Disk-lamiah ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I (NeCRoS) or DaS TAKE ABSOLUTELY NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY ACTIONS TAKEN BY ANYONE AT THE INSTRUCTION OF THE TEXT HERIN. BY CONTINUING THE USE OF THIS MAGAZINE YOU ARE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS STATED ABOVE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE ERASE THIS FILE NOW. III. Intro ~~~~~~~~~~ Hey, we're back. A few things have happened since the last issue. First, T.E.K.A.T. is our new 908 HQ! TEKAT is a real kick-ass board, give 'em a ring. Also, due to technical Diffculties, I had to reformat my HD and couldn't recover the 2 DaS files I was working on. I had to push the release dates back. You should also pick up a Member app, included with this issue. It's not hard to get in and writing is fun! :). Next, I have an impotent announcement to make. DaS will now be publishing a quarterly Literary magazine. This will have just about anything donated, BUT I WILL NOT RIP ANYTHING OFF. If you wanna contribute call the WHQ (number at the end of this file) and leave Mad Arab (#1) mail. He'll accept your UL and it will be put into the mag. I'm pushing for April 1st as the release date. III. The Beginnings Of The Scam ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ First of all this scam will not net you any cash. BUT it will net you just about anything that can be ordered by the mail. Even though you could theoretically get anything, its best not to use this for anything over $500 dollars, for two reasons. One, if you're ever caught (chances are nil) using this to get a product costing over $500 dollars puts you into a new, more felonious crime catergory. Secondly, the company may become suspicious if they lose a whole $5000 computer through the mail and may investigate. But don't worry, if you stick to what I say, its impossible to get caught, and IT VERY MAY WELL BE LEGAL. YES, LEGAL! There is one important thing you will need though. You will need the money to buy the item in the first place. So don't order a $400 HD and only have $200 to pay for it. Steal it or take a loan for the money. Now, on with the scam. Find your self a Computer Shopper magazine or something of the like. Begin flipping through the ads. Aha! Here's a nice Seagate 212 MB Hd for $250! A good deal. But first go to the phone and call the company. Now ask them about their return policy on lost or damaged items. If they don't give you your money back ON LOST ITEMS, then just say thank you and hang up. Also, this is highly important. Ask them which service they use when mailing items. DO NOT ACCEPT FEDERAL EXPRESS. They have that software tracking thingy, and the company will hunt it down. You'll never get what you wanted. If they use Federal Express, ask if you can have it sent by US Postal Service. If you can't DON'T ORDER FROM THERE! Now ask them about their return policy on lost or damaged items. If they don't give you your money back ON LOST ITEMS, then just say thank you and hang up. On the other hand, if they do accept or replace lost or damaged items, then order your HD. It should go like this: SCENARIO 1: YOU: [Pick up phone and dial 1-800-SUCKERS] OPEATOR: Retard Company, How may I help you? YOU: Yes, I'd just like to know your policy on lost or damaged items. And I'd also like to know which service you use when mailing items. OPERATOR: Well, we can't replace lost items, but we will replace damaged items. We also use Federal Express. YOU: OK, thank you. [Hang Up] OPERATOR: YES! NOW I CAN FINISH MY NAILS IN PEACE! SCENARIO 2: YOU: [Pick up phone and dial 1-800-SUCKERS] OPEATOR: Retard Company, How may I help you? YOU: Yes, I'd just like to know your policy on lost or damaged items. Also, I'd like to know what company use to mail any packages. OPERATOR: Well sir, we replace any items lost through may or arrive damaged. We use Federal Express. YOU: Is there any way you could mail the items through the US Postal instead of Federal Express? OPERATOR: Yes, you can use the postal service of your choice. YOU: All right then, I'd like to order Part #08678341-A, A Seagate HD... OPERATOR: Blah, blah, blah. Just continue with the order. Its OK to give your house address and phone number to these people, chances of getting in trouble are close to nil. Still, if you're a bit paranoid, using your amazing carding skills and social engineering, just give a drop site and whatnot. IV. Now, wait until you recieve your item. Then wait about two weeks after that. Call up the customer service of the company. When the operator comes on tell her, politely, that you ordered a product over three weeks ago and it still hasn't come. Go through some other bullshit and the operator will (if you did the above) get a replacement for your lost part. When you receive your replacement part there is a few things you can do with it. For one, you could just keep it. If you do keep it you have gotten 2 for the price of 1. But, in some instances, you might not want 2 of the item you ordered. Well, now there are two things you can do. You can try and sell the item for a real cheap price. Using the above example of a 212 MB HD sold for $250 you could try and sell it for $150. This would net you a 212 MB HD for $100! The second thing you can do is detailed in the next section. SCENARIO: YOU: [Pick up phone and dial 1-800-SUCKERS] OPERATOR: Retard Company Customer Cervix , this is Tonya, how may I help you? YOU: Yes, I ordered a hard drive from your company over three weeks ago and it still hasn't arrived. OPERATOR: Well then I'll need the product conformation number to replace a lost object, blah, blah, blah. If you did everything right, you will recieve your replacement part through the mail soon. Don't forget to always be bright and cheery, always be polite, and unless under very special circumstances NEVER LOSE YOUR TEMPER! Also, if you feel they are on to you, DON'T HANG UP! There is a section on what to do if the heat is on. V. Getting all your money back ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well, if you don't want the second item you have ordered, and you wanted this item for free in the first place, this section is for you. First, when you recieve your item and you're wanting your money back you'll have to return it because it "arrived damaged". Well, once you have your item out, do something to break it. Using our HD, I just scratched the surface. Now, call customer service back up. Tell them you received a damaged item through the mail. Next, tell the operator you just want your money back. DON'T tell them it is a replacement of a lost item, unless specifically asked. You will go through all of the standard shit, and you will recieve your money later. Voila! You now have obtained the item of your choice, through the mail, COMPLETELY FREE! SCENARIO: YOU: [Pick up phone and dial 1-800-SUCKERS] OPERATOR: Retard Company Customer Cervix , this is Tonya, how may I help you? YOU: Yes, I ordered a hard drive from your company awile ago, and it appears to have arrived damaged. OPERATOR: What is the problem? YOU: Well, it can't read the hard drive and when I looked at it it seems to have a few scratches on it. OPERATOR: Blah, blah, blah..... Now you go through the standard procedure or returning an item. Make sure you know what DOS will display the problem as, because they will ask alot of questions on it. VI. Risks and Such ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As I said before, this may well be legal. BUT it could be classified as mail fraud. Now, the risk of being caught is exteremely low and you should not expect it. How are they to know? BUT, there is a risk of being screwed. The operator could, after a little checking, give you a call back. SCENARIO: PHONE: [Ring, Ring] YOU: Hello? OPERATOR: Mr.Hacker? This Tonya from the Retard Company. We were able to track down that lost item. Apparently, it was delivered to your house. YOU: Hmmm... That's odd... Lemme check my garage. [2 minutes later] Aha! Here it is. Its been sitting in my garage for all this time and I didn't even realize it. Thank you. There. That is how you get screwed so be very careful when choosing the company you are going to order from. But you really can't get caught doing this unless you make some incredibly stupid mistake. Some of those could be: þ Ordering a $6000 Pentium þ Pulling this trick on the same company 5 times in the same week. The above mentioned way is the easiest way to get out of this. Or you could say that your neighbor had just called and it was accidently delivered to his house. VII. The Second Skam ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is a second skam you could pull that would also net you any product for a lot less of the hassle of the above mentioned way, but the risk of being caught is considerably higher. First you will need to use my method described above. PAY VERY CAREFUL ATTENTION TO THE WAY YOU REPLACE A LOST ITEM. Then, depending on some very important factors you could just call up, duplicate the lost item shit and receive a replacement for an item that was never lost. There are some factors here that would make this VERY impractical. First off, they could use a very sophisticated checking system for lost items. Right there you are screwed. Or they could use an ordering conformation number, making it impossible to duplicate an order, because they are stored in a computer [You could try to hack into they're computer to get conformation numbers and whatnot, but that's a different article.] VIII. Conclusion ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well, Scam long and prosper! Hope ya use some of my suggestions for some very useful items. This could support you if you are at college, just by selling scammed items. Also, I'm planning a few more articles, here are some of the planned ones: Basic Beige Boxing, Effective Social Engineering, and a few Articles on The DMS family of CO's and how to use them to your advantage. Don't forget the apps to DaS are included in this article!
