Has Social Engineering become nothing but refunding? #1
Literally where are the methods to break into shit, to get free items.

Its always refund this refund that. It feels like the originality and creativity that makes social engineering an art is slowly dying out.

Let me know your thoughts on it.

It is the way it is. Refunding is very simply too good a strategy. "Don't change a strategy that wins", I suppose. It does mean we have less "artistic" ideas and solutions.

I like to think of social engineering as the method, not the final result.

What you use social engineering for is up to you, but the tools are useful in many situations.

I think because so many common companies have changed their policies (like think how often companies would issue advanced replacements compared to now) so people resort to that. I think people are still testing things here and there, just not posting about it unno.

Generally with our forum, I figured this went without saying. However, recent discussion has led me to believe otherwise. People are encouraged to read and follow our rules, especially those regarding illegal content. You have been warned - @Oni

Pretty much this. A few years ago, company policies were a lot lax. Amazon now using OTP for high value deliveries just proves this, only a few years ago you could triple dip refunding Macbooks for example, without any investigation.
These days its best to spend time finding undiscovered stuff that hasn't been rinsed by everyone, which is what I do now. Its much more worth it

It's the result and magnitude of Influx of claims.

I suspect their policies will be tightened further In the coming years.

Truth is if there’s faster ways to gain your results with higher limits compared to if your doing normal se with a less chance of success and a lower limit .it’s obvious which option your going to choose .I don’t think se will ever die though as there’s always going to be new ways to exploit things

Haha ok here a simple SE trick. If your credit score is half decent, go and apply for any credit card - under income bullshit something high and under job you can bullshit too and watch you get approved with a limit accordingly. Banks dont cross check and infact can't cross check with your data in the revenue agencies.

Same applies when applying for loans, fabricate whatever document is required - photoshop invoices/statements bla bla to meet eligibility criteria and you get it.

After all that dont fuck up - when you get audited, the latter can bite you in the ass.
