phones that have a call-back number. Since money has always been in scarce supply, I can simply call someone such as my mother from a pay phone without using a quarter. All I do is to call collect and when she answers, I just say the pay phone number instead of my name when prompted. Then she refuses the call and calls me back locally. This way neither of us are billed for the call. |
By DSM on Saturday, December 6, 1997 - 08:37 pm: |
This does not usually work well, as the collect calling companies are now using operators to manually make calls with strange names, and they give you a very short time to say your name. |

I called the pay phone number of a college dorm to talk to girls. Occasionly I'd tease them by breathing heavy. I didnt use any obscene language. A girl named Brooke began talking to me almost nightly. One night she talked to me for almost 2 hours. A male voice suddenly came on the phone saying that they were the police department,and they were tracing the calls. I got scared and hung up but it was already too late. About a half hour later there was a knock on my door, It was a city police officer. He was accompanied by a campus police officer and they told me that the campus had filed a complaint with the telephone company. They said that the university had agreed not to press any charges but said I should consider this an official warning. They told me the potential penalties for telephone misuse,up to 3 years in prison and a $5000 fine. So before you call pay phones,be aware of the possible legal difficulties you may get into. |

I get such a thrill out of a ringing pay phone because that means I can get really crazy. Last week for instance. I was walking down a street where there is massive construction going on. As a result this phone rings a good bit with wives,girlfriends calling the construction workers. As I was walking past,the phone rang. I quickly picked it up and said hello. The woman on the other end asked for Mike. I told her that Mike got arrested about 5 minutes ago and they were taking him to the precinct. "Who is this? she shrieked. I told her I'm a police officer and that she better get Mike a lawyer. "What is he charged with?" she said "Rape" I replied. That's impossible! she said. Mike has been impotent for months. "Well he sure wasn't impotent when he raped that girl! I told her. "Who did he rape?" she asked. I told her that Mike has been hanging around on a college campus and has been stalking the girls. He's been charged with raping one of them. Well.I'm calling the police right now to verify this. I'm not sure I believe the entire story" I quickly hung up before the cops could find the phone where I was. If they had caught me,I suppose I could have been charged with Impersonating a Police Officer. |

After they call their voice mail pick up the phone they used and press redial and record the tones. Then call your pager and play the tones into the phone. You will be paged their voice mail number followed by the proper tones for access codes. Or, if they used a cordless...take the cordless to another phone....dial your pager on that phone and press redial on the cordless when it is time to enter the number to page yourself. Use this info to protect yourself as well. |

I have been trying (unsucessfully) to gain access to a number of dial-up numbers in Japan. I got the numbers from, well, that's not important. What IS important is that I can connect at different speeds on different dialup numbers, but I cannot get any further than the *login prompt or this new prompt which I have NO IDEA what system it is for. That is... HOST NAME? I tried everything I could think of, but the only thing that does anything is help and then I get a bunch of commands that don't help me. If anyone can help me by pointing out was OS the above is, or by trying to access these numbers themselves and then giving me a tip, I would LOVE you to death. 81-52-222-2911 2400bps 81-52-232-4540 14.4Kbps 81-52-223-3636 28.8Kbps 81-52-249-3626 (weird sound followed by 33.6Kbps connection) There are more, but let me know if you want them. |

when you call it it it will give you a few different code #'s and the last set will be the phone # ........enjoy |
anonymous caller blocks on caller id boxes. Did you ever try to call someone that has caller id and you have your phone number blocked from showing up on caller id boxes, and the only way to call them is to press *86 before you call(which disables your block and allows your # to be visible on the caller id box). Here is a extremley simple solution just call your operator and tell them you are having trouble connecting to the number, give them the number and the operator will dial it for you and it will put you right through, bypassing the anonymous caller blocking, and your number never gets revealed to the party you are contacting because the operator placed the call and not you. If anyone comes up with a better or different way to do this please let me know, this is the easiest solution I came up with. |
Despite this we still like phoning free phone numbers from our local phone box. |
AND HAS A HIGH VOLUME OF TRAFFIC PASSING IT EACH DAY. CALL, AND TALK, TALK, TAL... |

we got dime store cell phones that'll put your claptrap change stealers into the antique stores. |

The payphone looks so forlorn on the corner--honestly, we match, both stuck somewhere we hate, but...only one of us left and then came back. Anyway, it boldly states that its number is 707.964.9599. If anyone cares. |
