Introduction://Well whats every phreaks dream? Free payphone calls! But gettingfree payphone calls isn’t that easy or that stealthy. I will go throughthe ways to get around them but be warned this can get you jail time andor a big ass fine. Also this is for people who have certain boxes made.I don’t tell you how to make any of these boxes in this tutorial.
Types of Payphones://There are 2 types, COCOTS and Mah Bell phones. COCOTS are owned bylocal business owners and aren’t run by the phone company. Bell/Verizonphones are… They are easy to tell the difference because Mah Bell phoneswill have the word “Bell” or “Verizon”. Holly shit that was hard!
Boxes You’ll Need://Hehe the boxes. Ok well contrary to what most people believe, redboxesstill work today… omg yes they do! Heh, but only on certain types of phones.You’ll need a beige box too.
Tools You’ll Need://Welp, you’ll just need the usual tools and a new addition. Ya needWire Cutters, Wire Skinner, screw driver, and a Hacksaw (These come inpocket knives so I suggest you get one bish)
Methods of Payphone Exploitation://Here we go; I will break this up into two categoriesMahBell and COCOTs.
-COCOT-Ok well here is were im not too experienced, so I’ll go from whatI told still works, if it doesn’t then oh fuck I’m so sorry ;). COCOTSare payphones set up by the simple people. They run off of regular phonewires and 90% of the time the wires don’t run underground…. So hey guesswhat… if it’s a regular phone wire… then we can beige box it right? RIGHT!So there are 2 ways of doing this. The obvious and the not so obvious. Theobvious is to cut the wire that runs from the handset to the actual phoneand clip in your beige box,, the not so obvious is to follow the wires thatrun down the payphone up to the wall of the building, you should see a littlemedal box that you can unscrew, you can expose the wires here and clip in.Another way of doing this is to use a redbox. But redboxes don’t work on aCOCOT without having to socially engineer the operator. So here’s what yado; call “0” and tell the operator that someone put gum all over the keysand you need her to place a call for you. When she asks for money play thetones on your redbox, it works beautifully were I live, peoplein Mississippi don’t know shit ;).
-Mah Bell-Mah bell phones? EASY SHIT! These can be redboxed!!! Atleast theycan were I live. Go find a tutorial on how to make a redbox somewere anduse it! If the phones have some type of protection against them, use theoperator trick I told you about earlier.
Other Ideas://I had some ideas for COCOTS. What if you set up a modified portablephone at a COCOT… so you could pick up your handset and fuck around withthe person?! Wouldn’t that be great!? You’d get calling card numbers andyou could harass people!. I was inspired from a story on www.phonelosers.org.Hah well yeah ok that’s my 2 cents.
Greets://I don’t love anyone
