blotto Box is finally available to the public. NOTE: The Traveler can not be responcable for the information disclosed in the file! This file is strictly for informational purposes and should not be actually built and used! Usage of this electronical impulse machine could have the severe results listed below and could result in high federal prosecution! Again, The Traveler TAKES NO RESPONCABILITY! All right, now that that is cleared up, here is the basis of the box and it's function. The Blotto Box is every phreaks dream... you could hold AT&T down on it's knee's with this device. Because, quite simply, it can turn off the phone lines everywhere. Nothing. Blotto. No calls will be allowed out of an area code, and no calls will be allowed in. No calls can be made inside it for that matter. As long as the switchhing system stays the same, this box will not stop at a mere area code. It will stop at nothing. The electrical impulses that emit from this box will open every line. Every line will ring and ring and ring... the voltage will never be cut off until the box/ generator is stopped. This is no 200 volt job, here. We are talking GENERATOR. Every phone line will continue to ring, and people close to the box may be electricuted if they pick up the phone. But, the Blotto Box can be stopped by merely cutting of the line or generator. If they are cut off then nothing will emit any longer. It will take a while for the box to calm back down again, but that is merely a superficial aftereffect. Once again: Construction and use of this box is not advised! The Blotto Box will continue as long as there is electricity to continue with. OK, that is what it does, now, here are some interesting things for you to do with it... --*-=> The Blotto Box Functions and Installation <=-*-- Once you have installed your Blotto, there is no turning back. The following are the instructions for construction and use of this box. Please read and heed all warnings in the above section before you attempt to construct this box. Materials: - A Honda portable generator or a main power outlet like in a stadium or some such place. - A radio shack cord set for 400 volts that splices a female plug into a phone line jack. - A meter of voltage to attach to the box itself. - A green base (i.e. one of the nice boxes about 3' by 4' that you see around in your neighborhood. They are the main switch boards and would be a more effective line to start with. or: A regular phone jack (not your own, and not in your area code! - A soudering iron and much souder. - A remote control or long wooden pole. Now. You must have guessed the construction from that. If not, here goes, I will explain in detail. Take the Honda Portable Generator and all of the other listed equiptment and go out and hunt for a green base. Make sure it is one on the ground or hanging at head level from a pole, not the huge ones at the top of telephone poles. Open it up with anything convienent, if you are two feeble that fuck don't try this. Take a look inside... you are hunting for color-coordinating lines of green and red. Now, take out your radio shack cord and rip the meter thing off. Replace it with the voltage meter about. A good level to set the voltage to is about 1000 volts. Now, attach the voltage meter to the cord and set the limit for one thousand. Plug the other end of the cord into the generator. Take the phone jack and splice the jack part off. Open it up and match the red and green wires with the other red and green wires. NOTE: If you just had the generator on and have done this in the correct order, you will be a crispy critter. Keep the generator off until you plan to start it up. Now, sauder those lines together carefully. Wrap duck tape or insultation tape around all of the wires. Now, place the remote control right on to the startup of the generator. If you have the long pole, make sure it is very long and stand back as far away as you can get and reach the pole over. NOTICE: If you are going right along with this without reading the file first, you sill realize now tHat your area code is about to become null! Then, getting back, twitch the pole/remote control and run for your damn life. Anywhere, just get away from it. It will be generating so much electricity that if you stand to close you will kill yourself. The generator will smoke, etc. but will not stop. You are now killing your area code, because all of that energy is spreading through all of the phone lines around you in every direction. Have a nice day! <%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%> <%> <%> <%> Making the <%> <%> <%> <%> Lunch Box <%> <%> ===== === <%> <%> <%> <%> Written, Typed and Created by: Dr. D-Code <%> <%> <%> <%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%>^<%> Introduction ============ The Lunch Box is a VERY simple transmitter which can be handy for all sorts of things. It is quite small and can easily be put in a number of places. I have successfully used it for tapping fones, getting inside info, blackmail and other such things. The possibilities are endless. I will also include the plans for an equally small receiver for your newly made toy. Use it for just about anything. You can also make the transmitter and receiver together in one box and use it as a walkie talkie. Materials you will need ======================= (1) 9 volt battery with battery clip (1) 25-mfd, 15 volt electrolytic capacitor (2) .0047 mfd capacitors (1) .022 mfd capacitor (1) 51 pf capacitor (1) 365 pf variable capacitor (1) Transistor antenna coil (1) 2N366 transistor (1) 2N464 transistor (1) 100k resistor (1) 5.6k resistor (1) 10k resistor (1) 2meg potentiometer with SPST switch Some good wire, solder, soldering iron, board to put it on, box (optional) Schematic for The Lunch Box =========================== This may get a tad confusing but just print it out and pay attention. ! 51 pf ! ---+---- ------------base collector ! )( 2N366 +----+------/\/\/----GND 365 pf () emitter ! ! )( ! ! +-------- ---+---- ! ! ! ! ! ! !

The GND near the switch and the GND by the 2meg potentiometer should be connected. 3. Where you see: )( () )( it is the transistor antenna coil with 15 turns of regular hook-up wire around it. 4. The middle of the loop on the left side (the left of "()") you should run a wire down to the "+" which has nothing attached to it. There is a .0047 capacitor on the correct piece of wire. 5. For the microphone use a magnetic earphone (1k to 2k). 6. Where you see "[!]" is the antenna. Use about 8 feet of wire to broadcast approx 300ft. Part 15 of the FCC rules and regulation says you can't broadcast over 300 feet without a license. (Hahaha). Use more wire for an antenna for longer distances. (Attach it to the black wire on the fone line for about a 250 foot antenna!) Operation of the Lunch Box ========================== This transmitter will send the signals over the AM radio band. You use the variable capacitor to adjust what freq. you want to use. Find a good unused freq. down at the lower end of the scale and you're set. Use the 2 meg pot. to the 2meg is for turning the Lunch Box on and off. When everything is adjusted, turn on an AM radio adjust it to where you think the signal is. Have a friend say some shit thru the Box and tune in to it. That's all there is to it. The plans for a simple receiver are shown below: The Lunch Box receiver ====================== (1) 9 volt battery with battery clip (1) 365 pf variable capacitor (1) 51 pf capacitor (1) 1N38B diode (1) Transistor antenna coil (1) 2N366 transistor (1) SPST toggle switch (1) 1k to 2k magnetic earphone Schematic for receiver ====================== [!] ! 51 pf ! +----+----+ ! ! ) 365 pf (----+ ! ) ! ! +---------+---GND ! +---*>!----base collector----- diode 2N366 earphone emitter +----- ! !
