Probably never heard them, have you?
Social engineernig has alot to do with security. I picked up the phone and dialed a random number. As my Mom walked in, she heard me, the AT&T Operator telling the man that he would hear a series of tones and a beep and then his call would be transferred...The one he had just givenm a credit card number for.
I played a silver box tone and hung up. I didn't write any of the numbers down or anything like that. Even though I'm broke and could'v easily gotten something out of this. I didn't. It's all in the challenge of doing it.
Social engineering is a very important style of getting what you want. I'v bullshitted my way in and out of so many things you'd need to flush just to talk to me.
Another good one was a few months ago. My familly was over and some drunk ******* called my aunt and said he was going to beat her ass. He had a wrong number but it pissed me off.
I grabbed the phone and called back. The dialog went like this:
Me: Hello sir this is John Biktol here at AT&T, and we have you listed as having some problems with your phone.
Me: Have you been having any troubles at all sir?
Drunk *******: Yea, you ****ers need to fix this.
Me talking to my Mom: Mam, I'm on the line with the other customer right now could you please turn down your stereo system? Thank you Mam.
Me: Sir, you have a computer don't you?
Drunk *******: Yes, how do you know?
Me: Well sir, some computers have been making the lines static filled and hard to use. But we can fix it right now. Are you by the computer? You are? Good.
At this point, my Mom and the rest of my familly are looking in amazement.
Drunk *******: Ok it's booted up.
Me: Ok sir, I need you to click on start, and tell me what version of Windows you have ok?
Drunk *******: Windows 98.
Me: Ok sir, in the start menu, go to programs and click on MS-DOS Prompt ok?
Drunk *******: Em Ess DAWS?
Me: Yes.
Drunk *******: Ok, it's a black Window.
Me: Yes, type in the following: */me gives command to format entire HD without asking yes or no*
Drunk *******: It says it's deleting everything, what's that mean?
Me: It says it's deleting everything? And what's that mean? THAT MEANS YOU LEARNED NOT TO ****ING DISRESPECT MY HOUSE YOU ****IN' *****. *Click*
I hung up and my whole family had their jaws dropped. they were like, HOLY ****, I'm NEVER pissing YOU off.
