Question about voicemail and spoofcard

[becki1974]

Okay,I have a spoofcard. I have a cingular phone. I called my friend tonight using my spoofcard.She also has a cingular cell phone. When I called her with the spoofcard I made the phone number on her cell phone show up as her own number,example-her phone number is(not really) 555-5555 so I made 555-5555 show up.She did not answer her phone it went to voicemail which in turn asked me if I wanted to check her messages,of course I said yes and listened to her messages.I tried this again calling my husbands cingular phone and it did the same thing,I called another cingular cell phone and the same thing happened again,I was able to listen to the messages.Does this only happen if the person doesnt have a password on the voicemail? I wonder if this works with other cell carrier voicemail systems? Has anyone else tried or done this before? I know with cingular to check your voicemail you just dial your own cellphone number from your cell phone.

I don't think I've ever been given the option to even set a password for my shitty cingular service.

Are you able to check your voice mail from a different phone?

im sure it can be done, but when I tried to use my homephone and i called my cell (without spoofing) all i got was my voicemail,but with no options to check my messages.

I havent ever been given a password option either,and one thing about cingular is fewest dropped calls my ass!(they used to advertise they had the fewest dropped calls)

Try pressing * when your message is playing.

This trick used to work on T-Mobile and Sprint PCS too, but I think they may have fixed it.  With T-Mobile, it required calling into a special voicemail access number in California.  I have the number written down somewhere if anyone wants it.  The trick to not getting haxed with this is instructing your voicemail to ask for your pin number every single time you check your messages.  It's more of a hassle, having to do that but it sure beats having your voicemail broken into.

I hacked a bunch of T-Mobile voicemails a few years back.  I changed all of their greeting messages.

That number could come in handy if you do not mind sending it to me in a private message. I know numbers are not to be posted here.

Meh, they never fixed it.  Unless you set a password on your voicemail 'from own number' someone can spoof your number to the voicemail line and have total access.  Typically this option is hidden half a dozen menu items deep and often times labeled something weird.

My own mediocre attempt at humor has been highly amusing to myself. i know i always set a pin for the customers, it seems to make the pwnage that much more frustrating.
