Yeah what's up with numbers that pick up and DTMF their #s out then disconnect? What's this used for? There's a lot of them around me in the 212 NPA.

I recently decided, based on a joke from a friend that someone's number should be 800-EAT-SHIT, to see if there was a number like that.

I scanned a few prefixes in 303 area code and got this one :

303-EAT-SHIT
DTMF decoded, that's :
303-328-7448

This number just rings about 4 times, then disconnects itself. I've called it several times, on different days, at different hours but it only does this and nothing else.

An internet search on this phone # turns up nothing. Neither did 411.

have you back spoofed the number since nothing came up with a reverse look up?

i found a # that reads back DMTF today, but have not decoded the tones yet... 718-890-1210 (890 is an exchange for verizon numbers only, not subscribers)

641-269-1248 - Scratchy sampled voice thingie. 98 will make it dump all phrases. Monitoring equipment of some sort? If you don't press # when it answers, a modem will connect you to what looks like a completely different machine.

641-269-1222 - Feature IVR, voice samples from the DMS' EDRAM. Anybody have any idea what a pilot number is?

303-EAT-SHIT

Maybe it's just going offhook really silently and waiting for touchtones, or some other form of authentication. Also, could it be cellular black route? No, really, they exist. Once I got a MetroPCS non-payment recording trying to call Iowa from a DodgyFon. For those who aren't familiar with a black route, the idea is someone can re-originate a call over something without paying USFs. People will sell minutes on whatever they can get their hands on - cell phones, POTS lines, cable phones, T1s, whatever. If it costs significantly more to make a legitimate call somewhere, odds are there's someone who wants to make a "special carrier arrangement" to bypass those fees. The machines that run POTS black routes will force the line into a permanent signal condition when they're not in use (if you'd like to make a call, please hang up, etc), but with a cell phone, you can't do that. This could be their way of dealing with people who call it back. 

EDIT: Almost forgot about this.

515-859-1206 - Is this some sort of class of service readback machine? If you've got a second, tell me what it gives you from whatever you've got handy. This could be an awesome tool if we figure out what it's trying to read back.

hmm-I called that 515 number from two cellys , with different providers and got an ANAC read-back on both phones (sort of). The first two numbers of my NPA were cut off , and so was the last digit of the number..

I could have pulled their address with ease earlier but was not thinking, still can but that's besides the point.. I've never heard a number do this before. answers with dtmf. 1 through 0 seems to answer with two dtmf tones unless you hit * first, and # will disco.

anyone know what this is, or know any similar numbers before I start working on it???

Application Builder is part of CallPilot. It's used to build mailboxes, templates, mailbox classes, RPLs, & SDLs-maybe more.

Ext. 3100 is no doubt the guy testing the mailbox he just built, hence his wording.

I found this number a few years ago when I found out about the CBS Feed at 3408, and I always used to play around with it.

800-711-3407 - Flight Test Airplane Status System Main Menu

Call in, and it gives you options for a variety of planes somewhere. Selecting a plane or option will give you a recorded message about the status and location of that plane, and make references to various codes about these planes.

VM was full on Saturday...anyone know if it's chronically full like an abandoned mailbox, or are biscuits very popular at this company....


EDIT- a little googling leads me to believe that this phone number may belong to virginia tech... could it be a special cafeteria service for profs ?

Was going through some of my asterisk recordings from last June and ran across this interesting number. Confirmed it is still giving the same response tonight.

907 372 9999 in Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska

When you call it, you hear what sounds like a bunch of unrelated recording segments pasted together.

"SIT 3 2 1 hang up now. Please hang up. The number you are trying to reach is off. It will remain off - is now on - is now off. Please read the instruction card. For emergencies, please hang up and try again later - at midnight."

It's full! Damn, those must be some good biscuits.

So someone reposted this from an 80's textfile back in 2007;

212-799-5017 ABC NEW YORK FEED LINE

I think this is some kind of hub that distributes TV content to the local ABC channels. Try listening whenever ABC does their news stuff in the morning. The same segment repeats multiple times. Also, you'll hear gems like this;
