                 Gettin Calling Card #'s after school... 

I in no way endorse doing this. It can get you a lot of enemies or can get  
you hurt. If someone actually does try to do it, contact me and let me know  
how it worked out... 
_______________________________________________________________________________ 
You know all those people that hang around the phones after school? Here is an 
easy way to get their calling card #s. 

1. First you have to get in the mood. Pretend that you are "down with the  
   homies" or sag your pants down real low 

2. Pretend like you are going to make a call, and then slam down the receiver  
   and punch the phone while yelling random things in spanish like "taco"  
   "fajito" or "bandito" 

3. Now, they will either think you are pretty cool, or they will jump you.  
   Good luck if they jump you. Don't fight back and maybe they won't kill you. 

4. Then go over to them and do that special handshake thing with them. Ask  
   them if you can "kick back and scam their calling card for a few" 

5. If you got the card, there are three ways to keep the #: 
   If you have a photographic memory, just remember it 
   Put a mini tape recorder in your jacket and say the #s 
   Call your 1-800 voice mail and punch the #s in (easiest way) 

* In case you couldn't figure it out, this is sarcastic... don't get all mad  
about it...

                         Creditcard Security at Gas Stations 

  I realise that the title is somewhat of an oxymoron, but recent  
developments at gas stations in this area have created a huge hole in 
security.  This article is not intended to be a guide on how to obtain 
creditcard details, but on how to protect yourself from this abuse. 

  The problem arises from the gas stations that have the system where 
a customer can swipe there card at the pump, then pump the gas.  In  
Ohio only BP uses this system to my knowledge, but that may well vary 
depending on where you are.  If the customer decides not to have a  
recipt printed at the pump, when they replace the pump-handle, the 
display informs them that the recipt is available inside.  All someone 
has to do to get the card details of the customer is wait at a gas  
station at a busy time, watch for someone to use a creditcard and not  
get a recipt.  Then when they pull away, that person drives up to the  
pump the customer was using, go inside the booth and ask for the recipt 
to pump X.  Volia...a piece of paper with account details on it. 

	The moral of this tale is don't use creditcards at gas stations if 
you want to keep your account details to yourself. 

	A quick thing to point out is that often you will find printed 
recipts that have been left in the pump.  These also contain account 
details which you wouldn't want people to find out about.
