People in foreign countries will soon be able to have the benefits of our |
famous 800 (toll free) numbers. In place of the 800 number, foreign callers |
will dial 196. This will be followed by a unique prefix and the line number |
from the company's domestic 800 service. |
It would work like this: 196-NXX-XXXX. AT&T will bill and record all these |
calls. This will give our overseas (and maybe Canada too) friends the |
opportunity to take advantage of the US toll network. |

The Prophet, formally of the PhoneLine Phantoms, was recently contacted by |
authorities for as yet unknown reasons. He has had his computer equipment |
confiscated, but as of this writing he has not been formally charged. And to |
clear up the rumor, I did not have anything to do with it. |

Some notes about Night Stalker's bust here, I haven't really talked much to him |
because his phone line is bugged, I could tell that much from all of the clicks |
that I heard after he had hung up while I was still on the line. |
Some of the reasons that he may have been busted were that credit Card numbers |
were frequently posted on The Underground and two months ago a member of the |
Underground called the White House with a bomb threat and was later visited by |
the U.S. Secret Service. They knew this person had used illegal extenders and |
codes to make the call. They inquired to where he obtained them and he told |
them all about The Underground. |
He is currently under surveillance, the Secret Service thinks he is |
transferring funds and have been following him and taking pictures, especially |
when he visited his bank. That's about all I know...end of the investigation. |

In the last week of July, Cyclone II mistakenly was playing with a local VAX |
and became a bit careless with his methods. He was caught. You may have |
noticed that he hasn't been calling around for quite awhile. He won't be until |
this mess is cleared up, which should be in the near future. |
His computer was confiscated, as well as all of his files, papers, notes, and |
anything else the authorities could find that was illegal. He is laying low |
and would prefer not to receive too many calls. |

For those of us that subscribe to Home Box Office (HBO), did any of you see the |
HBO movie, Apology? Well the movie was based on fact and being that Apology |
can be accessed from a phone line I feel that it could be considered as |
possibly having something to do with phreaking. This Apology differs a little |
from the movie, because with this one you can hear other people's Apology's as |
well including the statements made from two phreaks in the Southern Bell area. |
These two phone phreaks/hackers/credit carders/anarchists as they described |
themselves apologized for all sorts of crimes including $200,000 phone bills to |
their phone company, bomb threats to their school, and prank calls to Hong |
Kong, Egypt, and London. One of the phreaks identified themselves as "The |
Cop." Just thought you might be interested to know about it...-KL |
