[Tutorial] How to get someone to give you info 02-20-2013, 07:21 PM

This is a tutorial explaining how to get information from someone. The key to this tutorial is building trust. Make sure you read the Blues Eyes tell no lies thread before this, because knowing wether or not they are giving you true information is essential to getting the answers you want.
Ill break it down step by step. If you are already friends with this person and they trust you, you can skip to step 4. (this is because the first few steps have to do with building that kind of trust that you prolly already have)
Step 1: Recognizance
This is possibley the most important step. You need to know information ahead of time to get the info you want. For instance, if you were to SE a business, you need info on how this business works and commonly used terminology. If your SEing a normal person, try to find out some info about them. The more you can relate and put the person at ease, the easier it is to get info from them.
Step 2: Meet and Greet
When meeting the person, be genuinely friendly, and look personable. Strike up a convo using some of the info you found in step 1. If its a business, use the info to make it seem like your already an insider. If its just a regular person, use the info to point out that you are alike in someway. People trust people they relate closely to.
Step 3: Build Rapport
DO NOT just jump into the info your trying to obtain. Start with simple things like the weather, or sports. Get a dialoge going on on something totally unrelated to what you need. They longer you small talk the more the person will start to feel comfortable with you. Make sure to switch topics every few minutes so they dont feel startled when you switch to the topic you need from them
Step 4: Strike up the topic you need info on
This step is important because you need to do it as inconspicuous as possible. You dont want your victim raising any red flags when you switch to this topic. Bring it up as you would bring up a rugby game, or something else not so personal. Make sure to pay attention to body language so that you can see if the person feels uncomfortable talking. If they are uncomfortable, switch the topic back to something else, and then bring it back up later in the convo, or wait and bring it up some other time.
Step 5: Surround “the question” with seemingly invaluable questions
If your trying to get a very specific question answered, you need to surround it with questions that theyll feel comfortable answering. For instance, if you want to know about what they use for internet security, ask them questions about if they heard about all the hacking thats been going on, if they are worried about they're info being stolen, *what type of security do you use?*, have you heard about Anonymous, etc etc etc. See how i just threw that in the middle? They wont feel threatened because the other question just seem conversational.
Step 6: Don’t just walk away, but do change the topic
People remember the last thing they talked about in any conversation. If you just stop talking right after you gain the info you need, most likely theyll catch on, and it will make it that much harder to SE them the next time. Switch back to an unimportant topic or two before leaving the person.
Step 7: Enjoy your new intel!
Once you have the info you need, you’ll be a happy camper, and the person will be none the wiser. Repeat these steps as often as you need to get all the info you need! Happy Manipulating!
