PhoneInfoga

Information gathering & OSINT reconnaissance tool for phone numbers. Designed for Social Engineering and red teaming.

The project

Building one of the most advanced tools to scan phone numbers using only free resources. The goal is to first gather basic information such as country, area, carrier and line type on any international phone numbers with a very good accuracy. Then try to determine the VoIP provider or search for footprints on search engines to try identify the owner.

This tool requires python 2.x

Features

• Check if phone number exists and is possible
• Gather standard informations such as country, line type and carrier
• Check several numbers at once
• OSINT reconnaissance using external APIs, Google Hacking, phone books & search engines
• Use custom formatting for more effective OSINT reconnaissance

Formats

The tool only accepts E164 and International formats as input.

• E164: +3396360XXXX
• International: +33 9 63 60 XX XX
• National: 09 63 60 XX XX
• RFC3966: tel:+33-9-63-60-XX-XX
• Out-of-country format from US: 011 33 9 63 60 XX XX

Available scanners

Use any to disable this feature. Default value: all

• numverify
• ovh

Advanced information gathering tool for phone numbers
(https://github.com/sundowndev/PhoneInfoga)

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -n number, --number number
                        The phone number to scan (E164 or International
                        format)
  -i input_file, --input input_file
                        Phone number list to scan (one per line)
  -o output_file, --output output_file
                        Output to save scan results
  -s scanner, --scanner scanner (any to skip, default: all)
                        The scanner to use
  --osint               Use OSINT reconnaissance
  -u, --update          Update the tool & databases

Example (quotes are optional, use it when typing special formats) :

python phoneinfoga.py -n "(+42)837544833"

Check for a number range on OVH :

python phoneinfoga.py -n +42837544833 -s ovh

Check several numbers at once :

python ./phoneinfoga.py -i numbers.txt -o results.txt

Note: --osint is not compatible with --output option.

Use all scanners and run OSINT reconnaissance :

python phoneinfoga.py -n +42837544833 -s all --osint

Formatting

E.164 formatting for phone numbers entails the following:

• A + (plus) sign
• International Country Calling code
• Local Area code
• Local Phone number

For example, here’s a US-based number in standard local formatting: (415) 555-2671

Here’s the same phone number in E.164 formatting: +14155552671

In the UK, and many other countries internationally, local dialing may require the addition of a '0' in front of the subscriber number. With E.164 formatting, this '0' must usually be removed.

For example, here’s a UK-based number in standard local formatting: 020 7183 8750

Here’s the same phone number in E.164 formatting: +442071838750

Dealing with Google captcha

PhoneInfo use a workaround to handle Google bot detection. When running OSINT scan, you will usually be blacklisted very easily by Google, which will ask the tool to complete a captcha.
