SANctuary: reven
Did an airline ever lose your luggage? One veteran air traverls suggest you return their favor and make yourself some money. Here's the scam. Arrange to have a friend meet you at the terminal gate when you deplane. Give your friend your baggage claim checks and have him/her retrieve your bags from the carousel, then leave the baggage area with your bags. Before your friend leaves the airport with the luggage, be sure you get your claim checks back. Then, you suanter over to the baggage area, spend half an hour waiting for your bags. Some clerks for help, then report your "missing" luggage, showing your claim checks as proof.
"Very few flights ever have a clerk actually check the baggage and collect the claim checks. It's foolish, but they don't."
Make a polite, but firm scene and demand satisfaction. Normally, the airline people will have you fill out a form and they will attempt to trace your luggage. Obviously, the won't find it. Bug them some, write them letters. Soon, you should get a good settlement from the airline. Whatever you do, don't do this more than once on the same airline.
For a more personal attact, you can do a lot of damage to your enemy. For instance, if you find your enemy is going to use airline travel and you have only a few travel agents in town, you could call until you find the correct one and cancel the reservations. Of, if you know the name of the airline, call their office and cancel the reservations.
Apartments
To really annoy a mark who lives in an apartment, you might like to try glue in the lock so that when he tries to use it, it might appear that he is trying to pick the lock, but jamming his key in and out.
Another way to get your mark is to run a classified ad offering to sublet his/her apartment. You can lish either the mark's telephone number or that of his/her landlord. As usual, make the contact hour for very early in the morning "becuase of shift work schedule". You might want to make a "milk run" to the mark's apartment very early on several mornings and place a whole bunch of empty booze bottles outside his/her door. This works well in ritzy apartments where the neighbors are snobs.
Banks
It could be time to make your bankroll. According to our financial intelligence agent, you can make good money buying some very cheap foreign coins that are the same size as quarters. Get a paper coin wrapper. Wrap a few real quarters on the ends, but fill the rest of the roll with the cheapie import coins. Wrap the roll and Magic marker write some phone deposit account number on it to add authenticity. Take the rolls of coins into the targeted bank. If you dress like a businessperson and go at a busy time, especially with the account number written on each roll, and the rolls in a bank sack or your briefcase, the teller will give you $10 per roll without checking.
If you could get a banker to tell the truth, he'd admit that they hate college student checking accounts. There's probably a lot of justification, as most services like this for college students are far more costly than they're worth in return. However, that's not your problem. Suppose you have a gripe with the bank. Acting as the bank's ad manager, get in touch with the student newspaper at the school and arrange to run some ads which banner "STUDENTS WELCOME," plus such services as "NO SERVICE CHAGE, FREE CUSTOM-PRINTED CHECKS, INTEREST ON THE BALANCE, NO MINIMUM BALANCE", and so on. Offer to give away free cd's or walkmen. The day after the "bank's" ad runs, they will be swamped with unwanted students, who are going to be very angry at the bank, and, probably at the student newspaper.
Modern banks now have cash machines where you insert your plastic card and the machine gives you money. If that institution or its machine has become your target, here's a dairyland delight you could employ. Take some tough, hard cheese and cut it the same size and shape as your plastic card. Insert the cheese "card" into the slot of the machine and leave the area. One banker told me it took a service person nin hours to clean the machine and get it operating again when someone pulled this stunt in Baltimore.
The bank still giving you trouble, or you didn't give them enough? It's time to move things up the scale a notch. Rent a safe deposit box under an assumed name. Pay cash for a three month rental. That's all the time you'll need to collect on this one. Go to the market and buy a couple of overripe fish (at a good bargain price). Carry them wrapped in plastic in your briefcase. Go directly to your safe deposit box. In the privacy of the ban's little cubicle, unwrap the fish and lay the big, stinky suckers right into the safe deposit box. Close it, lock it, and store it. Then, carry the fish wrappers, briefcase, and yourself out of that bank. In a few days, your deposit will gain their interest. You'd better do your real banking at another institution for awhile. It's quite possible that bank officials will have to hire someone to drill the lock on the targeted box to remove the contents, and how do you think they will feel once it is opened.
Cheese
It's tried and true, but I bet you haven't heard of it since you were a kid. This one came from Alabama, the old Limburger chesse on the muffler of a new car trick. The exhaust mainfold works well, too, as a surface for a cheese spread. Or, you can simply place some of the same substance behind a radiator in a home or office. Once it's burned on, the smelly sour effect can last for weeks, despite robust cleaning efforts.
CIA
Your mark might have sneaky points you never thought about. For example, maybe your mark would make a good CIA employee. You could easily find out. Write a letter of application to the Agency from your mark. The Agency gets hundreds of letter from would-be acting agents, e.g., unemployed gangsters, karate freaks, ex-soldires, Walter Mitty types, etc. I doubt if they take too many of these seriously. But, they might be interested in talking with a highly qualified technical person, e.g. an analyst, area expert, journalist with oodles of foreign experience, language expert, or economist. Advanced college degrees and military service abroad as an officer are fine credentials for your makr. Make up a good solid resume. It is probably illegal for you to make a false application in your mark's name using phoney credentials.

CB Radio
If you have a neighbor who is a pain in the ass with his CB or HAM radio that really throws off any radio or television stations, to really strike revenge, this is one of the best methods. You prick a tiny pin through the plastic outer cable and through the shield. Be sure it touches the core. Then, cut the head off the pin and push it in some more - out of sight. The plastic should close behind the pin, making the wound invisible. Do a couple of these along the coax between the antenna and CB set. It does stuttering wonders for the transmission
Classified Ads
Place personal ads or rental ads with your marks address and/or phone number in your ads. Then, write some kind of messages like, "Looking for sublet. Please, no fags, or niggers, etc." Wait a few days, and suddenly he will be the public target of lots of attacks. Or, if you would like to really make him suffer, try putting an ad in like this for the personals "Soft white male aged 35 wants to play with black lady with large buttocks. Bi-couples welcomed for Greek and French culture."
He should have a few sexual freakshows coming to his door.
