School Year Money

Guide by: scuzzy-elo 2003

Introduction

First off this is not a guide on how to destroy your school and raise your tuition, this is a file on making some money through scamming your fellow students.

You see people talk about your student body as being an army against the nation. Students united to make a stand against the fascist faculty. Well in reality, that’s about as truthful as a conversation with the W.E.P. You need to realize that the only people you need to trust are your close friends and a few other allies. The rest probably don’t care about you and they are the ones you need to make money off and take advantage of.

There are several ways to get your way with a large body of people. The ones I will cover are things like ripping of underclassmen, selling items of use to all students, scamming students to get you things, opportunities for getting things on your own in school, and things like that.

Preparation

There are a few things you will need to acquire in order to do some of the things I’m going to discuss. You will need most or all of the following:

Microsoft Word

Experience with making templates

Ruler

Assorted papers

Printer

Scanner

Locker Combinations and Locker Numbers (from students in your grade from their lockers the past year)

Coupons

Tardy Slips

Doctors slips

Hall Passes

Teachers Notes

Various Workbooks, with answers, for different grades

Secretaries signatures

Teachers signatures

“Parents” signatures

Lock Picks

Tension Wrenches

Textbooks

Test answers from previous years saved tests

Study guides

Procedures

If You haven’t figured out what to do with most of the things listed then this is the section for you where I explain them.

Counterfeiting – Tardy Slips

To acquire the tardy slips from your office, go in when there is likely to be no one around and swipe them from the desk. I suggest you monitor their position beforehand to make this action faster. Now that you have a big stack of them, take them home and begin making a template for them on your computer using Microsoft Word. To do this, measure every aspect of the slips. Measure every row, column, and all text. Now, enter the values into Word and make the template and save it. Now inspect the original paper that it was printed on and go buy a good supply of it. Line up the templates and print them out onto the paper. Cut them out to size and sell them all, including the originals, to other students for $2-$6.00 dollars each depending on the time of the year. Around a test you would obviously up the price to $6.00. Make sure that everyone knows that the lowest you go is $2.00 so you can offer a deal of $1.00 to certain stubborn students.

Notes

When cutting out the slips, make sure you measure the margins so that they are exact when cutting between two slips.

Also, if the original slips are ripped from a booklet, make one side look perforated to make them look more authentic. Take any measures you see fit to make these look original.

If you need to, scan the original to have a scale image next to your template before wasting time, paper, and ink printing defective slips.

Counterfeiting – Coupons



First you need to acquire some coupons. You can do this one of two ways: find them (online, stores, etc.) or create new ones.

When you’re looking for coupons the best places to get them from would be stores in shopping malls, restaurants, fast food restaurants, online, dumpster diving, trash cans, other people, etc. When you get a big lot of them, first note the usage restrictions. If it expires soon and has a limit one per customer label then it’s really not worth copying. Next, note the paper it’s printed on and go buy it if you don’t have it already. Basically follow the directions for counterfeiting tardy slips and make large amounts of these coupons and sell them in packets to students.

When making coupons, don’t be too exotic in the item the coupon is for. Also, don’t make an expiration date for anytime soon, or any at all. Make a basic template and print them out on a selected type of paper.

Notes

To make them seem more authentic, add an expiration date and a limit to use. Also, be sure to note any text or icons on the back of the coupons, you will need to print that as well. Adding a back to a coupon you make up would also help in making them look authentic. Ask around to see what restaurants students go to most often. Also, look around the area for restaurants near by, these locations would be best for counterfeit coupons.

Counterfeiting – Doctors Slips, Hall Passes, Teachers Notes

Follow the basic instructions from above.

Notes

When collecting teachers notes, get them from as many different teachers as possible. Search their trash cans and desks to find the stacks of pre written notes for students to leave. Dumpster diving brings up large quantities of these.

Forgery

First you need to acquire lots of different useful signatures from teachers, secretaries, parents, etc. Now that you have the signatures, and their specific notes or tardy slips, practice forgery.

To practice, get a few sheets of tracing paper and a few sheets of regular paper. Lay the tracing paper over the original signature and trace it on to the tracing paper a few times. Now lay the tracing paper over a different sheet and trace over the signature on the tracing paper hard. Now you should have an imprint of the original signature in the piece of paper under the trace paper. Now take a pen or pencil and trace through the groove making it look as smooth as possible. Do this a few times. When the paper rips from making imprints to hard, move on to one of the other signatures you traced over and practice more. The more you practice the easier your forgery will be.

Fill out a few tardy slips and sign them using the method above and sell them to students with the dates left blank. These pre filled out slips should be more expensive than the blank ones. Alternately, you could sell them all blank and offer your services for a fee to fill them out with the signature.

Lock Picking

There are two ideas here, but you can’t do both at the same time as they would defeat each other.

Making Pick Sets and Guides

What you will want to do is make a lot of different picks and wrenches to sell. Also make a guide on how to use them using your printer. Just print them out on half sheets, fold, and staple in the middle.

Picking Locks For Money

In certain situations, a fellow student may need a door open but does not have a key to access the other side. Luckily, they are graced with your presence. Learn to pick locks and offer your services, with a fee, in situations like the above.

Notes

For information on making picks and picking locks read this:

http://www.totse.com/bbs/Forum7/HTML/004689.html

Lockers

You can use the combinations to lockers and locker numbers to go through the lockers form last year, after the underclassmen have moved in, and take different items. You can then sell these items to other students in your grade or higher.

After you’ve taken what you want, sell the different combinations, with their locker numbers, to underclassmen.

Notes

Don’t limit yourself to just last years combinations, this was just a sure bet. You can ask around to older classes to sell to other classes but this can get confusing after a while.

Don’t sell the combinations in lists, sell them separately to make more money.

Whatever you take, don’t sell it to kids in the grade that you took them from.

Selling Information

Get as many workbooks, with answers, and study guides as possible. Copy them all onto paper, type up transcripts and print them off your computer. Now you have lots of useful things to sell underclassmen. If you can acquire answers from upperclassmen, sell them to kids in your grade and maybe underclassmen, as they will take the same classes the next year. Some suggested prices:

$20-30.00 for a workbook filled with correct answers

$5-10.00 per study guide

$15.00 for a booklet of study guides

$15-20.00 per set of test answers

$20-40.00 per booklet of test answers

If you acquire textbooks as well, sell them either during the summer or as school is letting out for the summer. Kids can read up, get ahead on the information, and work out some blank study guides you can sell to them as well

GENERAL NOTES

Don’t limit yourself to just your school, sell universal things to other schools as well. Good times for this would be sporting events. I suggest you do your business from the trunk of a car or the back of your house or something. Just be smart and creative. Use this file to create new ideas to make money for yourself.

Pyramid

Work out a payment system that lets you work over a group of friends that work over groups of friends at lots of different schools and so on. You will make more money this way because you will have a large amount of people working for you. Basically, selling your business is the hardest part. If someone catches on and realizes that you would be making a lot more money off them, then just tell them it’s their loss and leave them be. They may narc on you and mess up your nice business.



If anyone else has comments or additions, please feel free to post them.

Hooray! It can be done!

The reason people are not responding to this is because they can't be arsed to read it. Probably. I did.

Annoying thing is, it depends where you are located at.

Thats an awesome idea. Thanks a lot for the info.

print FREE coupons! ( the SAME ones!!over and over and over again.)

[dont say i NEVER helped you]

That was pretty helpful. Adding to favorites.

If anyone else has anything else to contribute: textbook answers, coupon sites, etc. please add them. I'll be doing some searching as well.

Very nice work, much thanks. Also buying candy in bulk from sams club then selling it at lunch for twice as much is easy and profitable. If someone asks, youre doing it for your church.

I really liked the forgery piece.

that was leet, also make the students sign somethign that says they wont tell, or theyp never knew you if it came to getting answers. :P

just a hypothetical idea

I think that the contract could be used against you if you were caught, it would make you seem more conspiratory and organized.

My idea: for safety's sake, when selling the tardy slips, limit yourself to, say, 5 per week. There are already plenty of people getting slips legitimately from the office and if there is a sudden increase in the number of tardy students, people will get suspicious.

It's really easy to get lockey combos at my school. So I'm going to make a list of combinations and then either sell that or take calculators/text books and sell them.

Wow Scuzzy thats exactly what me and my friends did for the past 2 years mwahaha. I have a few tips for you guys also:

Don't steal big stuff from the actual school, because you guys will be the first suspects, thats how we got busted stealing a laptop and 3 airport cards. Now, if we had only taken the airport cards which are 100 bucks each, we wouldn't have gotten caught. They crack down harder if you take big shit. We almost got away with it but my friend cracked after 2 hours of interrogation. So don't steal a lot of stuff while this is going on. We got away with some other stuff including some silver mugs, a stick of ram, a floppy disk drive etc. We also stole a ton of discmans and a digital camera. They are easy targets.

Also don't try to sell porn, no one buys it (unless you try selling it to younger kids like 8th - 9th grade they might) and it just gives you a bad rap if any of the guys you try to sell to mention it to the chicks.

You could buy snacks and sodas in bulk and sell them out of your locker for cheaper than the school sells them, that way you get all the business. To keep the sodas cool I don't know, in the winter you could leave em in your car.

To get permanent marker off of anything you steal put a little bit of toothpaste on the marker and move it around with your finger. The marker comes off like nothing.

Shoplift AA batteries and sell them for a little more expensive than at the store, or if that doesn't work sell them for cheaper. People (including myself) get wicked pissed when their batteries run out in their CD players and would do just about anything for some more.

If you have a car and know a lot of people who don't, then at lunch time tell them you will go to mcdonalds or something for a charge of 3 dollars per person + their food. You are going to mcdonalds anyway, so why not make a few bucks off of people. This one doesn't have a high return and is really a waste of time if your other business ventures are going good.

You can sell fun shit like stink bombs, laser pointers, etc. Kids get bored at school and I know i'd buy stuff like that.

If I think of other shit I will let you know. My friends and I weren't too successful because we focused more on the stealing aspect and not enough on the business aspect. I realize now that if we had done more selling and less theft that we would have made more money. Really the best idea here is the selling snacks and sodas that you get from like BJ's for pretty cheap. I know a few kids who did that when my sister went to school, he made a good profit off of it. Thats what I really suggest, that and like discmans, but make sure they aren't recognizable, and keep them for a while until it cools down about someone stealing it.

Very useful and informitive, you need to write a book or something!

Heres a good way to make some cash

Sell ciggerates to anyone who thinks their "cool" for smoking in the boy's room.

Its not too hard to get them, and u can get them dirt cheap from Indian Reservations or from say driving to canada or mexico, and picking up cartons. That way, u get 3 for about $40, and sell packs for 5 each, and make $110 profit just selling 3 cartons. Then again, you could also do that for chain smokers and make a huge profit.

Well, since it is that (http://www.totse.com/bbs/Forum3/HTML/016297.html) time of the year again, I figured this would be worthy of a bump before I'm off. E-mail me with questions about anything: scuzzyelo@hotmail.com or AIM me: scuzzy elo.

Fake a bus pass, depending on how good your schools are. The one's my school gives are easy.

My school has lockers that are recessed in the middle with a combo-lock built into the door. There is a black piece of plastic you push up to open it after putting in the combo.

To get into them just push up as hard as you can and towards the locker. You will feel a 'click' if you push it up hard enough. Then just wiggle it back and forth and it will open.

The other kind we have have the combo in the middle of the door too, but it is not recessed. There is a metal latch to the left of it near the end of the door. If you go straight over from the latch and stick a screw driver or other hard, slim object in there it will pop right open.

Some people have made a few hundred $'s in just a week by taking TI-8x's and putting em up on ebay.

Anybody got any other ideas that dont involve in school? Like shit on the street and stuff? Has anyone here had success selling something on the street?

My friend stole calculators from the math department. The good ones are pretty expensive (Texas instruments graphing calucators), and its very easy to snatch inconspicuously.

I've always wanted to borrow one of their laptops, but never had the guts. Getting caught is pretty bad enough, but getting caught and having the whole school know you like stealing...pretty embaressing and bad just as far as school record.

LOL, faking the student bus ID (you show an attendent the ID, then you put it in a card, and then they put in a card) is so damn easy. I would have done it but got lazy and didn't pursue borrowing a card to forge from (my friend had one he was willing to let me forge).

Anyways, these cards are so easy to forge. Just scan the template and a small picture of yourself. Cut and paste (on the computer) and print it up. Then, just get it laminated. Forgery is easy because the cards are basically slips of paper.No security measures

If anyone wants Arby's coupons for free meals, contact me at Ceninant on AIM, or EvilN2k1@hotmail.com on MSN

You can find the templates for Burger King and McDonalds coupons that I made here (http://remoteconnect.no-ip.info:5090/scuzzyelo/coupons.html).
