[1] Huge Phone Bills:
1.1 If your intended victim has a middle- or high-end answering machine
or subscribes to a VMS service, you're in luck. These are usually
endowed with the capability to remotely change the outgoing message
tape (or memory, whatever) and are protected with a pathetic 2-4 digit
code. Once you crack one of these, change the message going out so
it says "This machine accepts ALL collect calls". Then get all your
friends and relatives in Europe, south America, China, Antarctica, etc
making collect calls to it. They don't have to say anything, just keep
the line open.
1.2 The bud-box. It's not a box at all really and it's the k-neetest way
for losers like your victim to phreak. What you do is hook up your
modified phone to the victim's outside terminal box (not too
difficult unless you're Capt. Kirk
would do is call 1-976-PORN for a few minutes and then bugger off
scared that someone might see them. This won't really cost your enemy
too much and he'll have his box steel-plated next time you come back
(Jas0n C0ckbyter Anders0n did this after someone went to his box to
do an ANI with a bud-box to get his new phone number. It had just been
changed because SOMEONE had posted about a 200 meg AE being at that
number).
What a vengeful phreak with brains would do is call the most expensive
phone number he can possibly think of (there are some south Pacific
Islands that are obscenely pricey to call; Marisat is a good ripoff
too...) and instead of sticking around for weeks, just put a 600 ohm
load (preferably a 10 cent resistor from Shack) across the box terminals,
and leave it there. The line will stay open until someone starts to
wonder what's going on, and by that time you'll be long gone and there'll
be about $1,000,000,000,000 in Long Distance charges already billed.
1.3 Steal his Calling Card. Post it on every BBS and AE in the entire
US of A. I don't need to say more about this and it's been done many
times anyways.
1.4 Befriend him. Include him in your elite circle of hacker friends
(none of your REAL contacts, just other losers...). Make him think he's
just totally k-awesome. Then get him excited about blowing up his
area code with a Blotto Box (ha ha ha). InSIST that every major
phreak has Blotto Boxed their exchange at least once and that if he's
ever going to be /

Sorry this file's a bit cut-off but I had to translate it from WordStar to
PCWrite (ASCII) and in the time it took I couldn't be bothered to add anything
else. So sue me.
