The belief is usually that we use these super hacking skills to get into these databases, and then we d/l all of the info that we can. This is partially true. Most elite hackers do get their info from major company and government databases. The part that is usually false is the part about us using super hacking skills to get into the databases. We usually get our info, or access to the databases by a method known to many as "social engineering". ------------------------------------------------------------------ SOCIAL ENGINEERING is basicly just hustling somebody out of info. There are many different methods for social engineering and I have used all of them! They really aren't that hard to use...all you need are some confidence and a little practice! The old hackers used to get all of their information through methods of dumpster diving and social engineering. Dumpster diving is the act of digging through a company's trash bin to get documents that have been trashed. Kevin Mitnick is very famous for his social engineering skills. Kevin Poulsen used to break into Pacific Bell buildings with Justin Peterson (Agent Steal) to learn about the phone system. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Like I said before, there are many different ways to social engineer. You can social engineer companies out of private info, teachers out of answers, or even girls out of pussy (Like Justin Peterson). I try to social engineer everywhere that I can. After awhile, social engineering just becomes a normal daily routine. The key things that will determine if you do a good job or not are confidence and research. You have to be confident so that you can actually play out the role that you are trying to be. You need to research your target as well so that you know what will work on them. Remember, I cannot possibly list all of the things you could use to social engineer people. I will give you an overview of how to social engineer different people. You have to come up with your own special techniques if you want to be truly successful! ------------------------------------------------------------------ THE COMPANY: Research your company! Go to their web-page and do a WHOIS on their web-pages. Learn who is in control of different things. You should call the company many different times with legit questions. Use these questions to learn the names of different people in the company and to learn how they operate. Try to ask them who is in charge of different areas and write down this info! If you got the name of a person in charge of Ameritech of a certain city, then you could call an Ameritech in a different city and say that's who you are. When they do a database check, the info on their screen will be the same that you're giving them! Also, if the company is local, tell them that you're in Economy in High School or College (depending on how old you are) and you have a job shadowing project. Ask them if you can job shadow their company. You might actually be able to get an inside look at the company and get some logons! You can actually social engineer through e-mail, but it's best if done over the phone. Call a company and ask for the fax-back system number. If they have that system set up and you get the number, you can fax all of their documents and shit to the fax machine of your choice! Like I said, there are many different ways to social engineer a company. Use this as a guide for your research. If you have any kick-ass social engineering experiments, e-mail them to me at rat@soldierx.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------ THE PERSON: Find out information about this person and discover their likes and dislikes. Always be as kind as you can to the person and always try to agree with them if possible. Once you earn their trust, you can basicly social engineer them out of everything. Steal other people's work if you have to and change it so that it looks like your own. Make sure that it's one of their likes and show it to them. They will be amazed and think of you as a better person that what you are. If you are trying to get answers out of a teacher, act like you really love the subject and always show up for class on time. Try to talk to the teacher about things they like, and act like you like the same things. If possible, try to get their e-mail address and try to talk to them outside of school. Once their trust is earned, you can always say that you need to check your work! Just have a bunch of BS written down, and most teachers that like you will let you see the answer book. LoL. ------------------------------------------------------------------ THE GIRL: All guys need pussy...some want love. Anyways, if you're trying to get a girl that is stuck up and thinks she's better than everybody - be nice to her but not too nice. Treat her just like she's a normal person. Don't waste money on her at first. Just treat her normal and talk to her a lot. Get her to hang out with you and try to make yourself look like some god-like person. Always flash money if you can so that she thinks you have a lot of it. When you get a chance, just kiss her. She won't be used to that sort of thing and will probably kiss you back. You just one the girl. I recommend trying to find girls that have AOL or some kind of internet messaging service. Talk to them over that and constantly hustle them by getting cheap lines off of love web-pages. You can send them poetry and act like it's your own. There are so many different types of girls that it's hard to try to tell you how to social engineer all of them. Just try to find out how they are and use that against them! ------------------------------------------------------------------ CONCLUSION: SOCIAL ENGINEERING IS ABOUT APPEARING TO BE SOMETHING YOU'RE NOT. APPEAR TO BE AS GOD-LIKE AS POSSIBLE TO PEOPLE SO THAT THEY WILL TRUST AND ALMOST WORSHIP YOU. CONVINCE BUSINESSES THAT YOU ARE PART OF THEIR COMPANY WHEN YOU'RE NOT. BE STEALTH AND OMNIPRESENT AT THE SAME TIME. THESE ARE THE WAY OF THE NINJA AND THE WORDS OF RAT. PEACE. ------------------------------------------------------------------ _____________________________________________________________________ §=------------------------------]-§-[------------------------------=§ \\ THIS FILE WAS A SOLDIERX PRODUCTION // \\ http://www.soldierx.com // \\ NOBODY CAN STOP INFORMATION INSEMINATION // §=+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=§
