What started as a billing dispute became one of the wildest hacks in history.
Mobman slammed the $900 phone bill onto his desk. His stomach churned. This wasn’t just annoying — it was personal.
Calls to Kansas?
Arkansas?
He didn’t even know anyone there. He gripped the phone and dialed AT&T customer service, determined to fix their mistake.
“Sorry, sir, those charges are valid,” the rep said, her tone dismissive. “If you don’t pay, we’ll disconnect your service.”
Mobman’s frustration boiled over.
“I’m under 18. This contract isn’t even legal!”
He hoped that sounded more intimidating than it felt coming out of his mouth.
“Doesn’t matter,” she replied, with a smugness that cut through the receiver.
“And trust me, kid, our systems are too secure for someone like you to hack.”
Click.
That was it.
That was the moment everything changed. Fueled by anger and a bruised ego, Mobman set out to prove just how wrong they were.
