While being at college I've encountered many annoying, yet harmless 
kids.  No big deal.  But occasionally I've come across an asshole who either 
overstepped the authoritative boundaries (i.e. a Resident Advisor, Resident 
Director, a security/police officer, a Dean) or just a general asshole for 
whatever reason. 

The first set-up I considered (but would never involve myself in) 
has two marks.  The first being the owner of a computer which is hooked up 
to the net, and the second, being, a Dean of the school. 

Now, here's the deal: 

You must be able to access the first mark's computer for five to 
ten minutes depending on your typing ability and your knowledge of netscape. 
As many of you may or may not know netscape enables you to enter any return 
address when you send e-mail over the net.  In addition to this many schools 
enable you to send mail to all of the students, simply by mailing to 
something like this 'students@yourschool.edu'. 

Now it doesn't take a genius to put together the framing 
possibilities, but they are able to trace exactly what computer from, and 
they can always more carefully check all of the mail that goes through the 
school. 

Here is one of the idea's that sets up the first mark perfectly, and 
floods the second one with e-mail and phone calls: 

Things you should probably know beforehand: 

 
The time of day in which the most e-mail is sent. 
The e-mail address of the second mark (a Dean or the like) 
The phone number of the second mark. 
A short prepared letter (I'll get to that later) 
A sample of a letter written by the second mark (you must 
use the same format to be convincing!!!) 

Okay, here's the plan: 

Get into the first marks room and access netscape.  Change the 
return address to the second mark's (note: make sure everything is spelled 
correctly to assure that it doesn't get noticed - the system operator will 
notice if there is something wrong, trust me).  Now, time to enter the 
letter.  Make the letter say something that will stir up some response, 
especially by the people who use e-mail. Try something like saying e-mail 
will be shut down because of profanity (we all know how hooked everyone is 
on e-mail).  Or try cancelling a popular event or saying something 
contraversial, but not too absurd (although absurdity will still be somewhat 
valid).  Be sure to openly invite return mail on the subject or calls.  Now, 
change the return address back to whatever it originally was, because leave 
your trail as covered as possible, even if you don't think it will link back 
to you.  Try to have an alibi for that time, even have someone to contest to 
it, but don't be too quick on the draw for an alibi.  Finally, keep your 
fool mouth shut!!!  Don't tell a person.  Someone may feel sypathetic and 
tell the mark to get him out of trouble. 

The beauty of the whole thing is that it looks like the first mark 
tried to cover his tracks, but not enough to get past the sysop.  Well, have 
fun, and I'm sure you can think of many variations, but when you do it, make 
it count. 

Well, have fun,
