...of a friend, of a friend.. Oh flakk it, does anyone know how to research hacking? Especially for financial gain, by uh... stealing criminal's money?

Moreover, crime syndicates, like the mafia, cartels, and triads? I'd like to know how it's been done in the past for uh..... a project.... Yeah, we'll go with that.

You know this is bound to be locked in about 2 minutes, right?

I don't think DakkaDakka endorses illegal activity.

By not asking such stupid questions on a forum.

**Mattman154**

This isn't even funny

Also, install Gentoo

Seems legit.

**Dreadclaw69**

Absolutely, phone up your local Police Department with your request. I'm sure they will have plenty to say to you.

I say let him try it. It'll be hilarious when he winds up in a river somewhere, weighted down.

Seriously: If you have to come on a wargaming forum to ask for hacking tips to help you in your quest to steal money from 'the mafia', you probably shouldn't be trying to do it in the first place. To be honest, you sound like a rather pathetic fantasist.

**DemetriDominov**

I'm asking for a port to research it. It's serious because it brings up an interesting debate on morality and the law - after all, the Judicial Department (especially the FBI) uses those they catch to help find others... so, really what's bad about stealing money from those who would do harm with it even if it's a "pathetic fantasy?"

It sounds kind of dangerous if the mob finds out.

**Mattman154**

Oh god.. Are.. you serious?

**DemetriDominov**

Well isn't it the point of a hacker to not be found?

**Albatross**

And you think the best way to achieve this is to come onto a forum like this and announce your intentions openly?

**Cheesecat**

Also why would you think a site with a large war gaming demographic be into hacking?

**Albatross**

Moar nerds?

**Mattman154**

Because clearly you can just read a guide and be stealing money in minutes!
