Social engineered WoW gaming BTC site - d4ggm4sk - 04-07-2021
So, Im not gonna make this a too complex description, but I think I managed to trick a gaming website on cash worth of roughly more than $500.
So what happened was basically that i logged on and wanted to buy a service. Im not gonna mention which site, but basically getting me the rarest mount in WoW, thats worth millions of gold in the game. The cost for this was $500 and since I had spare bitcoin that I wasnt going to use, I just loaded them into the site. A seller appeared, but instead of clicking the service that would pay for the service, I simply said "I have paid" and the seller said "Good, we will fix this for you." So because that I had chatted with customer support and cut corners here and there, and eventually, lied about having paid, the website did this service for me, and I then had ~$500 fresh cash on the website, that I could use one more time. So basically, I now have the rarest, most exotic mount, millions and millions of gold, and spent ~$500 but purchased services for about ~$1.000, the double amount of what i paid with some spare BTC.
So what do you think guys, was this a successful social engineering attack? What do you think about it? Am I maybe a bit persuasive?
