Telephone Company warning!

["Mike Silvers" <msilvers@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

All:

I realize that this is a bit off topic, but I wanted to reach as many AS/400
people as possible....

I was approached by a hacker using Yahoo messenger inquiring about teaching
him everything I could about the workings of an AS/400.  He told me that he
was breaking into a telephone company AS/400.  He told me that he is using a
dial in connection and he was at the AS/400 and he wanted to sign on.

If there is anyone from a phone company on the lists, you may want to check
for unauthorized users on your system.

He did not tell me (and he might not know) if he was dialing into a network
or directly to the AS/400 (using PPP).
