- ---------------------------------------
- This file isn't "How to use a diverter",
- it's more like "how to get lots of them
- as fast as I can to make confrences and
- trace-free calls without getting nailed"
- I will discuss several ways to do this..
- I wrote the text file in 40 column even
- though I have 80 so everyone vith 40 col
- can read it easily. And so when/if you
- print it out you can waste half the
- paper!!
-
- ---------------------------------------
- HOW TO FIND THEM: METHOD ONE-
- needed-
- The Yellow Pages
- touch tone phone
- Your areas ANI phone number
-
- Okay. Open the phone book to PLUMBERS.
- Find one that says 24 hour service
- or something like that. Dial the #.
- Let it ring. You should hear a click,
- then a ring. that is the call diverting.
- the other ring often sounds different.
- get the other people to hang up. now,
- THIS IS VITAL: DONT ANNOY THEM! They're
- not dumb and will catch on if you do.
- ask in foreigner type voice "Is Abdul
- there?" or something like that. they
- will hang up. Wait for a dial tone,
- then dial the ANI number. Thats the
- thing when you dial it it reads back
- your number. if it says your number,
- then its not a diverter. Try another
- plumber and take your business elsewhere
- but if it reads a different number, its
- a diverter.. It wont be the number you
- dialed though. Write down the number you
- dialed somewhere. Now you have a diverter.
- Other people to do this to are Doctors,
- Electricians, or anyone with 24-hour
- service in their ad.
- ---------------------------------------
- Problems with diverters:
- ---------------------------------------
- Some diverters have security features
- in them to keep out the big bad phreaks.
- For example, Radio Shack sells
- diverters. They hang up on you(and
- disconnect the call) either after five
- or ten minutes, depending on what the
- owner sets a switch to. I hate those.
- Also, some diverters click when used.
- every minute or so. If you dial
- ALLIANCE and it wont go though, then
- dial 10288 first then alliance.
- this will rout the call through AT&T.
- ---------------------------------------
- Why Diverters Are Superior:
- ---------------------------------------
- Often if you use a diverter thats local
- to you you get a great connection. Why?
- Your dialing off of its dial tone as if
- it was your own, but not getting billed
- of course. Diverters dont trace or have
- ANI like those nasty 950 companies.
- They reach any number that you can..
- If you call a number that traces with
- a diverter(Gvmt/TRW/etc) it gets the
- DIverter number and not yours. You
- are safe, the Plumber/Doctor has some
- serious explaining to do to the feds.
- As well as a large phone bill that
- he dosent know where it all came from.
- Phun at its best!!!
- ---------------------------------------
- HOW TO FIND THEM-------------------
- you need-
- A PAYPHONE(unless your in
- Crossbar, but still
- WATCH OUT!)
- The number to the Credit Operator
-
- I reccomend using a payphone for this
- one since you are screwing with your
- local telco who dosent like you much.
-
- Ok, dial the credit op. Ask for the
- AT&T CREDIT OPERATOR. They should put
- on some lame recording. Wait till its
- over then wait for a dial tone. Hit
- 9+1+Area Code and Phone Number.
- This is convenient if you have no
- quarter. This is how it works:
- 1) you call credit op and ask
- for at&t credit op
- 2) Op hits button to DIAL number
- with recording. Op lets go
- of button to talk to you(IE: goes
- on to next person with ques.)
- 3) Recording Ends. It hangs up but
- you dont. you get a dial tone:
- THE CREDIT OPS DIAL TONE!!!
- 4) Dial 9+1+Area Code and Number.
-
- I reccomend hitting 9+ANI the first
- time you do this to make sure it works
- in your area. I have only tried it in
- NY Metro Area.(IE, NYC and Long Island)
- if ANI isnt a 3-digit number(NY Metro
- Area ANI: 958) but rather is a 7-digit
- phone number, hit 1+9+Area COde plus
- ANI. Depending onthe area if you dial
- a number in your area code you may not
- need to use it. Experiment! Whats rad
- is that if you dial the number it
- gives with ANI it rings. You get
- connected to someone dialing the`
- Credit Op! They think you are He/She!
- Then all sorts of fun and games can
- happen!!!
- ---------------------------------------
- How To Find Diverters: Method Three-
- ---------------------------------------
- Need-
- A Phone
- Yellow Pages
- good "social engineering" skills.
- (In other words, be a good BS
- atrist...)
- Your Local ANI number
-
- Look up "Telephone ANswering Service"
- in the phone book. make up a name.
- Tell them you are thinking about
- buying a call diverter. BS them
- that you want "referenced of
- people/companies that use your
- services call diverters" and get
- phone numbers. Those numbers could be
- and often are diverters!!! If not,
- look up the company up in the phone
- book. that should be the diverter.
- be sure to check it with ANI..
- Somethins interestion I have found is
- that the numbers to some TAS(Telephone
- Answering Service) companies are
- diverters.Then youre double Lucky!
- Some companies refuse to give out
- info for "security reasons". Offer
- to give them your phone number if
- they will call you back immediately
- (you have to leave soon, say that)
- and give them the ring side of a loop.
- Isnt this fun?!?!
- (Thanks to Cris J. for this method)
- --------------------------------------
- As you can see, diverters have many
- uses. Find them, use them, trade them,
- abuse them, post them. DIverters
- often never last longer than 2 and a
- half months since thats as long as it
- usually takes for them to figure out
- what is happening, and get a secure
- diverter.
