Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net.

Default Am I fucked?

I got this in my school e-mail:

Date: Thu, 2 Oct 2008 15:19:53 -0400
From: "Charles Dawson" <c.j.dawson@fbi.gov>
To: *******
Subject: Presence Requested

Dear Mr. *****:

I have been assigned your case, regarding multiple accounts of internet
piracy, by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Your case has been set for hearing/trial on Thursday, October 9, 2008, at
Seven A.M. in the Richmond courthouse, located at 905 Decatur St
Richmond, VA 23224. Your case is before Judge Hanson in courtroom 3A.

You will find it most convenient to park behind the courthouse. Judge
Hanson's courtroom is located on the second floor. I will meet you in the
lobby at Six-Thirty A.M. the day of the trial.

Please be present for this, as your absence will concede the trial to the
prosecution, and lead to your deportation. If you have any questions, please
feel free to reply back and we can set up a meeting.

Sincerely,

Charles Dawson
Federal Bureau of Investigation
PHONE NUMBER REMOVED


Thing is, I didn't even download any movies or anything... and it's completely weird because it's in my school e-mail, and there is no internet connection under my name. How should I respond to this? Please help, Totse.

Maybe someone else was using your Internets for CP!
No really it seems okay you must remove all other illegal things from your system and thermite your HDD. ASAP!

One more thing, just e-mail the c.j guy or call him to confirm that its all real before doing anything stupid.

No you're not fucked. If the FBI really did want to you to come to court, you'd receive a summons, through real mail, it would be signed, and have a watermark/raised emblem. You would have also likely been contacted in person, or by phone.

Call the courthouse to confirm, report the email as fraud to the real FBI if it is.

Sorry it took me a while to find those phone number items. I didn't even think about checking for it.

Well, they're removed now for everyone's amusement.

That's about the least well-done prank I've ever heard of. An email from the FBI claiming to bring you to court... what are you, a fucking idiot? If you're that gullible, let me send you an email about how you can make tons of money through a "pyramid" program.
