How to "steal" local calls from most Payphones
Now to make free local calls, you need a finishing nail. We highly
recommend "6D E.G. FINISH C/H, 2 INCH" nails. These are about 3/32 of an
inch in diameter and 2 inches long (of course). You also need a large
size paper clip. By large we mean they are about 2 inches long
(FOLDED). Then you unfold the paper clip. Unfold it by taking each
piece and moving it out 90 degrees. When it is done it should look
somewhat like this:
/----------\

Now, on to the neat stuff. What you do, instead of unscrewing the
glued-on mouthpiece, is insert the nail into the center hole of the
mouthpiece (where you talk) and push it in with pressure or just hammer
it in by hitting the nail on something. Just DON'T KILL THE MOUTHPIECE!
You could damage it if you insert the nail too far or at some weird
angle. If this happens then the other party won't be able to hear what
you say.
You now have a hole in the mouthpiece in which you can easily insert
the paper clip. So, take out the nail and put in the paper clip. Then
take the other end of the paper clip and shove it under the rubber cord
protector at the bottom of the handset (you know, the blue guy...). This
should end up looking remotely like...like this:
/----------\ Mouthpiece

====================\---))): : To earpiece ->

Cord Blue guy
(The paper clip is shoved under the blue guy to make a good connection
between the inside of the mouthpiece and the metal cord.)
Now, dial the number of a local number you wish to call, sayyyy,
MCI. If everything goes okay, it should ring and not answer with the
"The Call You Have Made Requires a 20 Cent Deposit" recording. After the
other end answers the phone, remove the paper clip. It's all that
simple, see?
There are a couple problems, however. One is, as we mentioned
earlier, the mouthpiece not working after you punch it. If this happens
to you, simply move on to the next payphone. The one you are now on is
lost. Another problem is that the touch tones won't work when the paper
clip is in the mouthpiece. There are two ways around this..
A> Dial the first 6 numbers. This should be done without the paper
clip making the connection, i.e., one side should not be connected. Then
connect the paper clip, hold down the last digit, and slowly pull the
paper clip out at the mouthpiece's end.
B> Don't use the paper clip at all. Keep the nail in after you
punch it. Dial the first 6 digits. Before dialing the last digit, touch
the nail head to the plate on the main body of the phone, the money safe
thingy..then press the last number.
The reason that this method is sometimes called clear boxing is
because there is another type of phone which lets you actually make the
call and listen to them say "Hello, hello?" but it cuts off the
mouthpiece so they can't hear you. The Clear Box is used on that to
amplify your voice signals and send it through the earpiece. If you see
how this is even slightly similar to the method we just described up
there, kindly explain it to US!! Cause WE don't GET IT!
Anyways, this DOES work on almost all single slot, Dial Tone First
payphones (Pacific Bell for sure). We do it all the time. This is the
least, WE STRESS *LEAST*, risky form of Phreaking. And remember. There
are other Phreaks like you out there who have read this article and punch
payphones, so look before you punch, and save time.
