hey i was wondering if anyone knew any goot techniques for SEing a phone number from someone else without them knowing i am the one trying to get the info.
Stuff i know:
Trying to get it from their friend
whitepages.com search for last name
my friend doing the se for me with me pulling strings
but any other ideas? im open for all suggestions that have worked 4 u
thanks
I'd check with alt.2600 that is more their cup of tea.
OK I give in, what the hell is "SEing" when it is at home? :confused:
Social Engineering?........................try your local Police, FBI, IRS, CIA, BNDD, BATF (watch them!..remember Waco :eek: ) They all have access to that sort of information.
Go and work for your local Telco, or bribe an employee thereof.
Intercept the US mail and steam open their phone bill.
OH, and mind you don't drop the soap :D
ACK phttt! at least it makes a change from "how do I hack my girlfriend's Hotmail account"
One common practice by many people is to say their own phone number when they answer the phone - Hello 555-6891 for example.
All you would need to do is call them and there is a good chance you can get the number.
This has worked for me on many occasions.
HTH

Errrrrrrrrrrr Steve old chap.................
If you called them there is an even better chance that you already have the number :DQuote:

Time for another coffee mate?

LMFAO @ nihil and steve. I cant believe I didnt catch that untill I read nihil's post. Or was that an effort at so called british humor? :) J/k guys
On the subject at hand if you want to get a phone number ask the person who's phone number it is for it. Why do I get the odd feeling that the original poster is trying to get a girls number? As far as SEing (Im assuming SE==Social Engineering) just ask in a way that makes the other party think its thier idea to give you the information. If you cant do that not even mitnick can help you
Does no one recognise superior wit these days....Quote:
<sigh>
I was expecting the original poster to have replied this way, but not you my boy!
If I'd added the ob smilie then a good part of effect would have been lost....
Here was the clue:
Seems it was lost anyway!Quote:

That's two AO-inspired Spit-Takes in one week! Steve, I need one as well. You find a table, I'll buy!Quote:

Be honest, tell her how you feel and hope she gives you her number. A single white rose helps too..."Don't get red, it doesn't look right in this occasion".
Now, if you really want to be a sleazy bastard :D, come up with a really nice "SPECIAL SALE/OFFER" to one of her favorite stores. I.E. "FIRST 100 CUSTOMERS TO CALL RECEIVE A FREE GIFT. MUST CALL NOW TO RESERVE YOURS". Purchase a prepaid phone (some come with free 1-800 numbers), print out a nice looking "Sale AD" and drop it in her mailbox. Make sure it has her name on it. You might have to visit the store's website and get some logos and pics to make it look legit ;).
Peace.
umm its not actually a girl im not that messed up... i would just ask her after i get to know her
its actually for some guy who did some bad stuff to me... and i ll leave it at that
but i did get your joke man it was pretty obvious but a good one lol
and ideas on getting someones number with minimal information on the internet?
ps. i have tried calling his parents but they were cautious of giving out their 14 yr old sons home number
1. a 14 year olds phone number wont be on the internet under his name.
2. Why are you picking on some 14 year old?
3. LMFAO you called his parents? maybe its the same number ;)
4. wow I cant believe im responding to this garbage...
What 14 year old doesnt live with their parents? But most 14 year olds dont have their own number so you would have no know who he is living with. "bad stuff" lmao.
Back to my first reply...you're probably asking this in the wrong place. Not the wrong discussion, the wrong forum. The wrong site. The wrong crowd.
Why dont u call his parents and act like your from the hpone company, dunno what ur local copany is like AMeritech (international?) and be like, We're calling from jada jada, we are updating our phone information database, we need to confirm all the phone numbers listed under this household/address/last name," or something like that ??
14 year old ? why do you need his phone number if you're gonna beat him up ? And you can do more damage if you get his screen name ;)
In the UK, the ones attending Borstal or an "Approved School"...................those are our "pre-Bubba training centres, for potentially valuable contributors to society" :pQuote:
What 14 year old doesnt live with their parents?
Those attending $25,000+ a year private schools (Eaton, Harrow, Girton, Cheltenham Ladies College) They live-in during term time.
Once again, in the UK they do, they have cell phones, that seem to be permanently attached to their hands as if by surgical implant.Quote:
But most 14 year olds dont have their own number
Why is it a little voice in my head keeps whispering "SMS bombing"? Don't do it kid, it is very lame...........try Ralgex in the jockstrap :eek:
Might I just say that no matter how justified you feel, the "powers that be" will not tolerate messing with public communications systems. You will most likely shoot yourself in the foot. Also, if this guy is a bad sort, as you imply, they will have been gotten at already this way, so they will have taken defensive countermeasures.
My advice is to "think outside the box" and find something more original.
Just my opinion
Not from internet corsair1447 but i guess social engineering may work.
Try to find out what company's services he uses
Now find out if that company provide some kinda directory service to its users in my case it does so all i have to do is to put is
FIRST NAME =DAVID
LAST NAME =BECKHAM
And i get phone numbers of all david beckham's if it is a user of this perticular mobile comapny.
Or if you know where he/she works/study you can also get a lot of information from there.
In my school for example they keep every students record including address and phone number in a database and every student has a library code corresponding to three enrollment number
if i know some ones library code (which is pretty easy to figure out) i can get all information about them including which books they have reserved and so on.
Hope this helps.
Sorry, I’m a little behind on this one. Just got off work ... full moon out there!
LMFAO ... I really needed that, thanks!Quote:

Yeah, I don't think I'd give out my 14 year-old son's phone number to some 24 year-old guy I've never heard of before either.
If he really did some bad stuff to you, just call the cops. Unless you really think prank-calling some kid is going to solve your problems...
Point being: Leave the kid alone. Act your age. Be responsible.
C'mon................the 8 and 9 are close on the top row and keypad......................a real 24 year old would not ask that sort of question...............this is another 14 year old...........trust me ;) just look at the grammar and syntax?Quote:

He is probably jerking off right now :p
Either he is taking the mick, or he made a mistake.............your call................my personal view is that he has obviously got nothing to contribute as a member....................shoot to kill?
:)
ok everyone nevermind and yes i am 14 it doesnt seem very realistic to be a 24 yr old investigating a 14 yr old like another 14 yr old....
but i have good sources at school and was able to deduce all his info with no need for drastic measures.... maybe i have a future career oppertunity as a CIA spook......
thanks for your harmless bantering tho it cheers me up lol
Not with the time it took you to get someones phone number and asking people how to it online..Quote:

CIA = Secret, you're on your own there....:)
no actually the time it took is cause i have other stuff to do like study etc
I was just being sacrastic.
That's ok, he was just being a smart mouthed wannabe.Quote:
yah ok
meta-search.com if that doenst work, google is.
