There are several methods of ruining your friends’ lives via their
answering machines. You can fill their incoming message tapes with
bogus messages, you can turn them on/off remotely and hear/erase
all the messages, and in some beauties, you can change the outgoing
message. The latter is the most devastating of all answering
machine methods, and it will get the most space here.
- Most answering machines today have ’beeperless remote’ features, even in the
bargain-basement models. Normally they are protected by a security code
of between 1 and 3 digits, and quite often even the 3-digit ones are
so easily cracked it’s disgusting.
Once ’inside’ an answering machine, you can do a number of things. Always,
you will be able to hear, and later erase, any incoming messages. This is
helpful to the prankster in that it lets him intercept his target’s
important messages, indicating the target’s future whereabouts for later
attacks. It also, of course, can be used to prevent the target from
receiving important messages, with possible dire consequences to the
target’s social/work life.
- Another interesting feature of many answering machines is the ability to
change the outgoing message. When I bought my own unit, the last thing I
asked the salesman was, ’Can you change the outgoing message from remote?’
As soon as he said ’No’ I bought it. That’s how you should shop for
answering machines too, as is about to become clear...
A few messages to replace a target’s answering message with:
Blackmail messages:
’Hi, you have reached Wayne’s House of Drugs. Currently we have Home Boge,
Mexican redhair, Black hash from California, crack and Ice in stock. Please
leave your name, phone number, and the amount and kind of poison you need
and I’ll get back to you. Thanks and Party Hardy! BEEEEEEP’
’This is The Installer’s Codeline. Here are this weeks codes:
604 385 9682 0194. 604 477 9980 6682. 604 727 4432 8282. These are
all BC Tel Calling Cards. Please leave your codes at the tone.
BEEEEEEEEP’
A slightly less malignant blackmail message:
’Hi, this is the Silva Residence. No one can come to the phone right now
since we’re having our nightly session of hot steamy gay family orgy fun.
As soon as we get out of the shower, we’ll call you back. See ya later,
you hunk of man-meat you! BEEEEEEEP’
For a machine in a doctor’s office:
’You have reached Dr. Jones’ office. We are sorry, but this office is closed
due to a pending malpractice suit. Thank you for calling. BEEEEEEP’
For a known police informer (to wit: a NARC):
’This is the Sidney RCMP. There is no-one in the station to take your call
right now. If this is an emergency, officers are available at the
Sidney Donut Shoppe, at 656-4983. BEEEEEEEEP’
(The above blackmail messages also work well for narcs)
Universally useful:
’This answering machine accepts all collect calls. (10 second pause while
operator does her thing) Here are this weeks codes: (etc etc etc)’
Here’s something I have never tried, tell me if it works for you:
Send your mark’s machine several seconds of 2600 Hz and the appropriate
MF coding for a nice faraway lame BBS or something, as the outgoing message.
Then advertise (anonymously) on some other faraway BBSes the existence of a
new BBS with no download ratios, 25,000 files, etc etc etc. What happens is
that when someone calls LD (and they will), the answering machine will start
blue boxing. The phone company will not be pleased. |
