I had a hilarious social engineering adventure today that I just have to share. So I called this company pretending to be a pizza delivery woman, complete with cheesy accent and all (pun intended). I said I had a pizza for them and the guy was confused because they hadn’t ordered any. Then I claimed it was for a surprise pizza party from their boss. Long story short, after 15 minutes of back-and-forth, the guy gave me the access code to their front door. 
Who knew being a pizza gal could be so effective! Anyone else have hilarious hacks or pranks they’ve pulled off recently?
lol, that’s awesome! I once convinced someone I was an intern at their company and I’d lost my access badge. They gave me a temporary badge that doesn’t expire. People fall for the dumbest stuff! 
@luciafer that’s brilliant! I remember pretending to be a janitor who had found a USB stick and wanted to “return it”. They plugged it into their system to check the “contents” and got a lovely little surprise.
I tried acting like a florist delivering flowers once. Told them I had to add a “thank you note” for verification. Managed to get their boss’ email and phone number. Human nature, right? Who doesn’t like flowers? 
Alright, you jokers! But seriously, it’s amazing how often the most absurd stories work.
@luciafer pizza delivery? That’s legendary! I’m more into the psychological aspect. Once convinced a sysadmin that his PC had malware from downloading “suspicious cat videos”. Played on his paranoia and he gave up his remote access credentials. 
Man, these stories are inspiring! As the newbie here, I’ll have to try out the “pizza delivery” routine. Got any tips to sell it better?
