How to get an 800 # for a local BBS

By:  Turbanator

Ok first go to the drug store and open up a magazine
from the magazine rack.  Pull out a subscription card
and keep it for the address listed for the magazine
company.  Now get the number of the local AT&T
or Verizon office in your area and note it down.

Now go to your handy-dandy yellow pages and pick
out a technical type business, one not to small, and not
as big as Micro$oft.  Write down the name of the company.

Next go to a payphone or op divert to spoof your ANI,
and dial 1-800-222-0400.  When you call up tell the nice
op that you want to get an 800 number, and save time
by telling them that you want the 'Readyline Service'.
When they ask you for your name, just make up one,
or use one of the person you hate most. When asked for
the name of the company, give them the name of the
place you pulled out of the phonebook.When asked for
the billing address, give them the P.O. BOX of the address
of the company on the card u pulled from the magazine.
When they ask about a service address, give em the address
of your local AT&T or Verizon office.They'll ask for the
number you want it to route to, that would obviously
be the BBS #.  For you contact number, just give em
one that doesnt answer, or is constantly busy.

If they ask for credit info, just make up the companys
name and the presidents name.  When asked when
started, say anything after 1980, since most somewhat newer
companys are likely to set up an 800 #.  If they ask for
annual sales, just say something about $160,000.

Once all that is complete as to have the number assigned
while your on the phone, and say you need the line ASAP.
Not too long from then it should be up an routing the selected
BBS #.  This also works for dial-up access numbers, and even
normal phone numbers.  Doing all this will ensure that you
get an 800 number you want, while having the monopoly
companys, AT&T and/or Verizon, paying for the number.
