LinkedIn Scammers anyone?

Hey Flack, so you ever look at Attack Surface Monitoring or full time automated red teaming? Sit for a 45 min demo I'll cut you in half on the action ( or more), share of $500 appt fee if you pretend to be an opportunity or $400 if you tell them to fuck off at the end?

[Amiga Man]

you just posted a bunch of vague cliches, indicative of someone that is just rewriting nonsense they read on the internet and got caugh [...] No, a list of where people used to work is not valuable. Quit talking about things you have no idea about

You think my points are "vague"? Can you be more specific? As for me knowing what I'm talking about, how many pen tests have you done? How many speeches on security given? Secuity classes given? Consulting gigs with Fortune 500 companies, the US military? How many certifications do you have? Do you have a CISSP? You're the one who knows nothing, talking out your ass, dude. I could tell you how to use common office documents to steal millions from a company. There's a reason security-conscious organizations shred ALL office trash. You think they do it for fun?

So now STFU before you email arrays yourself even further, if that's possible. Crawl away in embarrassment as you should.

well, i wouldn't want to email arrays to myself haha. /whispers Retard.

like I said. Nowhere in there is anything about how knowing the previous employment locations is useful to anyone. You're just a blow hard with imposter syndrome in over his head and now youre trying to cover up your stupid statement with an appeal to your lackluster resume.

Pathetic. Take the loss and admit you were wrong

[Amiga Man]

It's definitely Finsternis

you guys know this person?

Since we've lost what a supposed to be a female member of the board, let me introduce you to this week's lovely spambot, it's a persistant little thing that's for sure. Not sure why it needs me to put my picture in my WhatsApp account:

Let's call her Odyssia77!

[Amiga Man]

Who could she be?

If only we knew where she used to work!

Hell yeah, Flack! That’s the kind of pen-test stories I enjoy.

I agree, that was very clever. Distraction and misdirection aren't just for magicians. Good thinking!

[odyssia76]

Are you a CISSP? Shoot me your LinkedIn. I am always looking for people to pass work to, both in person and remotely.

Thanks, I appreciate the offer. I do not actually have the cert, but I know a bunch of people who do and I would say I have equivalent experience. I've read a bunch of sample tests and could easily pass with a tiny bit of study. But due to Random Life Reasons I'm essentially retired from my several previous careers. One of those reasons is being unable to travel to client sites. Any work I did would have to be 100% remote, and since I couldn't do any in-person social engineering I don't feel I could do a proper pen test or a few other things. It's too bad - I was really good at it. And there is a lot you can do over the phone, now that I think about it..

Having said all that, I'm never averse to some extra bucks. I don't want a full time, permanent gig - I kind of like being retired and sleeping late! But if there were some appropriate work, such as doing very basic security reviews remotely or my speciality, teaching classes and giving presentations, I would consider it if it were a finite gig that could be done remotely. I excel at explaining complex IT concepts to non-technical folks and as a trainer. I know all the tech stuff in theory, but I let the wireheads program the routers. I do more of the policy/awareness stuff, and system stuff to some extent.

Oops, I didn't mean that to come out sounding like a resume. But you asked just at a time I have been considering dipping my toe back into the field to earn some extra bucks for the new house. I hear there is great demand, but so far I've been too lazy to actually get the cert. So feel free to ask, but unless it's something that can be done remotely, and not full time, I probably will say no thanks.

[odyssia76]

well, i wouldn't want to email arrays to myself haha. /whispers Retard.

It's not my fault this BBS doesn't allow editing of autocorrect typos, moron. I meant to write "emabarras", obviously. But hey, a typo is the only thing you have.

Nowhere in there is anything about how knowing the previous employment locations is useful to anyone. You're just a blow hard with imposter syndrome in over his head and now youre trying to cover up your stupid statement with an appeal to your lackluster resume.

Actually, my whole post was explaining how and why; you're simply too dumb to grasp complex concepts involved in studying a security APT. If you don't get it, tough shit, I'm not spending any more of my free time trying to explain algebra to a chimp. I'm used to getting at least three digits an hour to do that.

Pathetic. Take the loss and admit you were wrong

I'm literally laughing out loud at you. You claim my "resume" is"lackluster"? Ok, let's hear about yours. I asked you a bunch of questions in my previous response - unsurprisingly, you completely ignored all of them because you don't even HAVE a resume. Not in this field. So go ahead, pretend you have enough qualifications to question mine. Your bluffing is hilarious. If you think you're more qualified, prove it. But you won't. You can't. You will ignore this part of my message and just throw some more insults because that's all you CAN do. You're like a hillbilly talking to a brain surgeon and claiming that arteries aren't useful for anything. This is the real world, numbnuts. iIn the real world of IT security, things have advanced a bit beyond the little virus scanners you think are hot shit. How many Chinese or Russian attackers have YOU dealt with?

But now I know why you call yourself "Amiga Man" - it's because that was the most complex computer technology you ever understood.

[odyssia76]

Think we can be sure this is not a middle aged woman in, what? Vermont or something.

Why, because no woman living in Vermont could ever possibly... know stuff? I don't get it.

And if you paid attention you would know that I am NOT living in Vermont, but I will be moving there in the fall.

[odyssia76]

Not sure how we got back to cold calling which isn't scamming

That's debatable, and in any case it is every bit as slimy and lowlife.

I will say I just signed a 3 year contract with ZoomInfo today that actively scrapes the emails of lots of people who know your number so good luck. Have you been to RSA? There's over 3000+ cyber security startups in there, 80 percent using this tool to call real CISSP's. You better get a burner phone dude with this attitude.

LOL, I assure you no one is scraping any of MY info, spamboy. Why? Because I've got a massive amount of experience more than those newly-minted so-called professionals who are stupid enough to let the likes of your ilk spam them. In my opinion, any professional stupid enough to let you acquire their contact info deserves whatever kind of crappy little shady, fly by night client you have. You think web scraping is high tech? Bahaha! You ARE dumb. No wonder the best job you could get is Professional Annoying Asshole! See, the REAL professionals, the ones you would LOVE to reach, are way too smart for you. They don't need LinkedIn. They get jobs through word of mouth and referrals.

So sorry, Sammy McScamster, but one thing you can be sure of is that my number is not on your list or accessible by any of your child's toys.

Good thing everyone who knows you is just as amazing at computers as you are, Finn.

I had to laugh at Finsternis saying that he is "retired" and that his work comes from referrals and people that know him.

Must be the charming personality that caused his "network" to not reach out for work during the greatest hiring period for IT folk and remote jobs. Haha.

[RealNC]

Do you still need a cert if you can drop tables with your phone while taking a shit? Asking for a friend.

[Amiga Man]

Ah yes you meant to type "emabarras".... of course that was it /whispers Still a retard.....

Nowhere in there is anything about how knowing the previous employment locations is useful to anyone.

Actually, my whole post was explaining how and why

Not a word about why previous employment is meaningful. As I thought. Challenged and you had nothing, just circling like drain like the old bitch you are. Old and tired.

Admit it old man. You're out of your league here. You're part of the aging workforce today's tech, the people doing and not talking, wants no part of!

I'm used to getting at least three digits an hour to do that.

yet you're begging Flack for a job.... what are you old, fat and poor? lol

But now I know why you call yourself "Amiga Man" - it's because that was the most complex computer technology you ever understood.

And you did this strained pretend-user Trojan Horse thing because it's the only vehicle you can fit in.

Someone send me a PM with this idiot's name. We'll bloody well see how Mr Incompetent has 'scrubbed' himself online lol.

In Finn's defence, pretend characters have always been a real thing on this site, "Amiga Man".
