Section 1: The Introduction
----------------------------
In the activity known as phreaking, VMBs (voice mail boxes) are one of
great treasured finds of tireless effort. Well thanks to modern
cellular technology, it doesn't have to take so much tireless effort.
Most modern cell phones have VMBs to take messages when the owner is
away or is too much of a lazy shit to pick up the phone like somebody
I know (*cough*Kyle*cough*). This makes for a seemingly endless bound
of VMBs available for us to explore. Well of course in this tutorial
we will be covering exactly that, methods that you can use to break
into these VMBs, to play big brother, take over, or just generally
mess around with. Enjoy...
Section 2: The Method
----------------------
Well our first step is of course to get to the VMB. To do this we are
going to call up the number of our target, and let it ring. This works
best if you call at a time when the cell phone is off, so if you know
your target try to figure out when the most likely time would be that
they would have their cell phone off and call then, or else just call
in the middle of the night and hope they aren't an insomniac. Then
when the message starts playing hit either # or *. You will then hear
it ask you to enter in your password. Your first try should be to
punch in the last four digits of the cell phone number. If this doesn't
work then here is a decent list of common passwords for you to try
out...
6969
0420
1234
4321
1223
9876
1111
1010
3060
If you don't screw around with anything and just use it to listen in
on saved messages, then you should be able to hold access for months.
Otherwise, if you decide to use the "Change Password" option and take
it over, then you probably won't be holding it for long. So yeah, I
advise against doing that. Also a helpful hint is that though most
service providers use 4 digit passwords for VMBs, some providers may
require subscribers to have passwords of at least 6 digits. If this is
the case, first try the cell phone number you are dialing as the pass.
If this doesn't work, you can try one of the following common
passwords...
111111
222222
333333
444444
555555
666666
777777
888888
999999
123456
654321
696969
101010
121212
If none of these work then try a variation of any of the schemes listed
above, or try something like the subscriber's birthday, first name,
last name, home phone number, etc. Just use your imagination.
Section 3: In Conclusion
-------------------------
Well as always I hope you enjoyed reading this tutorial as much as I
enjoyed writing it. Life has been keeping me too busy lately to really
do much else, but be sure to check in at informationleak.com to see
my latest work. Until next time...
