You will know when you have an answerphone because it will have a shit message like "Hi, this is Mike Hunt, unfortunately i can get to the phone at the moment or i'm out of the office, please leave your name, phone number and message after the tone, thank you!" You will then get a beep. I have noticed that you can tell the difference between voice mail systems and answerphones just by listening to the beep. Voice mail systems have short beeps, while answerphones have much longer beeps. I nearly always know if i have a Meridian Mail, AUDIX or an answerphone just from the beep. Answerphones are cool because most of them these days have remote access which means you can ring your own answerphone from anywhere, punch in a simple passcode and listen to any messages you have. Hmm useful, i hear you say but to the phreak it is useful. If the owner of the phone can check it remotely, so can the phreak. All you have to do is guess the simple code and you can listen to all of their messages, delete messages, turn the machine off and even change the out going message. I didn't take any notice of answerphones in my earlier phreak days, i thought that they were boring, i started to get interested in them after i read one of Hybrid's many excellent scans. After a long time i realised what the 'p=12' was next to answerphone on his scan. I started to get into the answerphones that Hybrid had hacked and thought it was cool, once in i couldn't do much, i pressed some buttons and made it beep. I soon got bored of that and started to ignore them again. But the other day something happened that made me take a lot more notice of them. Hacking Answerphones +---------------------+ Hacking into an answerphone really is very easy, you have to enter a code before or after the beep. It's best to start guessing before the beep because if it's not a reomte access machine, or you don't guess the code, they will have a nice message full of beeps. So when you hear the message, start punching in 1234567890 and then 112233445566778 89900. Usually somewhen during your guesses you will hear the machine beep again, maybe twice, this means your in. If you have tried the above and still can't get in, then you've either trying to hack an machine that doesn't have remote access or it's a tougher code. Try brute forcing it, when the message starts punch in as many numbers as possible in a random order, if you do this enough then you should break the code. A final tip, when your guessing the code and pressing all of these numbers don't do it too quickly or you'll get in and won't hear the beep. See the section titled 'My Answerphone Hacking Experiance' for more on this. =) Common Commands +---------------+ Once you are in a machine, the common commands are as follows. 1. Menu 2. Play new messages 3. Turn machine ON/OFF 4. Play previous messages 5. Play all 6. Skip message 7. Repeat message 8. Play out-going greeting (OGM) 9. Record NEW OGM, 9-stop recording. 0. Erase message Uses +----+ Hacking into answerphones has many cool and useful uses. Listed below are just some of them. * Listen to all of their messages * Hack into a business answerphone and listen out for credit card #'s * Hack into your enemies, friend's, bird's, local dealer's answerphone and replace the out-going message with a more humorous one * Turn the machine off so they miss all of those important calls * If you wanna be nasty then delete any important messages * Change the out-going message to "Hi, this is Daniel! I'm feeling just super today! If you want any of our sex aids, hand cuffs, edible underwear, pornographic magazines or videos or our newest release 'A How-To Guide On Using Your Finger' which is for him and her and includes an informative video and book, please leave your name, number and credit card details after the beep, thank you, sweetie!" * Change the out-going message to "Hello, this is ABC Company, after office hours we accept all 3rd party billing requests, thanks for calling, if you want to leave a message, please do so after the beep" * Change the out-going message to "Cough, cough, cough, hi, you have reached Jason's Happy House of Hard Drugs, please leave your order and method of payment after the..umm..beep thing. Bye" * Change the out-going message to "Your call has been intercepted by the FBI, FREEZE MUTHA FUCKA!!!" * Change the out-going message to "This is a BT announcment, you are not being charged for this call, a monologue has now been placed on your line, we will be monitoring all future calls from this phone, thank you for using BT" My Answerphone Hacking Experiance +---------------------------------+ The following are two cool examples of the fun i have hacking into answerphones... I hacked into an answering machine of a big company and i had fun listening to all their messages (actually a couple of girls were prank calling it) I phoned up again the day after, in the hope of hearing more messages but instead i could hear what was happening inside the room! I could hear these women talking, i listened for about 2 mins, but to keep listening i had to keep pressing the play command which must have made it beep at their end coz one women got closer and louder and another said "Just turn it off" then i heard a beep and the line was dead! But it was no fluke, i can do it everytime!! I can listen until they get fed up with the beeping and turn it off. Another cool thing happened the same day i was trying to hack into another answering machine and i must have got the pin without noticing coz it said "Outgoing message, start recording..beep" i realised what i had done and then calmly said in a sexy voice "Hi you've reached Big Boy Bob's House of Gay Pleasure, if you want any of our sex toys or gay prostitutes please leave your name, phone number, willy size and anything else after the beep, thank you...BEEP!" i pressed 9 to stop recording and hung up. i waited a couple of minutes then rang it up to see if it had worked and sure enough, my message came on instead of their boring one. It was the first time i had changed someones OGM and i was well chuffed, i had read about it in text files, but didn't really beleive i could do it, i guess i proved myself wrong.
