[QUOTE="tim one, post: 568071, member: 25920"] Thank you so much [USER=54286]@Wave[/USER] for this brilliant post!! :) And thanks also for having mentioned me (the honeypot letter is so well made that for a moment even I believed in that one :D) Well, there are no patches for human stupidity, a system can be 100% secure, but as long as it will be managed by a human, someone else can work around by targeting the person. “The weak link in the chain of security is the user”: on this point, a large part of social engineering is based.
