Oryan QUEST Vs. Dan Pasquale June 21, 1986
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
Yes, our buddy from the west coast is back in action, this time against Oryan
|
|
QUEST. Oryan QUEST was busted on April 6, 1986 (See PWN Issue IV Part 2), for
|
|
hacking AT&T Mail, by the San Mateo Police Department and the FBI. Because of
|
|
legal technicalities, the charges were dropped but, Oryan's computer was
|
|
confiscated and never returned. He has since bought a new computer (IBM AT)
|
|
and is now back among us.
|
|
|
|
It is believed that someone (Dan Pasquale?) must have found Oryan's notebook
|
|
which contained his passwords on to bulletin boards around the country. One
|
|
example of this is "The Radio Station Incident" (See PWN Issue IV Part 3) where
|
|
a fake Oryan QUEST wandered the BBS and when questioned as to his legitimacy
|
|
quickly dropped carrier.
|
|
|
|
Most recently Oryan QUEST has been getting job offers in computer security. He
|
|
hasn't accepted any at this time. Also he has been getting several calls from
|
|
Dan Pasquale. Dan wants Oryan's help to bust any and all hackers/phreaks. Dan
|
|
is very pissed these days because someone charged $1100.00 worth of Alliance
|
|
Teleconferences to his phone bill and now he wants revenge. He has stated that
|
|
one of his main projects is to bust P-80, sysoped by Scan Man. Dan Pasquale
|
|
says that Scan Man works for a long distance communications carrier. I
|
|
personally think he has as much of a chance of busting P-80 Systems as a
|
|
snowball staying frozen in a microwave.
|
|
|
|
Lets face it, if John Maxfield and the other investigators haven't busted P-80
|
|
yet, they never will...let alone some little police sergeant in California.
|
|
Dan also added that he is going to "hose" Speed Demon Elite. He claims that he
|
|
is already a member of SDE and that its only a matter of time before he takes
|
|
it down forever. He also mentioned that he has placed a Dialed Number Recorder
|
|
(DNR) on Radical Rocker's phone lines. Furthermore, it was learned that Dan
|
|
Pasquale managed to get an account on to The Underground, sysoped by Night
|
|
Stalker. It is unknown as to if Dan has anything to do with Night Stalker's
|
|
bust.
|
|
|
|
Dan Pasquale also said, "I will bust these hackers any way I can!" To really
|
|
understand what that statement means you would probably have to live in
|
|
California. What Pasquale was referring to was moving violations. If you (a
|
|
driver under 21) receive any type of moving violation, both your insurance
|
|
company and your parents are notified. This raises your insurance rates and
|
|
gets you into trouble. If you get two moving violations, kiss your license
|
|
goodbye for at least 2 years.
|
|
|
|
Radical Rocker having heard about Dan Pasquale's plans to destroy Speed Demon
|
|
Elite, went on a user purge and has destroyed any and all accounts that were
|
|
held by those that he did not know personally. Speed Demon Elite is now a
|
|
private BBS and supposedly Radical Rocker has now cleared things up with Dan
|
|
Pasquale.

Marx and Tabas: The Full Story July 1,1986
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
It all started with Cory Andrew Lindsly aka Mark Tabas, age 19. He worked for
|
|
the Colorado Plastic Card Company and had access to the plastic cards that
|
|
credit cards were made with. He had taken 1350 and stashed them away for later
|
|
usage.
|
|
|
|
His plan would have went perfectly if not for Steve Dahl. He was busted in
|
|
Miami by the US Secret Service for whatever reasons. They gave him a chance to
|
|
play ball. Dahl had heard about Mark Tabas and Karl Marx's scheme and after
|
|
informing the Secret Service about this he was given an embossing machine.
|
|
Steve Dahl then flew to Denver and set up the meeting. Mark Tabas lived in
|
|
Denver and wanted his friend James Price Salsman aka Karl Marx, age 18, to join
|
|
in on the fun. So Marx flew down on a carded plane ticket that Tabas had
|
|
signed for.
|
|
|
|
The meeting took place in a room at the Denver Inn. The room was bugged and 19
|
|
cards (Visa, MasterCard, and some blanks) were made from a possible 140 that
|
|
they had brought. They decided to celebrate by ordering champagne on the card
|
|
of Cecil R. Downing.
|
|
|
|
A member of the Secret Service actually delivered the champagne to the room
|
|
disguised as a waiter. Tabas signed for the drinks and the twosome were
|
|
nailed. To make matters worse the SS also matched Tabas's signature with the
|
|
signature used to buy the carded plane ticket.
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
The sentencing goes like this: Maximum: 10,000 dollars (Local Law)
|
|
Maximum: 250,000 (Federal Law)
|
|
Maximum: 10 years in jail (both)
|
|
|
|
Or any combination of the three.
|
|
|
|
Both Tabas and Marx were let out on bail of five thousand dollars each. The
|
|
actually charge is: The manufacturing and possession of unauthorized access
|
|
devices. The U.S. Magistrate Hilbert Schauer will be overhearing the case.
|
|
|
|
There is a rumor that charges on Salsman were dropped and that he is in no
|
|
trouble at all since he didn't actually buy the plane ticket, he was given it,
|
|
he didn't steal the cards, and he didn't emboss them. So supposedly the Secret
|
|
Service let Marx go because he didn't know about the cards, he was just there
|
|
at the wrong time.

The Saga Of Mad Hacker July 15, 1986
|
|
----------------------
|
|
Mad Hacker of 616 NPA 616 wrote a random Compuserve hacker because he was bored
|
|
and wanted something to do. It ran constantly for about a week and was he
|
|
surprised when it came up with an account. However he made the mistake of not
|
|
checking to see whose account it was, he used the SIG's (Special Interest
|
|
Group's) and ran up a bill slightly under $300.
|
|
|
|
About a month later he was living over at a friend's house and the owner of the
|
|
account showed up, who just happened to be a family friend of the people that
|
|
MH was staying with. He asked both of them (the teenagers that is) if they
|
|
were using his account (they all had Compuserve accounts and the family knew
|
|
they were computer buddies). Mad Hacker said no and truthfully meant it.
|
|
|
|
Now around July 1, 1986 the account owner turned the matter over to the
|
|
Kalamazoo Police Department since CIS (Compuserve) could not find anything out
|
|
beyond the dialup used to access the account. The police called around to
|
|
everyone in the area ("everyone" meaning all the "real" hacks and phreaks, not
|
|
rodents who think they're bad because they use handles) including Thomas
|
|
Covenant and Double Helix. Most of everyone instantly forgot that Mad Hacker
|
|
ever existed, but somehow they got a hold of the phone number where he was
|
|
staying (at the time he was staying at his girlfriend's house, he was not
|
|
living there before) and contacted the owner of the account and put out a
|
|
warrant for Mad Hacker's arrest.
|
|
|
|
As of now, Mad Hacker faces *FELONY* charges because of the large amount of the
|
|
bill. The warrant for his arrest has been suspended, letting the account owner
|
|
to handle things in his own way. The owner has confiscated all of Mad Hacker's
|
|
computer equipment (3 computers and hardware etc.) until the bill is completely
|
|
paid back.
|
|
|
|
Mad Hacker has progressed from merely delivering clever obscenities over the
|
|
fone to his adversary to actual vengeance. One example in the planning stages
|
|
will be in the form of camping out in said account owner backyard (in a rural
|
|
area), hooking up to a junction box, and running the account owner's Long
|
|
Distance phone bill out of sight.
|
|
|
|
Mad Hacker is supposed to have a file on Junction Box Modeming coming soon, he
|
|
is currently borrowing a computer from a friend.

Lock Lifter *Busted* July 2, 1986
|
|
--------------------
|
|
Lock Lifter was busted for hacking an MCI Vax. he had downloaded a list of MCI
|
|
Calling Cards that he later abused and in return he received a *free* DNR on
|
|
his line for about 3 months. He was also given a scare from MCI Investigations
|
|
(for unknown reasons) previous to his visit from law enforcement officers and
|
|
as such his BBS, The Black Chamber, was deleted and the userfiles were
|
|
destroyed, so there really isn't much to worry about from the user's
|
|
standpoint.
|
|
|
|
Lock Lifter had been making plans to take his board down anyway, so being
|
|
without The Black Chamber is just an adjustment we would have had to make
|
|
eventually regardless of Lock Lifters bust.

Some notes from Cheap Shades:
|
|
|
|
"I was told by Arthur Dent that Lock Lifter did not have his computer anymore,
|
|
but someone using LL's password called my AE, Metal Shop AE (for which he had
|
|
lost his AE access but could still log on), and left me feedback in all caps
|
|
(not like LL would do) that said something like PLEASE GIVE ME ACCESS TO THE
|
|
GO AE FUNCTION." Arthur Dent has now confirmed that Lock Lifter did not make
|
|
the call in question and that there is definitely a fed or someone with Lock
|
|
Lifter's BBS passwords. Sysops be warned.

Daniel Zigmond: The Plot Thickens July 13, 1986
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
Daniel Zigmond appeared, for a short time, on Pirate-80. Scan Man let him on
|
|
to make a statement and then shut him off the board. It is now left to the
|
|
users to decide whether or not he should be allowed back on.
|
|
|
|
Information by Sally Ride:::Space Cadet
|
|
|
|
Some sources say that we are seeing "Whacko Cracko" syndrome, where the story
|
|
gets more and more bizarre as versions get modified. Like TWCB, Zigmond
|
|
supposedly says one thing to one person and something different to the next,
|
|
depending on what he thinks they may want to hear.
|
|
|
|
The following information was found under in an anonymous post on an unspecific
|
|
bulletin board. It would appear that someone performed a credit check on
|
|
Daniel Zigmond (with TRW) and came up with some very interesting results.
|
|
|
|
As many of you should know, TRW keeps records of all major transactions you
|
|
make, credit cards you have, house or car payments, bank accounts you own, your
|
|
job, and many other things. Daniel Zigmond's TRW account is a little
|
|
different, it has been flagged and the information is not there. What it does
|
|
show is that Daniel Zigmond holds the position of Staff Programmer at Carnegie
|
|
Mellon University, a technical school in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It also
|
|
shows that he was born in 1959 and although it would appear that he is 27,
|
|
Daniel claims to be 26. TRW lists his only bank account as being at the
|
|
Pittsburgh National Bank.
|
|
|
|
What this would mean is that Zigmond has never owned a car, never rented a car,
|
|
never owned or rented a house, never had a credit card, never made any major
|
|
transactions, and has only one bank account.
|
|
|
|
During teleconferences on July 15th and 16th, several members of the PhoneLine
|
|
Phantoms and myself questioned Zigmond about his TRW account and several other
|
|
things. Zigmond claims to know nothing about why his account is like this and
|
|
up till we brought up the fact that he worked at CMU, he had been telling
|
|
people that he was a reporter only.
|
|
|
|
As far as his reasons for needing codes, passwords, etc... He says its so his
|
|
boss (whomever it will be) will believe the story. Why shouldn't he believe
|
|
it? Haven't there been enough articles on hackers and phreakers in the past?
|
|
Its been in the news very often and I'm sure that everyone remembers the
|
|
Richard Sandza articles, "Night of The Hackers" and "Revenge of The Hackers"
|
|
from Newsweek Magazine.
|
|
|
|
Most recently Daniel Zigmond has been speaking with several members of the Neon
|
|
Knights and he has obtained an account on the BBS World's Grave Elite, which is
|
|
sysoped by Sir Gamelord, the Vice-President of the P.H.I.R.M.
|
|
|
|
All hackers and phreaks are welcome to call him to be interviewed, although I
|
|
advise against it. Please do not call up to rag on him because it is
|
|
pointless. One example happened during the 2nd conference when someone called
|
|
on Danny's other line. They said "did we wake you up?" Danny said "no" and
|
|
then they hung up.
