________________________________ | | | Making Your Phone | | Into a Cheesebox | | | | Written by Otho Radix | |________________________________| A Cheesebox (named for the type of box the first one was found in) is a type of box which will, in effect, make your telephone a Pay-Phone. This is a simple, modernized, and easy way of doing it. Inside Info: These were first used by bookies many years ago as a way of making calls to people without being called by the cops or having their numbers traced and/or tapped. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How To Make A Modern Cheese Box You will need: 1 Call Forwarding service on the line 1 Set of Red Box Tones The number to your prefix's Intercept operator(do some scanning for this one) How To: ------- After you find the number to the intercept operator in your prefix, use your call-forwarding and forward all calls to her. This will make your phone stay off the hook (actually it now waits for a quarter to be dropped in). You now have a cheese box. In Order To Call Out On This Line: You must use your Red Box tones and gener- ate the quarter dropping in. Then you can make phone calls to people. As far as I know, this is fairly safe, and they do not check much. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This file was downloaded from the Holovision Network: Node BBS Name Sysop BBS Number Baud Rate BBS Software ---- ---------------- ---------------- -------------- --------- ------------ 1 Slaughterhouse 5 Otho Radix [203] 274-1395 1200/2400 PCBoard 2 Clash City Renegade Chemist [203] 929-6577 3/12/2400 Forum 3 Periscope Magic Fingers [203] 261-3542 300/1200 Forum 4 High Tech Theft Reek Havoc [203] 274-2376 1200/2400 PCBoard 5 Land of the Lost The Gladiator [301] ***-**** 300/1200 WWIV ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
