Not a programmer but he was absolutely terrible at hiding his tracks.
Not using any time delay in its triggering so as soon as he was laid off his gifts went off.
Using a system only he has access too.
Using the work computer to search for it and obviously develop it on a dual boot.
I mean seriously… He made no attempt to avoid being caught.
I have a work phone and a personal phone. The work phone i answer calls from I known numbers all the time. My contact information gets passed around as part of my business. For a while I had scammers hitting my number 3-4 times per day. I answered and fucked with them every time. A little free stress relief through the day. Now I almost never get them anymore.
My personal phone I have always screened all the calls. It still gets hit with scammers 2-3 times per week.
I guess you are right. There is a list going around of numbers who waste their time.
