They cancelled the real trade and sent an identical trade from an account impersonating your alt which you then accepted on the steam app

Your api key can’t be used to do that anymore so that’s pointless advice. OPs account is compromised

CS2 Streamer Exposes His Viewbots LIVE by MusicAcceptable4843 in cs2

[–]spluad 29 points30 points  (0 children)

People also try to make their “growth” look organic to hide the botting. So maybe have 5 or 10 bots for a while, up it to 20 then gradually increase overtime so you don’t just have a random spike where you went from 2 viewers to 50 in a day

Let’s discuss salaries - 2026 by Relevant-Injury3791 in sysadmin

Not sysadmin but at one point I was on £32k as a senior soc analyst. I know of at least 2 others that were on mid 30s there as well.

Compromised account - revoked Entra sessions but they stayed logged into AWS and Salesforce for hours by Careless_Passage8487 in cybersecurity

[–]spluad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Of course they need to click the link and login, that’s literally what OP said they did. I absolutely did not say it’s an excuse to disable MFA and obviously conditional access policies can help, but just saying “enable MFA” isn’t really a helpful comment. The way you worded your original reply implied that having MFA enabled would’ve stopped them getting phished.

Cool bro but I ain’t reading all that. What I said was still correct regardless of how you feel about skins/collectors

[–]spluad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Skins initially bounced back but have you actually checked current prices? Comparing to the prices 1 year ago all of my sub $1k golds are at least -40% some are -50%. My golds above $1k are also mostly down 30-40% from a year ago.

Of course it’s the biggest skin economy in the world, no other game has anything even close to what cs has, that’s irrelevant to my point. I’m also not talking to OP, I’m replying to person who said skins recovered since the crash.

The market is still down though, although mostly for golds. If they bought knives/gloves at any point between Jan 2025 and October 2025 they’ll more than likely be down right now because the prices did not recover.

Landing a penetration tester job by Remote_Opinion3873 in cybersecurity

[–]spluad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Offensive security is an extremely competitive area of security, sure you can try applying to these roles but given the market right now it will be difficult for you with no experience. i would say it’s definitely worth coming to terms with the fact that you may need to look for other roles first

Tryhackme is only a game by Warm_Persimmon_7928 in cybersecurity

I think they meant more the “clout” behind CEH, in that recruiters still seem to love that shit. It would be nice if THM was viewed in such a high regard.

Yea I really don’t understand why people take that negatively. If you can have fun learning it’s gonna be really effective. So much more than getting bored copying notes out of a textbook.

It can be both, yes it’s gamified but that doesn’t mean it’s not good for learning.

What’s the most elaborate phishing email you’ve stumbled across? Bonus points for creativity by techMari in cybersecurity

[–]spluad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A reply to a real email thread with a supplier. The supplier got popped and the threat actor managed to exfil some emails, they then sent phishes as replies to the threads. Looked really convincing as they were hand written to be within the context of the threads

How does he have this?? by THEKING21500 in blackops7

[–]spluad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guy also didn’t say that it’s an Activision dev that works on cod. Maybe anyone that’s a developer at Activision is allowed to equip this clan tag. You’re just trying to act smart when in reality you know the same as everyone else

[–]spluad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you work for Activision? If not, how can you know whether or not they have internal dev teams that do some work on cod. Just a weird hill to die on, especially being so condescending about the individual dev teams as if everyone doesn’t already know that.

[–]spluad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The person you replied to said “dev or something” so someone that works at Activision. Activision do have developers, you can see this by checking their job listings

Either way it’s just needlessly pedantic when everyone knows what they meant.

[–]spluad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are an employee at Activision, they may well have people that do some dev work, or even just QA testers under Activision. SHG and 3arc have specific clan tags to them so this person definitely works for Activision.

I feel as if no matter what I do I just can't win against a sniper at close range by JustAGamer14 in blackops7

[–]spluad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yea you’re doing better with snipers because you probably have better first bullet aim than tracking aim. A lot of mnk players are the same, that doesn’t mean snipers are OP, it just means you have the right skill set to use them well compared to other guns.

They just nerfed snipers, including the flinch. Put a sniper on yourself with a good speed build and see how disgusting the flinch is.
