*SWAT MAGAZINE ISSUE ELEVEN: NOVEMBER 1998* ********************************************************************** | .How to rip off Richard Branson. | | By Onion | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- First, get your hands on one of those Virgin Cola Calling cards. Mine expires at the end of this year, but hopefully there will be more up-to-date ones. Mine came free with a Big Issue. Ask those nice ppl at Virgin Records, they usually have 'em. This system is so open to exploitation, it is unreal. U call 0800 376 0777, give them the pin on the back of the card, then when some guy starts talking bollox, hit # to skip that. U should get a dialtone... These cards start with only 3 mins of calling time. Luckily, u can buy more time. Call 0800 376 0771 and tell them u want to recharge your card. They want a credit card no. here... ALWAYS use the same docs, card no., name, postcode, accent etc. each time u recharge the card. There are only 2 operators for the whole system, and if u use a different card no. or anything they will tell u to piss off. Where the system gets REALLY fucked is when u discover that they charge this thing by TIME. Premium rate numbers, International calls, local calls, they all get charged at the same rate. £5 from someone else's credit card will get u one hour of calling time. I use this for my net connection, amongst other things. This is a carding opportunity which is far too good to miss.... 3viL <>n!oN PS When using HyperTerminal or Terminal, dial the following: 14108003760777,,,XXXXXXXXX,,#,,,xxxxxxxxxxx Where XXXXXXXXX is the 9-digit PIN, and xxxxxxxxxxx is the fone number u want to call. That should give u pauses in all the right places...
